I totally LOVE IT!!! I had tried different ones before, some 3 or 4 different ones, but not of them were great, instead, the Loewen-Meta Nutcracker not only is beautifully crafted, but it works to perfection, and it works perfect because when you press it down whenever you’re cracking nuts, it doesn’t go all the way once the nut brakes, because this nutcracker comes with some resistance, with other nutcrackers, once you crack the nut, there’s not stopping the pressure you hand is applying and shells go flying every where, in many pieces all over the place.
I’m so in impressed by this nutcracker, I feel like I want to buy another one, even though I only need one. I highly recommend this nutcracker folks, you will not be disappointed.
