Best Citrus Juicer – Black & Decker CJ525 CitrusMate Plus Citrus Juicer
If you’re the type who doesn’t juice very often, only wants lime juice for margaritas, or cannot afford to get an expensive do-it-all type of juicer, I think a citrus juicer would do the trick.
In college, my girlfriend practically swore by this Black & Decker juicer to get her daily fix of OJ (orange juice to the uninitiated!).

Because of its high Vitamin C content, orange juice tends to oxidize pretty quick, so whenever my girlfriend used to juice with this juicer, she’d drink the juice as soon as it was done because it wasn’t the fastest of all juicers. But it was really cheap and generally pretty usable. The cones come in two sizes to accommodate all sorts of citrus fruit from limes to pink grapefruit, and rotate both clockwise and anticlockwise to squeeze out as much pulp as possible.
I wouldn’t like this juicer because the motor is pretty weak and pressing too hard on it causes it to jam. Also, I hate cleaning and this one has to hand washed in warm soapy water after use.
Black & Decker CJ525 CitrusMate – Summary
This juicer is the type you would call a hard reamer because all it does is squeeze out juice, which is why it’s only really suited for citrus fruits. My girlfriend likes the fact that she can control pulp content, because she abhors pulp. Because its cheap and generally good for its intended usage, I really recommend this juicer to those on a budget who don’t need to make fancy juice concoctions to get their daily juice fix!
