Product Description Whether the need is for fresh lemons and limes for margaritas or fresh raspberry juice for a refreshing juice smoothie the OJex Juicer is equipt to handle all of your juicing needs. OrangeX, recipient of a gold in Business Week and the 2000 Industrial Design Excellence Award for their OJex juicer design have a winner for you. Made from cast iron and 18/10 stainless steel this item is as durable as it is functional. The rubberized feet will allow for greater stability and the small stylish nature of this juicer will fit perfectly in any kitchen. Also comes with an additional fruit attachment for juicing grapes, berries, apple, pineapples and other soft fruits. .com Simple to operate and easy to clean, this mechanical device quickly and easily presses juice from all citrus fruits. It's made of enameled iron so it's heavy and stable and has suction feet for further insurance against sliding during use. A three-step process--lifting the handle, placing half a fruit on the conical strainer, pulling the lever--is all that's needed to produce a flow of juice into a container on the cup rest beneath the juicer's head. The strainer and basket are made of 18/10 stainless steel. Like the plastic cup rest and the cone that presses against the top of a fruit, the strainer and basket remove with a twist and are dishwasher-safe. The housing wipes clean with a damp cloth. Shapely and compact, the juicer measures 10 inches high, 8 inches wide (including the handle with its rubber grip), and 11 inches deep (including the handle). It carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Best Juicer ever made!
Bought this for my Sister in Law in Florida, well over 10 years ago, she still uses it nearly every day!

Broke twice
This juicer worked amazing, for all of 20 minutes before it broke. Sent it back to Amazon and replaced for a new one, which broke within the first 10 minutes. While it looks sturdy, there are flaws in the metal and it's very fragile. Breaking once, okay.. but twice before even 30 minutes of use is unacceptable. This item should be discontinued immediately.

Can't make it juice properly
While it's very sturdy and low counter profile, the oranges seem to split from the force of the top, needing to be hand finished to juice the pulp. Maybe I've assembled it wrong, but there was no parts installation included

Good But Not Perfect Juicer
Not only do I own this juicer, but for four years, I sold it, so I feel quite qualified to write this review.For a small, manual juicer, this is a heavy item (cast iron). It's very easy to clean; anyone who disagrees has obviously never used an electric juicer with sharp, complex or electric moving parts (this juicer has none of those things). It's a simple machine with only three removable pieces: the strainer, the juice funnel and the hard resin base that the juice receptacle (your glass) sits on. It does have suction cups that hold it in place, but it definitely sticks better to some surfaces than others (sticks best to granite or manufactured quartz, pretty well on laminate, not so well on wood countertops). The lever operates easily, and once you have the handle pressed completely down--it's not much of a struggle--it will extract juice to the point of the fruit being almost wrung dry. It works on citrus fruits as small as key limes and as large as grapefruits.Worth noting: when pressing down on the extraction handle, I always put my other hand on top of the juicer, for stability, just in case (I have formica countertops). Also, you can't use a really tall glass; there's about a 6 inch clearance between the base and the spout. Overall, I enjoy this juicer and use it more often than my Breville Extractor, which, while fabulous, is a hateful machine to clean.

Happy Camper
This is my first review. All the negative reviews have prompted me to do so. I am here to order another Orange X juicer for my father. I have had one for myself for five years. While all of the complaints I have read about are true to some degree I feel they are grossly overstated. I find mine easy to clean (much more so than any electric I have had). The tilting I hardly notice (would not have thought of except for these reviews so it can't be that bad). My biggest complaint would be the device locking up after pressing the fruit. It's not that bad just frustrating when I'm in a hurry. I just have to wiggle the handle around until it frees up. All in all I find it's speed both in juicing and clean up a big plus for someone on the go (I keep mine on the counter, use it daily and have occasionally juiced a gallon at a time) and no problems with durability. Four stars because it is not perfect but it is very good and the best manual juicer out there.P.S. When I was in construction we joked about someone needing to initiate their new hammer by smacking themselves really good with it. This almost always occurred as a result of the person not being used to the feel of the new hammer. It just took a while for them to adjust to the difference. It is my opinion that is all that is required for you to enjoy your Orange X. You just have to practice with it for a while before you get the hang of it. Then you'll be juicing like pro.

simple to use
This is my second Juicer. This one is being used by employees at my company. Oranges/grapefruits are given to us and nothing goes to waste.

Good Quality Will Last Forever
If you enjoy freeze squeezed juice this manual juicer works very well and requires minimal clean up. Very heavy so doesn't slide around on the counter.

Don't waste the money!
The product worked OK for about 2 months, although it was rather small so a large orange would have to be cut in half. After two months to thing completely fell apart, I'm talking the bolts inside of it totally snapped with an orange stuck in it. Would not recommend to anyone.
