can't take the pressure,

This review is from: Proctor Silex 66332 Juicit Citrus Juicer (Kitchen)
after breaking it (like everyone else) i opened it up and found the problem. at the bottom of the shaft is a thin plastic extension that pushes down on a metal plate when you push down on the juicer. this plate then touches another plate to complete the circuit and start the motor. a little too much downward force will break that little plastic extension off the main shaft, so the plates are never made to touch. if the main shaft weren't so cheaply made, this juicer would be great. as is, it is useless. they should at least offer a replacement part, but I can't find one. also, the power cord could be longer.

This review is from: Proctor Silex 66332 Juicit Citrus Juicer (Kitchen)
I don't think you can find a better, easier to use citrus juicer at any price. It's gone up a couple of bucks since I bought mine, but it is still the best deal available without question.
It's fast, stable on the counter, converts to a serving pitcher when you're done juicing, and it's absolutely a cinch to clean up. I can't think of anything Proctor Silex could do to improve this product.
If you're in the market for a citrus juicer (and fresh-squeezed is so far superior to anything you can buy in the grocery store) you can't do better than this one. Buy it.

Buy the older model for juicer perfection.,

This review is from: Proctor Silex 66332 Juicit Citrus Juicer (Kitchen)
I checked the reviews here for this newer model of the juicer I have and found that the newer model doesn't have very good reliability. If it works, it works great, but many of them break in the first few uses. The same thing happened to a friend of mine who bought the Black and Decker version of a citrus juicer after envying my 20-year-old Proctor Silex Juicit. The good news is that the 20-year-old model is still widely available on eBay. Go look for a Proctor Silex Juicit that has been used but still works great from a seller with a high rating (99.5% positive feedback) and you can't go wrong. Mine doesn't have a catch pitcher like the new one. The juice pours from the ceramic reamer(its ceramic crisp edges are another plus over B&D's plastic parts) through a metal strainer into a funnel that guides it into a bowl or other container that you provide. It may not be as handy, but it has worked on at least a weekly basis for over 20 years now!
