One-To-Go Electric Can Opener, Red

When available, I always look at videos for recommendations. I loved the videos of this cute little gadget right at the time my old upright died. It looked so easy and I loved the pretty aqua color. I bought a red one for my daughter because after the first few frustrating tries, I found it to be a 5-star item. When I tried it at first, it took a little getting used to and a few times it HAD actually worked but it didn't LOOK like it did; I fumbled trying to get the lid off. Because it doesn't look like the old way of opening, I had to rethink my approach. Now I realize even I could do a video because it's like high school algebra. At first you think this is stupid and doesn't make sense. After something clicks in your head, the mist clears and you can open cans all day and think what a wonderful idea someone had. Couldn't say 5 stars at the beginning because my initial effort failed. I'm sure other people just turned it on and used the can but if you get one and are annoyed, just try it a few times and you'll love it!

This is a very easy to use item. I have 4 can openers 3 manual one electric, they give me half open cans and for the electric, you can't position can properly enough for it to open, very useless. Mama kitchen opener you just set it on the can and it does evverything else itself!! Don't even half to stop it.

I bought this for a blind friend. I had to find an opener that would STOP when can was fully opened. I had previously sent another one back. The opener seems to latch onto can easily too. This one STOPS! The magnet is not strong enough to pull the lid off but my friend can manage that, especially since there are no sharp edges!! Only a 4 because it is a Christmas gift and I am not sure how my friend will like it. Well packaged and easy to follow instructions included.

The media could not be loaded.  I'M DISABLED!!! I HAVE LEFT-SIDE PARALYSIS!!!This can opener was used to successfully open one standard 16oz can of BUSH'S BEST Original Baked Beans!The second time I tried to use it to open another identical can, it got about half way around and the gears no longer gripped the can lip tight enough to continue! It just sat there grinding away with slipping gears and wouldn't shut off on its own! THERE IS NO WAY TO COAX IT FARTHER ONCE IT STOPS WORKING PROPERLY! there is no way to cleanly finish opening the can by removing and placing the can opener at a different point on the lid! THIS WAS A TOTAL WASTE OF GOOD MONEY!!! DO NOT BUY IT!!! DO NOT RECOMMEND IT TO ANYBODY!!!$40 (with tax) to open one can??? ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME??? I HAD TO USE A PLIERS TO TEAR THE LID OFF BY GRABBING THE LID AT THE ALREADY CUT PLACES AND BENDING IT UP AND ROLLING IT BACK!!! YOU TRY AND DO THAT WITH ONLY ONE HAND!!!These UPDATES will be provided regularly for ONE FULL YEAR and end on Nov 10th 2024!UPDATE (Nov 10th, 2023): It's not that the gear wasn't gripping the lid tight enough to continue moving the can opener around the can; it's that the internal gears driving the outside gear stripped!!! If they used cheap nylon gears instead of stainless steel involute gears with deep teeth to drive the outside gear, THEY'RE WRONG!UPDATE (Nov 15th, 2023): I received a free replacement from Amazon. It has been used successfully to open three cans. The 4th can I tried to open with it did not get cut fully through the metal all the way around the can even though the auto off feature activated and indicated it was finished cutting the can open. I had to lift the cut part and bend it up and down repeatedly to break the lid free on the remaining approximately one inch worth of uncut metal before it broke free.update (Dec 10th, 2023): I just received my Subscribe and save and another case of Bush's Original Baked Beans. This can opener failed yet again to fully cut the lid 100% of the way around the top. It completed 360 degrees and stopped as it should, but I had to pry the lid back at the cu5t part and repeatedly bend it up and down at the remaining uncut part of the lid (only partially scored for about an inch) until the lid broke free. THAT'S TWO FAILURES IN A ROW AND TWO OUT OF FIVE CANS FOR A RESOUNDING AND INEXCUSABLE 40% FAILURE RATE! I standby my words. This can opener is ABSOLUTE GARBAGE!!!UPDATE (Dec 12th, 2023) - I just tried to open the 6th can with the replacement can opener I received from Amazon and it FAILED yet again to fully cut through the lid all the way around the top of the can which necessitated my having to pry the lid up at the cut part and repeatedly bend it at the scored part until it finally broke free. The first can opener I purchase cost me $37.99 + tax and only successfully opened one can before the internal gears stripped for a 100% failure rate of the product thereafter!The replacement was provided for free by Amazon. The replacement can opener successfully opened only three cans and failed to fully cut the lid off on cans 4, 5, and 6 for a resounding 50% failure rate in performance! I see no signs that there will be any improvement. The only signs I do see is that the Merchant doesn't care about the customer and doesn't care about improving the product, but DOES CARE to lower the price from $37.99 to $28.49 to maintain sales numbers in light of the negative reviews!I still stand by my opinion that this can opener is ABSOLUTE GARBAGE!!!I did however find another somewhat similar can opener for the disabled and it is sold by a company with a HIGH REPUTATION of providing GOOD QUALITY products!Their offered can opener for one-handed use DOES NOT REQUIRE BATTERIES!!!Their offered can opener for one-handed use costs even less than this POS at ONLY $26.99!!!The company I'm referring to is HAMILTON BEACH!!!Here's their product link!https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002R0RPOA/?coliid=I2E6XD5RLTJD1T&colid=1XPWB0OYCRSZT&psc=1&ref_=_sed_dpThe limit on product videos per review is ONE! I had to remove my previous video showing the gears had stripped in order to upload this latest video showing the failure of the replacement can opener.I will never purchase anything from Kitchen Mama for the rest of my life! I suggest you do the same.

