What customers say
Consumers generally find the Norpro Can Crusher effective for its primary purpose: significantly reducing the volume of standard aluminum beverage cans for easier recycling. Its straightforward design and simple lever mechanism are praised for making the crushing task quick and effortless, saving valuable bin space. However, a key limitation involves durability when handling thicker cans, such as those for seltzer or energy drinks, where users report performance issues. While adequate for light household use with typical soda and beer cans, the construction may not withstand crushing more robust containers. Some users also noted that necessary mounting hardware is often missing. Overall, it is viewed as a functional tool for standard recycling needs.
