The new Omega Juicer (Omega Vert)

Hi everyone,
I'm just about to buy a juicer and had actually already decided on the Omega 8006, when I saw that Omega recently introduced a new juicer, the Omega Vert.
advantages of Omega 8006 over Omega Vert are:
- Faster Clean-Up
- Multifunctional: You can make butters, pasta, etc, which you cannot with the Vert
- Time-Tested
advantages of the Vert over the 8006:
- Higher Yield
- The juicing process is faster
- Produce doesn't have to be cut into as small pieces as in the case of 8006
Here's a video comparing those 2 juicers:

The Omega 8006 is definitely one of the best juicers around and has been for a long time. - So basically one cannot go wrong with the 8006. However the Omega Vert is the most recent model and one could think that that's why it should be better.
Let me/us know, what you think!
Healthy greetings,
Solmare

The video you linked to shows the Omega 8006 vs. Hurom Juicer. Here is the New Omega Vert VRT330.
Here it shows the two Omegas together but only shows the new Vert working.
This looks like a great juicer if all you want to do is juice. Here is a link that has all the info on the VRT330.

I'm curious to see what Uny thinks of the VRT vs. the 8006.

This is a reply to # 1,486,501I've just done a VERY quick check, since this obviously appears to be a centrifugal juicer. And it is.
Apparently it runs slower than a typical centrifugal juicer (which is good - less heat = less killing of enzymes), but the spinning action also kills enzymes (enzymes = one of the main reasons for juicing).
And typical centrifugal juicers have FAR less yield "per pound of produce" and they are EXTREMELY ineffective for extracting the minerals/vitamins from the pulp. (Edit - I realize this juicer also somehow masticates, which would increase yield).
Until more studies & comparisons are published (or we all have time to do more research on what is already published), I would not recommend this juicer.
Besides, why would want to spent over $100 more for this than an Omega 8003/8005/8006, and not be able to make nut-butters, extrude pasta and all the other wonderful options?
Btw, I can break down, rinse/clean and reassemble my Omega 8005 in less than 60 seconds.

...after watching those videos (thanks Willowley!!!), this may not technically be 'centrifugal' at all - and if it's action doesn't degrade enzymes (and you don't want all the "options") - it might be worth the extra $100 smackers.
Hmmmm, if it yields HIGHER than the 8003/05/06, has a bigger feed with barely no "pushing", and doesn't degrade the enzymes - that'd be sweet, for sure.
Uny-

This is a reply to # 1,486,531I looked and couldn't find where it said it was a centrifugal juicer. It does say this:
"Higher yields - Based on our testing, this juicer yields more juice than a comparable centrifugal ejection juicer."
Which could be taken to mean that it is a centrifugal but it doesn't come right out and say it is and I was thinking if it was they would say it was. But then I don't know anything about a juicer, I've got to buy one and this looked good to me but I don't want to get it if its the wrong thing.

This is a reply to # 1,486,531If it was a centrifugal juicer, I would not consider it. -But since it's the latest model of a single auger juicer made by one of the best companies, I might go for it.

Thanks Solmare.
This looks like the easiest juicer to use I've ever seen and so fast too! I might have to get one too.

This is a reply to # 1,486,501The Hurom juicer and the Omega Vert are basically the same product. - Just different brands. - I forgot to mention that.

LOL, I went to YouTube again and found another video demonstrating the VRT330. This one is very informative about why its so important to juice. This looks like a fantastic juicer, the guy never even has to use the pusher when juicing.
