Amazon.com Review

Capable of opening any size can up to 7-1/2 inches high without tipping, this electric appliance operates with Cuisinart's usual efficiency, looks good on the counter, and works with a single touch. Can and lid are held in place until they are manually released, so there's no danger of splashing. For easy cleanup, the arm holding the lid's magnet and blade detaches. The can opener is clad in hard, gleaming plastic; stands 9-1/4 inches high; cleans with a damp cloth; and carries a three-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

3.0 out of 5 stars Must have, but needs improvement, February 7, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Cuisinart CCO-40BC Can Opener, Brushed Chrome (Kitchen)

In a household where someone is always cooking something, an electric can opener is a must have, and this one fits that bill just fine. A few things we like about it are:

1- VERY quiet operation
2- TALL - you can fit just about any sized can under it
3- Extremely smooth operation. Some can openers I have used are choppy
4- Opens cans effortlessly

A few things we don't like:

1- MADE OF PLASTIC!! Although it is brushed chrome, it does not tell you anywhere that the brushed chrome is PLASTIC!
2- Splatters the contents of the can all over the place when it completely cuts the lid off. For canned veggies, no problem, you just wipe up some water. But it makes a huge mess for canned tomatoes. Never really had this problem with electric can openers before.

Overall, it is worth the [money] for the convenience, but there are a few things that could be better.

1.0 out of 5 stars Easily the worst can opener I've ever owned, January 23, 2004

This review is from: Cuisinart CCO-40BC Can Opener, Brushed Chrome (Kitchen)

You're definitely paying extra for the Cuisinart name, and I'm suprised they'd put it on something so poorly designed. I was expecting more given their reputation. It's plastic, light, and not very stable. It's VERY difficult to get the can to mesh with the cutter blade ... it usually takes me three tries. The cutter arm is held on with a tiny T-shaped piece of plastic that splits easily (ask me how I know). And to top it all off, it yanks the top up and splashes food around when it's done. Don't bother ... I wish I hadn't. I feel like I've been taken.

2.0 out of 5 stars What a Disappointment..., October 21, 2003

This review is from: Cuisinart CCO-40BC Can Opener, Brushed Chrome (Kitchen)

1. It is PLASTIC, Cuisinart never advertised this as plastic, it has a great chrome color but plastic...boo...looks cheap
2. The Can Opener SPLATTERS way too much, what a mess.
3. Great Height and Color
Improvements are definitely needed.I'm so disappointed in Cuisinart, they used to provide quality products. This is not a quality product.
