About McKay 16 oz. Metal Can Crusher
Overall Feedback:
77% positive
69% praised the compatibility , but 31% found it can't handle big cans
The top plate started to bend at the front edge due to the greater force required, indicating that heavier-gauge aluminum cat food cans are not compatible with the product.
I noticed that the product has a grind when the handle is returned to the up position, indicating a compatibility issue with the can-crushers.
69% appreciated its durable construction, though 31% experienced breakage issues
I expect the can crusher to last a long time with regular use as it seems sturdy.
I compared the durability of can crushers used in industry and manufacturing with the one I purchased. The tools used in industry and manufacturing are heavy-duty and higher quality and last for 1-2 decades of daily use, whereas my can crusher only lasted for 2-3 years of bi-monthly use.
The product is not durable as it loses its upright position and the handle becomes loose. The metal rubs and wears down, causing the moving parts to become looser with each use.
I find the product to be not durable and it breaks quite fast. It is also annoying to use.
70% found it easy to use
The can crusher is super convenient to use and handles all sizes of aluminum cans like a champ.

64% praised its safety features and design, although 36% had concerns about the mechanism
I suggest using a stud finder with the can crusher for better security.
I faced a problem with the inner railings of the can crusher which were causing it to bind up. I applied some grease to the dry rail track and it solved the problem.
65% liked its compact design, but 35% found it too bulky for their needs
I noticed that the arms of the can crusher are thin metal and seem flimsy.
67% found it easy to clean and maintain
I have not had to make many extra trips to the garage since buying the can crusher, possibly because it is easy to clean.
71% praised the powerful crushing performance
I have been using the can crusher since January 2022 and have crushed over 5,000 cans. It performed exceptionally well with just two minor modifications for the loose handle.
