The Omega VSJ843QS Vertical Slow Masticating Juicer is the perfect choice for anyone looking for an easy-to-assemble, easy-to-maintain juicer with powerful blending capabilities. This juicer features a compact design, an automatic pulp ejection system, and a 150-watt motor that rotates at 43 revolutions per minute. With its superior build quality and continuous fresh fruit and vegetable juice production, the Omega VSJ843QS is one of the best Juicers on the market.Paul: This juicer does an excellent job of extracting juice leaving behind a crumbly moist product that we use for compost. It is extremely quiet. Cleaning is not easy but neither is juicing. The hopper got stuck on my unit. I contacted support on Amazon and got amicable help and immediate replacement. That is great customer service which is rare now.

cwmcgarry: I'm a fan of the Omega brand, having started juicing back in 2013 and settled into the 8004, which has been my tried tested and true appliance. I bought into the higher yield claims of the VSJ843QR and wasn't disappointed with the amount of juice I've made with the same amount of produce going in.
Only complaint is the number of times this vertical unit jams. Prep really is the key. The harder (beets) or stringier (celery, kale) the produce is, the smaller I recommend you chop down to before running them through.
For the price point of $399USD, I am not disappointed. But I am not satisfied; I will be upgrading to another machine in future. For the average user, who wants a versatile machine for a fair market value, this juicer is a good machine. If I had my time back, I might have stuck with my 8004 having already bought it.

JennyJenny: My last juicer was a centrifugal juicer and I bought this juicer because wanted to extract “more” from the fruits and veggies (especially with the higher prices for produce). Setup was weird at first but you get used to it quickly.
Juice quality is excellent and the leftover pulp is much drier than my centrifugal juicer. The Omega machine is also quieter. I like to make large batch of juice for the household and this machine handles longer juicing sessions well. Clean up is a breeze.
The only negatives…The rubber flaps in the machine are my only worry. They are tricky to put back into place and I worry they may rip one day (hopefully not). I haven’t checked if Omega sells those parts and hope they do.
I would happily purchase another Omega juicer.

Amazon Customer: Well I bought this machine Dec and got it with 6 days of ordering this machine. The first machine I got was really nice quality and quiet very beautiful. After using it for 4 days it stop juicing my fruits and vegetables. So I contacted Amazon and they send me a new one. The first thing I notice when I pick it up it was lighter then the first machine I got The second machine they send me makes noise, it moves when you're juicing. the quality of the machine looks cheap especially the containers I was very disappointed of the second machine they send to me. There are two quality on the market I want to believe the second unit I got is light in colour. The first machine which I believe is actually the high end one is darker in colour and don't leave stain like temeric or water stain after washing them . I will definitely recommend this machine because with the minor issues it's still doing an amazing job juicing my fruit and vegetables. I am planning on buying another machine and hope I get the good quality one that I got the first time around. It's suck to spend that kind of money on a machine and the quality is not up to that standard.

James A.: I have been an Omega juicer owner and user for almost 30 years. In the 90's I was researching the value of juicing and I conducted a thorough research on juicers. As a result I purchased an Omega centrifugal juicer. This lasted for almost 25 years (with regular juicing) and I only discarded it as the rubber feet were becoming worn (after 2 decades of use) and there was some vibration.
I then went to a much cheaper pulp ejecting juicer by another brand. Money wasted ... as there was more juice in the ejected pulp than what was in the cup. Discarded this product.
Again I conducted a detailed research (on various brands, types and models) and the Omega VSJ843QS came out on top for my purposes and the cost I felt justified in spending on a juicer. I have had this juicer for approx. 4 weeks and I am very, very, very happy with the quality of the product and the quality of the juice (no identifiable pulp settling at the bottom of the cup). Also, cleanup is a breeze. The overall performance and juice quality far exceed my original expectation. I am amazed at the engineering which went into this juicer.
This purchase is an investment in my family's health and so I...

MegaMega: **Update**
The juicer is still as awesome as when we first began juicing with it. No problems out of it at all. I’ve recently started making nut milks and oat milk in my juicer and it has been amazing. Cow’s Milk bothers my stomach so I need alternatives. The nut and oat milks from the store can be terribly expensive, so I watched a few videos on YouTube on how to make nut milk and oat milk with my juicer and it worked like a charm. The amount of milk I can make for the price I spend on the oats or nuts that I use is great. This juicer has paid for itself many times over and we’ve only had it for just under a year. Still very satisfied.

This juicer is amazing! Wow! The pics I’ve submitted from this review is when I first started using it. But since those pics, I’ve juiced a ton of fruits and veggies. The fruit and veggie in the pic is kale, apples and ginger.
Let me start by saying I’m no expert in juicing. I’m new to this juicing life but I feel really good about my purchase. I did extensive research and decided I wanted a masticating juicer as opposed to a centrifugal one. Once I figured that out I did more research...

Arla M: We replaced an old centrifugal Braun juicer with this. This is way quieter. Easy to set up and dismantle. Cleaning seems alright. The cleaning brush it came with seems a bit big to fit in some places and the screen takes a little to get clean, but overall not too bad. I'm not sure if there is less pulp, (I might be juicing more than I did with my old one) but the pulp is definitely drier. I can run way more through and don't have to clean out screen like my old juicer. There is no comparison to my old one, this handles peeled lemon, lime and ginger and leafy greens no problem, doesn't even sound like its working real hard. Juice is not as foamy as old juicer, but there is still quite a bit of pulp in the juice, more than I was expecting, not bad, just wasn't expecting that. When you pull apart to clean you need to look up inside the masticating part as it is jammed with pulp. I love the juice flap, allows you to pour while still working, but the little flaps that clip flap on, have broke off with in 2 weeks of owning. It still works, in that it holds juice back, you just have to be careful when you flip it up, you do it carefully otherwise the flap comes off. They are warrantying...

Big Wave Dave: UPDATE 3.15.2017
I should have updated this post sooner. I was able to send the Juicer back to Omega directly and they took care of replacing it ASAP. Excellent customer service, great and fast response time. The replacement blender has worked flawlessly since we received it back in October, so about 5 1/2 months now. Omega can't be beat for customer service and responsiveness, this should give anyone the confidence to buy their products. Had I read through the warranty I would have seen the company backs up their products for over ten years. I doubt I will still be using my juicer that long - hoping that technology moves better solutions forward by then!
UPDATE 8.8.2016 Two months after purchase
I have purchased hundreds of items from Amazon over the past couple of years and never wirte reviews. I was pretty happy with the initial performance of the Omega VERT slow juicer and so busted out a quick raving 5 star review. Now only two months later the juicer is broken and in a box, never to be used again, the seller only had a 30 day warranty. If you plan on using a juicer with any frequency, plan on buying another juicer and not from this seller. I had high hopes for...
