Wouldn’t it be great to greet your mornings with healthy and all-natural juices? Start this healthy habit and get an Omega VRT330 Vertical Low Speed Juicer. Enjoy freshly-squeezed oranges or your favorite apple juice with just one push of a button!

Omega VRT330 Vertical Low Speed Juicer Specifications:

Commercial condenser motor (equivalent to 2 HP)
Permanent magnetic motor
Can run up to 80 rpm (peak)
Crushing ribs
Heavy-gauge plastic materials
Stainless steel basket and blades (centrifugal technology)
Metal mesh filters
Auto clean-up
Scrub brush, pusher included
10-year full warranty

Quality
The Omega VRT330 Vertical Low Speed Juicer boasts of durable and high quality materials like the heavy-duty gauge plastic as casing. And when you delve further, you’ll see a stainless steel basket, blades and metal mesh filter to give you superior juicing ability.

Technology
One excellent feature with this juicer is the low speed technology. Contrary to notions of many that faster juicers give best juices, this fountain of juice only operates up to 80 rpms maximum.

The secret? Low rpm-juicers are most likely to give you the healthiest and purest juices. High-speed juicers tend to overheat your fruits and vegetables, thus destroying the nutritional components with it.

Ease of Use
For that refreshing orange juice, apple juice, carrot juice and several others that your could think of, this juicer is the one for you. Aside from being able to take on hard fruits and vegetables like carrots, it also is capable of juicing your wheatgrass and other fine veggies.

Though the package contains a pusher for added comfort, there’s no need to use it. Really.

Style
Housed in a neat white color, the Omega VRT330 Vertical Low Speed Juicer easily stands out among other juicers. It is designed so as to have an air of class and elegance to complement any kitchen design. Safekeeping is also not a problem as it can be left on the countertop without you having to worry about messing up or cluttering your kitchen.

Noise
The low-speed technology is also the reason why this juicer works quietly. It’s rather surprising to find a juicer which is powerful yet virtually noise-free.

Omega VRT330 Vertical Low Speed Juicer At A Glance…

Pros:

Durable and high quality materials
Low speed technology at 80 rpm maximum allows you to have pure and healthy juice
Can work with hard fruits and vegetables and can also work with finer ones
Comes in a white hue so it does not stand out in any kitchen
Works quietly

Cons:

Quite on the expensive side

The Omega VRT330 Vertical Low Speed Juicer has all the features anyone would hope for. From the monster motor up to the well-designed features like user-friendly functions, easy clean up because of the auto-clean feature and quiet operation, this juicer has it all. Yes, it’s quite pricey (which is the only con with all the excellent features), but the price tag is all worth it!

Omega 9000 Juicer Review

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 23:03:18 +0000

The Omega 9000 Juicer is based on the Omega 1000 Juicer. The difference between the two is that Omega 9000 has a stainless steel top and carries a 15 year warranty.

Omega 9000 Specifications:

Dimensions: 12.6 x 10.2 x 10.1 inches
Weight: 11 lbs.
Color: White with Stainless Steel
Warranty: 15 years

Omega 9000 Juicer has 1/3 Horsepower 3600-Rpm General Electric Induction Motor which is the quietest motor among these style of juicers. These brushless motors have very few moving parts that rub together which make them very dependable.

The Omega 9000 Juicer can be used with optional non-bleached cellulose fiber filters. These filters will give you a true pulp free juice and let you clean up in seconds. If the filters are not used, the clean up is still easy, but takes a little more time. There will also be some pulp in the juice if the filters are not used, but the same amount as most other juicers.

The stainless parts are comprised of a heavy gauge Surgical Stainless Steel. All of the Stainless parts are either polished or sandblasted to make the unit look nice and at the same time make it easy to clean. The Stainless Steel Blade efficiently chews up fruits and vegetables without wearing down. When you hold the blade you’ll appreciate its weight knowing how durable it will be. The blade has a plastic ring on the outer edge of its underside that has little feet. These feet help the blade float. The floating of the blade will let the motor keep up its Rpm’s while you push down on your fruit or vegetable. This is but one more reason why this juicer has very little vibration.

The chute of this juicer is large enough to accommodate large pieces of fruits and vegetable. The larger chutes of other juicers normally slow down the motor when too large of an item is pushed down.

Omega 9000 at a glance…

Pros:

Stylish and sturdy
Quiet motor
15 yr warranty
Easy to clean
Large chute
Extracts 30% more juice than other juicers

Expensive
