Best can opener ever. I love it!! When I bought it and saw how easy it was to use, I just wanted to continue opening cans. I used to use a manual can opener and that would hurt my hands after opening so many cans which is why I thought I would give this one a try. I am never going back to manually opening cans.My under cabinet can opener of 35 years finally gave up and since I could not find a new under cabinet opener I decided to try this one. Excellent choice, the only negative it is not mounted order the cabinet.Tried several models. this one is not portable it has to stay on the kitchen counter, but it works just fine and efficiently each time. Easy to install, easy to use and extremely feasible. Very good reliable product.Cusineart can open is easy to use and clean. Its compact features make it nice for any decor and is available in several finishes for any household.I give it Five Stars ! & recommend it for thos e looking for an affordable electric can opener.I had an electric can opener that lasted for years that I loved but it stopped working.. I have always had problems using a manual one and eventually Ineeded to buy another can opener if I was going to be able to open any more cans. So I chose to buy this one.It has turned out to be a great can opener. I don’t have to hold on to the can as it works it’s way around the lid and it is so quiet. It stops when it is finished. It is the best can opener I have ever had. I was dismayed at some of the negative reviews, but decided that I would take a chance on this Cuisinart product. I am so glad that I did. I am thrilled that I have this one as it operates so smoothly. I will be anxious to see how long it lasts.This thing is sweet! No more stabbing cans with screwdrivers in this house! We’ve been cutting lids off of everything we own just for the heck of it since receiving this jewel of an appliance!So far this can opener works great and removes can lids very easily and isn't that noisy either.Love this can opener. Replacing an old, old Black & Decker which was still working but it was so ugly. I moved into a new place and I have a nice kitchen. Everything else matches so I decided to replace my old ugly can opener. This one is pretty. Sleek and fits right in. I looked at the number one rated can opener but it is big and bulky and while I have a ton of counter space and a ton of cabinet space, I wanted something that looked nice. And this one does. And it is easy to use. Place that can, hit that lever and off it goes. I don't quite understand the complaints about the lever being plastic, the entire unit (except for the blade) is plastic. Why would anyone put a steel lever? And it is soooo easy to clean. My old can opener was not like this. I remove the lever after every use, rinse it and let dry. What a nice concept. What a pretty unit. And yes, I am a little bored today otherwise I would never write a review of a can opener but I was a little displeased with the amount of research I had to do to decide on this model. The negative reviews for this can opener are just dumb. The positive reviews for the number one rated can opener are a bit of a surprise, I would never want anything that big & bulky on my counter. This one is perfect.DO NOT USEOriginally left a 5 star review, but after using the unit for a bit I've noticed METAL SHAVINGS in my BABY'S FORMULA.This is unacceptable, I only noticed last night as I was prepping formula. I thought it was a hair in the bottom of the jug... But I quickly realized it was metal. Ran a magnet all over the bottom of the jug and brought up a bunch of metal.I was in need of an electric can opener because I am soon having thumb surgery where my thumb on my right hand will be immobilized for 6 wks. I have tried other electric can openers and never liked any of them. They were so difficult to use. I knew I had to try again because of my upcoming surgery. I LOVE this can opener!! It came very quickly and it is so easy to use! Not at all like others I have tried in the past. And it is super quiet. Not even my dog can hear it. LOLThis unit is no good for use in the UK . not very clear in the description. the reviews are many US and CanadaIt works fairly well, but very fragile not that stable when opening a large canThe delivery was on time.Would not recommend if you are looking for something a little more stable.I have kept it but can not vouch h ow long it will last.I am visually impaired and was struck by tennis elbow. Opening cans to make dinner was painful and awkward. When we bought this can opener it simplified the dinner making process, and you do not need to look to get it working properly. For anyone with visual or dexterity restrictions, I highly recommend this tool.
