I love this juicer.
Date of Review: May 17, 2006
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this juicer to anyone who wants a high quality juicer with multiple functions for a good price.
I recently bought the Omega 8005 after owning a jr. juicer for awhile. While shopping for juicers, I wanted a juicer that would juice wheatgrass, be easy to clean, be sturdy enough for a juice fast, and have a low RPM.
Since owning the Omega 8005, I have been very impressed with how easy it is to assemble and disassemble, although there was no diagram to explain what the different parts are named, just words that explained how to put it together. I like the high nutrition quality of the juice from the low RMPs. I also like the juice filter that comes with it. I'm impressed with the dryness of the pulp, which I use for my composter. Although the fruit pulp isn't completely dry, it's better than the pulp from the jr. juicer. I especially like how easy it is to clean. Even though one of the cons is that it clogs with certain fruits (esp. tomatoes, pineapples, strawberries), because it's so easy to disassemble and clean, you can do this very quickly and continue with your juicing.
I haven't gotten the chance to try the features other than juicing, but I'm looking forward to making my own salsa, peanut butter, and pasta!
