Omega VRT350 Heavy Duty Dual-Stage Vertical Single Auger Low Speed Juicer Silver

Very happy with the results. Bought on a friend's recommendation. It extracts a lot of juice. I find it easy to take apart and clean. You need to clean right after juicing as then it is an easy task, instead of leaving it as the fruit pieces get dried and stuck otherwise. Would recommend to anyone who wants to juice regularly.

Great product. Looks and feels very sturdy. My wife absolutely loves it.

I was completely satisfied with the performance of this product, its was easy to use and the pulp is dry, which means all the goodness is going into the juice. I do not have a very good grip on my hands anymore, I therefore found it hard to dismantle this at times. Green Power have refunded me in full due to this problem. Other than this I was perfectly happy and would have no problem in recommending this product to anyone wanting to start juicing. There are so many on the market who leave the pulp extremely wet, therefore the yield is never as good,

Jams all the time. Cleaning is hell. Difficult to reassemble every time.

The juicer is quiet and does an effective job on carrots, apples, beets and apples. Doesn't handle seeds or stringy things, such as ginger and many greens, very well. Despite the promises the machine is not easy to clean. From start to finish, juicing up four or five items into a couple of good glasses, and then cleaning, takes about 45 minutes. But what does one expect? For me it's worth the money.

Despues de estar leyendo reviews de extractores me decidi por este modelo y no me equivoque. Este es mi primer extractor de "cold press" y estoy sorprendida de su efectividad, extrae mayor cantidad de jugo, es silencioso y no es tardado; y de la limpieza del mismo es muy sencillo y practico.

I had them too, I wondered never juicing before if I should spend as much as Omega requires romstepminto the Vrt. Would it serve my juicing needs? I did all the hours of research most modern consumers do, and narrowed it down to the VRT 350, the 8006, and the Green Power Kempo. What I wanted was a great juicer with longevity that I could throw a variety of produce at. I don't care for making my own nut butters or sorbets, I just wanted incredible juice. I plan on doing about 60% greens and veggies, and the rest fruit. Does the VRT deliver? A resounding YES! Better than you would believe, there hasn't been a produce item yet that it hasn't squeezed the life out of into tasty juice. We've been running the juice gauntlet ever since it arrived a few days ago, spinach, carrots, celery, cucumber, pineapple, oranges, apples, ginger, and garlic are just some of what our Vrt has chewed on. It has handled all of it from the soft fruits to the leafy spinach it works like a champ. I'm sure there are a variety of juicers out there that would do the same, but I know I picked the right one for our household. Overall I'm very pleased, and had a friend come over who has a juice fountain centrifugal design and was amazed. Y the quietness, the yield, and the quality. The Omega puts out the best tasting juice you've ever had. Here's some questions I had in the beginning, I'm not sure they are yours but they would've helped me being a new juicer, they are curiosities I didn't see the answer to during my search for juice. 1. Is there a ton of pulp? I saw mixed reviews on this and wasn't sure what to expect, I'm not a huge pulp fan, but I don't hate it unless it overpowers the texture of the entire glass. The VRT comes with a large and small strainer and I've never used anything but the small/fine screen. If you've ever ordered fresh squeezed OJ at a restaurant and know what it's like you can expect less pulp than that. If you bought a store bought juice the VRT produced it would probably say "some pulp." it's not pulp free but it doesn't get in the way either. I've been pouring my juices over ice and I don't even notice the pulp. It lead me to believe that some people want a lack of pulp on the level of something packaged that isn't even juice, like a vitamin water or Gatorade. I was taken aback by the first glass, as it was so smooth I can't figure out what people are complaining about. If you must have a pulp free juice a cone masticating juicer like the 8006 or centrifugal juicer is probably better. personally I think the vrt outs out a rich flavor and a glass that's easy to drink. In short no one I've handed a glass to has mentioned the pulp. 2. Preparation and cleaning time, is it a hassle? Again I say, these can't e serious complaints. I'm a person in a rush like many of us are and taking the minimal time to prepare juice has been beyond easy, let's take cucumber, carrot, celery and spinach. That's one I like, basically I chop the cuke and celery in under a minute, lop off the tops of the carrots, and start stuffing spinach in the thing. There are some great tips on juicing out there, especially by John over at discountjuicers.com --- nothing has ever gotten stuck on me and while I don't feed everything I possibly can into the thing at full speed it chomps through produce very quickly. I simply listen to it chew up the previous item as I toss the next one in, it's really fast though, and I find myself lagging behind the juicer frequently. Cleanup is a snap, see my forest sentence here, there is no complaint, it takes no time at all. One caver is if you are utterly lazy, the parts on the Omega say they cannot be thrown into the dishwasher or it will be damaged. I'm not going to do that anyway with an appliance this pricey. I'll time myself in the future but right now prep and cleanup has to be under 5 minutes it's quicker than making a cup of coffee. 3. Is it worth the admission? That friend I told yo about with the breville, well we had a juice off last night and the difference in quality and yield was astounding, not to mention that we were all laughing at the lawnmower like sound the juice fountain produced. In contrast I was running the vrt on the counter next to our barstools with music playing from an iPhone and conversation going. Then I heard "what are you doing, you can't juice spinach" as I lumped a handful together. The quality of the juice, and what it can juice is simply amazing. It's so consistent in the glass it's like you bought something off the shelf or went to a juice bar, except that it's even better! I do a lot of exercise and meditation and I like to think I know my body, and like most Americans i have too much fat, refined flour, and processed food in my diet. I'm an organic consumer, go to farmers markets, but I don't kid myself, I know what my modern diet is doing to me. The first glass of carrot and spinach changed me into a complete believer, I instantly felt a prolonged sense of energy throughout the day. Already I find myself craving a glass of juice in the middle of the day. If you are struggling with the finance, maybe do what I did and tell your friends you would like an amazon card to put toward better health. This was our Christmas present to my wife and I this year, and for the price of good health it can't be beat. 4. Is juicing expensive? It looks that way, especially if you watch the videos of the vrt where John is using 3 pounds of carrots :) in truth you can build a glass or two for yourself with as little as, 3 carrots, 2 apples, one celery stalk. I was ale to find 3 pound bags of organic apples for $3 at a regular store, carrots for a $1 per pound, and the yield with the VRT is so high you don't need a ton of reduce. The first couple times I actually made far too much following juice recipes online. Besides those bacon and eggs I like so much are equally expensive if not more so. It's only been a few days but I feel like we made the best choice going down the path of slow juicing. I'll try to check back in a fe months and report my progress. Right now I feel the choice should have been a no brainer with a lot less deliberation, but hindsight is always 20/20. It may not be the right juicer for you, but I feel like any juicer in this range is going to be a boon to your health. For me, that is the VRT 350, and I'm utterly pleased I watched all those comparisons on the web and pulled the trigger. Best of luck to you and your juice!

