I started using my Omega Vert juicer on September 1, 2009. Since then, I have used it on a daily basis and it has operated without fail day in and day out. Based on an initial cost of $350, this represents a daily operational cost of 37 cents per day. Since Omega offers a seven year warranty, they will replace or repair the juicer at time time within seven years of purchase. At the end of this time, the daily operational cost will have dropped down to 13.6 cents. Your GE juicer had a daily cost of 71 cents. You may want to consider investing in a quality juicer if you keep up this great habit of yours.
Amazon has it for $323 with free shipping, which is a bit cheaper than on Omega's website.
haha; I almost got the Breville Die-Cast Juice Fountain Elite 299.99 but juiceguy swooped in just in time and talked me into getting the Omega Vert. I should be getting it before the weekend. I'll post updates :)
> What helps greatly in this is the juicer you are using. A masticating juicer will get more yield than a centrifugal juicer especially when it comes to leafy greens - which is what you want in your daily juices - kale, chard, spinach. You can also look them up on WolframAlpha individually to get a good look at what each is estimated to contain. You can use fillers such as celery and cucumber. But most folks base their juices from carrots, apples. I enjoy using peppers (sweet peppers, bell peppers) as they produce a nice yield, second are beets. Try and stick with more greens and less fruits.
Unfortunately the juicer that I bought (Breville BJE510XL), is in fact a centrifugal juicer, not a masticating juicer. After doing some research, I realize that this was a poor decision and will return this one and go for a masticating one. Right now I am looking at the Omega J8005, which is #3 on the TopJuicerMachine.com page recommended in this subreddits sidebar. I am also looking at the juicer that you are currently using Omega VRT330. Besides one being vertical and the other horizontal, I can't seem to find the pros and cons of each one. Reviews wise, the J8005 wins with a 4.5 Star Average (239 reviews) while the VRT330 has 4 Star Average (76 reviews). Price wise, the J8005 also wins @ $252.43 while the VRT330 is $314.99. What are your thoughts on the benefits of each and why the VRT330 is more expensive than the J8005?
