My first mastication juicer was the solostar2.The solostar2 is similer in design to the omega8003/8005.The reason I upgraded to the greenstar2000 was because the fiberous tissues of grass juiceing was breaking the
juicing screen of the solostar2.The twin gear juicers do a better job of pressing the material being juiced.Raw crushing power liberates more nutrients from the produce thus more bang for your buck!The twin gear does fit my needs for juicing!If its just an apple juice issue I would stick with the omega.Good luck and happy juicing!
