Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of KitchenAid Can Opener, Red
Customer Review: Absolute Trash -- Do not buy
Summary: 1 Stars
When we first got this can opener (and, yes, we have this model, not the one that comes with the set, it has the chrome on the handles), we were quite impressed. It has a good heft and sliced through lids like a hot knife through butter, it's also quite attractive.
Then one day it didn't work quite as well, then a little worse, and a little worse. Now it just makes holes in cans and kinda mangles their edges if you squeeze it hard enough and really, really crank the handle.
Upon careful inspection we discovered that the teeth of the gears weren't lining up correctly this had caused them to grind down each other's teeth, which only made things worse. We kept looking and discovered that the gear misalignment problem was caused by a misalignment of the handles. I bent the handles back inline (so their holes lined up) and was suprised at how easily they bent (but this explained why sometimes, if I held them just right, the can opener would work a little better).
And therein seems to lie the problem. The handles, though heavy, are made of a very easliy bent metal, and once they are bent, the can opener is pretty much worthless.
Description of KitchenAid Can Opener, Red
The oversized knob, super sharp blade and sturdy, comfortable handles allow you to open cans quickly and easily. If food gets on the opener, don't fret, simply run this gadget through a dishwasher cycle for thorough cleaning. It even matches your red KitchenAid appliances!Heavy, sturdy, and stylish, this tool cuts the top off any size can with ease. It's made of 18/8 stainless steel polished to a mirror finish, with red enamel-like handles, and is dishwasher-safe. The opener's handles are shaped for a firm grip; they're weighty enough to provide control, and they have holes to facilitate hanging on a hook or peg. The opener measures 8-1/2 inches long. KitchenAid says the first year of the opener's lifetime warranty against defects is hassle-free; the company will ship a replacement at no cost and without question if a defect is detected. --Fred Brack
