Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Progressive International 4 In 1 Can Opener
Customer Review: Perfect Manual Can Opener - So Easy to Use
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband likes to buy all kinds of kitchen gadgets. I think he thinks he's an Iron Chef! He is a great cook, but our drawers and pantry are full of utensils we rarely use anymore.
We've had several can openers including the one that opens the can lids without leaving a sharp edge...what a struggle. It was great with leaving non-sharp edges but a pain to use. We've also had an expensive can opener that we used for many years and was replaced with this purchase. Our previous can opener was similar in construction to this one, in that the cutting edge is on the inside lip of the can and the outer edge grips the outside of the can. I would often struggle, not only to get the old can opener to attach correctly on both sides, but invariably during my manual turning, the pressure would be inconsistent and the can would skip cutting part of the lid. It would take several tries of going back and forth in various places to finally get the lid off.
I did not realize how bad it actually was until I bought this model at a Home Goods store. I knew nothing about the brand, but liked the way it looked with the bigger handle for turning and it had the separate end for opening soda or beer bottles.
This Progressive can opener is wonderful. I have never had one that was so easy to use. You really don't know how easy something can and should be until you purchase something that actually works well. I looked at the mechanism after my first use and thought, what is so different about this one that makes it easier to use? I really can't say. It does look like the cutting edge and the holding edge are angled slightly differently than my old can openers. It is easy to use and does not require a lot of hand strength. This may be due to the bigger turning handle than I've seen on most can openers and the shape of the handle, but the cutting of the can lid is smooth and mechanism seems to glide through its' task.
I can't believe I am gushing about a can opener, but it is the easiest kitchen utensil we now own. I've had it for about 6 months now and it still works as good as new, even with the frequent cycles through the dishwasher. I would definitely recommend it and have ordered one for my mother. Ummmm, now I need to find the perfect potato peeler....
