I was on the fence for quite some time about purchasing the citrus press due to the cost. I’m glad I finally bought it. It’s pretty easy to assemble, use and more importantly to clean. I have only used it for a few weeks so can’t comment on the durability. The press top cup seems to be a weak point as per some reviews and I can imagine why, it might loosen due to wear and tear over a period of time. But for now I’m happy with the product :)
