The juice yield from this squeezer was fine, but it definitely required a little more effort than similar models.

Turning off the personalised advertising setting won’t stop you from seeing Etsy ads, but it may make the ads you see less relevant or more repetitive. In the case of the Chef’n FreshForce Citrus Juicer, the middle bowl was connected to a hinge that helped with pressing the metal bowl down into a citrus half. With conventional hand reamers the extracted juice needs to be strained before use, to remove any unwanted pips and fruit pulp. Since it doesn’t scrape the inside of the citrus as a reamer would, there was much less pulp and all of the seeds were caught by this model's bowl.

We did have to cut some particularly poky ends off of a few lemons to get them to work in this squeezer, but it’s a good thing to do anyway, and an incredibly minor inconvenience—especially when you’re already slicing lemons in half.Most reamers with an attached cup are meant to sit flat on a table while you press down, but they’re hard to hold on to and can slip around.

Because the Chef’n FreshForce handheld citrus juicer was our top pick in previous years, we were excited to try the brand’s countertop press, the Chef’n Fresh Force Tabletop Citrus Press. In contrast, a press-style juicer, like our winner, the Chef'n FreshForce Citrus Juicer, relies on a different method: you place the citrus halve inside the cup, then push the top onto it; juice comes out through the holes on the bottom.The juice filtered directly into its carafe and at 37% juice yield, it trailed just behind the Chef’n FreshForce Citrus Juicer in performance and speed. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. For high-yield citrus juicing that won’t leave your hands covered in acidic juices and oils, the Müeller definitely gets the job done.
