Product Review
It's easy to juice citrus fruits with OXO's Lemon Reamer. The soft, comfortable handle absorbs pressure while you juice lemons, limes or oranges with ease. The juicing end is cast aluminum that has been highly polished to provide as much beauty as it does function.
Amazon.com Review
This reamer's soft handle--comfortable even after repeated twists and turns--absorbs pressure as the aluminum juicing end wrings out every last drop of lemony goodness. It's also great for limes, oranges, and grapefruits, and cleans up with one swipe of a sponge.
The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip, flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably, the pressure-absorbing, processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands, while still providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

Looks Nice - Doesn't Work, October 20, 2003

This reamer looks nice and is easy to clean, that's where my good comments end. This tool is too smooth to properly ream citrus. It just spins around with very little juice coming out of the lemon. Best reamer is a plain wood one. The wood has enough texture to properly ream and makes for a good grip. Most markets sell them for under $2.00

I prefer the wooden lemon reamer, January 3, 2003

Somehow, the edges aren't sharp enough, so it doesn't work that well. I purchased a wooden one at some later point, and I tend to favor it since it seems less slippery and has sharper edges.

Wooden Version is Better, May 28, 2005

I second what other cooks have stated here. OXO's wooden version of this citrus reamer is much better and three dollars cheaper to boot. The grooves on the wooden reamer are deeper and sharper and "catch" the sides of the fruit better, getting more juice out.
