Round Push Down Ashtray with Spinning Tray Black -A32

UPDATE/EDIT: (almost 2 years later... ) "Finally went kaput!! Got lazy and built up a bunch of ash/crud that hardened which took more effort to try and scrub/wipe off and in pressing down on the lid it broke off the spinner which if I was a complete miser I might have fixed with some skillful soldering but c'mon.. $12 bucks for 2 years? Looks like others had theirs break a lot faster but I'm going to order another one and even if it only lasts half as long, that still makes it 1 year and a bargain in my book"***************ORIGINAL REVIEW:My previous ash-tray was one of those "butt begone" types, the thick plastic ones that look like a cup with an ashtray for the lid with a hole that cigarette butts are "supposed" to go into. Problem is they never really did so I would have butts and ashes piling up and then inevitably I'd knock it over spilling ash all over the place or ashes would spill out of the top lid and onto my desk.That is no longer the case since I replaced it with this one. It's got a nice size and weight to it and the spinning action is great. I've been using it for 3 days now and I've not yet had to empty it. Probably have gone through 3 to 4 packs and this thing has just sucked up the butts, ashes and all into it's vortex and I hardly have any ashes on my desk. The chrome top locks into place by pushing down and twisting it to the left so if you ever knock this off your desk it won't come open. The top surface does get a bit ratty after awhile with ash residue, but hey - it's an ashtray what did you expect? Just wipe the sucker off periodically and you'll be fine. Extremely satisfied with my purchase and would have been even if I had to pay shipping and the item cost twice as much as I paid for it.

We needed to get a new ashtray for when we had company over and I like to enjoy a cigarette when we have guests over that smoke. When I came across this ashtray, it reminded me of the one my mother used to have many years ago so, I decided to purchase it.The bottom part of the ashtray is a nice black matte finish and the top is silver. The spinner spins great and the cigarette butts get into the tray without a problem. The design of the top is a bit awkward because it has a space for 3 cigarette indents but you cannot fit the cigarette on top. The only way to place a cigarette is by laying it sideways on the ashtray. This only allows for 2 cigarettes to be placed on the ashtray, if you were to set them down. Since this ashtray is small I have kept it for myself and will be getting a bigger one for guests.It still works great getting the cigarette butts inside when you spin the top. I really like that because it keeps them out of sight until the ashtray is emptied. Great look just not big enough for company.

This seller photo shopped the product image to remove the dimples that lock the lid to the bottom. All metal is extremely thin and stamped. Plating and paint is extremely thin. This is no good for outdoor use, don't try it. Only one way to prevent rust and breaking of mechanism - I sprayed the top and spring with a lubricant and did not polish it. You have to leave a coating of lubricant on the top to prevent rust and prevent the lid from binding to the can. That will cause ashes to cling to the top and you either live with that or watch it rust. WD40 is not good, I used Boeshield T-9 spray which leaves a waxy coating. The product will suffocate the burning and prevent the stink from butts that is worse than stale smoke itself. Buy a better product for outdoor use but note the whole concept of the spinner is to keep the stink of butts contained indoors. This will not spill contents if it falls on the floor because the lid is snug. I would not buy this again or recommend it. Some things should be bought for quality, not price point.

I love this ash tray. I am not a fan of having a messing, cig butt filled ashtray. For the last few years I have been using a bucket filled with sand for an ash tray but it was always getting full with three smokers living in the house. Now I am the only one living here that smokes and I thought it was time for an ash tray that I could just empty when full since it is fully my mess. When I saw this one I knew I had to have it. Being able to just push the knob on top and have the tray spin the ash and butts into the bottom is really cool. It keeps the top of the ash tray clean, keeps the wind from blowing ash all over me and the porch, and is super easy to just twist open and dump into a trash bag. Also, it is all metal except for the knob on top. I am a stickler for making sure i stub my cigg completely out. But this ash tray would easly contain any smoldering that may happen if burning ash happened to get into the bottom or someone spun a butt down that wasnt out. I recommend this ash tray for anyone looking for something like it. 5 stars!

Great when it works, but the first one fell apart after 2 weeks. Second one is still going, but for how long.

more like $store junk. not worth the price.

Smaller than what it looks like and the mechanism is not smooth.

As described, but, feels a little cheap.

love it
