Customer reviews
Easy to operate and works well
I want to preface this review by saying that I have never liked electric can openers and even refused to have one in my kitchen; I much preferred the non-electric hand turned ones. However, as I have gotten older and the arthritis has become increasingly painful in my hands, it has become sufficiently difficult and almost impossible for me to operate the old style hand crank can openers. So like it or not, I had to get an electric one. I evaluated multiple options, read multiple reviews, and watched multiple videos finally deciding on this one which I might add, I found most impressive. I did not want a battery operated model which either required batteries or needed to be recharged. I especially liked the fact that the cut was made under the rim on the outside and not inside thereby eliminating any sharp edges. I finally hit the purchase button and bought this Hamilton Beach model. The can opener is tall enough to accommodate taller cans yet easily fits underneath the counter. It is attractive, sleek, streamlined and easily cleaned. The scissors tucked in the back are an added bonus. The cord is relatively short but long enough to plug in where I use it. The can fits smoothly and efficiently under the blade, and the lever is easily operated with one hand. There are no sharp edges on the can lid after being cut open. On my first use I had a bit of trouble knowing when the can had been completely cut as I noticed no change in the sound emitted by the can opener and since the cut is on the outside not the top it is difficult to see the cut. That is certainly not problematic, and I am sure it is something that I will adjust to with time. This can opener works extremely well and is a dream to use. I would be wrong to not admit how much I have enjoyed using it and how much my hands appreciate it. I highly recommend it to anyone who has any misgivings at all about electric can openers. Top 3 Likes: -Relatively compact and quiet yet sturdy and functional as described -Cut on the side is quite wonderful -Easily handles small, standard, or large cans with ease Top 3 Dislikes: -At first it was difficult to tell if the cut is complete -The side cut is so indiscreet that I have to get a knife to lift the cut lid off of the can -No longer can I put the lid down inside the can, it will not fit with the side cut

A nearly perfect can opener.
I purchased this unit after my wife decided that her old opener was no longer satisfactory. As to what that means, I presently have no explanation. :P Anyway, she purchased a new, automatic opener that she rejected out-of-hand as it was exactly the same design as her old one other than it was made by a different company. The new opener was also very cheaply made in that it had certain, major components now constructed of plastic rather than sturdy metal. She purchased this without my input as she is very independent. We'll be donating this new opener to "Goodwill." As to this can opener, it is a solid, well built unit. It is significantly heavier which lends itself to greater stability when in use. The operating components, unlike other cheaper openers, are made of steel and there is no risk of breaking the operating lever when pressing down to activate the unit. It is quiet when operating and removes the can lids efficiently without residue. The opener holds the can once attached and when the operating lever is depressed to begin removal. The only issue, and it's minor, is that once you attach the can to be opened to the opener, one must continually hold the activating lever down to complete the opening of the can. At that point, one simply lifts the lever to remove the can. My wife states that her previous opener would open the can without the necessity of holding down the activating lever until the opening process was fully completed. Her old opener would open a can and simply stop when the can was opened. Of course, opening a can only takes about 5 seconds. That was her only complaint. UGH! This unit opens cans using a side action mechanism that leaves no sharp-edged lids to mess with. Very nice! A pair of small scissors is also a part of the package. Why such an item is included is incomprehensible to me. I suppose you can trim your toe nails with them while you open your cans. I paid about $63.00 as of this date (06/18/2025). This is a very good opener at a reasonable price.

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
Ok i know it's "just" a can opener but it's an AWESOME can opener, so yes, I do love it! It's unique. It cuts the can lid on the side so there is no gunk on the can opener, no ragged dangerous edge and the cut off top of the can is like a lid. It's not messy! The top sits like a lid so you can move the can from one part of the kitchen to another without spilling and dripping. The lid cuts off completely and cleanly so no twisting that last bit not cut like other can openers leave. The lid doesn't fall into the can either so you don't have to fish it out, it just sits on top. My can opener sits on a side counter, away from where I prep so the top forming a "lid" is a big benefit. I don't store stuff in opened cans but you could pop the can in the fridge with any left over content using the cut off top as a lid. Can't do that with a "nornal" opened can. I have used it on very small ( tomato paste) and medium ( 400 ml )cans and it worked perfectly on all of them. I don't use really big cans like #10 ones so can't comment on how it works on those. Couldn't be more pleased. If you still have doubts I would suggest watching the videos online and you can see how well it works.

Almost effortless to use and works perfectly every time!
LOVE this can opener! It is so simple to use, with minimal effort! Opens all types of cans! Perfect for the elderly, or not so elderly who have limited hand or arm use; great for children, as there’s no sharp edges. Best investment with high recommendation! It is very sturdy; sits very solid on the counter; has a cutting knob at the height of 6 3/4”, or can be placed at the edge of the counter to cut deeper cans. After checking many reviews and reading some people’s struggle with it, I’m including clear use instructions. Just pull up top lever; place and hold can underneath round turning knob; then, with free hand, push down lever half down to locked position, or proceed with pushing it all the way down to begin the cutting. As soon as the cutting sound becomes a little higher pitch, the cutting is done; release lever! Hold can with one hand and pull up lever with the other hand, to release the can. *** Lid is cut in the middle of the side rim; not underneath it (as I thought, at first.) I have had mine for several months, now, and it opens my cans, perfectly, every time! Includes a great and handy little scissor for other needs. Push lever down for storage.
