A: Thank you for your question. When using this SmoothTouch Can Opener hold the lever down until the can has completely finished at least one rotation. The motor will not automatically stop when the can is open.
Q: Do you have to hold the can while it is being opened?
A: This product grips the can while opening, but it is still good to hold the can.
Q: Does the sound change to a different pitch at the end of one rotation?
A: Thank you for your question. Once the can completes a full rotation, you will hear a change in the sound of the motor.
A: Thank you for your question. Allowing the can to complete only one full rotation will prevent metal slivers.
A: Thank you for your question. The difference between the two models is that model 76607 will feature scissors with purchase.
Q: Is the blade removable for cleaning?
A: Thank you for your question. No, this appliance will not feature a removeable cutting assembly.
Q: Is this opener the safety type were the lid will not cut your hand?
A: Thank you for your question. The Hamilton Beach® Smooth Touch™ Can Opener is designed so the blade cuts along the side and not into the top of the can. This minimizes the blades contact with food and prevents splashing or seeping out from the top since the can remains closed until you lift the lid. The result is a mess-free, smooth cut that allows you to remove the top without worrying about sharp edges along the lid.
Q: can this can opener open tall cans
A: Yes, it will open cans upto 6 inches tall, IE chunky soups. Just purchased 2 months ago, wished I'd bought it sooner, what a difference it make over a hand held opener.
