Joseph Joseph Helix Citrus Press Juicer, Ergonomic Twist action hand press, lemon & lime squeezer

This is much easier then the press down juicer I had before. Build quality is great. It will squeeze oranges and limes easily. Smooth handles still provide good grip and the strainer will catch all the seeds. Great value and easy to use. Cleanings also easy as the unit is made of 2 separate parts. So there are no hinges to get loose.

I never knew what was missing in my kitchen. This thing is incredible & unless you have lumberjack hands you;ll never know how terrific these are. These are amazing. Buy one for you & a friend.

This citrus press is a sturdy plastic that's durable, functional and doesn't bend when I press lemons. Quick to use, I can cut a lemon in half, pop it into the press, twist and there you go lemon juice! There are no sharp edges and the texture is easy to grip.

I’m about to order my second one of these, though admittedly, not after looking for an alternative. First one lasted a year and a few days, and I’m really disappointed it hasn’t lasted longer. I really think that because these are similar in price to a lot of metal ones that hold up for years, these should last longer. But I do use it daily, so take that into consideration. It lasted me about 370 days. And I’ll add the reason I choose this over those hinged metal ones (I used to have one for many years) is that it’s important to me to be able to run it through the dishwasher and this one requires less effort to mash the lemon more effectively. Pros: Works really well, easy to use, gets every drop of juice, easy to clean (dishwasher safe) Cons: 1. broke just after a year. One of the plastic pieces that secures the two parts together snapped off. I feel like it should last longer, but I do use it daily. 2. Hard to store. It’s incredibly large and bulky. I’m glad I use it every morning because it comes out of the clean dishwasher, gets used at breakfast, and then goes right back in. (I drink warm lemon water each morning.) If I had to find a place to store it in my tiny kitchen, it would be a problem. 3. There’s nothing to catch seeds or bits of pulp, and they do fall through the large holes. My workaround is I set this juicer in a small tea strainer that fits in the top of my mug. The tea strainer catches seeds and any bulky pulp bits.

Very happy with this purchase - I have used daily for ~ 1 month and find it easier and cleaner (less splash) than any hand held juicer I’ve used before.

I was initially pretty skeptical about whether a plastic-and-nylon gear design could really beat a classic metal press, but the Joseph Joseph name brand and the unique helix design eventually won me over. I ended up buying it thinking it would be the ultimate ergonomic upgrade for my kitchen. I really wanted to love the concept, but after using it for a while, I’ve had to go back to my old ways. What’s to Like (and What’s Not) On the surface, it’s a stylish piece of kit. If you primarily care about the color, design, and having a name brand on your counter, it looks the part. However, the "ergonomic" claim feels like a bit of a stretch. In reality, it’s bulky and heavy, which makes it feel more cumbersome than "easy-squeeze" when you're actually in the middle of prep. The biggest letdown, though, was the efficiency. You'd expect a high-end design to maximize output, but I was consistently getting maybe 60% of the juice. I found myself having to either throw away the wasted fruit or—defeating the entire purpose—manually squeezing the rest with my hands. The Downside The final straw for me was the durability. For the price I paid, I expected high-quality construction, but a peg actually broke off during use! It’s hard to justify the premium price tag when the mechanical parts don't hold up to standard kitchen tasks. The Verdict If you’re looking for a light, high-quality, and high-output juicer, you should probably look elsewhere. While it looks great, it just doesn't deliver the 90-95% juice extraction you'd expect for this investment. Unless the aesthetic is your #1 priority, this one is a disappointment.

So decided to get this as hands are getting old and I needed to replace one I broke, it arrived yesterday and we are returning it today because it is a bit flimsy in an odd way; when you are squeezing it wants to stretch open and cam out of the slots, this occurred even on small pieces of whatever you want to juice with light to medium pressure (? best way to describe it for me) . I can't speak to its ability to juice something fully as I was unable to make it that far but it did seem to be a lot easier on the hands than a traditional citrus juicer. As this item sits I cannot recommend it to anyone simply because of the design weakness. Even steel will stretch the same (albeit permanently) but it will take much more force to do so, if it were to be redesigned with a reinforced ring to mitigate this stretching I would be happy to try this again but this problem needs to be solved first. Design is great except for the issue I and others have experienced, the cost is a bit pricy but to be expected for a home decor brand, it absolutely was easier on the joints but even light pressure caused it to cam out. I believe that the issue can be resolved with a slight redesign, maybe a thickened steel ring molded into the lip of the steel cup before the handle is attached, but I think I would like to actually see the fix rather than take something on a word.

The standard compact juice squeezers splash everywhere and require muscle strength, and electronic juicers are big, bulky, but juice very well. What's a good middle ground? This Helix Citrus Juicer. — DESIGN — First off, this item is about 50% bigger than other hand juicers. It will definitely take some drawer space. It is made of solid yellow plastic for the handles and a stainless steel base where your citrus goes. Once you get the hang of juicing, you'll realize this is probably going to be the new best way to squeeze juice efficiently, without a big machine. — JUICING — You should practice the motion with it empty to see how it slides down. I read someone "stripped" the insides; I can only imagine it wasn't aligned properly when that person did it. Align the red dots together and squeeze slowly into a container. This is designed and shaped to juice *half* a lemon/lime at a time, so don't try to pack things in. The way it's shaped makes it seem like the skin side should be faced down, but I get more juice when I put citrus in *cut side down*, so that's what I'd suggest. When you're juicing it may seem like nothing comes out, but when you open and loosen up the handles the juice comes out (probably because of pressure or something). — SUMMARY — This is my new favorite juicer. It looks cool, doesn't take up too much space, and it doesn't splash! Recommended.

You may more then for similar product. But you get quality. Definitely worth having it

Some reviews state this device does not squeeze all the juice out of the fruit. This was not an issue for me. I tried it initially on a standard UK supermarket lemon (probably the smallest available in the western world) and it coped very well. I tested that by trying to get more juice out of what was left of the fruit, but the difference was minimal. This was purchased because I thought my wife would have less difficulty with this squeezer than other types and that is the case: it takes a lot less effort. The unit juices without pushing pips or bits out of itself. It is well made and cleans very easily. Quality product.

Malzeme kalitesi sağlamlık hissi veriyor; parçalar esnemiyor, bükülmüyor. Temizliği de oldukça pratik, suyun altında hızlıca toparlanıyor.

Efficace, alla portata anche di persone con problemi alle articolazioni per cui il classico spremiagrumi a rotazione diventa di difficile uso. Inoltre spreme fino all'ultima goccia. Robusto e solido, solido in mano e consente una presa ferma.

The material is good, feels robust, but functional it is not useful for me It may give some help for certain lemon sizes, but you cannot put orange Besides you have to put the sliced lemon upside down, and still there going to be some space between the pressure and the lemon So finally you get only 70-80 % of the juice I will try another type of Joseph Joseph Citrus press, as I liked the quality
