Just got my Nama2 using John’s code and wow!! I have a Norwalk and omega horizontal auger and this is by far the easiest to use and clean! So glad for your videos that helped me make the decision to purchase the Nama2. I love the Norwalk’s quality of juice and no pulp and love the omega for wheat grass but the Nama was so easy to make a lemon ginger blast- you really can fill it and walk away. As a busy mom I made my daughter apple lemon juice and myself the LGB in record time all while fixing dinner!! Yay- thanks John!!

[@johnanderson3700]

I love my Greenstar. I got mine prior to the pro, but I upgraded the gears. I’ve been extremely pleased with the Greenstar. At this point I’m hesitant to replace it, even though the other newer one looks great. I have a Slowstar as well, but again because of cost to replace I’m keeping mine. I do like the ager that appears much like the Slowstar. I think the new juicer looks like a lot more capacity and perhaps better to clean. At 78 I think unless my present ones fail I will keep. That said, I think you are very trustworthy and people can rely on the information you provide. The quality of the Greenstar is excellent. The attractive thing about the Nama is the extra capacity and performance. I find having one of each type increases the variety of what I can produce. Love the Greenstar for making nut butters. All the juicers I’ve gotten from you are dependable and are long lasting so I can testify to the trust worthy information you provide.

I'm going to make a 14" long, 1 1/4" diameter wooden dowel pusher for my Greenstar GS 1000 so I can use TWO HANDS! Bigger diameter and much longer. That's all the machine really needs to be fantastic

[@wavelength239]

Great video John. We first bought the Tribest Slowstar, then the Greenstar. Then the NAMA J2. We like them all for different reasons, as John has pointed out in his many great videos. With that said, We love our NAMA J2 for soft fruits, like pineapple, grapes, berries and melons, that the GS will not do easily. We find the GS generates ALOT of foam when juicing greens like kale and spinach. For root vegetables, nothing compares to the GS. In our tests, 1000 g of carrots yielded 15.1 oz juice in the GS and 14 oz juice in the NAMA J2. Our yield weighed/volume % in the GS was 45% and the NAMA J2 was 41.4%. We plan to keep all three juicers plus our Blendtec Vacuum Blender, which produces way more juice than any juicer, except carrots, and involves pre-historic manual squeezing. Look forward to John's future juicer reviews, as always. Thanks John.

[@user-cs1xz]

thank you for sharing your test!! i was so disappointed with all the foam from leafy greens with how expensive the greenstar pro is. i thought it was built for greens but the juice it makes with greens is so full of foam

[@carlo8899]

In my 25 plus years of juicing Quality of juice by far goes to the greenstar pro. Convenient and easier to use and clean goes to Nama but sacrifices quality over the greenstar. So,if you have time and have a strong arm get the greenstar if not get the Nama.

[@mshore74]

The way I understand it there is intracellular water and extracellular water in organic matter. The gears in the Greenstar are machined to a very tight tolerance which grinds more and breaks the cell walls of the plant material releasing this intracellular water. I had the original twin gear 25 years ago and I missed it when my ex-girlfriend took it after the split. I'm now using the omega single auger. I remember the twin gears like hard root type vegetables and of course wheat grass. If you can afford it buy both.

[@truesight91]

I love the Greenstar but if I had to pick for the price today I would go with the NAMA. You can exercise or dance while you wait for the juice ! something other juices lack which I feel is the future of juicing. Greenstar will always be a legend though. As with the nutrition I feel its no more than 10% better. NAMA is still new so It will be Impressive to last as long as the Greenstar Elite. GSE will be hard to beat, its only surpassed by the very expensive Angel juicer, if only they made a Greenstar NAMA style juicer with twin gears :D Nice video.

