Best Review on Omega J8005 Single Gear Commercial Masticating
I just bought the omega 8005. I am very impressed with this unit. I have been juicing the last 13 years and this is the fourth juicer I have used. The auger, end cap and hopper are all quality. The fittings are secure and quality. The unit looks good. It is quiet. It leaves very little mess. I don't have to worry about one drip hitting the base motor. Cleanup is quick. I bought it to juice wheatgrass which it does a fine with grass. The supplied plunger does work, but using a carrot to push the wheatgrass down the opening is much easier and twice as fast. The 10 year warranty is phenomenal on all parts and labor.
I actually use my old centrifugal juicer to juice a glass of carrot juice, and the omega to juice wheatgrass and leafy greens. I believe in using two different tools for two different purposes. If I were only going to juice hard apples and carrots, I would not get this juicer because it would take too long to extract the juice from these. I would get a centrifugal juicer. But a centrifugal juicer cannot do what this omega can do, namely spinach, parsley and wheatgrass.

six years later....
I have been using it daily. No troubles. No problems. Still working as it did when I bought it. It's been a good purchase.
I'm not looking for those juicers that extract the juice and throw away the rest of the vegetable. I once saw a juicer that was able to grind the entire vegetable, without wasting anything (but I didn't catch the name of the juicer). Anyways, does anyone know of a good vegetable juicer I can buy that will actually grind the whole vegetable? The cheaper the better (although I know they can be pricey sometimes). Thanks!
