"No Hands" One Touch Can Opener
Juniper Foo | Jun 13, 2006
At last, a cordless handsfree can opener! Hong Kong-based Daka has designed what it claims is the world's first such can opener, aimed at the elderly and those stricken by carpel tunnel or athrithis. That's not going to stop the rest of us from getting one since anything that reduces household drudgery is to be celebrated. Operating it is almost mindless. Just place the device on top of a can, hit the One Touch button, and ta-dum. This'll whirl around the can and shut off once mission is accomplished, leaving behind a butt smooth edge. And being battery-operated and cordless, there's no stopping you from pocketing it along to BBQs and campouts.

I bought three of these can openers and I could not get a single can opened using them. I bought three , one for my wife and the other two for my daughters as gifts. I tried fresh batteries and all I could get the thing to do was puncture the can and then it would stop, if I then wiggled and giggled the can opener it would start and and stop, after five or ten minutes of this wiggling and giggling the can was finally opened. Certainly not like they showed it on TV. I thought the can open that I had selected might be defective but when I tried a second can opener I got the exact same result. I also tried several different cans, I did discover that if after the can is punctured and the motor stops that if I pushed on the motor reset button and held it down then the can lid would then be completely cut off. Of course in order to push and hold the reset button I had to hold the can sideways, this means that the liquid in the can runs all over the place. I am not very happy with the purchase that I made for this product. I am going to request a refund , I would prefer that the can opener worked to getting a refund. I would not recommend this product to anyone. Gzimmer@rochester.rr.com

I love this can opener when it works. I have had to change the batteries after opening 3 or 4 cans. I have probably only used it about 9 or 10 times but now it won't work at all. I have put fresh batteries in it and I don't even get a hum. I don't know if maybe I just got a lemon or what.

This is a really great can opener. My mother suffers from moderate arthritis and says it's the easiest can opener she's ever used. Plus, no more cuts from sharp can edges. This is a wonderful product!! One Touch Can Opener
