We bought this to process pomegranates. I was doubtful that it would do very well in extracting their juice. I was astonished how well it worked. On small and medium sized fruit it presses out virtually every last drop of juice. On larger fruit you might need to reposition once or twice to get the edges. I worried it would clog but the seeds are kept in place inside the rind. We love the height. It makes it easy to get a glass or large bowl under the drain hole. Cleaning couldn't be easier. Everything comes out and washes easily. Plan on storing it with the handle down as that seems to be the position it wants to return to. Very sturdy. Very stable. Stays in place on the counter.