I bought this juicer about a month ago when i decided i wanted to try a juice fast. I probably would have gone for a less expensive brand except i love the 10 year warranty. i could easily spend 3 times as much if i had to replace a juicer every couple of years so that was what i was thinking when i bought it. Once i started using it I knew i had made the right choice. It practically feeds itself, drawing everything down and almost never having to use the plunger. It's quick. It's easy to clean - and i like that i can just run water through it a few times during the day, when i use it and just do one thorough clean at the end of the day... its quicker than doing dishes. My only only complaint is that you get a lot of pulp. I'm the kind of person who doesn't even like pulp in the bought orange juice, so that doesn't work so well for me. But the solution to that is once i've made the juice i run it through my blender - and voila!! super smooth juice with no pulp and soooo flavourful. I know it's one more step but for me it's well worth it. This juicer even feels like quality. I love it and I love seeing it sit on my counter.

My husband and I have been fully immersed in a healthier lifestyle for the last 2 1/2 years. We eat all organic, all whole foods, raw milk, etc, etc - the Weston Price way of living. We got interested in juicing after watching the Gerson Therapy documentary - not because either of us has cancer or any other chronic diseases, but because we want the best health possible . I've been researching juicers for the last year and finally settled on the Omega VRT 350. We looked at the Norwalk and Champion (both recommended by Gerson), the Omega 8000 series, the Green Star and Green Power series, as well as a plethora of others I can't remember. Centrifugal juicers were never in the running for us, as we want to actually preserve and utilize the nutrients in our juices - not just create something sweet to drink. We got our Omega VRT this week and I must say I am quite a fan and really really pleased I went with this juicer. Here are some reasons why I would recommend the VRT: 1) Extremely easy to use, clean, and store. a. The feeding shoot is much wider than I expected it to be, allowing much quicker loading of produce (although I always cut the produce into smaller pieces - that just seems prudent for any kind of machinery...why stress your motor?). b. The only time I have had to push the produce down with the feeder bar was when using leafy greens that don't have enough weight to fall on their own, otherwise I don't have to do a thing to get the produce masticated - it works very very efficiently without any extra effort on my part. c. Cleaning takes just a couple minutes and the juicer is designed to be able to get all nooks and crannies cleaned quite easily with a provided oversized toothbrush. d. It's about the size of a blender, making it much easier to store versus the size of the Omega 8000 series or the Green Star, etc. 2) Quality of the juice and dryness of the leftover compost "meat" of produce. a. With the low rpm, we are told that we are preserving the most nutrients and enzymes possible. This becomes fairly obvious when you actually taste the juice. Even my brother in law - the ultimate skeptic - commented on how rich, thick, and "full" the juice tastes. He even tried tasting the "meat" of the produce that is shot into another bucket after the juice is pressed out. When he tasted that fibrous compost, he was shocked to realize that there was zero flavor in it. The "meat" of the carrot now had no flavor, as all the nutrients, vitamins, and enzymes had been pressed into the juice we just drank (the juice he called "rich, thick and full"). b. Additionally, when you touch that leftover fibrous material (the remains of the vegetable or fruit in the compost bucket), it is dry, indicating that the juicer truly did "press" as much of the juice out of the produce item. 3) Initial health response. a. While it is really too soon to tell for sure, I will say that I have battled insomnia for most of my life. Although it's only been a week, I have consistently slept better in this past week than I have for years. We juice once in the evening after dinner, and each night has been a full night of sleep...five in a row, which is unheard of for me. Maybe there are other causations, but it is interesting to note that this started happening the day we started juicing. b. Additionally, I have always had a rash on my upper arms. Again, it is not gone entirely, but the bumps have reduced in size. Maybe it's the power of the mind, but I do think there is a link to getting such a potent shot of vitamins direct to the blood stream and organs. Overall, I would highly recommend this product to anyone who wants to keep improving their health. Don't waste your money on a centrifugal juicer, rather take a few more months to save the cash and buy a masticating or triturating juicer. You will be quite pleased with the results. I would also recommend you youtube this guy named John with discountjuicers.com. He has a number of youtube videos that really help explain what each juicer does and the pros and cons.
