Power Opener Extra Tall Can Opener

After being frustrated with our old can opener not opening cans easily, we decided to buy a new one. We bought the Proctor Silex can opener, and have been very pleased with how easy it opens up most cans on the first attempt (our old can opener usually took 3-5 tries to get it to start cutting). One thing I don't like about this can opener is that the cutting attachment comes off too easily. It pops off almost every time I finish cutting open a can. It is easy to put back into its slot, but it is frustrating how easy it is to get it off. I really wish they would redesign how the cutting attachement locks into place, as if that was fixed, this would be a great can opener.

Used the product for about a month. I was deceived by the add thinking I was getting a knife sharpener with a electric grinding wheel like I had growing up on the back of the can opener. The one on this can opener is just a slide though, and doesn't work well. The unit is light weight and falls over easily with big cans. The blade and lid carrier falls off quite a bit. I didn't send it back because it was cheap and not worth the trouble. If your looking for a can opener and an electric knife sharpener keep looking, don't buy this one.

But it's kinda flimsy and the parts tend to fall off during operation. Not a very solid design at all but I guess you get what you pay for.
