Product description Easily manage your recycling with this can crusher from Norpro. It features a heavy gauge stainless steel and is easy to use: simply load a 16 ounce can, slightly indent it, and pull down on the lever to crush it into a one-inch high piece of aluminum. This can crusher mounts into the studs of a permanent wall and features a soft cushion grip handle. It is easy to clean, making it the perfect addition to any kitchen.3-1/8" L x 3-7/8" W x 13" H -- Here's a nifty little item for consumers of canned beverages, especially those whose local government levies fees based on the size of their recycle bin, those wanting to work on their arm strength, and regular Janes and Joes who believe in reducing garbage and recycling mass. Just slightly indent any empty aluminum can, grasp the lever, and pull down sharply to flatten the can to a height of 1 inch. The can crusher mounts into the studs of a permanent wall; be sure to choose a comfortable height for the main crusher in your household. You'll be able to compress a couple of cartons of soda cans, build a bigger bicep, and still have room in the bin for mixed paper and bottles. --Tony Mason
