Re: will this juice wheatgrass? n/m
Interesting video - I figured the VERT would take the prize given all the accolades, but I've always had great results with wheatgrass, spinach, Kale, etc with my 8003.
I've also heard of reliability problems with the VERT which doesn't happen with the 8003. It does a good job with carrots too, it's just slower than the VERT.
For the difference in price between the VERT (especially HD) and the 8003 I'm not sure I'd get the VERT if I had it to do over. Especially knowing it doesn't do that well with the leafy vegetables. Most of my juices have carrot, some kind of leafy vegetable (Kale, Collards, Chard or Spinach) and maybe cucumber or beat. Plus with the 8003 foam isn't an issue at all.
I don't know how the cleanup compares but the 8003 is really fast and easy.
When I was shopping for juicers I was amazed to see on Amazon that the Omega 8003 juicer had hundreds of reviews averaging a full 5 stars. You don't see THAT very often. Oh wait - DQ already ordered his juicer. Like I was saying the 8003 sucks. lol
