McKay Metal Can Crusher, Wall-Mounted 12/16 Oz. Smasher - Blue

If you can use a drill and a screwdriver, you can install this can crusher. Once installed, crushing the cans a breeze. It's well made, and it works. What else do you need to know? Quick hint: slightly dent your cans before crushing them. It makes crushing them much easier.

Really stiff action on lever.

Buenos materiales. Solo vale para latas habituales, las alargadas no entran, podrían hacer un modelo más universal???

Works great, heavy duty and solid. Stiff at first but after a few cans that was resolved

I bought my first one over a year ago. I'm a hardcore Redbull addict (zero shame) and go through a ton of the standard sized slim cans. Before I stumbled upon this can crusher I had been doing the overwhelmingly ineffective one handed can squish to "save space" in my recycle bin. Yep... I really "saved some space" doing it that way. Instead of fitting only 17 cans in the bin, I could fit 20 (sarcasm doesn't get much thicker than that). When I found this can crusher, I was actually looking for one, and like most people, I bought it based on the rating and number of reviews. And I was elated to find that it absolutely lived up to the hype! I have rather weak arms due to a chronic health condition (which makes me a very odd duck as I'm a maintenance tech, driveway auto mechanic of 20 years, and a furniture builder... I'm also a 5ft 100lb F), and even on my bad days when it's too painful to even lift my arms, I can still slam a can perfectly flat in this thing. My friend's 2 yr old wanted to try it out, so I totally let her take the handle.. fully supervised of course (I'm not one to deny a little girl who shows interest in how mechanical stuff works). That kid executed a single one handed downswing, and flattened a can on the first try! What I like most about this crusher, and what you'll see in almost anything made to top quality standards, is that the performance has remained consistent for over a year. While the one I bought originally has been beaten all to hell, and looks like it got run over by industrial farming equipment, it still works just as perfectly as it did when I first unboxed it. So, if it's that great, why did I need to get another one? As sturdy and well made as it is... it's not idiot proof. Nothing really is though. One of my friends (the type who thinks he's a pro .. but isn't.. at all) decided he was smarter than me ..and the manufacturers of the can crusher.. and proclaimed that he was going to "fix it" (apparently he thought the handle arm was too stiff) with a quick spritz of WD40. He'd done it before I could stop him. DO NOT make that mistake!!! The arm will not stay up anymore, and instead, flops out and down. I have had to secure it with a clothes pin ever since.. and I still yell at the idiot who messed it up whenever I see him. So.. the new one I just ordered is 100% because of how beaten up the old one looks, and it's an eyesore in my kitchen. But because it still works perfectly, I'll move the old one into my workshop where looking beaten up blends in.
