Superlative Performance
The powerful 200 watt motor rotates at a steady 80 RPM to crush juice out of all types of food.
This Omega Compact Juicer is a smaller version of the earlier Omega J8006 juicer, and is only 80% of its size.
Handles All Produce
The Omega Compact Juicer is versatile and can juice hard produce like pears, apples, pineapples, carrots and cucumber just as effectively as softer food like tomatoes or pumpkin.
It can even deal with stringy vegetables like asparagus and celery reasonably well.
Large Food Chute
The wider funnel lets you feed larger chunks of produce and even full fruit and vegetables.
This also reduces prep time as you will not have to chop and dice your food for too long before juicing.

Excellent Juice Quality
Slow juicing avoids froth and heat. So nutrients are retained.
Slow squeezing ensures that you get the best nutritional value from your fresh, delicious juices.
Because there is no oxidation, the juice stays fresh without spoiling for upto 72 hours.
Unique auger designs have consistently made Omega juicers more effective at extracting more juice from all kinds of fruit and vegetable produce.

Extra Functions
While a juicer is primarily for making juices, the Omega Compact Juicer can do a lot more like grind and mince produce.
You can whip up salsa and sauces, make smoothies and even puree baby food using it.
Additional nozzles can be used to extrude pasta or make breadsticks.
Automatic Pulp Ejection
Continuous slow juicing is possible because the juicer automatically extrudes pulp.
This also keeps the auger from getting clogged while juicing.
Quiet
This slow juicer operates almost silently and you’ll often only hear the noise of food churning inside the juicer and the gentle murmur of its motor.
