Good Grips can Opener Single Handed

Total winner. Don't wash it though

I have a few can openers but ordered this one for someone who has mobility challenges and who is only left hand dominant. This can opener was a challenge to use for the individual and is not relative to this item. I am ambidextrous so I was able to open the can using both hands. I was especially pleased with how the can opened as there are truly no sharp edges however, it took some time to get use to literally lifting the lids up verses having to use a fork, spoon or knife to lift the lid, if that makes sense. Truth be told, I had no idea that I completely opened the lid because the lid never lifted and the seams seemed untouched and that is because opener neatly slices the outer lip or ridge of the can. This is where you will need to hold and lift the lid. The old traditional can openers open the cans from the inside of the lip which forces the need of a utensil to lift the lid from the inside. I gave the item 3 stars for sturdiness because I do not believe that the plastic handle will last. Perhaps the merchant will consider having this item made from stainless steel for durability.

Not had it long so can't comment on longevity but for now, it works a charm. Simply attach the can opener and turn away from the body until done, then turn toward the body to loosen the can opener from the can to remove the lid. It glides smoothly and you can tell when it's done as it becomes too easy to turn. Both the lid and the can are safe to touch which is lovely. It cuts the outside instead of the inside so there is not need to be fishing out sharp lids anyway. Overall easy and safe can opener suitable for left and right handers which, if it continues to work, is good value.

A Quality product. Delivered & received as described & on time.

oh my gosh, I'm going to get one for everyone in the family for Christmas. This little gem works like magic. I still haven't figured out how it does it, but it grips the can by itself, turns effortlessly and cuts while leaving no sharp edges!!!! Amazing. Wish I knew about it sooner!
