Farberware Can Opener and Knife Sharpener, Bottle Opener with Removable Cutting Lever Black

I got the Farberware Can Opener Black, small kitchen appliance. 120V~60Hz~70W. I’ve actually never owned an electric can opener so I’m not sure how this one compares to other electric can openers, but so far I’m loving it over a hand-crank one! We had a couple different hand crank can openers over the years and they all had their issues. They would either repeatedly fall off the track or not cut all the way around the can. I finally got this one and the 1st can I tried to open with it was a big family size can of spaghetti sauce. I was nervous it wouldn’t be able to hold such a big heavy can, but once I got the magnet to catch it and the blade to pierce, it had no problem holding it in place and cutting the whole way around with ease. It still takes me a few seconds to get some of the cans I’ve tried secured. I wish there was a more clear way to secure the cans. Usually I just kind of hold the can under the magnet and move it around until the magnet catches and hope its secured enough not to fall off and usually it is, It just always makes me nervous. I’m sure I’ll get better at it the more I use it though. It's faster and easier than a hand-crank can opener and it leaves a nice clean edge. I wish I had switched a long time ago.

I am so happy I got this Farberware Electric Can Opener. I have used a hand crank that kills my wrist and hardly works, and also tried one of those side cutters that won't turn off after finishing the cut, so yes, I am so happy I got this. I immediately read the directions that came with it and plugged it in. I could not wait to sharpen all my knives which have seen better cutting days (actually, dull knives are dangerous). So I was able to sharpen about 8 of my knives that were not serrated edged and they came out marvelously. I tested them on a tomato that I had a hard time cutting before the sharpening. They sliced through that tomato like butter. Then I opened a can of tuna which is small, and the magnet on the lid holder did a fine job of cutting without stalling or dropping the can. Then on to some shrimp and finally the tall tomato sauce can. There was no problem at all handling the tall/heavier can, no dropping of the can or mess to clean up! The magnet/cutting edge comes off easy for cleaning. I am glad I came back into this century and would recommend this can opener to anyone who needs a smooth performing electric can opener!
