Title: Omega VRT350 Heavy Duty Dual-Stage Vertical Single Auger Low Speed Juicer
Model: VRT350
The Omega Model VRT350 VERT Juicer is a revolutionary product that features the high efficiency of a masticating style juicer in a vertical design. The VERT is designed to be compact, contemporary and productive. A processing speed of 80 rotations per minute prevents the oxidation and degradation of freshly juice product and an oversized spout serves up drinks with style and efficiency.
Ok, I hardly ever write reviews, but this juicer deserves the accolades I'm about to bestow upon it. I'm a heavy juicer, and go in fits and starts with heavy juicing and then no juicing. About a year or two ago I purchased the Omega 8003 juicer and have been happy with it. The main drawbacks to that juicer are its small diameter feed slot and the fact that you really have to "push" stuff along with the pusher. For the last couple of weeks I've been heavily juicing with that machine. My review is really from the perspective of what I'm coming from.
First, I did a lot of research on juicers (again).

It was taking me about 25 minutes to juice... Read more
This is our 4th juicer since 1991, and I grin with amazement every time I use it! The design of this vertical, single-auger juicer is superb. It's as quiet and cool as a juicer can be, while it chews our greens for us. It does a fine job of juicing wheat grass, yet can also handle an over-ripe pineapple, which is what burned out our Breville last month. The daily carrot, apple, celery, kale, spinach, parsley, cilantro and ginger drinks are a breeze, and produce less pulp than I've ever seen from any juicer. I've fed it large amounts of grapefruit, oranges, and lemons, and it handles it all without the slightest problem. I've even made my own almond milk from soaked almonds. The quality of the juice from this machine is as close to Norwalk as you'll get from a juicer that's this convenient in every way. It even pulls the produce into the auger by itself when you drop the pieces into the feeder shoot. I've used a Juiceman Juicer (for which I am forever grateful), a Norwalk Juicer that... Read more
