Omega 8003/8005 Juicer

Pros
  • Can make pasta and nut butter
  • Quiet
  • Dry pulp
  • Excellent for leafy vegetables and grasses
  • Stainless-steel housing
Cons
  • Slow
  • Small chute
  • Beets and carrots can stain
  • Pulpy juice
  • Manual sometimes unclear

Reviewers agree that the Omega 8003 (in white) and 8005 (in chrome and black) are the most versatile juicers in their price range. In addition to juicing fruit, vegetables and wheat grasses, reviewers say the Omega juicer can be used to make butters, pasta and baby food. Experts say that masticating juicers like the Omega 8003/8005 take longer to produce juice than the centrifugal ejection juicers like the Breville Juice Fountain Elite 800JEXL (*Est. $300), but because it performs so many other tasks, the Omega 8003/8005 is ultimately more versatile.

The Omega 8003/8005 has garnered more than 50 reviews at Amazon.com, and more than 10 at Epinions.com.

1. Amazon.com

More than 50 owners have posted reviews of the Omega 8003/8005 to Amazon.com. Owners say it's a superb performer, but if you plan to juice only fruit, it's probably overkill. Owners note that this is an excellent juicer for wheat grass and leafy greens.
