Welcome to our Omega VRT350 Review! For the first time in our juicer test series, we are testing the Omega vertical juicer.
This is the VRT350 model from Omega. Omega and the VRT350 model are known to those familiar with the juicer machines.
This device has already been tested several times by prominent test institutes and has given an excellent result. More on this in detail in our juicer test below.
Omega VRT350 Review – How Does It Work?
The vertical juicer works with a press screw technology and a shaft. The whole process is easier and faster with this vertical screw.
The ingredients are processed at extremely low speeds (70 RPM) to keep the juice’s optimum amount of enzymes, vitamins, and minerals. It is also optimistic that significantly less foam is produced due to the low speed.
It is pleasing that with this process, both soft pressed material like most types of fruit, hard-pressed material like almost all types of vegetables, and partly also plant greens like leafy vegetables, spinach, wild herbs or grasses (e.g., wheatgrass or barley grass)) can be juiced. In addition, this model has an improved juicing sieve made of GE-Ultem material and an improved juicing bowl.
The new sieve is significantly more complex and more stable and also has a positive effect on durability.
Compared to the previous model, the filling opening was also made a little wider and in the shape of the letter “C,” which will be helpful with citrus fruits or sliced apples.

Omega VRT350 Review – Juicing Test
Review contents
Test 1
We did a first test run. Due to the bad weather, we opted for many vitamins.
Ingredients:
- 2 kg of carrots
- 4 organic apples
- 1 organic lemon
- 290g spinach
As recommended several times, we have pre-cut the ingredients. The lemon was peeled and quartered, the carrots halved lengthways, and the apples quartered. As a result, our juice yield is excellent. As an exception, we have separated the pulp from the juice with an extra sieve. Juice quality: 5 stars, extremely tasty and fresh.
Test 2
Ingredients:
- 10 carrots
- lettuce
- rhubarb
- 2 apples
- 1 lemon
- 1 piece of ginger
- 1 cucumber
Again, the ingredients were processed and cut a little beforehand. However, we were also delighted with the juice yield.
Juice quality: Even if we repeat ourselves, but the juice is fantastic. About its structure, it is again very “calm,” homogeneous, not a foam-watery mixture, but a clear and fresh and natural juice.
Test 3
Ingredients:
- 1 kg of carrots
- 2 apples
- 1 cucumber
- 6 oranges
- 2 lemons
- 1 watermelon
- 1 honeydew melon
- Ruccola
- 1 piece of ginger
Juice yield and juice quality: First class.Homogeneous, trim foam, a lot of pulp, great color.
Isn’t it nice if the juice is not only healthy but also looks healthy?

Omega VRT350 Juice Yield And Juice Quality
We already had a few test devices in our four walls. Everything was there, from absolutely cheap equipment to “professional juice presses.”
But we have seldom received such delicious juice as a result. The slow juicing results in a very homogeneous, extremely delicate, and aromatic juice.
A first-class result. The juice yield is also convincing.

What Is The Pulp With Omega VRT350?
Fortunately, we determined a very dry pomace result for all recipes in our juicer test.
Omega VRT350 Application Tips
To enable better and faster juicing, you should cut the fruit a little bit beforehand. As a general rule, you should never overfill the juicer. In such a case, the drill and sieve could be damaged. If the device, juice quality, and health issues are essential, you need to be patient.
Green leaves and wild herbs should not be juiced in this juicer alone. Always mix it with some hard fruit and vegetables such as carrots or apples, then there are fewer problems here.
Otherwise, the fibers could wrap around the screw, and this could lead to a jam.
Large seeds such as avocado seeds should be separated from citrus fruits beforehand.
Ideally, if you have large quantities, place a larger container next to the juicer so that you can pour it over quickly during the juicing process.
Omega VRT350 Design
The juicer looks very stylish. A win for the kitchen. Because the press is vertical and has a very slim, straight line, it takes up little space and can generally be cleared away quickly.
Warranty
Personally, when buying a product in such a price range, I always find it very reassuring when the manufacturer predicts a long shelf life and offers me a long guarantee period.
So you are on the safe side, and the purchase is even more enjoyable. We are therefore happy to inform you that the manufacturer gives a 10-year guarantee.
Cleaning
Cleaning is surprisingly easy and quick. Due to the hard plastic, hardly any juice residues stick, and if you also use the supplied accessories, such as the brush, in this case, cleaning is a snap.
The earlier this happens after juicing, the better. So, immediately after juicing, let the warm water flow through briefly and then clean.

Omega VRT350 Review – The Final Thoughts
A top device from head to toe – and vertically! Powerful, but at the same time particularly gentle, impressive juice quality in combination with a very pleasant juice yield.
Easy to clean, extremely long warranty period, and little space required in the kitchen. That is an obvious buy recommendation!
