It depends on your juicing volume. We use a Sunkist J1 Commercial Electric Juicer but we juice a lot; 4 bars, dining room, 3 meals/day in a hotel. The Breville CPXL is an alternative for 1/3rd the cost; though I don't have any first-hand knowledge as to longevity. If you're squeezing grapefruits and oranges, you'll want a manual press at the very least. The Hamilton Beach 932 is the industry standard but other much less expensive options exist. The 932 is faster and easier to use but may wear out faster due to its gearsets, requiring replacement parts. Considering the minimal cost, it is imperative that you keep a hand press or two around in case your primary juicer commits harakiri. Norpro and Amco both make excellent units. For less than the cost of the Norpro, you can get both Amco's orange and lemon/lime presses.

We juice daily. We also have a centrifugal juicer for pineapple and other harder fruits/vegetables. We mix 1 part fresh pineapple juice with 3 parts canned, unsweetened, not-from-concentrate pineapple juice. Except for the fancy bars primarily, few have switched to fresh pineapple juice. The good canned stuff is generally perfectly fine.

~Good luck!

resteraunt-grade juicer (like this https://www.amazon.com/Sunkist-J-1-Commercial-Citrus-Juicer/dp/B003ASMA9I) and elbow grease. I did an entire case of limes (about two liters) in like five minutes today. Precut all the limes and throw them in a pan, put on some music with a fast beat, and get a good rhythm going.

The amount of labor the Sunkist J-1 has saved me has more than bought itself back. You can find refurbs for way less. I guess it just all depends on how much juice you are going through. 12-14ish liters on a weekend night here.

I have used this one in the past also.

They are both an investment but you can just knock juicing out in minutes. I'd rather have the invaluable time. Smarter not harder eh?

If I am at home I just use the classic "Mexican Elbow" and just do it. I also have an old vintage juice king manual juicer if I am doing larger or more than a few limes/lemons. No need for the whole big up and down thing at home. For a bar go commercial and electric. For home elbow grease.

These are very popular here in France and you can find them at the entrance of pretty much every supermarket sitting next to empty bottles and a pile or oranges so people can make their own juice.

Imho, it doesn't make great juice imho.

OP, if you want a serious bar-grade juicer, get a Sunkist J-1. This sucker here. This devices has a half-horsepower motor and will suck dry any citrus (lime, lemon, orange, grapefruit) you throw at it, and in mere minutes.

I own one of these (we like fresh juice at home and we have a home bar) and it's badass. You can also get it directly from Sunkist.
