Not cheap by any means, the Omega VRT350HD juicer is an investment in your health. If you’ve never purchased a juice extractor before then this vertical masticator may be a perfect choice. The reasons are simple: it combines the two juicers you are likely to buy over the next few years. As new juice enthusiasts usually start out with a centrifugal juicer then later add a masticator, the Omega is the best blend of both.
Why would you need two juicers anyway? Two words: leafy greens. Centrifugal juicers are excellent at hard fruits and vegetables like carrots and apples but struggle with lettuces like kale and spinach. The juice in the leaf is locked up in the fragile leaf and at high speeds does not extract properly. The masticating juicer’s powerful, slow motor is better suited for delicate greens. This is why we believe combining the efficiency of a centrifugal juicer with the slow grind of a masticator makes the Omega VRT350HD juicer the perfect first choice.
