Product Description
This is a brand new style of aluminum can crusher. It is perhaps the easiest one to use ever built! Click on any photo for a closer look. It is designed for MAXIMUM ease of use. FIVE YEAR OLD KIDS CAN USE THIS THING! Folks with disabilities, old folks, or just plain tired folks will like the way this tool works. The leverage engineered into this can crusher makes the initial stroke about 6 times easier than it's nearest competitor. Plus the crushing platforms are slightly tilted so that the can is held in place while crushing. The can can't shoot out at you that way. It has a rotating handle making easy downstrokes. Plus it has a built in stop at the bottom of the stroke to save you or your little ones from getting pinched. When you lift up on the handle the can simply falls out the bottom. You don't have to take it out! You don't even have to touch the can again. PLUS (sold separately) it comes with the attractive and totally simple to use collection bin that is designed to slide into place under this unit. It holds 48 crushed cans by itself. No unsightly trashcan needed. No matter how you dress up a trashcan it's still a trashcan. The collector snaps in or out and has a neat handle for grabbing. If you want it even has a drain hole in the bottom. This can crusher is made of super tough nylon, stainless steel, and aluminum. It won't rust cause it is built to last. It comes with mounting hardware. It even has stainless pins for serious lastability. The unit by itself measures 19" tall and folds up against the wall taking up very little space. The bin measures about 16" tall and together they will go 34" complete. 4 big bags of aluminum cans turn into one easy bag. At the current rate of 65 cents a pound, it only takes about 4 bags of crushed cans to pay for this tool. After four bags you're on green street!

Best Crusher! November 18, 2008
Andrea Philbrook (Alta Loma, CA United States)
One pull and a satisfying "Crunch!" sounds out and the compacted can falls neatly into the container. This is a well built, quality item. I reccomend that instead of going for a less expensive can crusher that may spray liquid and break down easily, go for this one, I really believe it's the best. Also, the collection bin is easy and clearly the best way to use this.
Good product October 2, 2008

This product is just what it claims. We use it at least every other day and it works GREAT!!
Excellent design that needs a last tweak. September 21, 2008

The Easy Pull Can Crushing System is very well made and works exactly as discribed. The improvement needed is a better way to attach a plastic bag at the bottom. A family with a light to medium consumption rate of canned soda will fill the Collection Bin several times a day. This would require many trips to the garage. The much larger recepticle offered is good for an Institutional setting, but a family....?

This was an excellent choice. This vendor was the best I've ever had since doing business with Amazon.
My Last Can Crusher June 11, 2008

I'm fairly certain this will be my last can crusher, having worn out several before! I have been using this for about 6 months now and it has been perfectly dependable. Came fast, mechanism ships inside the detachable bin inside the shipping box.
It took about two minutes to mount on the garage wall with the screws that were included. It crushes well and operates smoothly, all members of my household have been able to use it with ease and safety. The plastic bin catches everything and is easy to very empty.
Pros
Heavy plastic with some stainless steel, will not rust.
Clean and contained.
Long life
Can be operated without bin, like above a large garbage can.
Makes drinking beer even more fun!
Cons
Bigger than most crushers.
Payoff takes a bit longer.
Does not work well on mini-cans like v-8 juice.
Makes you buy more beer!
I'm very happy with this crusher and I'm sure you will be also!
