Editorial Review: Product Description: The OXO Smooth Edge Can Opener cuts on the side of the can, below the edge - leaving no sharp edges on a can or lid. The side-wind knob with non-slip, comfortable grip is easy to use. The durable cutting wheel doesn't touch the can contents, while the lid pliers allow no-touch lid removal. It's a safe, hygenic way to open large & small lids. Amazon.com Review: Sometimes the wheel needs to be reinvented, and the side-operation can opener, like this Good Grips Smooth Edge model from Oxo, is a case in point. Designed to operate on the horizontal, the opener makes a smooth cut below the can edge. The lid doesn't fall into the can, and the opener makes minimal contact with can contents. Built-in lid pliers let you grip the lid without touching it for clean and efficient removal. Though the large handles may be unwieldy for small hands, Oxo does use soft, nonslip material for a more comfortable grip. Like most standard manual openers, this unit is designed for right-handed operation. It measures 7-1/2 inches long and is safe for the dishwasher. --Emily Bedard Average Rating:
 Rating:  - What a difference a can opener can make!I got fed up with buying can openers that did a poor job of opening cans or simply broke. I splurged on this opener and I absolutely love it. Seems built well enough to last a very long time. Cuts open cans with great precision. I've probably gained a few pounds because I can't resist opening another can with it! Rating:  - Useless - unable to open many cansI bought this because I saw a friend using one and thought it was cool. "no more sharp edges - why would you NOT want one?" Unfortunately many, many can lids are sealed with glue. After you cut through the can lid, which often requires 2 full passes, the lid does not easily pull off. Instead you must use the "beak" attachment to pry the lid off. This can be physically difficult (which means I'm called into the kitchen to pull the sword out of the stone). About 5% of cans I encounter ... Read More Rating: - Great Can OpenerWe've had the good grips smooth edge can opener for a few weeks now and are very, very happy with it. It is very easy to open with and does leave a clean edge. I have not had to fight or struggle with a can yet (as I did with my old ones). I did have to teach my family how to use it as it is different from a standard can opener. Once shown, it's very easy to use. Rating:  - Good design, bad executionNeed to complete a couple of turns for the can top to come off, but it does so w/out burrs or sharp edges as advertised. Not the easiest model to seat on a can top. The top grabber teeth are gimmicky. Rating: - Certainly better than traditional can openersI purchased this item from another retailer. I made this buy because of the recommendation of America's Test Kitchen. Pros: Smooth, easy action; no sharp edges. Cons: Bulky; difficult to attach to can (though I'm getting better). Summery: Works as advertised. |
