The squeezer works as well as any other, but it costs a few dollars more for features that ultimately don’t matter.Our policy lasts 30 days. And the tool is several ounces lighter, which is a good thing for those who have trouble holding heavy things, but it also makes the squeezer feel less sturdy. The pin in the hinge is noticeably thinner than the pins in the other squeezers we tried, so longevity may be an issue.
And the way the top and bottom fit together with the center bump made it more awkward to squeeze the fruit. However, this model didn’t do better than any of the other squeezers we tried-there was always some juice left behind. The company says this is to mimic a traditional reamer, allowing for more juice extraction. The “soft touch” handles have a rubberized area to make it a little less slippery when squeezing, and the center of the bowl is raised up in the middle. OXO’s aluminum citrus press looks like most others but offers a few extras. It’s definitely a deluxe model, but it comes with a price tag to match ($40 at the time of writing). This version is also far heavier (about 1/4 pound) than the original Chef’N and the bowl is bit wider. I cross-tested the volume with a measuring cylinder and it was short by about 1/4 ounce. More importantly, the measurements are not that accurate (probably because of the angled bottom). However, the cup is small-its graduated measures only go up to 2.5 ounces. And the cup kept the spray of juice well contained. Being able to rest it on the counter allowed the leverage to apply pressure a lot more easily. The cup snaps on flush to catch every drop, and the bottom is angled so you can rest it on the counter at a comfortable position while you press. The Williams-Sonoma Citrus Press is the Chef'n Fresh Force, but with the store-exclusive feature of an attached measuring cup. It’s also nearly impossible to use with large diameter fruits like oranges. Even if you ditch the lid and use your hands, the plastic collar on the reamer is too tall, making it difficult to grip the fruit around the sides and often leading to finger scrapes. Because the lid is rigid, it can’t squeeze the fruit against the reamer effectively-you only get juice from the very center of the fruit. There’s a pour spout and a lid that goes over the reamer that’s designed to work as a handle that you can use instead of your hands to twist the citrus against the reamer.īut despite its many seemingly ingenious features, this tool was our biggest disappointment. A plastic reamer sits atop a little plastic measuring cup. The Trudeau Citrus Juicer seemed like a cute and ingenious combined juicer and storage container. Unless you’re planning to always juice your citrus over a tall glass, keep looking. You'll need a bottle brush to clean that metal tube. Using this over a short glass or measuring cup isn’t ideal, as the long tube will just get in the way.Īlso, the reamer can slide out for washing, but the tube doesn’t detach from the funnel, making storage and cleaning problematic. However, it definitely has its drawbacks.
It’s also sized for a wide range of citrus, from small limes to large oranges or grapefruit. The reamer itself is ridged plastic and very efficient at tearing through the fruit to unleash all the juices. The silicone funnel is soft and rests against the lip of the glass to the reamer keep it steady.
