Cuisinart - Deluxe Can Opener - Black

After a series of manual can openers that would stop gripping the can's lip, I decided that it's time for something more consistent and durable. The one feature that this automatic can opener has - the lever removal for cleaning- also happens to be its biggest flaw. Opening the lever so you can place the can is where this problem occurs. Open too much, and the level falls out. If you try to open “just enough”, the can may or may not fit. I admit that this is nit-picking a little, but it's a real issue. But beyond that, this can opener works as designed. Once it starts, it opens the can and stops on its own. Infinitely better than struggling with a manual opener that won't even turn because it can grip the can lip.

We have become disillusioned with Cuisinart products. This can opener has the opener portion so close to the turning wheel that a can lid cannot get in between, rendering it unusable. If buying one, I would recommend checking it before paying for it to make sure it will work. You can tell by looking at how is operates.

Small but does the job well. The black can opener is stylish and cleans well after use. The last one I had was big and bulky so this one is great

The Cuisinart Deluxe Can Opener works extremely well. No need to hold the can once it starts. Just an FYI: If you're opening something with a lot of liquid, just pull up lever before it reaches full circle to avoid any splatter

Opens small cans of beans very easily. Have not tried large cans yet. I like that it hides the cord and that I can remove the lever for easy cleaning.
