Proctor Silex 75400 PowerOpener Under-The-Cabinet Can Opener , White

Bought this while trying to find an under-counter can openener that would tolerate overhangs. As other people have noted, the arm you lift up to insert the can comes off WAY too easily - they should have made it to where you have to rotate it counterclockwise another 90 degrees or so before it can be removed. Also, after just a few months' use it does not open cans anymore, even while holding the can to it and helping it rotate the can. This is a horrible product and I would definitely not buy again. Wish another manufacturer made one that can fit under a lipped cabinet...

I ordered this can opener to replace an existing Black & Decker I had for over 15 years. I chose this one because of the price and it would work under my cabinets like my old one. When I got the opener, I was disappointed when using it, because the swing arm would routinely come undone (as if I were taking it off for cleaning) whenever I put the can up to be opened. I figured this a minor inconvenience and tolerated it because of the cheap price.

Now, I cannot open a can. I make sure the arm is locked in place, and the motor runs, but I cannot get the blade to pierce the can. I have asked neighbors and friends to try, and nothing works. Unfortunately, I am past the return date for Amazon, and now have to deal with the company and warranty.

I would not recommend this product to a anyone, since I have had problems with it from the beginning (because of the design), and now, after only 2 months, it is useless. Don't buy this product, spend a bit more for...Read more

Difficult to get started. Locks up after clamp-down with inadequate motor buzzing. You must remove can or burn up motor. Locking/clamp-down arm keeps falling off if you lift it up too high. I threw it out and ordered another brand.
