This review is from: Cuisinart SCO-60 Deluxe Stainless Steel Can Opener (Kitchen)

This is the worst joke I have ever had inflicted upon me. We wanted a sturdy, durable can opener that would last more than a year, and this appeared to be the solution. Backed by the Cuisinart brand I was comfident we would be in good shape. It wasn't in stock for 3 or 4 months, but we waited patiently convinced it was the answer to our prayers.

It lasted about a month before it broke. It would not latch onto the cans any longer. It was heavy, solid, made by what I thought was a quality brand name, and it would not work. What a disappointment. But I was confident Cuisinart would set things right, so I e-mailed them.

Wow, what an eye opener about this company! I was told I had to MAIL this heavy object back to them ON MY DIME. Brand new, less than 2 months old, broken and not working, and I am supposed to lay out the heft shipping fee over and above the expensive price tag, which would only be worth the money if the product actually worked.

End of the story, we bought another can opener and it is working fine so far. Eventually it will break as well, nothing is made with any substance any more. We really thought the Cuisinart would last, and if there were any problems at such an early stage they would ship out a replacement, brand new, and prepay the postage for the return like truly reputable companies I have dealt with in the past.

This unit is defective, and their customer service stinks. Save your money, it does not live up to the image, and if you buy it you will get stuck with the postage bill trying to return it. We refused to throw good money after bad, so we are eating the cost. But we now know better than to buy another Cuisinart product in our lifetimes, so that is worth something to us at least.

This is my edited last review of this can opener. I reviewed it earlier and mentioned I would follow-up if necessary. I fear the product has a major problem. Again I used it about 4 times and it was simply outstanding. My wife used this second one today and managed to break it again her first try! The same plastic insert that busted before broke again. They obviously have a problem with this insert as I cannot imagine it breaking the second time around. Granted, my wife may not have the skill level I have when using a can opener, however, I now have no choice but to give up this little venture and buy the "West Bend" can opener which has such great reviews here on "Amazon.com". The up-side is that I will save $25.

1.0 out of 5 stars Stay Away from Cuisinart Can Openers, March 6, 2007

Like the "Cuisinart SCO-60 Deluxe Stainless Steel Can Opener SCO-60" also reviewed on this site our Cuisinart "Deluxe" stainless steel can opener broke within a couple weeks of buying it. The device appears solid, but the actual blade attachment is connected to the rest of the body with a seemingly very fragile plastic piece that will shatter after little use.