[@cristinateller9107]

thanks john for educating us with these two juicers😃

[@patriceelder1313]

I now have both of theses juicers and the Nama J2 in my opinion out performs the GreenStar Pro. I have been juicing for 25 years and have had six different juicers between centrifugal and slow masticating and when I say Nama J2 has changed my attitude towards juicing, I can go on and on to stress my appreciation for the design, the cleaning, the quality of juice and the assembly which is by far a game changer. The science John speaks about concerning the GreenStar sounds impressive but that scraping tool is cumbersome and the twin gears over time oxidizes and looks unappealing to me. The pulp residue around the body is difficult to clean. I use baking soda to keep it clean and sanitized but frankly I don’t want to go through all that. The green star creates so much foam from the leafy greens which is very important in my Gerson regiment and in my opinion, the juice from the Nama J2 has a better yield and replicates the quality I experienced at Gerson.

[@user-cs1xz]

hi, i have a greenstar too and notice the foam. you mention foam is important for Gerson, what do you mean by that? the foam is beneficial? i am so curious!

[@jefbiggs1583]

Have agree with you about the greenstar. I've owned 5 different juicer including Angel , Hurom and Sana 727.. but I hated the greenstar the most.

[@emilypfister1001]

Thanks so much for this video! I am legally Blind and was planning to buy a Nama J2 juicer because it looked, and probably is, easier to clean. But, after watching this video, I am convinced the Greenstar juicers are better for me. The increased nutrition is worth it. Your in-depth videos and wealth of knowledge are appreciated.

[@livlifluv]

I love my twingear. The best 2 on the market are the Greenstar or the Angel (Super Angel in the US). The Super Angel cost more, but it is so much easier to clean. It has way less parts than the Greenstar. If the price of the Super Angel is something that you can consider, I suggest that you research the "Angel" or "Super Angel" twingear. It pays for itself when you consider the highest yields obtained against the use of organic produce at super high prices. Organic Celery at Whole Foods is now $3.69. Almost $4.00 for very poor quality in terms of size this time of year (super tiny stalks...half the normal size). Good luck on your juicing journey!

[@emilypfister1001]

Thanks for the reply! I just got the Greenstar Elite juicer and I am thrilled! The Angel looks great and someday, I plan on getting it. I need to get better first as I have a health challenge. Good luck to you.

[@mistyboat]

​@@livlifluvI find cleaning more difficult on the Angel compared to the Greenstar Pro Yes there are less parts but I find there are parts more difficult to clean than the Greenstar Pro. Greenstar Pro, housing, adjustment knob, inner chute are all a quick rinse. Pulp ejection part blast of water and some scrubbing needed and the same with the gears. The screen takes a little time but it is easy to get completely clean and the motor unit I use a spray bottle to clean it quickly. The Angel, splash guard takes seconds, gears a blast of water and some scrubbing. The housing with screen to get as clean as possible I find a bit of a pain even with the correct technique and brushes. There are so many awkward little areas to get to and you really need to be rigorous to get all tiny the holes cleared. I also find the motor unit more difficult to clean, pulp drops into the clamp when cleaning and it's a pain to get to. I find all in all it takes me the same if not longer to clean the Angel properly.

[@mathewbacsik8681]

I’d go the green star personally. If I was a working mum with kids, flat out, I’d probably go the nama j2.

I liked your review on the nama. I heard a report/comment/review that the Nama is not very good with doing leafy greens and the leafy greens clog up in the pulp outlet. they also said there was a lot of foam. Would you say that is true or not true?? or? I wish you had put their pulps in a second time and see how they performed gtting more liquid out of the pulp

Compare your beloved Nama J2 with the Hurom H400 please, so people can ‘objectively’ see which is better

[@terencesingerline135]

I love the ease of use with the Nama J2 but clearly the Green Star Pro is the winner ..For me juicing is all about Maximum nutrition and yield and the twin gear is hard to beat..Tearing open the cell walls of the produce is key for nutrient extraction and those twin gears are champions

[@creebuddha]

Im about to upgrade from Omega, i was undecided between these two, until i saw the Greenstar PRO, I don't too much care about convenience or cleaning they all have a few pieces to clean but that twin auger is different appreciate the video, Omega n that 1 auger slow masticating oxidizes FAST n citrus fruits, mango, n pineapple pulp get stuck often in the omega strainer..

