Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Easy Pull Auto Dispensing No Mess Can Crusher
Customer Review: Well constructed, but rather big.
Summary: 5 Stars
At 20 inches long and 6 wide it's rather unsightly in my kitchen. The can crusher works like a charm though, doesn't quite squish the cans as flat as the old stomp method but it does reduce them at least by half. It won't take anything larger than a standard 12 oz can.
A wall stud is a must for installation as it really does pull to smash the can. I'm sure if the unit were smaller it would need a lot more force to use so I won't gripe about the size of it as it is easy to use.
I think I'll be painting it white so it'll blend into my kitchen wall a little better instead of this huge black thing on my wall w/ it's additonal very large black (I opted not to use the American flag decal) collection bin that really is a must have addition.
It's going to be a welcome addition to our household and will sure cut my trips to the recyling center down.
Customer Review: Anyone CAN use it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I researched the web for a dependable, easy to use can crusher and discovered the Easy Pull for our charity can collections. It really lives up to it's reputation of being "easy" since young children as well as elderly can use it with very little effort. The unit is well made, and doesn't require the operator to put their fingers in and pull out the crushed can like some models, therefore preventing possible finger/hand cuts. An optional, matching attachable bin can be added to store the crushed cans that simply fall into the bin after the lever is pulled. Ours has a artistic, swirled patriotic flag on the bin. There's virtually no maintainance required except an annual light coating of petroleum jelly on the easy-to-get-to visible steel rod. Help save the environment and save some $$$. This item can pay for itself very quickly. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!Customer Review: Greatest invention ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
My Humane Society raises money recycling cans so I save them to donate. It seemed that every time I turned around I had mountains of cans to get to them. This crusher works like magic and is addictive to use. Four times as many cans fit into my recycling bin as previously did. The crusher is designed to mount to a wall with long wood screws, but I had no wall available in my garage due to having wall to wall metal shelving. I utilized two of the slots in the metal shelf uprights and changed to long bolts and nuts for mounting. It worked like a charm. One of the best features is that the crushed can jumps out of the crusher right into the bin placed on the floor below it. I don't think there could be a better functioning or easier unit made. Even my husband who never moved a can from the house to the bin previously is hooked on crushing!!Customer Review: It works, conveniently
Summary: 5 Stars
Well, it works. I mounted ours (to a stud) right outside the garage door and the kids love to use it. I especially appreciate the way the cans auto "eject" (fall) into the waiting trash can below. We crushed about 50 cans very quickly as a team - one person loading the can and one crushing.
I highly recommend that you mount this device to a stud or a backboard. It comes with mounting screws and wall anchors but I do not recommend wall anchors. It is VERY easy to crush the cans with little force due to the leverage mechanism and moderate sized handle. However, the device translates the required force to the wall of course and unless you mount this to a stud or backboard, the top screw is likely to comeout or cause wall damage.
Installation is simple, two screws.
Customer Review: Easy Pull Can Crusher-Great Tool for Recycling
Summary: 5 Stars
I have used other can crushers in the past but found that the Easy Pull was a new product in the marketplace. It is easier to use than other crushers as it crushes the can without as much effort.
We have younger children who visit our home, and they love to crush the cans. With the Easy Pull, they cannot get their fingers caught and it automatically dispenses the can so it is really safe for them to use.
It is a great tool for recycling and because the Easy Pull crushes the cans to a fraction of their original size, it really saves the space in the bin. The collection bin co-ordinates well with the crusher and is space saving.
I highly recommend this product to anyone who has the need for crushing cans. I find this product to be an excellent value.
