Not ideal, doesn't catch the seeds
The biggest reason I wanted a lemon squeezer was because I wanted something to catch the seeds. This product does nothing at all to catch seeds, and every time I use it I end up getting seeds in my liquid somehow. Small seeds either escape through one of the bottom four holes, or the seeds ride up the sides and out.Other negatives:-Must be squeezed very slowly because otherwise the juice splatters everywhere.-Will not work on large lemons (anything over about 4" in diameter).-Now that I've been using it for a while, the silicon handles keep slipping off, which is a major annoyance. The silicone handles don't even provide any extra grip, because they're entirely smooth with no ridges.The zester, however, is excellent. It's extremely sharp, so you don't have to use much force to get a lot of zest. Overall, everything seems well made and durable, at least.

Heavy sturdy materials.
I use a lot of lemons...a lot! This is the perfect pair for me. Both are easy to use and feel sturdy, especially the juicer. Its heavy and does the job very well. Only downfall (very minute) is the color of the handles on the juicer don't match the zester. Not a big deal but might be for some. I’d give this as a gift and def buy again for myself if i needed to.

Easy Zest and Lemon Juice
We use lemons for everything. I injured my shoulder a couple of years ago and ever since then I think twice about juicing a lemon, the twisting and pushing can get to my shoulder and zesting over the grater. Especially multiple lemons. I am so glad I bought this. Works perfectly and is well made, so I am glad I spent a few more dollars on this one.

Good deal.
Squeezer - Have used almost nightly for a month now. Lemons, limes, and don't judge experimented with an onion. Has been through the dish washer top rack often. No issues with quality, but the yellow handles allow for water entrapment.Zester - It zests.... uh... comfortable handle? Haven't put it through the dish washer since it's a pretty easy rinse off. No issues with handle bending or other shenanigans.

Good investment
We absolutely love this tool plus the added gift. We have bought two more for our other houses. The product is well-made and seems sturdy. We would highly recommend.

Wow! Buy this if you don't have one. Highly recommend.
This is a hand saver. I was doing it the old fashioned way. This Zester is sized perfectly and squeezing the lemons is now a breeze. Highly recommend.

Great Zester!
This Zester is really sharp!! I would recommend keeping the cover on it when not in use! It's a great Zester. I've used it to grate frozen lemons even. Does a fine job! Haven't used the sqeezer/juicer yet.

Great combo set!!
A great lemon squeezer and zester, Does a good job getting as much juice as possible from lemons and limes. I bought my daughter a ceramic lemon squeezer from Wal-Mart and I definitely feel like this does a much better job
