To conclude this section. The Juicy Salif as an everyday fruit juicer is not functional. Its design is not genius in terms of usability. And at this point, it is clear that if you are after a juicer that actually juices your fruit, go with a conventional cheap juicer. It will work far better. WORLD DESIGN SPOTLIGHT: Citrus Spray, by Papila Studio (with the collaboration of joanrojeski)", wdcvalencia2022.com, 5 December 2022 By 2003, a total of more than 500,000 of the iconic design artifacts had been sold. [10] Critical reception [ edit ] Cleaning- The juicer tip, sharp in the way it is designed, is a serious hazard whilst cleaning and could cause injury. However, I believe some common sense can overcome this ‘issue’.

At the end of the 19th century a large number of different models of lemon squeezers were patented in the United States. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office lists over 200 patents for lemon squeezers, the majority of which were registered between 1880 and 1910. The oldest of these patents was issued to Lewis S. Chichester on July 3, 1860 for a cast iron squeezer. The stated purpose of the invention was "to obtain a simple, economical and durable implement whereby lemons may be squeezed for domestic purposes with much less power and with far greater facility than by the ordinary squeezers in general use."

Messy- There are complaints that the juicer is messy, and will end up with more juice on your counter than in the glass. I would say this is dependant on the fruit you choose to juice.

The design of the 'Juicy Salif' is innovative, futuristic and relatively functional. As opposed to other citrus squeezers, the 'Juicy Salif' allows juice to flow straight into a glass (pips and pulp included!), rather than passing through a sieve into a dish, and provided a simplified alternative design option for an everyday kitchen task. The form of the squeezer was inspired over a lunch of squid garnished with lemons on the Isle of Capri, and therefore has much in common with this curious marine species - long legs and an inverted, drooping body. It is an excellent example of innovative design with a sense of humour and of high production standards of mass market articles, for which Alessi is so well known, and which helped to position the firm at the forefront of international design from the 1980s.
