Product Description
The OXO Steel Can Opener is a kitchen essential. The stainless steel blades make it durable, and the large, soft turning knob is easy to manage. Also includes a built-in bottle opener.
Amazon.com Review
With a large, smooth, plastic twist handle that fits nicely in the palm, this can opener operates with a minimum of effort. Flexible rubber fins on the handle absorb the tension necessary to keep the opener in place, while sharp, stainless-steel teeth bite into lids with the agility of a great white shark. A built-in bottle opener completes the design. Sturdy construction and a large twisting knob make this one of the best can openers on the market. Like all Oxo products, this tool is dishwasher-safe. --Laurie Notaro

better, faster, easier than an electric can opener September 14, 2002

I grew up with electric can openers that inevitably broke or had a hard time attaching to the can, then the contents often spilled as I removed it from the magnetic holder. Back then the alternative was a hand-held manual one that was actually painful to use. After marrying we bought an electric can opener which broke soon thereafter. While waiting for the day when it was to be repaired (which ended up being never), I bought this OXO manual can opener thinking it would be a temporary and inexpensive solution. It is awesome. We have been using ours for about 5 years and it is still going strong. It is fast, easy to use, and comfortable. There is no pain or discomfort when holding it. It cuts the can cleanly and is just plain easier to use than electric can openers. We are sticking with the OXO can opener and not going back to electric openers. I highly recommend this can opener, ditch your electric can opener and make things easier on yourself!
The Best Can Opener Value on the Market September 16, 2003

As a former Chef I am picky about using only quality kitchen utensils, and I heartily endorse this can opener. Most manual can openers have a tendency to hang up or run off the lip of the can, but not this beauty. It stays on the lid without ever jumping off and has incredible ease of operation due to it's large mechanical advantage and handle construction. This may look like a cheap can opener from the local retailer, but it's ease of use, durability, and the fact that it is dishwasher safe (many aren't) makes this the best value for the can opener dollar imaginable.

I'm a totally disabled Veteran. My wife is disabled also with a severe upper back and neck problem that affects her hands. She doesn't have much strength in her hands. This can opener is so easy for both of us to use! I believe it's because this product is very well made. It does a great job. I'm ordering another one. It makes a good gift also.

We've had this can opener for several years now. I still have one of our old, el cheapo can openers which I sometimes use if I can't find the OXO. The OXO is so much easier to use - it tracks the can rim without jumping off, it cuts the metal easily, knob is easy to turn. Also, I don't always get to drying my washing up quickly, but this can opener shows no signs of rust spots.
Better Than an Electric Opener (All OXO products are GREAT) March 19, 2001

Let me get this out of the way - I love OXO products. A great design, superb functionality and a low cost are a terrific combination. My kitchen is filled with them and they are typically all great. I am a big fan of function over form, but OXO manages to mix the two quite well.As to the Can Opener - It is almost perfect. It will open any sized can quickly and easily. The grips are great, the gears and handle provide maximum results for minimum effort. It is always a good idea to have a manual can opener around, even if your primary opener is electric. I have put my electric opener away and use the OXO exclusively. It is just easier to use! If you need kitchen accessories - look at OXO first. Start with the can opener to get an idea of what OXO products are - high quality, inexpensive, great design and easy to use. After you use OXO grips, your other kitchen accessories will seem obsolete.
