About this deal

Pips and Flesh- The juicer has no catchment area for seeds, pips, and flesh and so the user will have to fish out the seeds from the glass by hand, which is less than ideal. The instructions mention nothing of this, and so it is clear that this was not taken into consideration whilst it was designed. The typical fruit juicer has a flat bowl-like shape at the bottom to catch the juice, seeds and all, that can then be tipped to receive the liquid.

Aldo Rossi "didn't believe that form follows function" says Alberto Alessi

Other designers have also developed innovative citrus squeezers, which respond to new usage scenarios by considering the ergonomic aspects their products as important as aesthetics. In 2009, Joseph Joseph introduced the Catcher, a pestle squeezer that filters out seeds, designed by Graeme Davies. In 2011, the Dutch company Royal VKB introduced the Citrange, a playful double sided hand juicer which can be placed straight onto the glass, designed by the Belgian designer Quentin de Coster.

The lemon squeezer is "an artwork and 'conversation piece', which is desired by people being an abstract sculpture", The Juicy Salif lemon squeezer is one of the most iconic design objects of the 20 th century, since it represents the Italian houseware company Alessi like no other product. WORLD DESIGN SPOTLIGHT: Citrus Spray, by Papila Studio (with the collaboration of joanrojeski)", wdcvalencia2022.com, 5 December 2022 The instructions explain simply how to use the juicer. However, it does not perform. I will break down the problems with the usability of the juicer in sections. The patents filed around the turn of the 19th/20th century show a variety of different functional principles. They range from small models to be used at the table (with which individual lemon wedges can be squeezed out over a glass or dish) to mechanically complex equipment which is firmly attached to the kitchen table or counter with screw clamps. It is noteworthy that nearly all of these patents merely put pressure on the lemon or lemon half, without the fruit being rotated. The patents vary mainly in their different mechanisms how they create this pressure. Usually, leverage or screw presses were used. It is no longer possible to reconstruct how many of those patents were actually produced for the market.

Specifications

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." [2] 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. 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. The Juicy Salif was included in ‘Values of Design’ at the V&A Gallery, Design Society in Shenzhen, China in 2017. But the device is not easy to use, and its polished aluminum finish is vulnerable to corrosion and producing an unpleasant taste, as conceded in its official instructions. [6] The kitchen tool is not dishwasher-safe, and must be washed by hand, while taking care to avoid injury from its sharp point.
