You’ll Never Guess What the Juice Camera Looks Like/Does

Gizmodo US Edition — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 23:30:00 +0000

If I told you I was going to buy you a Juice Camera, what would you expect to see under the tree at Christmas? A camera shaped like a juice box? How did you know?

The 35 mm cameras come in five bright flavours, including Strawberry, Sunny, and Supermarket Mania. If getting the latter juice box, you can show off your regional pride and pick up the American, Asian, or European designs. There’s a flash in the lower right corner and a release that’s shaped like a straw. Tasty! [Fuuvi JP via Crunch Gear]

The iPod Touch 2G has finally gotten its own $US100 Mophie Juice Pack, which promises to double the device’s battery life. Recommended, with one caveat: it looks awfully fat on the super-slim new Touch. [Mophie]

2Juicy Orange Squeezer Too Rockin’ For One Hand

Addy Dugdale — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 14:00:00 +0000

Anyone who likes their, um, oranges, um, freshly-squeezed by hand in the morning should, perhaps, think about buying 2Juicy, a manual juicer from SuckUK. Anyone who doesn’t should stick with their Braun automatic one—then at least you’ll have one hand free for whatever else you like to do when you’re squeezing oranges. [SuckUK]

Gold-Plated Juicer Bleeds Fruit and Wallet Dry

Sometimes a product comes along and bites you on the arse in such a way that you don’t know whether to laugh, cry, or take out a loan. This gold-plated kitchen bitch — a snip at 1500 quid (that’s over $3,000, exchange-rate fans) is a live enzyme “nutrition extractor” that also works well at extracting money from your bank account and rationality from your person. It also turns the phrase “carat juice” from a spelling mistake into a sad yet viable proposition.A word from a wise woman: only a tit would splash out $3K on something that ends up smeared in spinach juice. There is also a stainless steel version which will set you back Â£499 ($1,016) — so that’s alright, then (yes, that is sarcasm you can detect in my tone, I’m afraid.)

Juicer Hugs Countertops, But Look Out!

Charlie White — Fri, 10 Aug 2007 18:15:00 +0000

This design concept for a juicer by Gibli Ortal is quite beautiful, but perhaps its creator didn’t realize that it might end up in a rather precarious location. It certainly seems like a great place for a juicer, hugging the countertop right there within easy reach. But, uh, it could end up being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

It must have some sort of grippy backing underneath its lovely L-shaped form, holding it in place, and then when you’re done with that it takes up very little space hanging on the wall and generally looking pretty:

Just don’t bend over. We heard yesterday that a large percentage of people clean their houses in the nude, but we wouldn’t want to back into this thing while scrubbing the floor, especially when it’s running at full tilt. [Apartment Therapy]

Metrokane L-Press Squeezes Manna from the Gods Out of Mere Oranges

Seamus Byrne — Wed, 18 Jul 2007 16:49:31 +0000

What’s so special about an orange juicer, you say ? This Metrokane L-Press is the first new design for such a device in 10 years, and this one has a rack-and-pinion gearing, just like the steering on the finest sports cars. So get this, that means you can press down with 1,000 pounds of leverage using this sucker. That oughta get the juice out.Never mind those electric machines that pulverize the stuff, this is the best way to get that refreshing juice out of those oranges, with minimal effort using its soft-touch handle that turns 540 degrees. It even has its own 25-ounce stainless steel pouring pitcher. And check out that high-style industrial design. Oo-la-la.

Once you’ve tried you some ice-cold fresh-squeezed OJ, you’ll never go back to that store-bought swill in a cardboard box. Available in stainless steel with either gray or orange handles, this overengineered jewel is probably worth its $100 retail price. [Metrokane, via Appliancist]
