Please allow me to place my judgment in the context of my circumstances and experience. I just wrapped up a divorce in which I lost my home and nearly all of my possessions. I am living (squatting) in a 200 square foot accessory structure while I seek a professional license that will help me to get back on my feet. Space and money are extremely tight, meaning everything I purchase must be essential and effective. Kuhn Rikon's can opener is perfect. It does its job well. It offers other features. Its durability means it's a bargain in the long run.
Let's take those one by one.
First, it opens cans unusually well. You don't have to squeeze the snot out of a plier-like device to force a blade through the can. You simply plop this thing on the top of a can and turn to crank. It grips the can for you, and it opens the can with minimal force. I don't have arthritis, but I imagine that this would be a welcome relief if I did. I don't have children, but I imagine the blunt edges that this opener produces would give me peace of mind if I did. A Kuhn Rikon opens cans extremely well.
Second, it's multifunctional. Admittedly, the fact that a can opener opens cans might not seem altogether impressive. That is, after all, the tool's purpose. Kuhn Rikon has packed more in there. It also pries pull tabs, loosens jar lids, and grips bottle tops. With my tiny space and limited budget, having one tool able to do all of that makes a huge difference. It means I don't have the clutter of several kitchen devices or the expense additional devices. One object and one purchase, I save space and money.
Third, the price is even better in light of the opener's longevity. Yes, there are cheaper can openers out there, but they just don't work as well when new, and they tend to degrade rapidly. Kuhn Rikon's can openers last. The one that I lost in the divorce, a different model than this one, had seen heavy use in my kitchen for years, and it showed no signs of fatigue or wear. It worked every bit as well after years of use and abuse as it did when it was new. In my possibly warped view of budgeting, that makes a Kuhn Rikon can opener a bargain. The initial purchase price is spread over many more uses than an inferior can opener, gradually reducing the cost per use below the "bargain" can opener.
Combining the pleasing function, multitude of features and product durability, I think this is probably the best can opener out there. Even broke and cramped, it was worth buying.
Regarding the issue mentioned below with it not being able to open some cans, I now believe it depends on the technique used in attaching the opener to the can. The opener needs to be horizontally level with the lid during the first turn of the knob so that it can properly "grab" the can. This can be accomplished by looking at the can and opener from the side and making sure that the metal "nipple", for lack of a better term, touches the lid and that the opener appears horizontal with the lid during the first turn of the knob. Unfortunately, it's too easy to not do this correctly. The slightest tilt up or down of the opener during that first knob turn, and it won't grab the can properly. It may still appear to have grabbed, but will turn more loosely and not open the can. The manufacturer should improve the design to make attaching the opener to the can properly easier.
UPDATE 2019-05-09:
The other day, it wouldn't open a can. It appeared to be trying to cut too high on the lip of the can. Tried a few times. Wouldn't open it. Tried a second can, same size, same product, and it opened it just fine. I visually compared the 2 cans and they looked identical, except the can that wouldn't open had a white colored lid with graphics, while the can that opened had a silver colored lid with no graphics. Both cans were bumble bee tuna. Very strange. Now I know why some reviews here stated that after a while it wouldn't open cans. It appears that some cans are made a bit differently that this opener can't open them. Taking 1 star off for this.
ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW:
I bought this opener after trying the Hamilton Beach Smooth Touch electric can opener (76606ZA). That electric opener worked great, except it left metal slivers along the rim of the can after opening, even when following the mfr instructions to not go beyond one complete rotation. Maybe I just got a defective unit, but other Amazon reviewers mentioned the same problem, so I spent a bit of time researching an alternative "safety" can opener, and ultimately chose this one because of its multi-tool design and versatility.
I've only opened one can with it so far, but so far, so good. NO METAL SLIVERS! It's easy to use if you follow the simple instructions. No instructions needed after the first use. It's fairly easy to rotate the knob. There is very little resistance. I followed the instructions and did not go beyond one single rotation (to prevent the possibility of metal slivers), and sure enough, no metal slivers!! Not one! And no sharp edge to the lid. Very happy about that! My second favorite feature is the jar loosener that releases the vacuum seal on jar lids to make them easy to open. No more banging the jar against the counter or trying to pry it open with a knife. The other features are less useful for us personally, but I'm sure others will appreciate them.
So far, love this product. Hopefully, it lasts (2 year warranty). I will try to update this review if anything changes.
