Title: Sketchy Design
Review: I expected better performance for such an expensive juice press. The biggest issue has to do with the fit and finish of the cup and strainer cone. The cup and strainer cone fit very loosely and as a result they frequently separate on the upstroke because of the suction created between the press/fruit skin/strainer. A lot of time is spent reassembling the cup and cone while juicing. Also, the cup needs higher walls to contain the squirting juices. Some of the suction and squirting issues are remedied by cutting the fruit into quarters instead of halves. It works best with small to medium sized fruit (no luck with large grapefruit). Be sure to pull the lever down not toward you or the juice press will want to tip over. That being said, I will keep the juice press as it works reasonably well when the fruit is quartered and it is easy to clean. For the cost they should work out some of the bugs though.
