Omega VRT350HD Vertical Juicer - Replacement Juicer Update

As you remember, I am using the replacement Omega VRT350HD Vertical Juicer the company sent me.  I just juiced and feel the need to brush and floss because there is so much pulp in my mouth after drinking a pint of juice.  I want to show you how the juicer is juicing by way of the pulp produced via the pulp ejection port, i.e., the waste product of juicing. See photo.

Notice the whole skin of a wedge of apple on the right.  There are also 2 other pieces of undigested apple skin.  The largest in the photo is the full size of the piece of apple put into the juicer: 3 inches long x 1 inch at the widest part.  The white seeds are un-masticated cucumber seeds in the very wet cucumber pulp!  Of course, the orange material is carrot pulp.  Again today the Omega VRT350HD jammed because of a carrot that was a mere 1 inch in diameter.  I tried calling the customer service phone line, but they are too busy at this time.  They are experiencing "high call volume."  This has happened before.  I held for over 2 minutes and seem to have been disconnected.
I just wanted to give them an opportunity to explain why their juicer is not masticating produce fully and produces a wet cucumber pulp.  Actually, the carrots did not produce a particularly dry pulp either.
I am now on hold with Omega again.
Wait!  They answered the phone and told me all my problems are just normal for this juicer.  It gets less yield than a centrifugal juicer for carrots and other fruits and vegetables and only excels when juicing greens.  This is not what I was told prior to purchasing the Omega vert.  Yes, it will jam from a one inch diameter carrot, it may not masticate apple peel, difficult to remove the bowl from the base, etc. -- all normal!  They know all the issues and accept it.  If you get one, just be sure you can return it if it is not for you.

Going to brush and floss the Omega VRT350HD Vertical Juicer juice "pulp" out of my mouth,
