The Good

This really is an advanced multipurpose nutrition system. The new design features have resulted in a faster and much more efficient juicer than Omega’s previous generations of single auger horizontal single gear juicers and all-in-one nutrition centers (aka: the 8000 series). Such as:

• Get more juice yield! Thanks to a new adjustable end-cap with 5 settings, you can regulate the back pressure to be get more extracted from produce being juiced. All previous generations only have a static end cap, which provides a default back-pressure that is NOT adjustable / adaptable. 
• Faster juice making! With the larger feed chute, making juice with the NC800HDS juice extractor just got a lot quicker. Now you can spend less time doing food preparation (cutting time) and submit larger units into the feed chute.
• Redesigned rugged stainless steel dual stage screens
• New smooth plunger design is faster to clean
• Larger juice collecting cup beneficial for bigger volume juice making sessions. Excellent for family juice making or for those that who want to make bigger batches and store for later consumption.
• BPA-Free

The Bad

Even though the NC800HDS is a very versatile juicer, as with all juicers, this unit is not a one size fits all.

• Like all horizontal single gears, it does not excel at solely juicing soft fruit, such as pineapple pomegranate or tomatoes. You can overcome this obstacle by combining a mix of soft and hard produce, and submit alternating portions of soft, followed by portions of hard produce into the feed chute. This could be an issue for those that intend to juice a higher amount of soft fruit.
• To enjoy the higher yields possible with the adjustable end-cap, beginners will have a greater learning curve to master compared to previous models.
• Unlike its main category competitor, the vertical single gear (ex: model VSJ843). it does not have an auto feed feature. As such, the NC800, will require manual pushing of the produce. Not having an auto feed could be an issue for some, such as follows.
• This could be an issue for persons that tire easily lifting produce and pushing plunger when doing large or possible batch juicing. If so, check out vertical juicers.
• For persons that want premium juice but know they do not want to have to continually push veggies / produce into the feed chute with the plunger and would simply prefer a system that auto feeds in the produce dropped into a feed chute. If so, check out the vertical single augers.
• This could be an issue for persons that want to do other things at the same time as juicing and get bored continually feeding in and plunging portions into the feed chute. If so, check out vertical juicers.
• For those of you with limited cabinet or counter space in your kitchen, this juicer (as well as all previous generation horizontal juicers), the large footprint may not be desirable. If so, check out vertical juicers.

How will it benefit you?

• High nutrition value - lower speed of 80 RPMs resulting in juice that is better equipped to keep its healthy enzymes intact, delays the oxidation process, and prolongs the juice's optimum shelf life. Ideal for those that want to store nutritious juice up to 72 hours.
• Higher yield - The adjustable back-pressure end cap, along with the redesigned juicing screen extracts higher juice yields.
• Less Foaming – These juicers produce less foaming than previous models.
• Easy to clean – And easy to assemble and disassemble.
• Portability – Built in handle makes it easy to move around
• Quiet Operation – It’s very quiet, but not as quiet as the super slow 43 RPM Omega VSJ843 Vertical Juicer. (But the VSJ843 is not a Nutrition Center, which means it does not offer all the multipurpose food making appliance features. Instead it specializes in ultra slow cold juice extraction.

Is this Right for Me?

When it comes to selecting the right juicer, there is no one universal juicer that juices all fruit and vegetables equally the same. The different styles and category of juicers are optimized for some tasks more than others. Consider the following.

• If you intend to do more fruit juicing, or mixed produce juicing and less of sole leafy greens or hard produce type juice extracts, and do not require an all-in-one food making appliance, than you may want to look at the Vertical Single Auger Juicers.
• If you anticipate not having an “auto feed” operation and that having to continually feed produce and plunge could be too physically demanding, or could deter you from juicing often, then this may be a reason to look at another category of juicers that do feature the “auto feed” function such as the Vertical Single Augers.
• If you intend to juice mostly leafy greens, seek to further maximize nutrition density and have the budget for the next level up in premium juice extracting, than a Twin Gear Juicer (horizontal juicer with two augers), may be for you.
• If high quality juice is not a priority, nor longer shelf life, but speed and low budget are, and you intend to juice mostly hard produce, then you may want to check and compare centrifugal juicers.
