The Omega 8007 is the latest member of the 8000 series family and it has been released as a direct upgrade to the highly popular 8006. As expected, it maintains all the perks of its predecessor and improves on it where possible. As a result the 8007 now benefits from a pressure adjusting nozzle and an inbuilt scoop handle while still providing the same excellent performance, build quality and versatility we’ve grown used to.
A big advantage for the 8007 comes in the form of well built juicing parts. Many of the parts have been redesigned slightly over the 8006 and are produced from higher quality plastics such as Tritan and GE Ultem, making them even more durable under the pressure of juicing.
As with a majority of horizontal style juicers, the 8007 is capable of more than just juicing thanks to the inclusion of a homogenising blank and 5 different nozzles. The blank is used in place of the usual juicing screen and allows the 8007 to act as a food mixer, mincer and grinder. When combined with the variety of nozzles available this allows for the production of many foods including sorbets, nut butters, pasta, ground coffee and even minced meat.
As would be expected, the 8007 produces a great juice yield thanks to its well developed juicing mechanism and parts. However, it also benefits from 5 variable pressure levels that can be set through a nozzle on the end cap. These levels allow produce to be put under more pressure as it is juiced, ensuring that optimal yields are extracted from different ingredient types.
A low pressure is ideal for use with softer ingredients and a high pressure is useful to get the most out of really tough ingredients such as leafy greens like kale, spinach etc.
Please be aware, that the 8007 is sold in Europe under a different model name. The 8227 European model is identical to the 8007, but it is built to be compatible with a 220 volt power supply. Other than this, no changes have been made to the motor or parts.
There is no difference between the 8007 and 8008 expect their finish. The 8007 is made with a silver body whereas the 8008 is made with a chrome body.
This is a great juicer for extracting very good yields of juice from fibrous produce such as kale, celery, and spinach as well as root vegetables like carrots, and beetroot.
Very pleased with this juicer which does an excellent job. I also received very good advice in the first instance as I was looking at another juicer which would not have been the right one for us.
Decided to purchase 8007 after looking at youtube reviews and talking to an assistant ar Jucie UK who was very helpful and set my mind at peace that I was purchasing the right one 8007 cane next day and I have been using it for about a week and its excellent I would recommend
