save your money - these are not as good as the old Swing-A-Ways,
By
This review is from: Amco Swing-A-Way 407RD Portable Can Opener, Red (Kitchen)
I can confirm that these aren't the Swing-A-Way openers of yesteryear that have inspired generations of loyal followers. The old Swing-A-Way openers were made in the USA and lasted for decades. I've bought two of the current models in the past 5 years based on the quality of the old openers I remember from growing up, and they've both been duds. Instead of decades, now they're wearing out in just a year or two - the knurled tooth on the wheels that grip the can rims give up the ghost much earlier than they should - probably softer steel from the new cheaper manufacturing. I can literally see a groove on the teeth on the wheel where the cans have worn out the teeth, and I can promise you that we eat way less canned food than my parents and grandparents did! I'm about to buy my third can opener in 5 years, and I can assure you that it WON'T be another one of these shoddy openers!!!! These are cheap steel, wears out in a year or two - don't waste your money!

Beware Lightweight Swing-Aways Made in China,
By
This review is from: Amco Swing-A-Way 407RD Portable Can Opener, Red (Kitchen)
I received this item 9/2011. It is made in China and is not heavy durable metal like the U.S.A. model. Since 2008, models 107, 407, 709 and 6090 appear to be made in China and are inferior to the original which had "Made in USA" stamped on the metal arm. I will no longer purchase Swing-a-Way brand due to quality issues.

This review is from: Amco Swing-A-Way 407RD Portable Can Opener, Red (Kitchen)
This is a simple, well built device. They do wear out. I'm on my third one in 45 years.
