I’d used for a while the “OXO”/Smooth Edge & Lid-Pliers Can Opener. And, one day it 😣👎🏽 broke in pieces on me when I opened a large food can. So, I went out & purchased a “Cuisinart” Electric can opening. I’ve been satisfied every since.👍🏽😊

Smooth edge openers aren't good for tuna because you can't use the lid to drain it
@shawbros
5 жыл бұрын
Wrong. Draining a smooth edge opened can is really easy. Just leave the lid on, hold the can with one hand, and the lid with the other hand, tilt the can downwards at about a 45 degree angle, and slightly open the lid until the liquid flows out at the speed you want. When the liquid stops flowing, hold the can upright and take the lid off.

EZ-DUZ-IT! I searched through the comments and only saw one that mentioned the only can opener that's still made in the USA. EZ-DUZ-IT can opener. The absolute best manual can opener. We've only had to replace them because, as our kids grew up and moved out, they each took one with them! $9.90 on Amazon or 2 for about $18. We were shocked that it wasn't included in the reviews!

I had a KitchenAid opener and when it fell apart after about 5 years I went through a few of the cheapie ones and I hated them, they hurt to use. I found one of the $35 soft openers for a whopping $3.50 at my local hardware store and I love it. I have limited use of my hands and I have no problem with this opener and it's great if you don't use everything in the can, you can put the top back on and it closes well. The only thing I have to go back to the old opener for is tuna since you can't squeeze out the juice with the larger rim lid.

the one for 1 handed use is likely designed for people with disabilities. it's never going to be as efficient as being able to use 2 hands, but products like these are designed to give disabled people a lot of independence. So like the button to open the ez squeeze up, that's there if you dont have 2 hands to pry it open. these things arent designed for people to be "lazy".

For manual can openers i prefer the soft-edge type because i find it easier to get the lid off the can. However, the can opener i usually use is an automatic one (normal type, not soft edge) with a built in magnet that causes the lid to stay behind when the can is removed. Another benefit of the soft-edge type is that the lid can be placed back on top of the can after it has been removed, which makes it ideal if you don't want to use the contents of the can all at once.

This is a very helpful video, I've found it hard to find a decent non-electric can opener recently. As a kid (in the early 2000's) I remember my mom got a swing-a-way(made in usa model) at a thrift store for $1 the thing lasted until recently, when I tried replacing it with a newer version of the same model, it was flimsy, and disintegrated within weeks of use.

Good thing you didn't get automatic can openers, because they have a nasty habit of leaving a razer sharp edge on the top.
