These Squeezers RuleJuly 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 durabilityJuly 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.
