How does it handle beets?

With ease, solid machine, only downside is it takes more work to clean the fine mesh after than my omega 8006, love the green star but personally for the amount more it pushes out in juice, my favorite between my 2 is the omega

What is the difference, if any, between the Green Star and an Omega juicer? Will they both do greens, especially wheat grass, well?

I didn't have an Omega juicer but I did have a Jack LaLane and Ninja. The Jack LaLane required everything to be peeled and the Ninja said you can put in everything including the skins but I found that it was extremely "chuncky". The Green star is heavy duty - it just pulverized everything - it is a pain to clean though if you're in a hurry.

I wanna start a juice business, what's the best certified juicers out there, I have a budget of $25000, I just need the best of the best

I am not an expert, however I have used a lot of different juicers. If you are going to start a business, I would think you need more than 1 type of juicer. Certainly the Tribest is a very good juicer. However there is another juicer, also available on Amazon, called the Super Angel all stainless steel twin juicer - 5500, however it sells for $1349.99 ($1024.00 used). I have not tried this one, but I imagine it would probably be the best. Whatever you do, don't get one of those vertical masticating juicer like the Omega or the Hurom, because, they cannot handle heavy duty juicing and they tend to clog up if you feed too much produce too fast into the machine. I purchased one, and sent it back, the next day. They also would not be able to function well if handled by someone who doesn't know what they are doing, like a minimum wage employee. I would also not get a single auger juicer, since any stringy vegetables tend to get wrapped around the gear. For a juice business you would want a different juicer for citrus fruits, that just squeezes the fruit, you don't want to put citrus through a masticating juicer. You definitely don't want to use a masticating juicer for sugar cane. There is a Youtube video where someone tried that and it was a big disaster. You need a special heavy duty sugar cane juicer for that. I would also recommend a high speed centrifugal juicer if a customer intends to drink the juice immediately.

If I also want to juice fruits, will this work fine or do I need in addition the Tribest FS-610 Fruitstar ? EDIT: Thank you all for your answers :-)

I am not familiar with the Tribest FS-610 Fruitstar, but I also juice fruits with my GSE-5000. The GSE-5000 works best with a hard food like carrots or Fuji apples or kale. Some apples and most fruits are so soft that I need to be careful or the juice backs up and comes out the input hole. I am told that Green Star makes a fruit accessory that makes it easier for fruit. There is an adjustable, spring loaded, relief valve to decide when the pulp can come out. Since I want all the juice that I can get, I keep it adjusted at the tightest position. I was told that the fruit accessory is just a relief valve with a weaker spring and that if I would just have the normal relief valve at the 'weakest' setting, that I did not need the extra fruit accessory. That idea has been good enough for my needs. I have also taken the fruit pulp and run it through again at a tighter pulp valve setting to get more juice. Because, now it is dryer. But, I suspect that many would not want to bother. I suggest that the GSE-5000 gets so much more juice than most others that it is worth the bother. The Norwalk Juicer may be the best as it appears to juice anything. But the price and the size are both gigantic. The FS-610 may be easy, but how much juice does it get? If you are willing to buy the FS-610 and the GSE-5000, I suggest that you buy the GSE-5000 first and use it a while before you buy the FS-610 as you may find that the GSE-5000 is all you need. I did. Some friend really like their Breville. I am not sure which model. Perhaps the Juice Fountain® Duo. They juice carrots and oranges, etc., just about anything, and it is easy to clean. But, I believe that my GSE-5000 makes more juice from the same amount of juice and that the centrifugal juicers oxidize the juice more.
