KitchenCraft Lemon Squeezer, Handheld Lemon Juicer, 22 x 7.5 x 4.5cm, Yellow

Squeezing lemons, come on, its not rocket science surely ? Well beware there are some poor chromium products out there. This is the real deal. Well engineered it closes completely and every last drop is extracted. Well designed so the grip is natural and has a strong lever action. Cleans well. To early to say if it will rust and fall to bits but my impression is this is in another league. Recommend a try. PS so much for Amazons choiceFollow up in Mid AugustAfter near daily use this squeezer continues to operate without a hitch and looks brand new. My initial assessment was right. An excellent product for a very reasonable price.

Good squeeze. Nice kitchen gadget. Use it all the time.

I love this gadget. My son got given one for Christmas and I used it a lot, before he took it to where he works.So I needed to get one of my own, I just couldn't not have this in my kitchen.Easy to use, just be sure to put the halved lemon or lime in with the cut surface down, not skin side down. I made that mistake initially and it gets messy.I also bought the Kitchencraft orange juicer which is great for oranges and larger lemons.Sturdy and easy to clean, no messy filters or cumbersome appliance to find a home for. No need for electrical juicer when you have this trusty gadget in your kitchen.

Works great and feels sturdy!My only nit is that the holes could be a bit smaller, as some pulp occasionally squeezes through with the juice.

Great product, simple, easy to use, can not go wrong.I have seen other reviews saying the handles break - if you squeeze too hard that you think the handles should touch together when the fruit is in the squeezer, what would you expect???Chipping paint - er, what would you be doing to have that happen? Had this a while in constant use, nothing of the sort happening like that. Puzzling 🤔As with all utensils exposed to acids including knives, it will dull and corrode... if you use common sense and rinse and wash immediately after finishing and leave to dry properly then there should be no problems.Consider how large the lemon is when using, if it’s as big as your fist, don’t place a half in... place a quarter and then squeeze carefully, no force or effort is needed. If you see my photo with the lime, position the half with the butt end facing up and the flat into the bowl. Seems counter intuitive but it is how this is used effectively.It’s two pieces metal with a hinge, well coated and easy to clean and look after... as I said, you can’t go wrong and the price is fair. Gets my vote of confidence 👍

I recently bought this lemon squeezer for a second time as I lost the first one (and couldn't be bothered to look for the one I had). It's my favourite squeezer as it is easy to clean (just a rinse under water), it is made of study metal covered with enamel, which does NOT chip or peel in my experience. If you put it into the dishwasher, it loses its original lustre as the enamel wears out a bit, but as I said a quick rinse under the tap is enough anyway.Squeezes most of the juice out of the lemon, so not wasteful. Need to pick the size of lemon accordingly though., to fit in the cup. One extra property of this tool is that I noticed the tiny bit of lemon oil from the skin of the lemon gets squeezed in as well, which makes the juice more zesty, and I like that.

Simple and effective

My usual method of squeezing limes is a fork and a twist, however my kids (8 & 10) can't really do that. When cooking together they really wanted to juice limes and lemons, or make some fizzy water and lime juice on their own. Juicing is a crazy good treat clearly!The longer handle means that my girls can easily get most of the juice out. They can get about 75%, then I finish with a bit of squeeze. I guess also a great option with less grip strength or the elderly.I wanted the orange squeezer but it wasn't available. I got the yellow lemon one and am happy with the size. It comfortably fits a lemon or lime and gets all the juice out, no pips. The only slightly counter intuitive thing is that you have to put the fruit in skin up, cut side down. Otherwise the juice can't escape. The juicer effectively turns it inside out. A quick shake over the food bin and throw it into the dishwasher.Mine has been through the dishwasher 3 times now, and is still box fresh.Fruit holder has 7cm diameter, and just under 4cm depth.
