I was getting tired of using my old little juicer on which I had to rotate the fruit on the spindle manually. I remembered my dad having an old fruit press, and so I bought this one. It is much easier just to press the fruit down with the press, and it works great! Also it's made with quality and looks nice in my kitchen! Read more
Love this juicer. Was my present to myself after having had a kidney stone removed and being advised to take lemon juice daily. This rascal keeps my wrists from becoming painful and really squeezes the citrusempty. Lemons, ornages, grapefruit, limes - all fit well and the juicer enables me to squezze out a qurt of juice in 5 minutes or so. Clean up is easy as rinsing removable parts and wiping down mainframe. I have mine sitting on a rubberized tray with upsloping sides so the countertop stays clean. I am very pleased with this product and believe it is well worth the cost. I would purchase again.

Very heavy-duty design. Outstanding in all respects, and my standards are high as I’m an automotive engineer. Exceptionally easy to operate and clean. My girlfriend and I especially love how easily it squeezes limes, which have the hardest rinds. It came with a stainless steel bowl to collect the citrus juice. That’s a major thing to be looking for if you’re shopping for a squeezing tool. Also, don’t waste your money on a hand squeezer. They don’t work! Lastly, don’t hesitate to use your upper body weight to place additional pressure on the handle. Just be sure to keep one hand on the back of the base to keep the squeezer from tipping/falling forward. Great product and great seller!!!! My girlfriend and I couldn’t be happier!!!! Read more
I like to use fresh orange and lemon juice in some of my chicken and fish recipes. I have arthritis in my hands, which makes using a hand juicer terribly painful. I bought a large electric juicer many years ago, but I hated the clean-up So I bought this hoping it would make juicing one or two lemons easier on my hands. It does a great job and is easy to clean. I’mvery happy with this product. Read more
This juicer is ubiquitous, like most things it's made in China but the price I paid for it here is comparable with importing it yourself after taxes and fees, plus you have the peace of mind afforded by the Amazon return policy. I like this juicer a lot, we regularly juice lemons and I have broken and or worn out several of the standard hand juicers (I have reviewed some of these on Amazon too). The juicer seems very durable, it's easy to clean and it does a good job although there always seems to be a sticky countertop to clean up after an enthusiastic juicing session. I am deducting one star because you can't simply put fruit in and press down on the handle, due to its design it has a strong tendency to slip backwards so you end up having to hold the base and press the lever at the same time. If the design were changed slightly so that the force was over the base it would press down on the counter rather than slide backwards. Read more
It's well-made, rock solid and heavy duty like everyone says. They talk about holding it on the top when you pull the lever down. I found it more comfortable to rest my free hand on the base. Either way, this isn't tippy at all. It's so heavy it feels like you don't even need to hold it when you press, but it's actually more comfortable to rest your free hand on it when you pull the level to press, so that's not a bother. The other concern raised was that the lever can come down and bonk you in the face. It actually stays in the up position just fine, but it will come down if you start handling the parts. This is really simple: keep a hand on the handle when you raise it up. If you need both hands free, step back a few inches so the handle won't hit you if it falls. It's like any tool, you need to pay attention when you use it. Overall, a great citrus press. Would definitely buy it again. Read more
