Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was initially hesitant about buying a plastic juicer. The glass ones seemed so much easier to clean, stronger, more sanitary and like they would be easier to use. Those assumptions were totally wrong. My wife pointed out to me afterwards that this one worked better because the plastic edges on the dome are sharper and as the fruit gets turned, the sharp edges actually pop the cells of the fruit so that the juice can be released. For safety reasons, the ridges on glass and other plastic models are rounded and do not have this popping effect. Secondly, the dome and strainer at the bottom fit very snuggly onto the bottom which is made of a very high grade plastic. It even has a rubber ring on the bottom so that the juicer doesn't turn as you spin the fruit. Don't worry if you think it will break. I am quite strong (and decently heavy) and there is no give or wobble in the product even when I lean on it with my full weight. Just to test it, I took a lime which I had already used another juicing tool on and used this juicer to see what more I could get out of it. More came out of it than with the original. This one just seems to be designed way better. I realize that it seems rather silly to get excited over a juicer that costs less than $10 but I do a lot of cooking with citrus fruits and this has made life so much easier. Get one and you won't be disappointed.
