Reviewers agree the Omega 4000 is a sturdy, well-engineered and efficient juicer. Several owners say the Omega 4000 is quieter than other juicers in its class. However, some wish that the juicer was more stylish, as befits its relatively high price tag. What's worse, professional and consumer reviewers alike find the feed chute too small.
The most recent review of the Omega 4000 appeared in Food & Wine magazine. The Wall Street Journal published an excellent, if dated, review of this juicer as well. To determine how the Omega 4000 performs over time, we turned to Amazon.com and Epinions.com. We also read reviews of this juicer at specialty juicer retailers, including Vitality Plus.

Food & Wine editors do not say exactly how many models they tested, but the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Pro 67560H is the top pick, with the Omega 4000 a close second. It "juices fruit so completely that there's no pulp left on the blade."

In this older five-juicer review, Charles Passy finds that none of the tested juicers were perfect. The Omega 4000 is "solid," but its feed chute is too small.

In about two dozen reviews, the Omega 4000 earns four stars (out of five). Owners say that the chute is a little small, and pulp comes out damp, but many are very happy with this juicer's performance.

This retail website also conducts some testing on eight juice extractors, including the Omega 4000. The Omega 4000's output with carrots is "fair," while it fared poorly with spinach (the pulp was wet, indicating less-than-full juice extraction).

This article discusses the process of, and recipes for, fasting. The author recommends the Omega 4000 for beginners. The comparison chart states that this juicer "will juice most water dense fruits, root vegetables like beets and carrots, and leafy greens. Does not juice greens as well" as other juicers, such as the Green Star models.
