1.0 out of 5 stars Black & Decker Blew It, November 14, 2002

I purchased an under the cabinet Can Opener from B&D twelve years ago for my former apartment (my daughter lives there now) and it still works beautifully. However, over time, it has become pretty ugly and needs replacing. I purchased this model in August 2002 for my new apartment and the piece of junk broke down in two months (push down handle broke in half). Whatever happened to the B&D quality? I want to buy a new one for my daughter and replace mine also but will NEVER use B&D again!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars After 1 year Works great!, December 22, 2004

After reading some of the reviews here I had to post and say what a great product this is. I tried several other openers and found them lacking in quality and design. However this one has both! The only knock I would have is that the directions on mounting are somewhat unclear as one gentlemen found out when he went to mount it. You need to make sure that the handle has enough room to operate, you just cant slap it in under your cabinet, it needs to be near the front edge, as close as possible. They also provide spacers to level it off. It has been very sturdy, and without problems. One other thing I did notice is that placing the can in the opener was a little different from what I was used to, I beleive this is because the way the can openr is able to hold the can, (so you don't have to) as it opens the can, which I thought was cool because you can start the can and get your bowl or whatever and come back and there is your open can hanging there. I have not tried this with anything large though, mostly soup and veggie cans. Besides for the price, this is a deal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works Great After 4 Years, July 21, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Black & Decker Spacemaker Under-Counter Can Opener (Kitchen)

I've had this for 4 years and it's a fantastic kitchen tool. It has opened every size can & I have never once pulled out the manual opener. The installation was frustrating. It may be designed for different width cabinets. We used some wood shims (thin wood strips) inside the cabinet to attach with the mounting strip and it's very secure. Maybe you could try shims underneath the cabinet if clearance is your problem. Bottom line - frustrating installation, fantastic opener
