The Citrus Squeezer That Punches Above Its Weight

Citrus Squeezer

 

 

 

 

Some gadgets promise to change your life. Others barely change your fruit. The Amco Aluminum Citrus Squeezer does both, and neither, in the most aggressively yellow way imaginable.

Let’s rewind to 2014, when I first wrote about this glorious fist-sized metal contraption. Back then, it was fresh, gleaming, and vaguely resembled something you’d find in a plumber’s toolbox. And now? In 2025, after a decade of global pandemics, AI takeovers, and TikTok pasta trends, it’s still here. And it still bloody works.

The Pitch

No electricity, no batteries, no Bluetooth, no app. Just aluminum, enamel, and your ability to apply pressure. This thing extracts juice with the same merciless efficiency as a Formula 1 pit crew changing tyres.

It claims to deliver pulp-free, seedless juice with minimal effort—and for once, the marketing isn’t lying. Three steps: cut lemon, insert lemon, crush lemon. It’s the kind of simple brilliance you’d expect if NASA designed kitchen tools during their lunch break.

Design & Build

Imagine a lemon had a baby with a pair of pliers. That’s what this looks like. Bright yellow. Cast aluminum. Heavy in hand. And when you squeeze, it flexes less than a submarine hull.

After a decade, the paint may chip, but the mechanism? Still smoother than your uncle’s pickup lines at weddings. Dishwasher-safe, though I prefer washing it by hand—partly to preserve the enamel, partly because I’m terrified it’ll crush the dishwasher.

Features

• No pulp, no seeds, no excuses
• Survives drops, tantrums, and questionable citrus
• Aluminum construction, which is like titanium for kitchen people
• Dishwasher-safe unless you’re the dishwasher, in which case: run.

It doesn’t auto-sync with your fridge, but it also won’t break down when you’re juicing your fifth lemon for a suspiciously complicated cocktail.

Use Case

Margaritas? Sorted. Salad dressings? A breeze. Passive-aggressively out-squeezing your neighbor’s fancy electric juicer at brunch? Glorious.

This isn’t just a citrus press—it’s a declaration of war against underperforming lemons.

Final Verdict

You can spend $200 on an electric juicer that clogs, screams, and eventually dies in a puff of citrus-scented smoke—or you can buy this. Once.

It’s not perfect. It requires hand strength. It’s unapologetically manual. But it’s one of the rare things in 2025 that doesn’t need an update, a firmware patch, or a subscription. It just works.

And honestly, in this age of AI-powered egg-boilers and app-controlled spatulas, that’s bloody refreshing.
