Citrus Juicer Reviews

When you are looking for a citrus juicer, you will have to make the decision of whether to get a manual citrus juicer or an electric citrus juicer. Each type has its advantages and disadvantages and if you are on the fence about which type of juicer to buy, you will need to know them in order to make a sound purchasing decision.

If you are a very frugal shopper and your number one concern when making purchases is saving money, then a simple manual citrus juicer will be right up your alley. As there is no motor and no moving parts, these are inexpensive to manufacture and therefore inexpensive to buy. Also, since they do not run on electricity, they cost nothing to use. For these reasons, if price is your only consideration, you will want to check out the manual citrus juicers available.

Electric citrus juicers run the gamut from economically priced to astronomically priced. However, it should also be noted that some models can be had at bargain prices. Unless you are dead set against them, then they would well worth your time to take a look at them.

Once you have an idea of much you want to spend, you will need to know how easy each type is to operate. Manually citrus juicers are deceptively simple to use: just twist the fruit over the reamer to make juice. However, simple to use does not always mean easy to use. If you have a lot of fruit to juice you’re going to have to do it all by hand which can get very tiresome, especially if you just don’t have the knack for manually juicing.

Electric citrus juicers, on the other hand, may appear intimidating but most are quite easy to use. A flick of the switch is generally all it takes to get one going. The best part is that operating one requires very little effort, thus making them both simple and easy to use.

All of this is well and good, but eventually these things have to be cleaned up. With a manual citrus juicer, all you have to do is pop it in the dishwasher or give it a quick run through the sink. In this respect, they are fast and easy. However, as you have to juice by hand, they can make quite a mess in their own right and this additional clean up should be factored in.

An electric citrus juicer may take a bit of time and effort to take apart, but once they are disassembled, most are dishwasher safe. What’s nice is that most if not all mess is contained within in the unit requiring little additional clean up.

As you can see, there are both good and bad points no matter which choice you make. In the end, whether you go with a manual citrus juicer or an electric citrus juicer, make sure you weigh the options carefully so you’ll be happy with your final decision.
