Product Description
Product Features Opens cans of any size safely and easily Patented Lid Gripper for no-touch lid removal Break-resistant white plastic with tempered steel cutting blades Hand wash Made in China Amazon.com Review Kuhn Rikon's Safety Lid Lifter is the perfect 7-inch kitchen tool for anyone tired of dodging the jagged edges of cans and lids. Unlike conventional openers, the Safety LidLifter cuts into a can below the rim of the lid, so there are no sharp edges, the blade never touches the food, and the final turn of the crank doesn't dip or drop the lid into your tomato purée. The turning mechanism works smoothly for both right- and left-handers, and the sturdy knob sports no-slip ridges. Best of all, the lifting clamp means you never have to touch a lid. --Emily Bedard Product Description Opening cans can be dangerous when you're left with sharp edges on the can and the lid. With the Safety Lid Lifter Can Opener, you'll eliminate these potential kitchen hazards by removing the lid completely without ever having to touch it. The cutter removes the top portion of the lid just below the rim of the can, and an exclusive lid gripper lifts the lid off completely.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why I Love This Can Opener, December 2, 2005

This review is from: Kuhn Rikon Safety Lid Lifter Can Opener (Kitchen)
We own the slightly more expensive version of this can opener; at the time we purchased it, this was the only model available.

My wife and I find this to be the best can opener we have ever used; we even use it to open cans that have lift top lids (such as Del Monte canned sliced peaches). Why this can opener is so good is because of how it works and the quality of the product. It is made like a Swiss watch; there is no slop in the movement.

It is different than a traditional can opener which you place along the side of the can top and it cuts off the top. This can opener you place on top of the can and it separates the top of the can from the can cylinder. Contrary to the language used in the Amazon review, the can opener does not depend on cutting. The Kuhn Rikon Safety Lid Lifter depends on breaking the seal between the lid and the can.

The knob that you turn rotates a knurled wheel. When pinched on a can, it is forced into contact with...Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing--once you figure it out, May 26, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Kuhn Rikon Safety Lid Lifter Can Opener (Kitchen)
At first, after I bought this gadget, I could not figure out how it worked! I had to ask around to see if anyone was familiar enough with it to tell me how to operate it. Then I got the tip: rest the entire bottom of the lid lifter on top of the lid rather than approaching it from the side as you would with a conventional manual can opener. The lid lifter really does remove the entire lid without leaving any jagged edges like a regular can opener does. This is a great safety item if you have a toddler in the house who has to touch everything!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great can opener, but not so Break-resistant white plastic, October 19, 2006
This review is from: Kuhn Rikon Safety Lid Lifter Can Opener (Kitchen)
This is a great can opener, but after using it for 5+ years the plasic has begun to crack in places and a piece of the plastic has chipped off on the side by the metal. It says here in the product features that it has Break-resistant white plastic. I hardly think so. Also since it is white plastic it tends to discolor and yellow easily. Don't leave it too close to something hot...I learned this the hard way...the handle melted a bit. If I were in the market for a replacement (which I might be very soon if it cracks any more) I would probably buy the Kuhn Rikon Safety Lid Lifter DELUXE Can Opener because it doesn't have white plastic, it has stainless steel and a black turning knob.
