Is this juicer centrifugal or masticating?

Centrifugal. As a side-note, I have since bought a Breville centrifugal (far more expensive) and it is no better than the DASH. Definitely go with the DASH to save money and have a comparable product.

Centrifugal. The pulp is collected inside and separated from the juice, not blended into the juice. The pulp makes an excellent mulch in the garden around lettuce, spinach, etc.

there is plastic where the part that sits on the orange and press's down is. I don't use it I use my hand. Love this juicer but a piece has already broke off after 1 year of use but it still functions fine.

I have no idea. I returned this juicer because it was very flimsy. I needed a sturdier one.

This juicer is so hard keep stable that it takes ask the fun out of juicing. I returned this product. If you are seriously wanting to juice buy a masticating juicer like Green Star or Kuvings. I juice daily.

It's not vague.....it's plastic. It's heavy enough to do the job. It's not rocket science. Oster is a good name and this is a good little juicer for the money. The whole thing comes apart and can go into the dishwasher if needed, except for the base. I know there are different grades of plastic, but this is not something that you store the liquid in, so it's not that important.

Yes, it is like most other "masticating" juicer(since it does use any high-speed blades to shred the fruit pulp, nor any centrifuge to extract the liquid juice afterward)It more or less squeezes the pulp slowly (as if masticating the pulp) then forces the mashed pulp past a metal screen to enablethe fluid juice to be separated out and into the collection tube.

The Omega 8006 Juicer is a masticating juicer which is what a cold press juicer is. So, yes.

Yes! It doesn't heat up the juice like a centrifugal which make it ''cold press''. All masticating juicers are considered cold press.

Hi- This is a masticating juicer. I have one and I also have Omega VRT. If I had to choose one I would take the Champion.

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

No, this is a juicer. Masticating juicers are called slow juicers, and do generate less heat. But the action is one of grinding, not pressing. http://www.ehow.com/how_7997692_make-cold-press-machine.html

This is the first masticating juicer I have had, so in comparison to the centrifugal ones I previously own -its great. With beets you will definitely get more juice, however with the cabbage I would say its about average. If you havent already I recommend you check youtube for comparisons. There are also some great tips on how to get the most from vegetables such as cabbage, kale and spinach.

This pulverizes using centrifugal force (a centrifugal juicer). It doesn't do the most efficient job of getting all the juice (but meets my needs). If you want something that really gets a lot of the juice out, look at the masticating juicers - extracts the juice - but they are at least twice the price. I have both. I also have a Jack LaLanne (which operates on the same principal as the Breville) which really is a pain. That I don't use. BTW, I find that the Breville is very easy to clean.

there is a basket in the center for the pulp. If you're not going to use it much, this juicer would be a fine beginner. But if you're serious about juicing, i would not recommend this one, 1, because the pulp container is in the middle and you have to take the juicer apart in order to empty the pulp bin.

Of the 3 juicers - a very popular centrifugal, mid-range masticating, and this manual juicer, this little green thing delivers the best results out of them all.

it's not super difficult but there are a few different parts. it is semi-self cleaning in that while the juicer is running you can pour water through it to get it partially cleaned. you can then just quickly scrub with a dish brush to get anything else remaining. because it doesn't have a centrifugal screen the pulp is generally easy to clean out.
