Product Description
Amazon.com Review
As attractive as it is professionally functional, this chrome juicer generates powerful pressure to quickly squeeze every drop of juice out of oranges, grapefruits, lemons, and limes. And it extracts sweet juice without scraping bitter oil from the fruits' skins, as electric juicers often do. Its rack-and-pinion gear system and bar handle generate pressure with little effort, and the spring-action handle snaps back automatically for convenience and speed. For stability, there's a grip for the left hand while the right hand pulls down the handle. Accompanying the juicer is a 2-cup, mirror-finish, stainless-steel juice cup with a removable strainer/cone for easy cleanup. The juicer measures 17 inches high, 5-1/2 inches wide, and 7 inches deep, and its moving parts carry a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
Editor's Choice:Our choice for best citrus juicer under $100, Metrokane's Chef's Juicer is a beautiful piece of equipment, and not so large (17 inches high, 5-1/2 inches wide, and 7 inches deep) that it wouldn't fit on almost any kitchen counter. And it should be displayed, as it's fairly elegant, with a shining chrome finish. But the real plus is in the final product--the juice.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Cheap metal,
By Jeff Miller (Waxhaw, NC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Metrokane Chef's Juicer (Kitchen)
When I first got the juicer, I absolutely loved it! Finally, fresh O.J.! Worked well, was able to juices 10-20 lbs. of oranges in minutes. However, I did get the feeling there was still plenty more left in the halves. Then one day the gears felt "sticky", and then on one more pull of the arm the metal body just cracked and broke! Right where the arm attaches to the body it just cracked apart. This was not mechanical. it was just poor quality.

This review is from: Metrokane Chef's Juicer (Kitchen)
Nice looking chrome gadget but we found it to perform poorly. The holding glass is small and tilted very easily. The halves stucked to the cup on the lever. You have to remove the fruit halves with your fingers (very impractical and messy). The cranker does not produce enough leveler pressure often leaving plenty of juice in the halves, no matter how hard you push. If you push to hard the stability of the juicer is not good. There are no suction feet to hold the machine in place. Can't recommend it. Far from being a so call "professional" equipment.

works fine - with a little squirt of WD 40!,

This review is from: Metrokane Chef's Juicer (Kitchen)
When I first got this it worked great but then - about a day later the gears started freezing up. I read somewhere on here that someone else complained of "shavings" from the gears.I think they were strong arming theirs. I gave mine a little shot of WD 40 and let it run down in the gear area and it works GREAT! No problems at all. It does take some muscle to really extract the juice and you can only do one half of a fruit at the time but it will handle anything from small grapefruits to limes. Want a real good drink? (I like Mt. Dew) Take a lime and half it. Squeeze the juice out and add it to your regular Mt. Dew. To me THAT'S how a lime flavored drink should taste! mmmm-good!
