Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Easy Pull Auto Dispensing No Mess Can Crusher
Customer Review: Service "like the old days"
Summary: 5 Stars
Well I, like others who have offered comments, bought this unit based on customer reviews. I almost never review items online but this one is out of the ordinary and deserves a kudo. The unit is the most well designed and constructed I have used in 30 years. I confess I did not follow the instructions to the letter and mounted it on an outside wall. Now the directions say explicitly NOT to mount out doors or in a garage, but I knew better. Well, maybe not...
Eventually my unit started to bind up and the guide rods for the lever actually bent. I contacted the company asking if they could sell me new guide rods. I didn't hold out much hope and figured I would just have to buy a new unit. Lo and behold, I got a speedy reply to my email. And then a followup call from a representative. And even a second followup call when I was unavailable. They went out of their way to understand my problem, rather than send me off to support purgatory.
The bottom line is that I eventually did speak with the rep and he explained the likely problem of moisture contamination due to the unit being mounted outside. Then he lowered the boom on me! He offered to replace the entire device if I would mail back my original unit.
AMAZING is all I can say. These folks stand behind their product. Period. I give them a triple-A, 5-star rating for service. And a 5-star rating for the product itself!!
Customer Review: Easy Pull Can Crusher, it's great!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using Easy Pull for about 2 years now and it has proven to be a great "creature comfort" appliance for my home. As Grandparents my wife and I are constantly entertaining grandchildren for weekend and week long visits and the kids drink their share of soda along with my occasional beer. The Easy pull makes it easy for the kids and all others to dispose easily of the accumulation of the "dead cans" that would otherwise pile up, quickly filling the largest of trash bags. The collection bin (optional) is well worth the few extra dollars. No more hand picking cans with sharp edges that used to accumulate in the old metal crushers that wouldn't eject properly. The collection bin can be easily used or just put a larger plastic bin on the floor with a trash bag liner (I prefer the optional collection bin, it is easy to use.)
Follow the included instructions for mounting and maintenance and expect it to last forever. Some reviewers have suggested it is made of plastic. Not so. It is manufactured from a heavy duty reinforced Nylon that can handle a lot of abuse. No more ugly rusty metal rusted crushers that are impossible to clean. It also makes a great gift. I have purchased and given the Easy Pull to other family members and the love it.

Customer Review: Smoohing for moolah
Summary: 5 Stars
My boyfriend drinks an abnormal amount of soda. He does not drink water. The man drinks a Pepsi with pancakes. I got sick of having to take the trash out constantly due to the high volume of empty cans in the trash.
Hawaii started the 5 cent redemption a couple of years ago, but I never bothered with it because they didn't allow crushing of cans, and since I live in a condo, keeping bags of cans around was not a possibility. Recently they allowed crushing, so I needed a crusher to save me some $$ and to save my sanity with having a full trash can.
This one works excellently.
I ordered it and it only came with the crushing arm. They advertised in the description that it came with the collection bin. I emailed the company and let them know that they needed to either send me the bin or change their description to avoid further problems. They immediately sent me a collection bin. Excellent customer service.
I do see that they are selling the collection bin separately, but they still describe it as coming with it in the description. So there still seems to be some confusion.
It smooshes cans with ease.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SCREW IT INTO A STUD. The pressure will pull it out of the wall almost instantly. You must find a stud and install it that way.

This can crusher works great. It is fast and easy to operate. I crushed about a dozen 13gal kitchen trash bags of cans and it worked great. The unit worked flawlessly for about 3/4th's of the cans then starting binding up. It still works ok, but it started out very smooth and now it binds resulting in a slight jerking when crushing cans. The jerking is more irratating then anything but overall I am very satisfied. Hopefully it will hold up long term.
Update: 2/13/2011 EZ Pull contacted me regarding the jerking motion with my crusher. They replaced it and the new one is working flawlessly. It appears they may have changed the material on the internal bushings that glide on the stainless steel rods (don't know for a fact except they are a black now vice a silver metalic look with the old model). I am guessing the current bushings will work better. EZ Pull is serious about developing the best can crusher on the market and I agree it is. Very well designed, quick and easy to use. Their customer service is outstanding as well.
Customer Review: Best can crusher ever made.
Summary: 5 Stars
We ordered this from Amazon, and received it quickly. I mounted the crusher in the laundry room were it is easy to get to. We ordered it for my autistic son to make extra money. I was sceptical about getting it because of the price but it was the one he wanted so I ordered it. It works great! It is well worth the price plus some. My biggest concern was leftover liquid in the cans spraying everywhere when you crush them. This doesn't happen with the design of this product. Crush away, there is no mess. One of the best features is once you put the can in the crusher you do not need to touch it again. My son was able to crush a bag of cans in a couple of minutes. We also have the collection bin which is great. The bin holds alot of crushed can without having to empty it. I have used other crushers but this is by far the best and eayest I have ever used. When this one wears out we will buy another Easy Pull. My son says the reason it works so well is because it's made in America and American made is the best.
