I absolutely love this can opener it is so easy to use. It don't hurt your wrists turning it and most importantly the cans don't have the serrated edges.

Bought one of these years ago at a home goods store. It finally snapped in half recently, which I admittedly probably could have avoided but was likely being too forceful. Glad to find the same brand replacement, it is working great so far. It's not super sturdy feeling, but I think as long as you take your time and patience operating this, it should last a long time. Works great on all cans I've tried it on, even taking off the tops of soda cans.

I first purchased this can opener probably 15 years ago, and LOVED it! Clean, non-sharp edges, easy to use. When my first one stopped working about 2 months ago---probably just not as sharp---I didn't hesitate to order another one. But what a mistake! This one is stiff, doesn't adhere to the top of the can, is IMPOSSIBLE to turn the cutter handle, and doesn't make even the first cut on a lid. Unfortunately, it worked briefly---not well, but briefly--- so I didn't return it, and now it's past the return date. There are some differences that I can tell from the old to the new (smaller in size, smaller bottom cutting blade, smaller teeth on the serrated (top) cutting edge), so not sure what has caused the great tool to become useless!

Muito fácil de usar. Abre maravilhosamente bem, e não é preciso esforço. Basta encaixar o abridor direitinho na horizontal. Atenção, funciona ao contrário dos tradicionais " borboletas", quando usamos o abridor na vertical.

I always prefer these can openers that cut the can open without making a sharp disc that falls into the can, is hard to dig out, or stays partially attached to the can. This one works like that- it cuts a smooth edged disc that comes right off. One nice feature is that the disc stays attached to the can opener until you release it, so you don't have to handle it at all if you don't want to touch it. The main problem with this can opener is that it should cut the lid in such a manner that the lid fits back onto the can, so that the cut off lid can still function as a lid that keeps the food in the can fresh. But this can opener cuts a wonky opening that is smooth and safe, but somehow doesn't quite allow the lid to sit back onto the can nicely. Since that is really the main reason I like this kind of can opener, I can't recommend this one. Spend a few extra dollars to get one that really works well. This one is also made of fairly lightweight plastic, which I think might not hold up over time, and it makes me worry that the blade mechanism, which is working OK now, might also not be great quality- and maybe that's why it doesn't cut a lid that can fit back on the can.

I bought this Zyliss can opener because the last Zyliss I had lasted well over 20 years without a problem. I used the new on as soon as possible. They don't make a big deal of it but this is a side cutting opener. You lay the cutter on top of the can and turn the handle to open the can. Before you know it, the lid is off! It was faster than my previous can opener but that one is old. This new one doesn't feel very sturdy but it really is surprisingly sturdy. The lids hang on until you are ready to release them. The only thing I didn't like is the choices of color! lol My kitchen is in muted grays and whites (or will be when I can paint it) with a touch of blue. It is a red can opener! Guess what-it opens the cans and that is the important thing. Does a great job and that's what I needed!

I bought this can opener to replace a very old one which bears the same name...On trying to use it I had difficulty engaging it onto the rim of the can...After some minutes I managed to open the can---but it left a jagged piece of steel which could result in a nasty cut to a hand...Maybe this was a "One off" but certainly don't want to risk it again...KC.
