Product Description

Good Grips Citrus Squeezer

The Oxo Citrus squeezer for use with lemons is quite imperfect. The problems:
1. It will often spurt juice out of the sides no matter what kind of hand pressure one uses.
2. It requires that you reverse or invert the fruit for a more complete extraction after the initial squeeze.
3. Many lemons are too large for the bowl and must be trimmed.
4. It requires a fair amount of hand strength to use without bracing it against something.

Nonetheless, I use it frequently because while imperfect, it is handy and I don't know if another type would perform better.


Great for limes and lemons, too big for key limes. I got this to replace one of the enameled ones after all the enamel started flaking off. I believe the clear anodized finish will last much longer. This juicer came alone in a box the size of a litter box though, completely wasteful packaging.


OXO doesnt disappoint. Great ergonomics on the device and it does what it's supposed to.


I bought this to help me juice lemons because I wanted to try the Master Cleanse Diet and detoxify. I have been using it with lemons and limes for about a week now. Larger lemons need to have the pointed ends cut off first to allow the top to push down on the lemon at the best angle. You place the lemon half face down and the squeezing action turns the lemon half inside-out. I gets a lot of the juice out but not all of it. It gets more of the juice from smaller or thin skinned lemons like "meyer" lemons. If you are juicing smaller or expensive organic lemons you can stack the two already squeezed halves on top of each other and squeeze them both to get the remaining juice out. I do like that is it well made and easy to clean. Lemon rind and pith will eventually build up on the rounded parts if you juice a lot of lemons at once, but you can simply clean it off with a scrub pad. They are heavy weight and will probably last a lifetime. My only complaints are that sometimes juice squirts out of the topside and that it doesn't get all the juice out on its own. Otherwise I am certainly glad I purchased it and will continue to use it.


This item is very well-built and easy to use. The grips are well-made with good traction. I expect this item to be great for years to come. Highly recommended.


I love this little gadget. We have a huge Lime tree in our yard that has a bumper crop of limes right now. I use the juice of a whole lime in my iced tea, hot tea, fruit juices; and I juice several to season chicken or fish. This rugged little kitchen helper doesn't get much rest and I am very happy with its performance, especially for the little Amazon price. I destroyed a similar plastic squeezer that I got at a local grocery store, but this one seems to be holding up very well under the pressure.

For best results, I slice both ends off of the citrus to be juiced, then I slice it in half and then place a half in the gadget and squeeze, release, squeeze, release and squeeze again to get most of the juice out. I hardly get any seeds in the juice, which is an extra plus.

Get this one!! The price is right and it probably works as well as the pricier ones. I have been using this one for about a month and so far am very pleased!


Yea, It's a squeezer and it's not plastic like the one I am replacing. Yea, It works.


I'm quite happy with the squeezer. It's exceptionally solid and comfortable for the price, yet compact for the drawer. I'm pretty strong, yet I think I'd have trouble breaking it. I do wish it were slightly larger. It's labeled as a lemon/lime squeezer but a big ol' California lemon is a tight fit. A little larger and you could squeeze smaller oranges with it.


Nice addition to our bar for fresh LIME juice. As others have said, it struggles with larger lemons although it works ok with smallish ones. We ended up ordering another squeezer for lemons.

Works well, looks decent. Overall, quite happy and only expected it to work with limes based on other reviews (which were right).


I was very disappointed in this product. It just didn't work as well as squeezing by hand. DO NOT PURCHASE. This is a total waste of money.
