I've been on a quest for the perfect lemon squeezer, and the Zulay Kitchen Metal Lemon Squeezer has been a delightful find. Here's my take: Design & Build: - This metal marvel not only looks good but feels sturdy. The squeezer I purchased before this one snapped in half on the third time using it and was twice the price! Performance: - It's a juice-extracting beast. I've never seen my lemons give up so much juice with so little effort. Ease of Use: - Surprisingly easy to handle, though I've learned to approach it with respect after the mishap I had with the previous squeezer mentioned above. My Experience: - I use this daily, and it's become a kitchen staple! Versatility: - It's great for lemons, decent for limes, but might leave you wanting for larger citrus fruits. Cleaning: - A quick rinse, and it's spotless. Love that about metal. Final Squeeze: If you're after an efficient, stylish lemon squeezer, this is it. It might not handle all citrus equally, but for lemon lovers, it's a squeeze of genius.

Although Zulay calls this a "lemon" squeezer, it obviously can be used on other fruits... so long as the item you're squeezing fits in the tool. I use it primarily on limes. I don't know what the normal expectancy for limes is, but I get between 3/4 oz to 1 oz of juice from a typical (i.e. not very large) lime I buy at the grocery store. [Update 3/31/24] I love this squeezer, but I wish I had known about this 2-in-1 model before I bought this one. No biggie, though. The tool is heavy duty. I was impressed when I opened the box and found a heavy, clanky metallic press. I mean, yeah, the product description says "all metal", but there are cheap metals and then there are quality metals. This is the latter. The weak point in this tool, of course, is the pivot pin. It "looks" like it is well-constructed with quality material. Time will tell; but thus far the tool has performed flawlessly, requires little effort, and really smashes the fruit good! Unfortunately, the juice does sometimes splatter when you first begin pressing, so you need to be aware of that and try to contain it as it bursts outward under pressure; but it doesn't happen all the time and it's usually only a very small amount. It'll get the better of you if you're not prepared for it, though. My only complaint about the tool is that it only opens 90 degrees instead of 180. It's nothing I can't live with--just a minor inconvenience at worst--but a little annoying nonetheless. Cleanup is easy for the most part, but there are one or two problem areas. It would be easier if the tool opened 180 degrees or, preferably, the two halves could be disassembled. For those people (like me) who may not know how this thing works or how to use it properly before making your purchase, let me just say it's real simple, but counterintuitive at first. You cut your piece of fruit in half (crosswise), then place the CUT side face down into the bowl (that's the counterintuitive part). Then as you squeeze the two handles together, the upper part basically turns the fruit inside-out, pushing the rind through the flesh and smashing it into the bowl. I love ingenious, simple-to-use tools! So... while I'm sure this is meant to be a kitchen tool, I actually bought it for the liquor cabinet. No more buying a big bottle of lime juice or lemon juice and then having it go bad sitting on the refrigerator shelf indefinitely. Whenever I need lemon or lime juice in a cocktail now, it's fresh fruit and a Zulay lemon squeezer for me! The drinks taste better that way anyway. [Update 3/31/2024] Again, I love this squeezer, but for BAR use making cocktails, I wish I would have known about the first. Why? Because it has a pour spout on it, and the juice can be squeezed (poured) directly into a jigger. As it stands now, with the Zulay squeezer I have to squeeze into an intermediate vessel first, then measure into the jigger. Of course, that's only when I'm being OCD about precision... for the most part I just figure 1/2 lime = 1/2 oz and squeeze directly into a cocktail shaker. If Zulay ever comes out with a reasonably priced 2-in-1 lemon/lime presser with a pour spout, I'll be one of the first to jump on it.

This product is very durable! It is metal and doesn't feel cheap nor will it break easily! Very simple to use! Perfect squeezer to get all the juice out with one squeeze! Highly recommend! Amazing product for the price too!

Have used a few times and works nicely. Good quality . Hope it holds up but so far so good

This “gadget” is amazing. Switched from old turn the lemon on a raised bumpy surface takes time and energy. This tool works quick and easy. What a dream come true!

I decided to buy this squeezer because I was tired of the plastic ones since they break and don’t last long. It works really well, definitely stronger than the plastic ones. It has a good size and I love the fact that they have a black option (I don’t like bright colors in my kitchen). Totally recommended!

Worked very well; juiced out all the half of the lemon; saves me time

Love the ease of use and the sturdiness of the product.

El color y modelo es muy lindo, pero se rompió depués de unos cuantos usos.
