Draft Top?

I love gadgets, especially food and drink related ones. I don't think I would pony up the $45 for the crowd funded unit but if it is released for retail I might be enticed to get it.

 

I share your sentiment, granted I assume and would hope that if/when they get into mass production the price point comes down significantly. If I could pick one of these up for $10-$15 and it's well-made and works as advertised, I would probably drink from the can more often.

 

I would get it only to walk around a party and do this to everyone's beer when they are not looking and watch them pour it on themselves. That would be worth $45

 

Do they realize that you can do this with any $2 can opener? I used to clean them and keep spare change in empties in college.

 

Seems pretty neat.

 

I could see myself throwing one in the backpack for use on hikes, or camping, or fishing. I don't want to take a glass with me, but I don't want to get bloated either - nor do I want to be deprived of the aroma of my beer

I'd buy one, but not for $45

 

pretty nice idea I kinda want one won't pay more than 5-10 bucks

 

I suppose outdoor activities would be a great place to use one of these but like you said, $45 is a bit steep.

 

So you can chug it faster.

 

Jagged metal Krusty O's!

 

I refuse to support them because of this...

"Backing us with $85 gets you the whole kitten caboodle, everything we have. You will receive the Draft Top, the T-Shirt, 4 koozies and 4 stickers. You will be decked out in DT gear."

 

Sounds like a great deal!

 

Not sure if that was intentional, but I like what you did there

 

I think the grievance is that they used 'kitten' instead of 'kit and'... which is greatly distressing, almost as bad as 'once and a while'... man I hate that.

 

I'm pretty sure there are already can openers on the market that leave no sharp edges.

 

Now you never have to wonder if a bee or an ant crawled inside your can. buzz buzz

 

I don't get all the hate. Sounds kinda cool. I will say though it seems overpriced.

 

My can opener does the same thing. If my wife paid $45 for the can opener, i'd be pissed.

 

The only reason I'd use this is to make a spit-cup out of a soda can, and I stopped dipping like 25 years ago. Used to use a $0.50 P-38 mil surplus can opener for this purpose, but I have to say this new gadget is a lot faster.

 

If I did a lot of camping/hiking/etc. I'd find it handy. As it is, though, it does seem too pricey for something that won't be of much use to me.
