Kuhn RikonAuto Safety LidLifter/Can Opener with Ring-Pull, 8 x 2.5 x 2.75 inches, Red

I have very sore joints usually and find this thing just a treat to use! Operates smoothly cutting through the can and stays clean because of the safe cut style! Absolutely love that it has the pull tab opener as well, I didnt think I would use that much but i actually reach for it every time, it just makes it so much easier and less likely to spill! I've had it for a couple months now and I have had zero issues. Seems sturdy and I havent had to clean it yet!

One of my best purchases EVER! Kudos to the inventor(s). Kind to my wrists with daily dog food cans. Never a jagged edge to worry about. Easy. Effective and Efficient. Plus pleasing ergonomic design.

At first it seemed weird to open a can by cutting around the outside edge, rather than inside the lip. But I quickly discovered it is an easy and neat way to do it, with no sharp edges. But I still keep my old-fashioned can opener around because occasionally I'll come across an oddball can that this doesn't it.

Wonderful opener, and you can use the cut-off top as a lid for the can! Precision construction, impressive quality!

Works well and easy to use. However sometimes I have to go round the cans more than once before the lids come off. Love the colour as it fits in well with my other kitchen tools.

Solidly built, easy to use, and highly recommended! Well worth the money!

Awesome device. Once you get used to the style, you'll wonder why can-openers haven't been this way forever. There may be better items out there but, looking to give something different a try? I don't think you'll regret this purchase.

I have used other products from Kuhn Rikon in the past. Particularly pressure cookers, so I might be biased. I have also used several of this type of 'safety' or 'magic' can openers in the past.From my perspective, this is the best and easiest to use can opener that I have ever used or owned, and I am now almost 70, so that's a lot of can openers.Unlike some other openers of this type, it is especially easy to position and engage on the cans. The previous opener that this one replaced (a British one that resembles the Amazon Basics Safe Cut in appearance) was designed to be simplified, but was virtually impossible to position. Not so, this one. Just as the instructions explain, simply align the two semi-circular 'aiming' cutouts on the body and turn the knob about half a turn to engage and lock it on the can. It's really that simple and easy.After that, I find it easier to hold the knob in place and then move the longer handle to rotate round the rest of the can. Once a lack of resistance is felt, the lid has been separated from the can and a half-turn anti-clockwise of the knob releases the opener from the can and lid (which remains in place).The integrated 'pincher' does actually work to fully detach the separated lid from the can. Because of the way these types of opener operate, once the lid has been separated from the can, a vacuum exists within the can, particular if maintained by liquid within the can. This is not a major deal, but often means that it doesn't detach easily by itself. A fingernail, knife etc will work too, but with the aforementioned pincher, it's a breeze to accomplish without getting any liquid on your hands.As others have attested, this type of opener leaves a replaceable lid to the can without leaving any jagged edges. If you have kids or are worried about cutting yourself (like I am), you should probably use one of this type of opener, even if not this specific one.The only thing that I'm not so sure of is the hook for cans that come with ring-pull lids. I tried it only once (on a can of sardines) and it simply pulled the ring-pull out of the lid without removing any of it from the can.As I said, I love this can opener and would certainly recommend it to anyone. I expect it to last for a long time, but if it ever wears out, I would certainly buy another one without hesitation.I neither work for nor am I affiliated with either the manufacturer or Amazon. I just like this product and Kuhn Rikon, in general.
