How far does the handle open up? I am wondering the hinge allows it to open to 180 degrees or if it stops before that.

It opens slightly over 90 degrees. Doesn't hamper the functionality or ability to clean the inside of it.

It opens to 90 degrees. And its very difficult to use. I went back to my cheapo squeezer. I really don't recommend this product.

I didn't install my hinges according to the diagram so I can open my desk a full 90 degrees. This is because the top lays flat to the box. I also put the hinge on the out side of the box. I found I could not reach the hinges to open and close them because I have short arms.

It opens to almost a 90degree angle. There is an adjustable knob on the top for thickness. Very easy to use

It has a left and a right plastic hinge that only opens 180 degrees. When the top sections are loaded with nuts and bolts and the like, the box over-balances and tips. The plastic hinges break piece by piece and I am now down to only one full hinge, the other hanging on by a fingernail. Very poor design.

I am not positive as I leave it in one position usually. But I believe its closer to 180. Definitely more than 90 degree.

Make sure you turn the handle to the left.. You would think you would turn it to the right but it open when you turn the handle left.

Yes, it can actually be angled anywhere from 0 degrees (straight back towards the handle) to over 180 degree (straight out away from the handle). I will also add that I have been giving mine a workout for a while now and it has been sitting all day every day in the Florida sun and it is holding up very well without any signs of wear. It is a very nice product.

The knob on the cabinet has a feature which allows it to turn if someone attempts to force it open. That prevents the handle from breaking off. Gently turn the handle as far as possible in the counter-clockwise direction. When it reaches the end of its range you should feel and hear a slight "click". It should re-engage and work normally after that.

You can flip the clip around 180 degrees using the three screws. It'll place the top of the clip parallel with the bottom of the knife handle. User preference I guess. I haven't tried it.

It does open all the way. The only thing i dont like about it is the handle is on the wrong end, in my opinion. The handle should be on the other end so it opens like a book. Its a nice bag if you have alot.

The arm can move in the range between flat and 90 degrees down. The hinge can be tightened with an Allen wrench, supplied, to hold the arm in place anywhere in the range. The only positive lock is all the way up -= flat to the ceiling.

It only opens from left to right (facing the unit). The hinge cannot be changed.

There is a hinge. That said its not a huge opening. We ended up taking the top off altogether. Also the handle edges are a bit sharp so if the hamper is super full it can be painful to carry.

Absolutely. The hinge is tight, and it opens to a full 90 degrees. Good product.

Opening door does not pull rack out. Open door rests at a 90 degree angle with handle resting on counter.

Mine only goes 90 degrees. Its been so long since I installed it, I don't recall it having a plate to allow 180. If you notice, it only has 90degree turn notches for the key, you can pull the key out at either turn.

It is seven inches, but the end of the handle is on a slight slant so the max distance is seven. This is such a joy to use after all the other ones i have tried. it is light and glides over hinges. It takes the least effort to use. Good luck: hope you like it as much as I do.
