Electric Automatic Can Opener with Easy-Clean Detachable Cutting Lever

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I wanted the look of the stainless steel in a product that works well dependable. This one was reasonably priced with a good rating. It works just fine - better than my old one.

This is a good can opener

works as it should.

Nice and works good

For the price, its not worth it! I would expect when Hamilton Beach has their name on something it meant "quality, modern style and easy function". I AM HERE TO TELL YOU that HAMILTON BEACH must have abandoned that ideal. THE QUALITY was awful...it is very light and I have had cans pull it over. The handle that holds the magnet and cutter I would have thought it was metal, but NO is cheap, brittle plastic. As for styling, its not much different than those of the past and its current present competition. AS FOR THE FUNCTION: ITS DIFFICULT TO GET IT TO CATCH CANS AND WHEN IT DOES IT RARELY IS ABLE TO HOLD THEM. The magnet never holds the lid automatically. When I do manage to get it to work properly I have to put the magnet on the can lid....when it automatically stops the open can gets stuck under the mechanism requiring a bit of effort to free it and then having to clean up the splash of liquid that inevitably ends up all over the counter....The magnet will sometimes hold during this process but for the most part I am retrieving a lid out the food! I can not recommend this product for GenX. We remember when Hamilton Beach meant something....but those days like our youth, is NO LONGER! Since the box has been summarily destroyed because of the assumption of what it was suppose to be I will take it to one of my local thrifts shops and reluctantly donate it! I have since gone to the Dollar General and bought me a brand new $3.85 manual can opener that does what the Hamilton Beach seems to have a hard time doing...Opens cans! DO NOT BUY

This is one item I purchased and wish I didn’t. As an electric can opener it passes. You have to learn how to get the can in the right position to open a can. Once you open the can the lid is held on by the magnet. Pull the lid away from the magnet and liquid from the inside of the can goes all over. I dropped the ball on this purchase.

10/22/24 I received my Hamilton Beach "Extra-tall electric can opener. I had my former can opening for 28 years.( I won't mention here I got it from) It still works but not cutting through the cans as it used too. It's tall. The one I received is about 4 inches short, but I love it. My kitchen is black and staineless steel appliances so this little cutie fit right in with the decor. First, it's not that thin "tinny" type opener, it beautiful shine and sutrdy stainless steel. Unlike my plastic can oper, this one is much mor quieter, it almost hums when I pen a can.( my old one even in it's "youth" it sort moaned! I like that in easy clean the detachable blade. And it has a knife/scissoer sharpner in the back too. As I said it's a bit more dainty, but it's a better machine. And here's the good news, it's under $22.00 dollars, I paid 19.99 for one almost 30 years ago. Excellent working, good looking and thrifty, I recommend this produc.t!!

Nice can opener. I have used it a couple of times now and I really like it. Sits nice on my kitchen counter and looks good works great price is good. I will use it for a long while. The plug stores nicely in the back.
