Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the SmoothTouch Electric Can Opener for its ease of use and reliable performance. Many appreciate the added safety feature of smooth edges, along with its appealing design and quiet operation. While overwhelmingly positive, some customers have pointed out concerns regarding the cord length, though many negate the sharp edge and metal shaving concerns.

    Purchased in April 2021. This thing has been acting up with the last few uses. Today... I had to resort to the manual opener; not that a hand opener is an awful thing, but when you have poor hand strength due to arthritis, the manual can opener can be really tough to use. It's not like I've overused this, opening dozens of cans per day. This thing has MAYBE opened 2 dozen cans since April 2021, and that's a stretch. This purchase was an absolute waste of money.

    The best thing is this clan opener is it cuts around the outside edge. This allows you to put the top lid back on..

    Perhaps I got a defective one, but this thing doesn't open cans well at all. Tried several soup cans, and only one of them actually worked. Another left metal shavings on the lid. The cans would slip out of the opener's grip. Returning this.

    Hamilton Beach Electric Can Opener

    Needed an easy to use can opener after breaking my wrist (dominant hand) and this was perfect! Easy to use, no sharp edges on lids or can. Looks great and takes up little space on my counter. Like the fact that Hamilton Beach is a well known brand name and it lives up to its reputation. Reasonable price, too.

    At first I was reluctant to purchase this type of opener, but I have a lot of faith in Hamilton Beach products. So, I decided to order it and give it a try. I am so glad I made the purchase. It's well worth the money. It cuts so smooth, and it's very quiet. I also like the fact that you can place the lid back in the can for any unused portion. I'm sure you won't have any regrets if you decide to purchase this product. And they can ship it to your home via UPS, the best shipper in the business...

    Excellent can opener. Bought one for my mom so she wouldn’t cut herself on an old can opener. She has arthritis and is able to use it with ease. I ended buying a second one for myself. The magnet on it is very strong as it can hold up and open a huge can easily. So glad I purchased. I bought these can openers about 6 years ago and still working perfectly.
