W<\/span>e squeezed thirty pounds of oranges, lemons and limes to find the best citrus juicer, and we chose Urban Trend – Tango<\/a> as the best manual citrus juicer. Its ergonomic design and two interchangeable reamer cones make this hand-held juicer ideal for a quick glass of fresh OJ as you\u2019re running out the door. We also like the Dash – JB065AQ <\/a>as the best electric citrus juicer for its seven pulp modes, ease of cleanup and great price.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re dedicated to the juicing life, then you may already own a high-end juice extractor or blender like Vitamix, which we reviewed in our article about the best blenders<\/a>. You could easily spend hundreds of dollars on a high-end model, but for this review, we focused on the small citrus juicers \u2014 manual and electric \u2014 in the $10-$25 price range.<\/p>\n After reading consumer reviews, we narrowed our search down from dozens of almost identical juicers to juicers with a unique feature, such as Urban Trend\u2019s interchangeable reamer cones<\/a> or Bnunwish\u2019s twist-and-squeeze lid<\/a> or the Sunhanny<\/a> that can also separate an egg. Sometimes, simple is best, so we also chose to test the type of metallic handheld juicer,\u00a0like the IMUSA<\/a>, that you see used in every bar and restaurant,<\/p>\n There are several inexpensive electric juicers available, and we wanted to see if they were actually more convenient and user-friendly than the manual juicers. The primary advantage to using an electric citrus juicer is that you\u2019re able to adjust how much (or little) pulp will be processed into the juice. The three electric juicers we tested had different modes for pulp adjustment, but only our top pick, Urban Trend, was effective.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n We tested the manual citrus juicers by squeezing Navel oranges, limes and lemons and measured how much juice was extracted. On average, the Navel oranges produced \u00bc cup of juice, limes produced two tablespoons and lemons produced three tablespoons.<\/p>\n Factors we considered were:<\/p>\n For the electric juicers, we doubled the amount of fruits squeezed with the manual juicers, since their receptacles were designed to hold 25\u201332 ounces of juice. The electric juicers produced the same amount of juice per fruit, but two of the juicers\u2019 filters were clogged by pulp and pips after juicing a single orange.<\/p>\n We also considered whether the pulp-adjustment feature worked, how easy the juicers were to clean and if it was indeed more convenient to use an electric juicer over a manual juicer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nTable of contents<\/h2>\n
