 False Advertisment. March 26, 2008

Took delivery of my Heavy Duty Lever Arm Can Crusher in just 3 days. As for calling it "heavy duty"...I don't think so! Soon as I received it, my brother and I tried it on a empty can of peas by just holding the crusher bewteen us...nothing happened. I know it supposed to be screwed to the wall, but I wanted to make sure it worked BEFORE screwing it to the wall. I won't be screwing it to my wall now, as the only cans I buy are made of tin. The company should change their advertisement to, "it only crushes light aluminium cans", not cans made of tin".
Does what it says on the tin..for a while!!!!! March 2, 2008

Just what we need, I thought when I bought this item, and it was,for about 3 months,then the arms bent and the machine would crush cans no more.I am looking for a better quality version.I have seen one with tubular arms.
Any one any idea where to purchase??

Maybee my fault for not researching enough but I assumed ordinary cans would be a pushover.
The bottom shelf bent right down after 10 or so cans. I've put two self tapping screws above the bottom platform from front to back. Cut them off from the back and put in a fillet of metal glue to hold the screws and bottom shelf. See how it goes but I suspect i'll be back for the foot crusher before long.
flimsly and not up to the job January 23, 2008

Don't touch this product. The arms are so flimsy they'll bend out of shape sooner than crush the can. Also, if you don't hold it in place, the can is liable to pop out and hit you in the face.
 Does the job for me! September 3, 2007

I've had a couple of these and each one lasted over a year, for something that costs around a tenner you cant expect it to perform miracles or last forever.
Wall mount it, grease it and gently press the can into the crusher denting it a bit before crushing.
Don't try and crush steel cans, its only designed to crush aluminium drinks cans.