When I first got this, I kept all the packaging as I was expecting to return it. The first time I used it, I thought it hadn't worked as I saw no cut in the lid and it didn't come off. When I picked up the can, the lid just popped off.You have to get used to how to use it, placing it properly at the rim of the can and tilting it slightly so the the cutter and gear engage (definitely does not work if the lid is dented) You also have to get used to the fact that it doesn't cut into the top of the lid like a regular can opener, but rather around the rim. The biggest flaw in it is that the magnet that is supposed to lift the lid off is too small and weak, so to get the lid off you have to gently push up on the rim. Once you get this right, it really works well and is quite entertaining to watch.I was starting to have trouble with using a manual can opener. This does a great job and is easy to store in a drawer, instead of having to take up room on the counter.

This product is good. It does the job. Instructions need improvement.

Funciono solo cuatro veces que lo utilizado y ya no abre ninguna lata

This can opener works brilliantly.So, when you get a can that doesn’t have a ring pull, and mostly they are the value ones which when you’re on a budget find their way into your trolley each week, then you need one of these openers.It takes three AAA batteries which last for ages and it effortlessly opens any shape can.The best bit is it doesn’t leave a jagged edge and the magnet means it’s going to make removing the lid simple and safe.It has an auto stop once the can is open and the whole process takes a few seconds.It has a weighty feel and a striking colour, which adds either a pop of colour to the kitchen or you can choose a classic and go with the black and white.Either way you’ll never be scuppered by a can chick peas again!It is one of the most helpful, practical things I’ve purchased lately, and I’d recommend giving it a try.It’s priced fairly and is excellent quality.I’ve had it a while now and opened said chickpeas and not looked back.I hope you find my review helpful.

cette ouvre boite et tres bien je le recommende

Vraiment pratique et le dévoile est nette dans tranchant . J’adore et je recommande

j'étais sceptique au début mais après utilisation l'appareil est de bonne qualité et ouvre parfaitement les boites de conserve. Certaines boite on un peux de mal à être ouverte car le métal utilisé est tendre et se déforme au passage de l'outil mais un 2eme passage en viens rapidement à bout. plastique de bonne qualité et finition excellente.
