Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OneTouch Can Opener
Customer Review: BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS PRODUCT!
Summary: 1 Stars
The big feature that attracted me for this product was "No Sharp Edges." It shows this on their website and the TV ads. Last week when I made blueberry muffins on Thanksgiving morning, I tossed the can into the garbage. Later that morning as I added more garbage from cooking my myriad dishes, I pushed down on the garbage and sliced the heck out of my pinky finger! It felt like I had stuck my hand into a light socket! I was up in a mountain cabin and not near a hospital, but my firefighter/EMT son was able to get the bleeding to stop and then applied surgical glue from his medical kit to close the wound. I have no feeling on the outside of my pinky finger -- it feels like it does when your foot is asleep (pins and needles)! I'm so angry about this as I always used to place my cans upside down in the trash -- but since this can is advertised as "NO SHARP EDGES" it never dawned on me that the TOP of the can could be so dangerous! BE VERY CAREFUL!!!!!!!!Customer Review: Money Well Spent
Summary: 5 Stars
I received the can and jar opener as a gift from my dad. I have very limited use of my left hand, making it difficult to use a regular can opener. In addition, I am wheelchair-bound so it is not always easy to reach the counter or stand while using a regular can opener. The One Touch solved my problem. I don't have to do much, just place the can opener on top of a can and press a button. No need to worry about the sharp edges, seen with a regular can opener, because the One Touch cuts below the lid. Once in awhile I need to hit the reset button, located to the left of the cutter, but that is it. The jar opener is useful as well. I don't have to apply as much strength and I can open jars and bottles of all sizes. I would recommend this product, along with the jar opener, for people with limited use of their arms; espcially those with arthritis. This product can be found everywhere, Walgreens, Target, etc., and costs approximately $20.Customer Review: Good idea, bad design
Summary: 2 Stars
I loved this can opener at first. It was, and still is, nice to press a button and it opens. The biggest pro is that the lid isn't sharp like with the regular can openers. Although the top can edge is a bit sharper than with a regular can opener. - My fiancee cut his hand scoopping out wet dog food. As others say, it eats battery power fast. -For me, I might open 8 cans (max) on one set of batteries. And I don't notice any slowing down, it just dies. Everytime the battery has died while cutting open a can. The first time mine ran out of batteries, I broke the can opener prying it off the can. I thought it was a fluke, so I bought another one. Batteries still die in the middle of opening a can. I'm just more careful prying it off now. It's fun at first. But I don't understand why it goes through so many batteries so fast. If I knew that, I wouldn't have purchased. Also, it is loud.Customer Review: Turning The Cans
Summary: 5 Stars
There are so many who use the needs of an actual can opener from soup to canned carrots. While you keep turning those cans, you lose your control in your hand. With the one touch can opener, it is easy, and simple to operate. All it takes is the push of the black button on top, and it automatically opens your cans without the burden of hurting your hands. It is very convient, and opens any kind of can that you need to use. All it takes are two AA batteries installed into the can opener, and you can open your cans all the time, easily and conviently. My mother and I each have a difficult time opening all kinds of cans, and my mother has multiple sclerosis. Now, she doesn't have a difficult time opening those cans. I really love this great one touch can opener a lot, and you'll love it a lot too.

Customer Review: ran out of battery while opening can - now can't take it off can
Summary: 2 Stars
I got this elsewhere for $9.99, and I was happy with it for the first few times that I used it. It worked well, cut the lid off without sharp edges. This time, it ran out of battery power halfway through and now I can't get it off the can. I can't reverse it because I have no power. I can't change batteries because the battery cover is the whole length of the opener, and you can't open it because it's stuck to the can. I finally threw both away. (it was only $9.99 , and so I had gotten 2 now I will check the battery level EVERY time before I use it. What a pain) Watch out. I think I got 3 or 4 uses out of the first one. I would be more upset if it had cost me more. Amazon prices are usually pretty competitive. I'm not sure why its so much.. then again prices change on Amazon all the time in case you guys haven't noticed (sometimes during the same day)
