Summary: Omega Juicer
Comment: Great Juicer. I bought one a few years ago, and then another one a year later as a present. The juicer juices pretty much everything no problem. It says in the manual not to juice brocoli stems as they are too hard and may damage the juicer. You may not want to, but it juices them no problem anyway. Easy to operate, and clean up and dissassembly takes less than a minute, which is one reason i use this juicer more frequently than i have previous juicers.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great!
Comment: This is my second juicer after a Breville juice fountain. I bought this mainly because the Breville didn't juicy leafy greens well, but the Omega does this excellently. Spinach, tomatoes, citrus, carrots all come out well. The pulp comes out very dry so you know not much of your expensive veg is being wasted. It takes maybe 3 minutes to clean up and takes up less counter space than the Breville. So far -- no complaints.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very, very nice
Comment: I researched those juicers for a long time, was not sure if it was worth investing in one since I have a Breville, but I wanted to juice green leaves too, which the Breville doesn't do. It is slower than the centrifugal juicer, you need to cut your veggies in small pieces, but it gives a very nice juice, less froth than a centrifugal juicer. The item itself is very sturdy, I like the stainless steel look as it won't change color. It is easy to clean. I am happy I got it.

Summary: Omega 8005 Juicer - On a scale of 10; a 9!
Comment: We have a very simple philosophy; if an appliance is a pain in the hindparts to clean, you'll dread using it the next time. To that end, we upgraded many of our appliances in our kitchen with both speed, energy efficiency, and easy cleanup priority. Specific to this review, The Omega 8005 Juicer is almost perfect. I paid [...] with a [...] email coupon via [...] November 4, 2008.
On top of our refrigerator is our Hamilton Beach "Big Mouth" Juicer which is a centrifugal juicer strapped to a jet engine and leads you to believe its the kitchen version of a work shop bench grinder as are many high rpm centrifugal juicers. I give my Big Mouth the one point I cannot give the Omega 8005 - speed.
The Omega 8005 is a change of pace, and requires a considerable amount of time with preparation of your fruit and vegetables which must be cut into smaller pieces to accomodate the chute. That said, with the exception of carrots which the Big Mouth does a better job, the pulp is considerably drier, but neither is it completely dry; but nevertheless I was impressed at just how dry it is.
Apples, Oranges, Cranberries, Pomergrante Arils, Ginger,Cucumbers, Ginger - Superior! Carrots - Very good. Pineapple - Good (Unripe to Fresh), Poor (Over-Ripe).
I've yet to use the pasta and nut butter attachments but I have made sorbets and every frozen fruit I've ran through it from frozen strawberries to frozen bananas is superior!
The Omega 8005 has been exactly as many user reviews say it is, and to those who have negative reviews with the exception of patience with prepping the food I have none.
Cleanup is a dream; no other way to put it! I use the juicer twice a day and there is no comparison between this juicer and my Big Mouth, not that the Big Mouth is a that bad if you clean the little devil up right away.
Quality of Juice? I was surprised that there is some foaming but the mesh screen does what its suppose to and does separate foam from the juice. There was no distinction between my Big Mouth and the Omega when it came to carrots, but everything else the comparisons definitely favor the Omega 8005.
I should note, I own the Black and Chrome juicer and am aware there is no difference between the 8003 and 8005 mechanically other than Aesthetics. There's no secret that dark colored appliances are more forgiving to the eyes than white...we have kid who shortcut their kitchen chores!
Price of the juicer is as of November 4, 2008 is [...] minimum at every website I searched. I knew their were two websites that offered email rebates while doing my research. A tip to those who use CraigsList, their were some very, very good deals around the country, but Shipping & Handling made the difference between my purchase and it, very little difference, but if you can find the juicer in your backyard, consider looking there.
I can't give the Juicer a 5 rating - it's not a cheap juicer but neither is it the most expensive and prep isn't for those who are impatient. I do give the juicer a 4.5 if I could, or a 9 on a scale of 10.
The 10 year warranty, ease of cleaning and the style juicer it is and the variety of things you can do with it were the points which gave it the nod.

Summary: A '10' For What I Was Looking For
Comment: My Omega Juicer Model 8005 is an excellent machine, indeed. Not too pricey, easy to wash and functions very well. Just perfect for home use. We are really enjoying the juice and the daily ritual as well.
The juicer was shipped and delivered as promised. Although it arrived with one of the parts cracked, the manufacturer shipped the replacement part in 2 days. I will definitely give a '10' for this product.
