Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OneTouch Can Opener
Customer Review: A N D.....I T....O P E N S.....C A N S,.....T O O !
Summary: 4 Stars
I presently live in a "no-pets" building -- which has its advantages and
disadvantages. Advantages : not being bitten by other people's pets.
Disadvantages: Being lonely without a pet of my own.
The "One Touch Can Opener" -- though obviously an inanimate object -- can
easily be a "pet-substitute", as well as an excellent can opener! For, as it zips around your can, opening it, it makes a nice little "wiggle motion"....almost like a fish in the water! The shape of the "One Touch Can Opener" is also somewhat like a fish....somewhat like a long (aoproximately five inch) "pear-shaped" diamond drop. And so it fits nicely in your hand, as well!
I recently hurt my hand -- nothing serius, no bones broken, and any slight tendon damage will heal by itself, so my doctor tells me -- but for these few weeks while the tendons are healing, the "One Touch Can Opener" is not only handy, (as it was before), but also a God-send! This has gotten me to thinking of people who have difficulty opening cans with the usual type of can openers -- people with Arthritis, Multiple Schleroisis, or other ailments which cause loss of hand dexterity. What to me is a temporary God-send would be to them -- at least until cures are
found -- a permanent God-send! (And the doctor tells me -- yikes! -- that I now have a tiny bit of arthritis in my left hand, now too! Hopefully I can find a way to keep it -- like Captain Kirk's in "The Deadly Years" from spreading....) But anyway, for this reason alone, I highly recommend the "One Touch Can Opener". (It's also a treat for those who would enjoy employing robots....because, in essence, that is just what the "One Touch Can Opener" is!
There are times, however, that the "One Touch Can Opener" acts like a dog who has found a new bone! It just won't let go of the can, even when it has opened it! Round and round it goes....using up your batteries! There are other times when the "One Touch Can Opener" just will not lock onto any can, no matter how hard you try. (Like a finicky cat who won't eat anything you give it????) Luckily -- printed right on the top of the "One Touch Can Opener" is an 800 CUSTOMER SERVICE TELEPHONE NUMBER! I found the customer service people very kind and knowledgable, (even though the nice guy I got spoke with a heavy foreign accent. It's important, I've found, when listening to anyone with a foreign accent -- especially customer service personnel, for computers, can-openers, or anything else -- to listen carefully to WHAT they say, NOT how they say it! Besides, they speak English a lot better than I could ever speak in their language!) Anyway, the customer service agent told me to press the motor key, (top left, bottom of machine), and push the button on the top of the machine outwards -- both at the same time. This seemed to help me in all problems...except the one detailed in the last paragraph, below. But I'm going to call customer service again, and see if they can help me further on this new problem....
Of course, like any electrical appliance, don't get it wet! In opening up a can of tuna, I placed the can in the sink, so clean up from any spilled liquid would be easy. There wasn't much spilled liquid...but I forgot to take the "One Touch Can Opener" out of the sink! It got wet, and ruined. Even customer-service couldn't help me with this, and I had to buy another one.
It's true that this machine lifts off the ENTIRE top of any can, making ite easy to replace the top to put left-overs in the refrigerator. But --for such things as draining liquids from a can -- this lifting off of the entire top makes it a bit harder to drain. It takes practice...but draining CAN be done, even with the entire top of the can off, and no rim to lean on.
I have discovered that I am a "Survivalist". It only makes sense to be one, in this day and age, it seems to me. Sad sense....but still, sense.
I can't afford everything any survivalist should have....but canned goods that last....plus a solar battery recharger....plus this little, five-inch long "One Touch Can Opener", are things every survivalist, (or even those prearing for one or two day emergencies, like occasional black-outs), needs to have!
ONE BIG DRAWBACK: Batteries are easily replaced.....I F you can get the "One Touch Can Opener" opened! There is a narrow ridge separating the two halves of the machine....easily seen, but hard to separate! The "easiest" way to separate the two halves, for battery insertion, is to wedge an expired credit-card, or used gift-card, between the two halves of the machine...and, well, wriggle it! This sometimes works..it has for me in the past...but the two halves seem kinda close together right now. I've used my batteries about 30 times, (usually the maximum amount)...but can probably squeeze a few more cans opened by not using it for a few hours, (this "self-recharging" idea is good for all battery -- and even electrical appliances. It's a well-known fact that light-bulbs will last longer if you leave the lamp off for at least 20 minutes before turnining it back on again....and I guess other electical appliamces will do this too. Turning lights on and off quickly might be fun for children to do....but it uses more electicity, and shortens the life of any electrical appliance! So -- in this "global-warming", and "oil-crisis" world, another childhood joy must, it seems, disappear. Yet, since there are so many other fun things for children to do, my advise is to please find and substitute one of them! (Suggestion: teach them the above safetty measures, and have them use the "One Tocuh Can Opener"!)
Most products advertized on TV are there because they are just starting out.....and nationwide stores are leery of stocking them at the statt. But some "as seem on TV" products -- such as Oramge Glow -- are so good that discount, department, and specialty stores will finally begin carrying them. So, too, it will soon be for the "One Touch Can Opener"....that is, if store sales have not already begun!
