Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This gadget opens any size can with ease and without the cutting blade ever touching food so it remains cleans and sanitary. The cleverly engineered mechanism also minimizes sharp edges on both cans and lids for safety. For additional safety, the opener has a patented Lid Gripper that lifts lids without the need to touch them. Housed in rugged, white plastic, the opener works equally well for right-handers and left-handers, its handles fit comfortably in the hand, and the large knob can be gripped easily. All in all, it operates with remarkable smoothness. The opener measures 6-3/4 inches long and carries a 90-day guarantee against defects. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars Smooth Operation, December 23, 2001

I absolutely love this can opener. It is the most effortless opener I have ever used. Once you get use to the face down, rather than sidewards removal, you will appreciate the total ease of operation. It's like skating on ice... such smoothness. The lid comes right off and leaves no rough edges because the whole top is removed! Safe and well worth it!

This is a wonderful can opener!!! It is easy to use and leaves no sharp edges. It cuts along the side instead of the top. My husband even enjoys opening cans now!! It can be a little tricky at first to figure out how to position, but once you've done it a few times it becomes second nature.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect For Those Not Strong Handed, January 23, 2002

By

This review is from: Tupperware E-Series Can Opener (Kitchen)

After having surgery on my right (dominant) hand I needed something that would make opening cans easier. Sure my husband could help, but what about when he was at work?

This can opener is extremely easy to use. It might take some getting accustomed to, since it sits on top of the lid, rather than the side of the lip. Since it doesn't touch the contents of the can, washing it is virtually a non-existant issue. Sure, you will want to give it a wipe down here and there, but thats about it!

You won't believe how smooth it cuts, and with little effort either. Another thing you won't believe is the sturdy build of this can opener. It's not cheap plastic no way! Don't let the price sway you it's really reasonable when you consider the life you get out of tupperware. I think this can opener will last me for the long haul.
