exactly what I was looking for April 13, 2008 Sandra Franks this product is exactly what every baker needs. I would dread grating orange rinds and squeezing juice. Now it is so simple that I actually enjoying use and the flavor is much better in the finished baked product
Good design, poor execution November 4, 2007 John Q. Septem Pros: It's solid. Great concept, great design. Fast and easy to clean. Much less of a hassle than our electric Black & Decker juicer. Cons: It doesn't work well. We tried oranges and grapefruits, halves and quarters. It just doesn't close far enough to squeeze every last bit of juice out. I squeezed a quarter of a grapefruit, and even though I got a pretty good amount of juice, I was still able to eat what was leftover - and it was still juicier than some of the non-squeezed grapefruits I've had. I can see where it might have a good application, but if you just want a glass of orange juice, it's not the most efficient way.
Definitely a winner! May 12, 2007 J. Thomas (Placentia, CA USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
We previously bought the lemon-sized squeezer, which proved to be very convenient and effective for lemons and limes. We needed this larger size (which had been unavailable at our local store). We're very happy with the product. Works like a charm!
These Squeezers Rule July 16, 2006 Piti (TX) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I read the negative review (above); with due respect, I don't agree. I have the lemon and lime models. I have made a kergillion Margaritas with these. I used to use the twist kind that collects juice in a bowl below - these pale next to the Mexican beauties in price and function. With respect to the claim that pulp and juice get caught in the partially folded-over skin; not so. I tested this myself by fully unfolding the skin and squeezing again - only a drop or two remained from the first pass. So I say: when one is enjoying juice, one should lighten up on the obsessive/compulsive notions and just have some fun. Enjoy!
Disappointing performance and durability July 23, 2005 rho sat (WA, USA) 9 out of 11 found this review helpful
This design might work for fruit with exceptionally thin rinds. Anything else doesn't turn inside out completely, so the rim folds over as you squeeze and traps most of the juice and pulp inside. The hinge pin on mine broke after a couple months, rendering it useless. It's certainly not something I would buy again.
