Product Description
The Kuhn Rikon Slim Safety LidLifter safely and easily removes lids, leaving a smooth edge that is suitable for resealing with a plastic lid (dog and cat food cans, coffee cans). The can opener is made of 18/8 stainless steel with a polished finish and the turn knob is comfortable to hold and turns easily. It cuts from the side leaving the rim smooth, not sharp or jagged. The tiny jaws of the exclusive Lid Gripper clamp onto the lid rim and lifts off the top. The turn knob is of a durable soft rubber so it is comfortable to hold and turns easily. Slim design for convenient storage.

Great!,

This review is from: Kuhn Rikon Slim Safety Lid Lifter, White (Kitchen)
I asked for this for Christmas because I like gadgets and because using the same "regular" can opener for cat food and my food was pretty gross.
It's true that it's VERY confusing to figure out at first. The instructions are not clear at all. Just open it up and look on the underside. There is a rubber "traction wheel" and a geared "cutting edge." You want to put it on the can so the edge of the can is pinched between those two wheels when you close the handles. After you figure this out, it becomes clearer how to line up the little arrow on the top to position it correctly from then on. There are little metal "beaks" on the side of each handle. Don't confuse these with cutting edges. These are the "pliers" that you use to easily lift the lid off after opening the can. Once you have that figured out, this is easy to use and above all CLEAN. I'm very satisfied with my new toy. I understand from reading elsewhere that it has a limited lifespan and will stop cutting and need to be replaced eventually. I like it enough that I won't mind doing so when the time comes.

I really like that this can opener doesn't leave sharp edges. It takes a few tries to figure out how to use can opener but once you get the hang of it, it's super easy to use.
You do need to use an old styled can opener for some things (such as tuna) because with this opener, you aren't able to use the lid to drain off the liquid in a can.

Easily the easiest can opener available!,
This review is from: Kuhn Rikon Slim Safety Lid Lifter, White (Kitchen)
I've enjoyed my Oxo can opener that leaves no sharp edges for a year or so, and the only thing I didn't like was the way it couldn't open rectangular cans, because it's side-mounted handle would hit the can, and stop the entire opening gprocess till it was restarted an inch or so away from the corner.
I saw this Kuhn Rikon sllim safety one, and it had it's handle on the top, not the side...Bought it, tried it on seveal cans, and it's the easiest one to open can with! It opens along the seam, rather than actually cutting, and at first, after "going round" the top of a can, it doesn't look any different. Then, grip the top edge of the can with the side "pliers" on the can opener, and the entire top lid comes off! If you are so inclined, you can easily put teh top back on, and it stays! This is easy on the hands light weight, and seems to open easily any can I offer to it! Very safe for kids, as it doesn't leave sharp or ragged edges as with the can openers that have been around for over 30 years. I'm giving my Oxo to Salvation Army!
