Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Black & Decker's cordless can opener is a power tool for the kitchen. Snap it on a can and let it go; the opener "walks" around the can on its own and shuts off automatically. Lightweight and ergonomically designed, it features an extra-sharp cutting tool, a large blade lever, and foolproof grip. Charged up in the power base, the can opener runs for more than 30 minutes before it needs recharging. That's a lot of tuna! --Lynne Sampson

Can your "opening frustrations" with this gem!,
By "baklavaschwartz" (The NJ Meadowlands, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Black & Decker KEC500 Ergo Cordless Can Opener (Kitchen)
I'd been using a manual OXO can opener for the last 2 years, but recently, it developed rust and ceased to function. I grew up with electric can openers, but have not had a single one in 25 years on my own--until now. I own the Ergo electric carving knife and loved it so much that I decided to give their can opener a try, and it's a fabulous appliance! I'm disabled (fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis) so clumsy, heavy openers won't do. The Ergo is balanced, small, comfortable to hold and use, and it does the job quickly and neatly. The ni-cad batteries have lasted an entire week (so far) on a single charge. The charging base is small and light, and sits easily out of the way. I love the way the cutting element can be removed for cleaning, then slips right back in! Even if you're not disabled, this is a terrific appliance, and the value is greater, IMHO, than the conventional electric, and hand-held openers out there:)

Go for it. Move the opener to the can instead of the other way around. Much easier to use than the Krups portable. Operates just like a traditional opener with a blade. The grip fits your hand very easily. We love it.

Highly recommended to all can-opening enthusiasts,

This review is from: Black & Decker KEC500 Ergo Cordless Can Opener (Kitchen)
This is clearly the best of the best. It's a gadget that's both well designed (as in pretty) AND does what it is expected to do, which is open cans, better than I expected. The 'cutting' module is very easy to remove and then re-attach, for cleaning purposes.I should mention that the recharging base has this new technology where you don't really 'plug' the device into anything. You simply 'drop' it in the base and the can opener gets charged just by being there. We didn't own it for long enough to verify the claim, but the manual claims the it doesn't need to be charged more often than once a month, with about 30 minutes of continuous can-opening life after a full charge.
