A very well made citrus juicer. It works perfectly, is easy to use and clean.

Works on Perfect for lemon 🍋 shake-ups. Very attractive and easy to use. Built very well, super sturdy. Fits nicely on countertop.

When you first see this online you wonder to yourself "whoa why is this so expensive" ... then you decide to purchase the product because of all the positive reviews both on Amazon and on Youtube, plus it's the only brand I can find selling the product in the colour pink. You then receive the product and right out of the box you completely understand the cost. WOW! Very, very impressed. This is completely sturdy, high quality with the complete components in heavy duty cast iron, and really nice quality of the stainless steel presser bowls and filter. It is absolutely worth the money. I immediately went out and purchased some citrus fruits and tried this and OMGosh, it works incredible and so effect of squeezing all the juice out. What I particularly liked is the fact that there was no splashing around the stand or on your walls and cabinets when squeezing the juice out (i.e. no messy splatter) which is important to me because I have all white cabinets and backsplash. All the juices had a directly seamless flow precisely into the strainer and into your glass. Love that!If I had to complain a little bit (and honestly that's just very personal preference) is the fact that the colour pink was not the bubblegum shade that's shown in the photos. It's more of a sorbet/pastel pink rather than bubblegum pink. Still extremely cute but again, that's just a personal preference.

This juicer is awesome. Lots of fun to use for adults and kids. Maximizes the juice from fruit with ease and much faster than a hand juicer. Cleanup is ridiculously simple. Feels like a sturdy piece of equipment, and the color options are great. Highly recommend.

Not surprising that the Zulay juicer does what it says. Cast iron, lever press types of equipment (like the Hiker grommet press) tend to be that way, They are simple designs with few moving parts using principles of levers going back to Archimedes. It's also what makes them generally so affordable and I think Zulay has kept its price as low as possible. The nearest competitors, of similar design and quality, are about $100 more expensive.The 4 1/2 stars? That's for a few minor design details that I think Zulay might improve. The first is that it is a little tippy and Zulay recommends hold the back down when forcing the lever. I think the solution is quite simple. Use adjustable, hard rubber front feet instead of the fixed-height ones it uses. Then one can slight tip the juicer at a 4 or 5 degree angle. Same principle as putting wedges under the front feet to tall book shelves to keep them from tipping. A DIY solution is to take a 1-1/2" x 2" x 8" piece of wood; mortise two holes to fit the rubber feet into and glue a piece of non-skid rubber on the bottom of the stick. That should eliminate the tippiness without effecting the operation. If you also put a similar piece of wood on the back feet, you can raise the height a little which is just shy of a standard 16oz glass or similar containers. Which takes care of detail 2. I do think Zulay could make the height for containers a little taller - which would take care of that detail.detail 3 - the width between the arms of the base could certainly be a little wider at the back, to better accommodate standard size measuring cups and container bottoms which are 3-1/2" wide. I'll also mention hear that it does take some force to bring the lever all the down and get out all the juice. It may not be usable by those with less forearm strength or conditions like arthritis. They need to try it and see. I have found that if one slits the fruit flesh in quarters before juicing, it is easier to press. Design-wise, Zulay might think of putting some fins on the press bowl, similar to those found on hand-held reamers. That might help cut into the fruit as the upper plate presses down and lessen the force required.That's about it. The details don't detract at all from my recommendation that this is probably the best manual juice extractor one will find at this price. A good piece of equipment for anyone's home kitchen.It would also be good if this were made in the USA instead of China. I'd pay a little extra for that.about some of the 1-star complaints. I read them, and they mostly appear to be from people who didn't quite understand how to operate the Zulay, or perhaps reviews from competitors (one never knows.)Additional note: FOR SAFETY, Zulay needs to add a positive spring or button catch to keep the handle upright when it is in a vertical position and the press is fully open. The handle is heavy, and the slightest motion will set it traveling downward. While cleaning up I have twice had the handle hit me in the head, and once had the edge of the upper bowl crash down on my finger. That does need fixing, for safety.

I'm addicted to fresh squeezed grapefruit juice. I've always had the regular electric one. Everyday I had to take it out of the drawer, plug in, juice, wash a million pieces, let it dry and put it back in the drawer. I dont have room on my counters especially for this ugly little thing. This manual one (perfect if you dont have arthritis) is fast, easy, beautiful, takes little room on the counter, has 2 things to wash and can even accommodate pomegranates besides citrus. Make sure to only buy cast iron. Happy juicing.
