Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Norpro Stainless-Steel Citrus Juice Press
Customer Review: Citrus Lover
Summary: 5 Stars
I first used a citrus press like this at one of those places where you prepare meals in advance and then take them home to freeze and serve later. I was impressed with it but thought it was available only to restaurants. I happened to see this online and ordered it on the spot. I love it and use it nearly every day. I use a lot of lemon and lime juice and this baby will get every drop out of the fruit with little fuss or mess. I have arthritis in my hands so I was worried that the squeezing motion might be too hard for me, but I have no trouble at all. The tool is hefty and stainless steel so it doesn't react with the acidic citrus like an aluminum one might. I just throw it in the dishwasher after using it. To use the tool, you slice the fruit in half between stem ends and place the half with the cut edge up in the lower perforated bowl. The perforations allow the citrus juice to drip out but the seeds stay in the bowl. The top portion then squeezes down on the cut edge with it's inverted bowl. That inverted bowl has a lip that laps over the lower bowl so you don't get squirted when you press the tool arms together. After the pressing, I tilt it sideways to allow any juice trapped under the lip to drain out.I find myself using it several times every day. I do a lot of cooking and love this tool.Customer Review: Fabulous product!

After having used and broken more than one lemon press, I feel entirely confident that such a fate will not befall the Norpro press. This puppy gets it done! I am very, very impressed with the ease of use (squeezes out every last drop) and the ease of cleaning (just pop in the dishwasher, comes out gleaming). I cannot recommend this press enough. It's the one.Customer Review: does a good job
Summary: 4 Stars
This press did a good job. I do wish the bowl was bigger so it would fit the larger lemons and limes. I have found I need to cut the ends off and then cut them in half before squeezing. It is a good product for it's size and price.Customer Review: Citrus juicer
Summary: 4 Stars
The product was not what I had expected. I could not juice it to the skin. But otherwise it was convenient.Customer Review: More juice, easier.
Summary: 5 Stars
This juicer works great, just don't forget the fruit goes in cut side down, not up. I find my self not shying away from recipes that use more than just a squeeze of citrus now.
