Can this press also be used on grapefruit, oranges, and lemons? If not, what is the difference in design compared to a citrus press?

We have used this for grapefruit, oranges, and lemons with great success. It is more sturdy than other presses and is therefore more durable and reliable. We heartily endorse this press to anyone.

The carton indicates it can be used for citrus as well as pomegranates. We have used it only for pomos and it works very well. It looks like it would press citrus very nicely.

Grapefruit and oranges, yes! However, the "cone" core is probably too large for smaller fruit and would result in tearing the flesh. That said, the resulting juice would still be fine.

it can be used for oranges for sure. if Grapefruit is too large for the 4-inch diameter press then it may not work. lemons are too small for this press.

I use it with Grapefruit and Pomegranate only as I cannot have Orange Juice and have no need for Lemon juice... I guess it can be used with Oranges and Lemons as well. The main difference is the size (circumference) of the squeezing cylinder. It is fairly large to handle bigger fruits...Hope this helps.

YES! We just pressed two paper bags full of lemons in December. Filled empty water bottles with the juice and stuck them into the freezer. We love this press. Hubby and I picked close to 200 pomegranates from our two tress late summer/early fall and pressed 90% of them. Enjoyed drinking fresh, making jelly and froze the rest of the juice.

Sorry, I've never used mine to juice key limes. I have used it on some small regular limes and it worked ok and it works great on big limes, lemons and small oranges. If doing large oranges I half to cut them in quarters and then it works. I would try it the next time I have key limes, but if I was buying something to do key linem only, I would buy a small reamer type juicer.

Hello Andy! This juicer will be great for juicing citrus such as oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, etc. This unit uses a reamer to juice.

Of Course it can be used for citrus. these things are very stout. If they can squeeze a pom they can sure as heck squeeze an orange. Unfortunately the one I ordered was broken in transit so I ended up purchasing an OrangeX (which BTW works perfectly well on Poms). I may have received a flawed one. the company wanted to send me a new one but i already had the OrangeX.

Haven't tried it. I've done big grapefruit and it worked great. My guess it will do it as well or better than any other commercial press

I use it for citrus all the time. It's perfect. I don't peel them at all. But that depends on whether you like the somewhat bitter flavor of the oils in the skins which I really love. You can also grate them totally or partially. I use 2 whole oranges or 1 grapefruit, 1 cucumber, 1 carrot, 2 or 3 apples and a chunk of ginger root almost everyday. It's perfect.

No idea, however it is quite powerful. I have yet to meet a piece of citrus that wasn't thoroughly juiced. The only weakness is it tips some and could probably use a slightly larger base, otherwise this is as good as professional citrus juicers that I have used.

I haven't used it for grapefruit but my brother has one and he did, said it worked fine.

No you cannot, the orange, lemon and grapefruit are the only fruits that you can press with this machine. I have this machine for almost 2 years and I use it regularly pressing the citrus fruits and it works awesome. I hope this help. ƒº

I have used in on grapefruits and it works well. I have also used it on small manderins, not as easy, but doable.

I'm not sure about grape juice, but it works great for orange and lemon juice

It comes with two grinding cones. One is smaller than the other and is good for something the size of a lemon or lime. The larger cone is good for oranges. I don't believe either would work well on grapefruits.

i have used it only for lemons so far, maybe few times for oranges. sorry i could not help you.

You can use them on citrus fruits but I WOULD HIGHLY suggest cutting the rind off because it leaves such a bitter taste in the juice! Not pleasant at all!

Did not have any luck - tried many different ways was unbalanced - would work well with citrus, I returned the unit. Have two pomegranate bushes and returned to juicing with the skin removed.
