Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Easy Pull Auto Dispensing No Mess Can Crusher
Customer Review: Solid solution at a great price
Summary: 5 Stars
This product is very well engineered and constructed. I can't see any way to improve on the design. The operation is very smooth, and there is ample leverage such that even my kids can do the job. In fact, they love to do it, so lazy dad can hand them the cans and they fight over who gets to crush!
I have used other designs, this one wins, hands down. Be sure to get the matching bin that fits into the crusher, it's a neat and clean solution and worth the extra money; keeps the whole thing off the floor and conceals all the crushed cans: Easy Pull Collection Bin. When it fills up, just dump it into a larger recycling bin. You can buy the crusher and the collection bin together, which is what I did: EZ Pull Can Crush System with Storage Bin.
I can't think of a reason not to get this system.
Customer Review: Handy And Easy To Use Can Crusher
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought one of these Easy Pull Auto Dispensing Can Crushers with the crushed can container several years ago for our cabin. It has worked very well and is enjoyed mostly by the kids. So we decided a few months ago to get another one for our home. It is made of a heavy use material which I believe could be of a plastic/spun glass mixture and has taken much abuse at the cabin. One of the features I do like is the rotating handle which lets you hold the handle grip in your hand through the entire motion without letting it turn in the palm of your hand. Also it is a one hand operation that does not require excessive force to crush the cans and the available crushed can container makes it easy to remove and to dump the crushed cans into a recycle bin. With our use we find that the collection bin holds about thirty five crushed cans. We our happy with both of our Easy Pull Auto Dispensing No Mess Can Crushers and would recommend them highly to anyone!Customer Review: The Easy Pull works much better than "The Crusher".
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this model and one of "The Crusher" models. I mounted this one in the garage because it is not made of steel and put "The Crusher", a steel model outside.(We have very cold winters, here and I worried that the Easy Pull may crack or break outside.) The Easy Pull works great and out performs The Crusher easily. I keep a five gallon bucket lined with a trash bag underneath it and I like how the can just drops right in the trash without having to even touch it again. For best results just slightly squeeze the can and leave a small impression in it before loading it into the Easy Pull, it crushes it without using as much pull down force. The Crusher, although being made from heavier material, is a disapponitment. It does not automatically discharge the can, and it constantly spits the can back out when you pull down to crush it. It is a pain and a hassel and I wish I would have just bought two Easy Pull models, instead of just the one!Customer Review: Love it!!

I just purchased the Easy Pull along with the canister attachment and I have to say it is the easiest can crusher I have ever used. My kids can operate it safely and the cans drop into the canister without a problem. It does have to be mounted to a stud or the force will pull it out of the wall. I mounted this to the side of a sturdy built-in shelving unit in my pantry and it works great. Hint: do not bend or hand crush the cans ahead of time or they tend to slide out of the crusher, or not get crushed completely. I also make sure the cans are completely empty and rinse them out before crushing. When the canister is full, it easily slides out and gets emptied into a plastic lined garbage can. I wish I had thought of this a long time ago. We have bags and bags of uncrushed cans, and this device would have saved a lot of garbage bags. (We store ours until fair week when the recycle company doubles the rate per pound.)Customer Review: Best Can Smasher EVER!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am astonished at how well this can smasher works, zero complaints at all. I would buy another one if one wasnt enough for me. The rotating mechanism as the cans get crushed seems to work much better than the can crushers that I have used that just crush straight down. It doesn't squeak, creak, or make any noise other than the sound of an aluminum can getting smashed.
The plastic feels very very solid and sturdy, I have no worries that it may break at all.
Where I mounted mine on my closet wall I was not able to use the included screws to screw it into a stud. Instead I had to buy two E-Z Anchor Toggle Bolt Hollow Wall Anchors, they are rated at 100lb each, and used little washers with the wall anchor screws to keep the can crusher held snug against the wall. The thing is rock solid, and I have no worries that it will tear loose from the sheetrock wall.
