The Cuisinart CCJ-500P1 is a compact citrus juicer with a unique "Final-Spin" feature. This mode uses centrifugal force to extract the last bits of juice from the remaining pulp, helping to minimize waste. The motor includes an auto-reverse function that changes direction whenever you apply and release pressure, which helps navigate the various contours of the fruit for better yield.
The unit features a brushed stainless steel veneer and a universal reamer cone that fits everything from small limes to grapefruits. The pulp-control slider allows you to choose between three different settings. To keep the slider moving freely, it is helpful to rinse it thoroughly after each use, as dried juice can cause the plastic to stick. The snap-up spout helps prevent drips on the counter when you're finished.
The clear plastic housing is designed to be high-impact, though hand-washing can help prevent the clouding that sometimes occurs with frequent dishwasher use. This juicer's vertical design and small footprint make it an excellent choice for kitchens with limited counter space or for storing in a shallow cabinet.
For those who prefer a completely hands-free automatic pressing experience for their citrus, the Keerain Cordless Automatic Juicer provides a one-touch solution.
