i love this gadget!
i saw Guy Fiete use this on his cooking shows and i thought that was a great thing to use if you are juicing alot of lemons or limes. Since I make homemade Limeade and Lemonade, i thought it would be perfect. Since OXO is such a great company for their gadgets, i went and ordered my citrus squeezer. I just love it! Also when my grocery store puts their produce on the reduced shelf...that is when i stock up on the limes and lemons and i go to town!

hard to use
I bought this at linens and things a few days ago and was thinking about returning it. I have only used it for lemons, and it is very difficult to squeese and leaves a lot of wasted juice in the lemon. I think it may be more effective for my husband since he has stronger hands.

One BIG advantage with this Squeezer:
I mostly squeeze "key" limes - those very small ones. I prefer them for cocktails, and indeed for most things requiring limes.
This squeezer has a feature that enables you to secure a tiny lime in it just about perfectly; it's the only hand squeezer I've seen that can do it.
If you look at the underside of the "top" cup, or "lid" of the squeezer, there's a perfectly round indentation. If you treat that as the bottom of the squeezer and place the lime-half in it face up, then close the basket portion over it, and flip the whole thing over so the basket's on the bottom again, where it belongs, this thing will squeeze that tiny lime like no other.
