This is not the same as a Slowstar juicer. The HD-7700 uses polycarbonate parts that contain BPA. This is an older design that lacks the upgrades found in the Slowstar that reduces jamming and damage to the housing.

It is exactly the same. Same company and factory manufactures these juicers. Different distributors model names and color.

Yes. I have in the past. This is my first juicer though. Pleased with it but not very aware of other products.

The Tribest Sw-2000-B SlowStar Juicer is great for any fruits and vegetables. Some will produce dryer pulp than others. You can always run any pulp that you feel is too wet through the machine a second time. The manufacturer says the only seeds that are too hard for the machine and may cause damage to the screen are pomegranate seeds. All other seeds will be crushed and ejected with the pulp. Happy Juicing. VeggieSensations

If you want a more specific answer, go to the Omega website. I believe the major difference is in the motor. I researched them all at the time I purchased mine, and decided the difference wasn't significant enough for the higher cost, for what I wanted to use it for, which is juicing leaves. Sorry I can't be more specific, but I do remember I asked the same question on the Omega website, and received a very satisfactory answer.

I was very unhappy with the purchase . . . I now have a Jack LaLane! A way better price and a way better product! And I can't answer the above question however as I was dissatisfied on so many different levels with it's performance :( I could never recommend this juicer!

Yes it does and we have not found any fix for it. We even have the manufacture send us a new part but with same results. One suggestion for multiple juices: disassemble the unit to clean & remove debris from prior juicing. Reassemble.unit, snugly fitting the "trap door" and tightly sliding the piece underneath into place (I forgot the name). Sometimes I feel it "settle" into place but not always. I have less leakage now then when I first started using the juicer. (We make nine juices a day. if you plan on using it that much you make want a Norwalk. I have another I still use - Juiceman - and I'm satisfied with that for occasional juices.) Yes it does and we have not found any fix for it.

Both of my sisters have this model and I have see the juicer in action: there has not been a lot of froth, just a little at the top. IMHO, this is a very good brand and definitely worth considering.

Hello, yes, it's both faster and pulpier. It also puts less strain on the juicer. It's a nice addition.

Obviously the ultimate choice is yours, I am very pleased with this juicer, previously I had doubts and wanted to go with a more expensive one, but I am happy to say that I am very pleased with its performance, the motor is a 700 w power, very powerful motor, easy cleanup, inexpensive... There are no negatives so far with the juicer.. I will recommend this to any one.. Good luck on juicing...

Yes. Do some research to find out how much juice it yields. There are videos on youtube comparing multiple juicers

I find this juicer performs same as jack l. Juicer per comment/review I made months ago. I have had juiceman. Leland and dash juicers.

The whole fruit is used for most fruits. If I were to choose one, I would pick the PowerGrind Pro. I have juiced with both and frankly the juice quality is better (you can taste it) from the PowerGrind Pro, and it is faster and easier to clean. Perhaps the Omega is better if you are juicing tons of very difficult material like wheatgrass. The trick to all machines is juicing mixtures in the right sequence so there is enough liquid to help get dryer materials through.

I have both. I just replaced my 1995 Vitamix with a new model that has preset programs for smoothies, soups and frozen treats. I LOVE my vitamix, which btw has a 7 year warranty with the option of upgrade, and is definately the better machine healthwise and if you want more than straight juicing. I cannot imagine what the previous poster did to the Vitamix that it fell apart. It is a workhorse!" However, if you are just juicing, having owned several juicers the Brevelle is the best! Pros and Cons summary: VITAMIX - variety, "Whole" juicer, easy cleanup, built to last. BREVELLE JUICER - Smooth juice with less pulp left over than other Juicers, so much to clean up I rarely use it.

I had the Ikon and recently purchased the Hamilton Beach 67650 Big Mouth Pro Juice Extractor. The Big Mouth actually is more effective at juicing leafy greens than the Ikon. I usually felt the need to put greens back through the Ikon and juice again and I would always get a bit more juice, but not the Big Mouth. The pulp is already quite dry. I do find it helpful to experiment with each juicer because it makes a difference how you load the vegs in the chute and push them through. Overall, the Big Mouth has been more effective on leafy greens than the Ikon and it's way cheaper too.

Actually, Barbara this particular one is extremely quiet especially when compared to centrifugal juicers. I would say that it is at least half the decibels if not quieter. I have owned a wellness/ health teaching center for almost two decades; have tried all types of juicers and this one is by far most quiet, not to mention the most efficient in terms of extracting the most juice (and getting the driest pulp as well as not oxidizing the juice) for the money.
