BTipsy Lemon Squeezer Review

Lemonade is a staple in my household.  Most people associate lemonade with summer, but we like it all year long.  That goes without saying, we go through a lot of lemons!  And not just lemons, but limes as well since we're equally crazy about lime-aid.

Most of my life I've squeezed lemons the old fashioned way, by rolling them and squeezing the juice out by hand.  This way works, but it's time consuming, and it's hard to get all of the juice out.  There had to be a better way.

I bought a cheap-o plastic lemon squeezer at Wal-mart and tried it out.  It was almost worse than doing it by hand!  It was way too small for even regular sized lemons, so I found myself having to reposition the lemon several times to get different areas of it.  Not to mention some of the juice would roll down the handle and onto the counter top.  There still had to be a better way.

I was lucky enough to have the chance to review a BTipsy lemon squeezer in exchange for an honest review.  I was honestly pretty excited about it.  As soon as the package arrived, I knew I was going to love it.  You can feel the quality of it.  It's made of stainless steel, and heavy enough to know you have an excellent product, but  not too heavy to be annoying.  It's hard enough to accommodate large lemons, and is designed so the juice won't roll back down the handle.  I couldn't wait to try it out!

Here it is compared to my old, plastic squeezer, which is going into the trash today!

I especially love the fact that they print over and over on the box how much your satisfaction means to them, and lists their contact info.  Some companies make it almost impossible to find their contact info, but you can tell BTipsy really cares about customer satisfaction.
