Definitely worth buying

I bought this to replace a Culinare one touch that had stopped rotating on tins due to the guide wheel wearing down after not much use. I was a bit dubious about this being "hands free" but it is. Once you locate your can between the guide wheel and a locating pin, the opener holds the can. One press down on the cutting lever and the opener rotates the tin and, once the cutter has completed a full circle it pops back up and stops the motor.You can then lift the lever with the magnet that holds the cut off tin lid, and remove the tin. So simple to use. It is a bit noisier than I would have liked but that's no biggie. It will cut very small tins (I buy those very small tins of pilchards and it holds and cuts them fine), standard baked beans size tins, and larger tins like the ones you get new potatoes in.
I can't see me ever needing the bottle opener and I tried the knife sharpener but can't say I noticed much difference in the "sharpness", hence four stars, not five.
The power cable is quite short but long enough for where I will be using it.
I would definitely recommend this tin opener.

Swan electric can opener

After using it a few times I have to say it's not as good as my last one I had for a 7 years a different make. It's to fiddly to work to get it to start cutting tin open and 2 tins it wouldn't open due to thicker tins. I'm sorry I wouldn't buy another or recommend to others.Read full review

Great gadget

I did my homework and by far this came up best in the price range.
I wasn’t disappointed.
Anyone with hand mobility difficulties due to arthritis etc this is just the job ....another brand I purchased previously to help me was rubbish hence why I did the homework and got to this one ....I didn’t want to waste more money!Read full review

Looks nice

Bit fiddly to locate can in position,if done wrong,high risk of horrible crunching noise and perhaps damage to opener it’s very easy to do by accident!Quieter than my last one,thought sharpener was electric but isn’t! Pricey for what it is TBHRead full review

Light weight with great features.

It is so easy to operate. It has taken the pain opening the can with a traditional can opener.

Efficient stylish product

Bought this as I broke my wrist. It's quite fiddly to position the can so I couldn't use it one handed. However, it does open cans efficiently once you get the hang of it. It's well made and looks smart.Read full review

Works with ease

It’s brilliant. I had previously bought a battery type which was completely useless. What a wonderful surprise I got when this worked with ease. It’s good looking to so I have no problems with it being on show on my work surface.Read full review

Great features and lightweight.

Good product, does what it says but unstable. Have to be careful while using as it does not stick on table and can fall easily while using.

Very good wih the 3 functions.

Excellent product. Disappointed that was not wall fixable & was unable to spot a wall mounted one that looked AOK
Over 15 years have had approx. 10 electric can openers.
My best one was a wall mounted Tefal which lasted approx. 5 years. I had 2 no, one for me & one for the cat.Read full review