Thanks John for your honest assessment between the Nama J2 and the Greenstar Pro. I am on a health journey to cure some non-threatening but chronic skin conditions. I choose the twingear for that reason. I am also about to start an extended juice fast so nutritional quality and yield are my main concerns. I use the Super Angel, because I knew that the excessive parts to the Greenstar would prevent my usage of it.

[@bodhialvasao8897]

Can you please explain more on why excessive parts to the greenstar would prevent your usage?

[@livlifluv]

@@bodhialvasao8897 Hello. I'm a longtime Juicer. I've owned most types from Jack Lalaine, Juiceman, Omega Horizontals (2), their Vertical VSJ843, Tribest Vertical Slowstar, etc. You get the picture. Lol. My refusal to clean excessive parts is a personal choice. I prefer allocating my time towards shopping for ingredients & juicing them. I have other vital responsibilities so time is an asset. I now own Super Angel, The Pure Juicer, & Sana 727. I'm good. I prefer slow juicers that yield the highest juice quantities, the best tastes, & finally fast "thorough" cleaning. The latest sensation is Bulk juicing with the Nama. Nama is a great time saver but it doesn't beat Super Angel, the Pure, or Sana 727 with taste, amount yields (Super Angel, The PURE) & possibly nutritional yields. I'm consistent to what's important to me. Quick cleaning time is a must. Notice my current 3 juicers meet that standard.

Just made pineapple juice, organic white pineapple using only the core and rind. Its delicious!! The volume of juice from one medium pineapple rind and core only is 1 3/4 cups!! Love the Nama J2. So quiet and efficient and cleanup a breeze, even with pineapple rinds just rinse out...

I don't own either but I can imagine seeing Green Star Pro as the dumbbells I used a lot when I first bought but now sit in the corner of my dorm for 2 months at a time without use. I know eventually I'll get lazy to juice every single/other day with the Green star. Something about the Nama J2 just feels like a privilege to own, it's almost like having a personal chef to prepare your meal with the walk away technology. If I was concerned about Beta-carotene and nutrients I'll just incorporate regular cut up or cooked veggies into my meals and all should be well. Me personally, I can just see myself more likely to use the J2 on a routine basis and be consistent with my health.

[@apostolisrountis]

Hi John, thank you very much for all your helpful and educative videos. I have a question for you. Let's say I own both a Tribest Green Star Pro and a Tribest Dynapro DPS-2250. What if I put all the ingredients I want in the Green Star Pro first and then pass the produced juice to the Dynapro? That way I get all the benefits of the Green Star twin gear juicing and take the oxygen out of the juice using the vacuum blender without the need for a nut milk bag. Let's suppose that the time spent in this whole process is not an issue (including the process of cutting the ingredients for the juicer, blending the juice and cleaning both appliances). Since Dynapro has a large capacity, I could go ahead and make a large amount of juice that way and store it into vacuum seal containers in the fridge. What is your expert opinion about this idea?

[@discountjuicers]

There are pros and cons to both juicing and blending. If the highest quality juice is desired, I would just use the vacuum blender and omit the green star pro. If you don't use a nut milk bag, you will have a smoothie instead of a juice, and it will contain more fiber which will mean you may not absorb as much nutrition since fiber can hinder absorption of nutrients based on studies I have seen. Of course, fiber is also necessary for us and our microbiome. So best is to juice sometimes and make vacuum blended smoothies sometimes. I make 5-7 quarts at a time and store in the fridge under vacuum every week.

[@CoolShaw12]

Hi John, found your site while researching juicers and have subscribed! Thank you for your content. Have you any experience / feedback regarding the gear that runs/ turns the auger in the Nama J2? This gear, the Acetal Gear, wore out quickly and tremendously in my older Omega where the juicer was then a brick and not able to work. I am desperately trying to find the best (medium) range juicer to which replace the old Omega (VRT350) juicer AND not have the same future headache of the gear being worn down after one juicing of leafy greens. Any comments on this issue with similar vertical juicers like Nama J2 or Hurom or the new Omega Batch Juicers? I appreciate any feedback.

