Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Looking for a way to eliminate kitchen gadgets? Throw out the ones--like electric can openers--that use up more room and energy than the job requires. After all, if it's a good one, a manual can opener is perfectly suited for the work. This model easily fits the bill and isn't bad to look at either. With brushed stainless handles, it hides fingerprints, and the black accents on the turn knob and on the end of the handles give it a chic and functional look. --Sally Bergesen

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST kitchen product purchase I have made!, July 24, 2001

This can opener is wonderful! It is very sharp so it opens cans so easily. Also, since it is all stainless, it can be cleaned in the dishwasher, which is the real reason I purchased it. When I my father used at my house he had to buy one for himself. I had been through two of the new "safe" can openers-one was manual which broke after a month or so of use and the other was an electric one which won't open but a few types of cans. So don't waste your money on those types. This can opener will be the last one you will need for a long time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally!, August 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Hoffritz Stainless-Steel Manual Can Opener (Kitchen)

My family and I are so tired of manual can openers that bend down lids of cans and don't cut them. Most hand held can openers hurt your fingers too. Finally here is one that does not hurt your hands and cuts lids off easily. I just wish it were not quite so heavy as frail hands might find it hard to hold. It looks nifty too!

Edit 12/2011: I had to get rid of this after about 2 years because the gears stripped. I highly recommend the Rosle Can Opener. It's for either hand, takes off the top instead of just the lid, and is easy to use.

I love this can opener. It works great for left or right handed people. It is really tough and heavy duty. I might buy another one in case this ever breaks, but I don't think it would be necessary. My husband likes it because it will chew through anything in seconds. It cuts like butter, and has a big gear and a good grip. The handles are nice and big so you can get a good grip on it, and it has a bottle opener on the top, which works great. I keep it in my favorite kitchen drawer.
