WHIPPER QUICK LOADER for Whipped Cream Dispensers & Seltzer Bottles - Upgraded charger holder for your whipping siphon or soda canister - N2O (nitrous oxide) N2 (nitro) & CO2 gas cartridges

These things are a miracle of engineering. I'll never go back to twisting them on, so long as mine keeps working. But be warned: you CANNOT use cheap uncoated chargers in these! If you try, you're asking for trouble.Without the powder-coat layer on the outside providing a low-friction surface, this device can grip the charger incorrectly, causing it to jam. If it jams and you keep pushing it, the lever will snap about halfway down. What happens next will depend on whether the dispenser's needle has punctured the charger's seal.If the seal is intact, at worst you might cut yourself on some purple plastic, or smack your hand against your face when that thing you were pushing against is suddenly no longer pushing back against you. This is how my first one broke.If, however, the seal has been pierced, you will very abruptly be faced with a tiny pressure vessel trying to force 8g of liquefied propellant out of a crude rocket nozzle, in an attempt to escape its purple prison. It will want to go THATTAWAY, as fast as it can. If you're lucky, you will be mildly entertained as a cheap N2O charger flies across the room and puts a small hole in your wall. If you're unlucky, you could end up with chill-burns from the liquid spraying your hands, or fragments of the remainder of this violet vandal slicing through your skin near something fragile like an artery. My friend broke his like this, and was lucky enough that the only consequences were having to replaster a wall and the destruction of some purple plastic.Cheap chargers are fine with the stock screw-thread mechanism of any dispenser, but they do not play well with the WhipSnap. If I were to recommend any: Ultra-Purewhip, BestWhip, and iSi chargers all work well (again, because of the powder-coat applied to the outside of the charger). That said, anything that isn't shiny should be fine. If you can rub them against each other and they don't stick, you're in the clear.Be well.

Within the first 50 cycles of using this product TWO whipped cream canisters were released and shot into the ceiling and across the room. These cartridges are under immense pressure and have caused some injuries and at least one death in the past with normal, twist-on holders. We threw this away immediately after our 2nd canister shot out. Though fun and fast, I would never recommend this product to anyone after that.I can't link outside URLs here but there is an article from The Guardian "Fitness blogger dies after exploding whipped cream dispenser hits her" if you want to search for the story about the woman's death with a malfunctioning siphon.

I admit I had to read a lot to understand hw this worked as it’s so different from anything else on the market and it took a second to figure out the amount of washers but once I figured that let out, it was easy and quick. I only buy one brand of chargers so for me, I can set it and forget it. I think just because this is such a different tool, people should really read the directions sober and not in any rush to make coffee whips. It works so well and fast, it makes me feel like a trick is being played on me since the twisting etc is so labor intensive on other ones.

Broke instantly the fist time I used. Returned the product. Broke my dispenser also. Super pissed about that. The way I see these guys owe me $40 for an new dispenser. I followed the instructions but this thing is terrible. Absolutely do not recommend.

Updating this review after more use.This looked like a fun way to alleviate issues with cross-threading. It works according to the description the description. As stated in one other review, be sure to read all of the instructions. Also test for the correct number of spacing washers. Only had a couple of chargers blow out while testing.After additional use, one blowout caused the charger to fly across the room, and another caused the lever to crack completely, rendering it unusable. It seems like this should be made of stronger materials.Received a replacement that also broke. Do not buy.

A friend told me about this product for my whip it container. I would always struggle screwing on and off the cartridges and I have had a few of the plastic tops strip out on me. The whip snap makes loading and unloading cartridges super easy. You only have to screw the device on one time. From there its just putting the cartridge in and lightly gripping the whip snap to get it to release. The change you open it up and it ejects it. Way faster and easier than ever before. Wish the manufacturer would create some other parts that typically fail as well. Five stars!

Worked really well. Easy to use. Problem is that it's made of all plastic so the lever arm snapped after a bit of use. Probably should be made of metal instead.

Very clever product. Never have to worry about a charger holder stripping or anything like that. No discomfort in your hands anymore. Small safeties on place to try and make sure the charger doesn't launch off if it isn't locked in all the way but be careful using it as chargers are not completely locked in like with a regular charger holder until you ensure the clamp is all the way down. Dropped mine and broke it though! Durable product but it just wasn't made for a fall like that while attached to a whipped cream dispenser. Hopefully the item returns to Amazon soon as it seems to be hard to find anywhere else online.
