I wrote a recent review on the Omega Vert and was asked to compare the Angel 5500 with it. The following is a repeat of what was written in my Omega Vert review. ________
After some time with the Angel 5500 and the Omega Vert here is my snapshot showdown between the two machines. Guns loaded with leafy greens, fruits (fresh and frozen) and nuts.
Quantity of juice: The Angel is far superior to the quantity of juice produced compared to the Vert. I even took the remaining pulp from the Vert and fed it to the Angel and it produced enough juice on its own for 3 afternoon shooters.
Quality of juice: As expected the Angel won here. The juice from the Angel did have slight pulp but overall it was smooth and clean tasting. Appearance and taste provided a much deeper vibrancy. I would say the color was 2-3 shades deeper with the Angel juice in contrast to the Vert. Taste was more complex but yet silky with the Angel. Whereas the Omega Vert had a lot of pulp and was bath water foamy. I let the Vert juice settle a bit and then strained which produced a cleaner taste but the color was still not as clear and vibrant.
Heat dissipation: Little difference detected between the two.
Frozen fruit - sorbet test: The Vert won by a mile on this one. It gobbled up all the frozen fruit combos I gave it and churned out very nice sorbet. The Angel produced a syrup mess.
Cleanup: The Omega Vert won by a 10 minute faster clean up. Frankly I'm anal about keeping things new and very clean and it took me 25 minutes to clean up the Angel and aprox 15 minutes for the Vert. I could have speeded up both times by not cleaning the screens as diligently but as I mentioned I'm meticulous when it comes to cleaning. The screen on the Angel is a pain to clean.
Build quality: Despite the all stainless steel on the Angel I believe that the Omega Vert is just as substantial but with hard composites. The Vert's housing is very well made but the machine's parts are in question to longevity. Side note, Omega has a fantastic warranty to fall back upon in case.
I'm torn as which to keep as I can't swing space or expense to keep both. I tend to think I would use the Vert more on a daily bases due to clean up ease. However with the Angel I could get away with juicing every 2-3 days and feel safe that the fridge'd juice is of the same if not higher quality as what I would gain from daily juicing with the Vert. Without a doubt if I juiced on both machines daily the Angel would provide a greater amount of nutrients and quantity than the Vert.
I hope this helps in a snapped out comparison.
