Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OneTouch Can Opener
Customer Review: Awful product
Summary: 1 Stars
It really is a shame that you can't give 0 stars for an item. My mother bought this for me for Christmas. The day we opened it, the second we put the batteries in, the thing's blade started turning and WOULD NOT STOP until we yanked out the batteries. It was fine when we put them back in later, but when I went to use it today, it punctured a hole in the side of my can of beans, dripping baked bean juice all down the side of the can, and then refused to move at all. Not only am I irritated that my mother wasted her money on this piece of junk (I hope she can return it somewhere), but I'm still hungry, and my can of tasty beans has been wasted. If my mother can't return this waste of money, I'll gladly throw it away with less remorse than I had when I threw away my punctured 59 cent can of beans.Customer Review: Great while it lasted . . .

I had one of these and it worked great for about a year and then the battery started to run down -- once it ran down, it stuck to the can like the other reviewers here mentioned. My dh managed to pry it off and change the battery but it never ran right after that and I eventually threw it out. Needless to say, having been without one for a year or so now, I just ordered a new one! Even though it only lasted a year, it was VERY convenient while it lasted and I LOVED not having to hurt my hands using a regular can opener and it was extremely easy to use. . . if I can get another year out of the new one I'll be perfectly satisfied. Just beware of the sharp edges it leaves -- your hubby or whomever takes out the garbage could hurt themselves, so be sure to discard the empty can safely!Customer Review: Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
I had seen TV commercials for this and it looked so nifty so I order one for my 92 year old mother. It only made it about 1/4 of the way around the can when it jammed. I followed the included instructions and used the reset button multiple times. It still couldn't move on. With difficulty I was able to get it off of the can, using the reset button and another trick they described in the instructions. Then I realized that, if it had taken the lid off, it would have left sharp edges at the top of the can. I had mistakenly assumed it was like those safety can openers that cut through the lid from the side and leave no sharp edges. I would rather have the sharp edges on the lid as in old-fashioned products than at the top of the can, that is if it worked. Needless to say, I returned it.Customer Review: The Can Opener for Those of Us with Wrist Problems
Summary: 4 Stars
I've had sore wrists for some time due to overuse in work and play, so this thing is a real godsend. We use the opener every day without problems. Just put the One-Touch on top of the can, press the big button and go do something else while it goes round and round. It stops automatically after about 30 seconds and the lid adheres magnetically to the One-Touch for easy disposal. Batteries last about 90 days with daily use. I can tell when they are starting to die by the changing sound of the One-Touch. Only drawback is that it leaves a sharp edge on the can itself. We use a plastic lid from a Pringles can to cover the dog food until it is all used. The One-Touch is worth the money if you don't mind the small inconveniences that come with a fairly complex gadget.Customer Review: This actually works!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this can opener for my mother who is 87 and has trouble operating conventional can openers. I thought for sure it would turn out that it wouldn't work as easily as shown on the tv ads, and I have to admit I was hesitant about paying so much for an item that was going to maybe just end up in a drawer. Three days after I placed my order the can opener arrived. I couldn't wait to give it a try! And.... bingo...it worked just like on the tv ad! I was amazed how simple it was, just place it on the can lid and push the button. It was just that simple. I think this is the first "as advertised on tv" item that I have ever bought that actually works the same as shown on the tv hype advertisement. My mom loves it! So far, so good!
