Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Black & Decker CJ525 CitrusMate Plus Citrus Juicer
Customer Review: Black and Decker Citrusmate: Great Juice, Great Value
Summary: 5 Stars
Black and Decker Citrusmate is a simplistic small appliance with many good reasons to consider it for your kitchen. This juicer takes up little space, offers cord wrap storage underneath, features a reversible reamer, and produces fresh- squeezed juice for a much lower cost than other juicers.
Black and Decker Citrusmate requires little effort to extract the juice and the reamer is just as effective as the more expensive juicers at maximizing the amount of juice squeezed from your favorite fruit. The reamer on this juicer is reversible and the dual- action is activated by letting up on the pressure, then pressing again. Each time you do this, the reamer spins the opposite way. The back and forth action helps to squeeze out as much juice as possible. The pitcher will be filled with juice rather quickly as you move from one piece of fruit to the next.
Another feature I like with this juicer is its operation. There is no on/off switch and many consumers will find this unusual at first. But this is really for the better because with an on/off switch, you have to continuously flip the switch off and back on as you go from one piece of fruit to the next. The way this juicer is designed, there is no worry about messing with a switch. The juicer starts up when a piece of fruit is pressed against the reamer and stops when it is taken away.
Pulp is always an issue with any juicer, and while there is no pulp extractor, this juicer still has you covered. It collects the pulp and seeds in the strainer as you juice your fruit. When you are finished, you can scoop out the amount of pulp you like and add it to the juice itself. Or, if you don't like pulp, you can discard it and drink your juice pulp- free. This might seem a little on the manual side to some consumers, but the lack of special pulp extractors helps keep the device simple and trouble- free.
Fresh- squeezed juice is healthy and makes ordinary beverages taste even better than before. With Citrusmate, consumers have a means to extract juice without overspending on a juicer that contains more features than necessary. It's a surprisingly good small appliance and certainly an excellent value for the money.
Description of Black & Decker CJ525 CitrusMate Plus Citrus Juicer
This large-capacity juicer lets you squeeze a whole liter of juice directly into a refrigerator-ready serving pitcher for fresh cold juice anytime.Large 1-liter (quart-size) pitcherAdjustable pulp control Automatic self-reversing reamer with stirrer Strainer separates seeds from juice Easy-pour spout Small & large cones for lemons/lines & oranges/grapefruit Includesstorage cover Built-in cordwrapWith a capacity of more than a quart (34 ounces), this electric juicer can prepare family-size portions with little operator effort. Large and small cones fit on the reamer to accommodate different-size fruits. The reamer automatically reverses itself to extract the maximum amount of juice, while a stirrer presses juice from the pulp in the strainer. Finally, there's an adjustable control that regulates how much pulp goes into the juice, a feature margarita fanciers will welcome. For storage, the cord wraps in a slot around the base, and a cover protects against dust. Hand wash this juicer in warm soapy water. --Fred Brack
