Omega-J8006HDS-Main-1Omega J8006HDS

Armed with a slow but powerful 200W-motor, the Omega J8006HDS Masticating Juicer affords you a wholesome juice full of flavor and vital nutrients. We love the robust Ultem auger and adjustable end cap that makes this machine sufficiently versatile to create healthy juices, make pasta, and grind spices and hard ingredients like nuts and coffee beans. This juicer has an external pulp ejection system that allows you to discard the juicing waste without disassembling its components.

Construction and Design

Armed with a horizontal design, the Omega J8006HDS features a short, lengthy frame finished with black and silver, which gives it a magnificent appearance. We really like the generous 15-year warranty that indicates the high-quality construction of this juicer. However, this warranty is limited to one year for commercial users and buyers outside Canada and the USA.

Omega-J8006HDS-Main

  •  Height: 14.5 Inches
  • Width: 6.5 Inches
  •  Length: 15.5 Inches
  • Weight: 13 Pounds

The Omega J8006HDS Masticating Juicer features short protracted stature, which means that it will require significant space on your kitchen counter. Weighing a mere 13 pounds, we can confidently tell you that moving your juicing machine won’t be much of a hassle.

Power and Performance

Armed with a 200W motor, the Omega J8006HDS Juicer boasts sufficient power to liquidize stubborn ingredients like roots, herbs, nuts, coffee beans, and almonds. The motor spins the auger with a low speed of 80RPM, squeezing your ingredients slowly to prevent heat and froth buildup. We appreciate the auger’s Ultem material that makes it unbreakable and wear-resistant despite the constant grinding and squashing of tough produce.

Juice Quality and Yield

The Omega J8006HDS has a powerful motor that spins the auger at a gradual pace of 80RPM, facilitating the gentle extraction of juice without compromising the original flavor and nutrient quality of your ingredients.

  • The slow extraction also prevents heat buildup, allowing your juice to last for 72 hours without going bad. You, however, need to keep the extract refrigerated in an air-tight container.
  • The auger features a slim, winged back and a large front, which affords it a dual-stage juice extraction capacity. Your ingredients are chopped in the first stage and squeezed in the second phase, facilitating maximum juice output.
  • When it comes to versatility, this juicer packs a punch; it comes with different end caps that allow you to make nut butter, grind coffee beans, mince herbs, process sorbet, and create pasta.
  • We appreciate the five settings on the juicer’s end caps, which allow you to customize your juicing experience. The tighter setting is perfect for soft ingredients like citrus, while the loose setting is ideal for the likes of wheatgrass.
  • Thanks to the detachable strainer, you can enjoy a pulp-free juice with a smooth consistency

Setup and Usability

Assembling the Omega J8006HDS is pretty easy; it comes with only five components requiring assembly. These parts include the drum, auger, juice screen, adjustable end cap, and hopper. This juicer comes with a single switch button that makes its operation simple.

  • We also love the reverse function that comes in handy in freeing the auger in the event of an obstruction.
  • Thanks to the complementary end caps, we consider this juicer a very versatile unit. It supports multiple non-juicing functions, including grinding coffee, making pasta, and creating frozen desserts.
  • We appreciate the external pulp-ejection system that supports continuous juicing; you don’t need to constantly halt the extraction process to get rid of the pulp.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Thanks to the safe dishwasher parts, cleaning the Omega J8006HDS Masticating Juicer is very easy and will take you less than five minutes. If you want to sterilize your juicer, you may place its components in warm water and add dishwashing soap or two-three pinches of baking soda. Let them stay immersed for about 30 minutes before scrubbing them with the complimentary brush. Do not immerse the motor housing; instead, wipe it down with a damp cloth.

Key Takeaway

Thanks to the five-setting juicing end caps, the Omega J8006HDS is the ideal unit for people looking to customize the extraction process. The variable non-juicing end caps essentially allow this juicer to moonlight as a food processor. We admire the dual-stage auger and a robust filter, both of which work together to facilitate maximum juice yield.

We love the crafty combination of black and silver that gives it a classy and neutral appearance. This juicer comes with a 15-year warranty covering parts and labor. The warranty is only valid when the unit is used in Canada and the US for domestic application. Commercial users and users outside the two countries get a one-year warranty.

Omega-VSJ843QS-Main

  • Height: 15.51 Inches
  • Width: 6.97 Inches
  • Length: 15.47 Inches
  • Weight: 11.5 Pounds

Despite the vertical design, the Omega VSJ843QS Masticating Juicer comes with a short chassis that allows it to fit snugly in standard kitchen cabinets. It also boasts a smaller footprint than its horizontal counterparts. This juicer’s lightweight design supports easy portability when positioning and moving your unit between the counter and cabinets.

Power and Performance

As an upright juice extractor, the Omega VSJ843QS adopts a large dual-stage Ultem auger that stays erect. This design allows the auger to squash your ingredients with ease and forces them down towards the part that squeezes them against a stainless steel micro-mesh filter.

  • This juicer boasts a 150W-motor that spins the auger with a maximum speed of 43RPM, which is fast enough to crush your ingredients and sufficiently slow to avoid causing heating and oxidation
  • Due to the low operation rate, making juice in the morning or the middle of the night won’t be a noisy affair; all you can hear is a low basal hum
  • The AWS system also comes in handy in unclogging the auger to facilitate continuous juicing

Omega-VSJ843QS-Juicing

Juice Quality and Yield

Adopting the Slow Squeezing Technology to deliver 43RPM, the Omega VSJ843QS Masticating Juicer extracts the juice from your ingredients very slowly. This allows it to handle the most delicate of ingredients, including leafy greens and mushy fruits.

