- In 1990 Philippe Starck designed an iconic lemon squeezer, for Alessi... But does it work? In this review I demonstrate the lemon squeezer, as I try one for the first time!
Indeed the most controversial squeezer of all time. Always love Philippe Starck's work!
So much effort just to squeeze those lemons, but i'll still want one for my home!
Nice juicer from a darling bridesmaid. Lovely artistic addition to your collection of items that spark joy. But your reaction after a shot of straight lemon juice made me laugh out loud after a long, tiring day. Priceless indeed!
Thank you so much for an incredible review of the squeezer! I will definitely purchase one for myself!
Haaaaa....you are fun! Nice lemon juicer!❤️😘
It sure is fancy . I likely would use it as deco ,it is so fancy looking as dust collector .Too artsy for kitchen work . Would look great in living room .I would keep using my old plastic one for lemons and let guest wonder where did I got such a artsy sculpture .
Mine is on the kitchen window sill. I love to look at it when I am working... It sparks joy! xx
It is great to look and enjoy and every time you look at it it brings happy memories of happy day and of your brides maid who was very cute brides maid .
Love the design. Drinking lemon juice neat 😖 lol!
Love the style of it, does remind me of "50" sci-fi
That is cute. I love that you tried to drink it.... hahaha I'm still laughing.
I bought this as a "citrus juicer" not "lemon juicer", and I thought it should be suitable for oranges as the most common citrus fruit out there. Well, it's not. It's too small. Apparently the "10 out of 10" it received in this review is also a bit unfair because 1) the lemons in the end were not squeezed well, any other juicer would give you more juice per fruit, 2) this lady seemed to be overly cautious all the time, and 3) it still became unstable at a certain point
Was on the Absolutely Fabulous tv series sitting on the kitchen bench.
Thankyou.
Everyone’s missing the point Philippe Starks work is designed to be impractical, he made a a kettle that burns you
grreat vid, thanks!!
When life gives you lemons: *buy £40 juice squeezer*
I've never heard of or seen that before. It looks cool, but I suspect there are more efficient squeezers... less expensive ones, too! It probably looks wonderful and stylish out on your counter top, though. :-)
P.S. Add some stevia and water to your lemon juice to make a nice, diabetic-safe lemonade. Much tastier than drinking it straight up!
Good idea! I think I crossed the thin line between spontaneity and stupidity... Haha! xx
Yeah, I was kind of looking on in horror, but then I wondered if you were one of those folks who actually enjoys lemons straight up. My son is like that. We'd watch him in fascinated horror after fish dinners, eating all the leftover lemon wedges.
looks good:)
Thank you stylish lady !
Looks a bit like a rocket ship! :) Lemon juice straight is a bit... strong! :D
I remember my friend buying this over 20years ago; she loved it but wouldn't use it as a lemon squeezer it was an ornament. It's very mid century looking to me, a bit of Eames I would say.
Ooh, just Googled that! Interesting! (See how I looked it up instead of asking you to explain? That should be the LAW). xx
My first reply sounds a bit pouncey, grr at myself, lol
No it doesn't! It was interesting. xx
Oh that's good, you never know how things get taken via messages. I have just calmed down after me and my son have been cracking up because we found a site that publishes unfortunate last names that marry each other. I was crying so much my son was worried about the hysteria; thank goodness we live right by the Thames Barrier in Greenwich, ha ha.
post modern design
Reminds me of the tripods in War of The Worlds! I wish you joy of your lemon squeezer, but I'll stick with ma plastic jobbie.
That plastic one gets dumped in the back of the cupboard though... this is on display! Haha! Granted I waited 20 years until somebody else bought it for us. ;)
I wrote my comment before I saw the whole video/ I almost choked on my tea when I saw the last bit where you tried the juice. Oh Val, you do make me laugh. New Unruly videos spark joy for me!
I have never seen one of these....
You have now Heather! You're welcome. :D xx
I'm watching this video cos my home work is useless inventions and everyone saying its great...
*;-;*
hahaha I think you should try it with an oranges if you aren't going to dilute that lemon juice. XD
101th, 101st like!
is it th or st like 1st?
101st I reckon. Thank you! xx
That is a weapon 😭😭😭
