I have a question regarding these juicers.I have just bought the 8006 and when juicing, the housing where the auger resides "wobbles" a bit while juicing. Not the motor housing, just the plastic housing. Do your juicers do this?

Is it locked to the motor completely?
I have the 8006 and I've never noticed mine wobble.

mine does. It's not a serious wobble but I can see it moving around. Mine did this since it was new. I especially notice it as I'm feeding stuff through it too. Perhaps that's the only time I notice the wobble. But I can't fully recall at the moment.

Yes. It is locked in place. I forgot to mention that it only does this when feeding food through it. I contacted Omega and they said it IS normal; but I'm still haveing doubts.
It seems as if the tolerances are not as tight as it should be. When the auger is in place, you can wiggle it up and down a little. So when food goes in, it causes the entire auger housing to go "up and down" a little.

I have the Omega 8005 and it does wobble just a little bit.