  • The slow masticating technology also gives you a flavorful beverage loaded with nutrients, complete with your ingredients’ original color
  • We love the dual-stage auger that pulverizes your produce in two stages for enhanced effectiveness. The first stage is tasked with chopping the ingredients while the second phase squeezes them against the mesh. This method ensures maximum juice yield while leaving the pulp dry and saving you a few dollars on grocery bills.
  • We highly admire the BPA-free food contact components, which ensure that your beverage won’t come into contact with toxic chemicals
  • The slow extraction process affords the juice an extended shelf-life; you can store your beverage for a maximum duration of 72 hours under refrigeration
  • We appreciate the micro-mesh filter that prevents the pulp from getting into your extract, affording you a smooth refreshment
  • Thanks to the complementary nozzle cap, you can create cocktails from your favorite fruits or veggies with this juicer

  • This juicer comes with a single switch button that you can click to select either forward or reverse direction. The latter course comes in handy in unclogging the auger.
  • We appreciate the Automatic Wiping System that removes the pulp from the filter to prevent it from clogging, which facilitates continuous juicing
  • This juicer is also self-feeding, meaning that you don’t have to push your ingredients unless you’re juicing leafy greens like kales and spinach or mushy fruits like bananas, cucumber, and tomatoes.

Omega-VSJ843QS-Parts

Tip: This juicer comes with a small feeding chute, meaning you need to cut your ingredients into tiny bits. We recommend cutting fibrous ingredients like celery, kale, and Swiss chard into tiny pieces measuring less than an inch lest they wrap around your auger and lead to clogging.

Cleaning and Maintenance

  • Every aspect of the Omega VSJ843QS is designed to make the cleaning process manageable. The feeding chute, auger, strainer, silicone wiper blade, as well as juice and pulp bowls are dishwasher safe. They also come off the unit effortlessly.
  • The AWS feature simplifies the cleanup process significantly; it automatically removes the juicing remnants and pulp from the unit’s inner components. All you need to do is close the spout, pour some water into the juicer, and allow the appliance to run for a few minutes before draining the liquid into a sink.
  • Also, this juicer comes with a complimentary cleaning brush that comes in handy in scrubbing the mesh filter. The opposite end of the brush facilitates effortless scooping of the pulp from the unit’s crevices.

Key Takeaway

The Omega VSJ843QS is the perfect unit for juicing enthusiasts who need a dependable juice extractor, thanks to its fifteen-year warranty that guarantees long-term effectiveness. We appreciate the reverse function and the automatic wiping system that facilitate a smooth juicing process by constantly freeing the auger and unclogging the filter. Thanks to the vertical design that reduces this juicer’s footprint, you stand to enjoy wholesome juices without sacrificing a significant space on your countertop.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Designed with usability in mind, the Omega H3000D comes with detachable dishwasher safe components that cut down on your cleaning time significantly. We recommend cleaning the filters with the complimentary brush immediately after juicing to prevent the pulp from drying up and getting stuck into the nooks and crannies. Also, use soft, damp clothing to wipe down the unit’s exterior lest the juice streaks and stains makes this juicer an eyesore.

Key Takeaway

With two different filters, the Omega H3000D Juicer is the ultimate juice extractor for households where members prefer different juice consistencies. We appreciate the three-stage auger that facilitates maximum juice yield and a dry pulp. This juicer also features a relatively high-speed setting that enables you to create juice on the go without compromising quality.

This feature allows you to add water into the juicer and run the unit like a standard juicing procedure. With the silicone wiper blades’ assistance, the juicer will clean itself from the inside, allowing you to create different juice blends without stopping to clean the unit.

We really like the two juicing strainers that gives users the freedom to control the amount of pulp in their juice. This juicer is also perfect for people who create different juices thanks to its auto cleaning feature that rinses the remnants without detaching the unit.

The Bottom Line

In our informed opinion, Omega juicers represent a breakthrough in the juicing industry; this brand has been producing the most efficient and reliable juicers since 1985. Whether you’re looking to purchase a centrifugal or masticating juicer, Omega has something for you. The above units are engineered with superior technology to ensure optimal production of the highest quality juice from your favorite ingredients.

Despite the different features in our selected juicer models, these juice extractors have a few things in common. They all squeeze and pulverize the produce slowly with minimal heat exposure and oxidation. The slow masticating process guarantees optimal retention of enzymes and antioxidants for maximum health benefits. Reduced oxidation results in a longer shelf life; usually, you can preserve your extract in the fridge for up to 72 hours. Slow masticators also operate unobtrusively, way quieter than their high-speed centrifugal counterparts.

When choosing a suitable Omega juicer, we understand that you’re probably confused given the different price points and options. But don’t worry; we have done all the legwork for you. We don’t want you to end up with an appliance that gets jammed, one whose motor overheats, or a unit whose parts are challenging to remove or clean.

Some of the factors you should consider include the ease of cleanup. We recommend choosing a dishwasher-safe juicer that you can maintain with a quick rinse and reassemble with a few short steps. A unit with an auto-clean system will make your cleanup chore even more manageable. We also found horizontal juicers easier to clean during our evaluation, mainly attributable to their relatively small screen filters.

Also, consider your prospective juicer’s footprint; your unit should be sufficiently compact to take up minimal space on your countertop and fit snugly in your conventional cabinets. If counter space is a massive problem for you, we recommend vertical juicers, which generally boast a smaller footprint, but they can be pretty tall. Homeowners whose kitchen cabinets hang just above their countertops should consider horizontal juicers.

More importantly, select a juicer that guarantees optimal juice yield and produces a dry pulp. Don’t forget to look into the juicer’s ability to deal with leafy greens. A versatile juicer with special attachments will also come in handy when looking to grind the coffee, make sorbets, mince herbs, or even create frozen desserts. Vertical juicers are typically easier to use, faster and boast a higher juice yield than their horizontal counterparts.
