Joseph Joseph Helix Citrus Juicer
Product number: 72243
While many conventional manual juicers rely on grip strength alone, and using a citrus reamer can end in a sticky mess, this innovative Helix Citrus Juicer from Joseph Joseph uses the rotational power of a helix to do all the hard work for you.
How it works
Just pop half an orange, lemon or lime into the stainless steel bowl in the bottom part, engage the top part into the helical groove and push the handles together. The helix design draws the two pieces together with very little pressure from you, juice flows freely into your glass or measuring jug and all the pips and pith are held neatly inside. An ideal swift solution when you’re rustling up a lemon drizzle cake or want a glass of freshly-squeezed vitamin C at breakfast time.
Other features
Made from durable stainless steel and nylon, the two separate parts make for really easy cleaning.
Joseph Joseph Helix – the science bit
The design team at Joseph Joseph worked out that using a 180° helical twist would mean cooks could utilise their upper body strength, using the naturally strong muscle groups in arms and shoulders rather than relying on having a firm grip. The resulting Helix range of products makes mashing, ricing, juicing and crushing garlic much easier than in conventional lever-press versions.

so easy to use as I have arthritis & it makes it easy every time
This certainly squeezes a lemon without the need to grip or twist firmly, although it exercised a set of shoulder muscles which I evidently do not otherwise use. In principle it is a good idea, but there are some drawbacks. A good deal of juice is left in the lemon when it is fully squashed. Any wax from the fruit skin is difficult to clean out of the cup if your fingers are stiff. The squeezer is both large and heavy, awkward to store. In spite of its size, it will not take an orange. Would I buy it again? Probably not, because I am going to have to buy a reamer as well for oranges.