[@discountjuicers]

The gear in the original VRT350 is made of GE ULTEM, as it was revolutionary at the time. Nowadays, most Korean-made auger juicers use this same material. The VRT350 was one of the ORIGINAL designs in vertical juicers that was originally released in 2009. Since that time, the juicers have improved. I know they still use the SAME material to make the augers, although I would suspect the exact contents of the plastic have improved since then. I have not seen any significant wear on my nama j2 juicer myself. Should any parts on the Nama J2 wear out due to no fault of your own, it should be covered under the 15-year warranty that is included with the juicer. I have used the Nama J2 the most, and have not used the newer hurom/omega batch juicer as much, but they also use the same gear material.

[@CoolShaw12]

@@discountjuicersThank you so much for this information. It is egregious what they are charging to replace that gear on a appliance that's almost 15 years old. They lost a customer.

I used to always go for the juicing that produces the most nutrients.... that was until i owned a Greenstar. Its loud , so much foam, so slow, lots of pulp in juice i could go on and on.

Where is the video that shows the self-clean function, I can't find it. Thank you very much

[@GodDieux]

Hey! A good idea I thought of for you is that when you do finally compare void systems to the Tribest vacuum blender, be sure to test (of measure) suction before and after blending. As that’s really what’s important. Although Tribest does hold a great seal.

[@dededewar323]

Can you do a comparison on nama juicer versus hestia Juicer made in INDIA ? especially for juicing coconut, which is better.

[@discountjuicers]

Sure, just send me one I am glad to make a video. That machine is not available here in the USA

[@arlenegrace9351]

I am more leaning towards the Greenstar Pro as I am after nutrition. Can you help me to decide between Greenstar or the Sana 727?

[@discountjuicers]

Each machine has their own set of pros and cons. If you are juicing more roots, the Green Star Pro will make a higher yield for sure. If your juicing mostly leaves, I would use the Sana 727. The twin gear will extract more nutrition overall over the auger juicer of the 727. The 727 will be much easier to clean, so it really depends on the factors that are most important to you.

[@lennywinbox1734]

My evolution of juicers, 3 cheap spinning baskets, around $50, Champion $200, GreenStar $400, and then two Omega's, N800 and NC900 around $400 or less. Would have liked a Norwalk. For some reason, I'm not really attracted to vertical juicers.

[@Aaron-wi4nq]

Does the stainless auger leave metal shavings?

[@aaroningram9741]

I wonder if u used the coarse screen on the nama if it would get more nutrients in the juice. Might be a little more comparable to the nutrients the other juicer makes with its fine screen and with the nama being easier to clean that might tip the scales and make the nama the winner. Of course I'm rooting for the nama cause I own one lol. Nama is also cheaper

[@discountjuicers]

While the coarse screen would likely get more nutrients (and fiber) in the juice, the limiting factor IMO is the grinding capability of the juicer, the twin gears just grind up to a finer particle size, releasing more nutrients. I have spoke with the Nama CEO about this and I believe he is working on making parts to improve the performance. Cross your fingers.

[@heliocentric9971]

Why hasn’t Hurom, Kuvings, Omega, or Tribest designed a vertical juicer with a hybrid auger? By hybrid auger, I mean a two-layer auger with an inner plastic core and a stainless steel surface layer. With a hybrid auger turning against a stainless steel filter-screen, one could build a vertical juicer whose nutritional output would likely rival the twin gear juicers.

Anthony says there’s metal in everyone’s juice because of the metal gears

Which other juicers have stainless steel grinders like Tribest juicer?

[@bodhialvasao8897]

In north america consumer market, the only brands that offer great cold pressed juicer with stainless steel grinders (aka. twin gear) are Tribest and Angel, Angel is very high quality and its entire housing and food-contacting parts use s.steel so it’s extremely durable when coupled with good care, it’s buy-it-for-life but very expensive. Tribest is great too. Omega has a s.steel model but that unit has major engieering flaws.

Your best bet is to build a easy hydraulic unit yourself. Better material (AISI317) for a tenth of the price

these comparisons are actually irrelevant, because its impossible to distinguish the amount of non soluble in each piece of produce. you can weight out produce to the same measurements, but it doesnt account for one having more juice and another having more fiber... complete nonsense.
