I was looking for a simple juicer for the crop of lemons on our tree. Due to arthritis in my hands, using my old fashioned "push and twist" style manual one had become too difficult. Even as I began unpacking this juicer I was falling in love with it. It was very streamlined and uncomplicated. It came apart for easy storage in a compact space - essential in my tiny kitchen. Then when I began using it for the first time, I was very impressed. It was so simple and easy to use, and more importantly, for me, pain free! I cut, then juiced each lemon as I went - this was easier on my hands as It varied the type of movement as I worked. It may have also been useful for the machine, as I had no problem with the motor getting warm (a problem some juicers have, if you read ... MoreI was looking for a simple juicer for the crop of lemons on our tree. Due to arthritis in my hands, using my old fashioned "push and twist" style manual one had become too difficult. Even as I began unpacking this juicer I was falling in love with it. It was very streamlined and uncomplicated. It came apart for easy storage in a compact space - essential in my tiny kitchen. Then when I began using it for the first time, I was very impressed. It was so simple and easy to use, and more importantly, for me, pain free! I cut, then juiced each lemon as I went - this was easier on my hands as It varied the type of movement as I worked. It may have also been useful for the machine, as I had no problem with the motor getting warm (a problem some juicers have, if you read some reviews). The small juicing cone fits onto the spindle for juicing and the larger cone fits over the small cone for larger citrus fruit. There is a stainless steel filter which separates the seeds from the juice. The spout has two positions: down/open lets the juice flow out into a glass or other container( not supplied) for collection. I found that this position caused the juice to splash out of the container, as it had quite a drop into the container. So, I chose the other position: up/closed and collected the juice in the shallow "bowl" around the juicer cone. When it became full enough, then I lifted this bowl up, directed the spout more closely into the container I had selected for the juice, pushed the spout into the open position and the juice flowed in neatly without all the messy splashing. Brilliant! After use it was so easy to clean, just rinse everything off, then into a sink-full of warm suds, and wipe/brush all the surfaces with your normal "dishwashing implement". If you want to keep it on your bench top for a daily orange juice, all you need do is pop the clear plastic cover over the juicing cones and juice bowl. If you have enough room in your pantry, you can just store it on a shelf. If, like me, you need to reduce it's height to go in a drawer, then everything above the sleek stainless steel base can be removed to store separately, this includes the spindle, so it becomes quite compact - a great feature (reduced to 16cm in height. The cord stores neatly underneath the base. All in all a great product at a great price. I'm very happy!

I like how it looks on the bench, stylish yet not taking too much space. Does the job well for a glass of juice, which is what Im after. Other machines are too large, I have one & store it away most of the time end up not using much. Parts are easy to clean which is perfect.

Powerful and efficient, nothing to complain about the most important part which is pressing... BUT the weak point is the mechanism used to close the spout that is supposed to prevent juice dripping out of the bowl, it has a very weak spring and after a few open & close, it lacks enough pressure to seal properly the bowl, resulting in juice dropping on the benchtop. Not much to do here this is a design and quality fault. Does not prevent the unit to work but very annoying specially on a new product. Tefal used to make the exact same design model ZP600033 but it had a better spring. Unfortunately, no longer available in Australia.
