EZ-DUZ-IT Deluxe Can Opener with Black Grips

I am not exaggerating when I say this is, without a doubt, the best can opener I've ever owned. The grips are a good size, the handle is a good comfortable size, the blade is sturdy and durable. It snaps right onto cans and just goes. It's even priced well. There's no reason not to get it.

i just got it literally 15 minutes ago my time and used it to open a can of peas, a can of cream of mushroom soup, a can of diced carrots and a 16 oz can of tuna...i'm making tuna ala king...it went through the cans like a hot knife through butter. the primary reason i decided to get this was that in the last 3 years, i just realized this, i've spent nearly a hundred dollars on just can openers. can you believe that??? nearly one hundred dollars on stupid can openers that some didn't even make it half way through a can of chicken noodle soup and others that just wore out over a couple of weeks to a couple of months...and NONE of them cost over $10 but every single one was made in the People's Republic of You Know Where. i got fed up with it and decided to "buy once, cry once" with this one by EZ-DUZ-IT. now to the INITIAL review... CONS; It is not "ergo-dynamic". which is just another marketing ploy to add a buck to the price. It is not compact. it's a full sized can opener, not a Swiss Army knife. It is not outfitted in florals, pastels or vibrant colors. put down the Martha Stewart's magazine and nobody gets hurt. PROS; It is really easy to use. like i said earlier, it went through four cans, three 12oz's and one 16oz, like a hot knife through butter. the grip was secure, the rotating handle was EXTREMELY easy to use and i do have the beginnings of arthritis in both hands along with cubital tunal syndrome in my left arm and peripheral neuropathy in both arms. It's not dainty. it's built like a tank and if anything in your kitchen should survive a house fire, earthquake, wild fire, nuke strike, asteroid impact or mostly peaceful protest it should be your can opener. It's "full constructed" as in, the handle "legs" go all the way down and don't just end in a 1/8th or 1/4th inch tab glued into a plastic handle. so this this ends my initial review. i'll be posting a 30 day, 90 day six month and 1 year follow up but as it stands right now, if you are in need of a truly decent quality can opener that will work and not give you the fits over a can of condensed milk then get this one. oh, here's a few FYI's... 1. even though the description says that you can was with warm soapy water, DON'T and NEVER put ANY manual can opener into a dish washer. the best thing to do is to carefully, so as to not injure yourself, wipe down the can opener's contact and cutting surfaces with a clean dry cloth or dish towel. don't use oil. this can cause gumming and interfere with positive contact and lock-up with the can and the can opener. 2. 99.999% of the gunk that gets onto and into your can opener comes from the can. simple solution is to just wipe the can's top with a clean cloth or napkin. if you think that you need to use soap and water or cleaning wipes or sprays on your cans of food, you need to find a new grocery store. 3. don't just throw your can opener into a drawer. remember that this is a CUTTING INSTRUMENT. your $300 chef knife is a cutting instrument, albeit designed to cut different things differently, but it's purpose is to cut. so make a dedicated space/place/spot for it. back when i was a child, there used to be kitchen drawer inserts and these had slots for knives, forks, tablespoons, teaspoons and one wide spot that was too short for knives and forks and too short for spoons. that was because it was the can opener's place. thanks for taking the time to read my review and i hope the information i gave helps.

When I was a kid growing up, we had a can opener just like this one and it was perfection! My mom still has it. I am 54. As an adult, I think I have gone through about 20 can openers. None of them felt like this one and of course the gears became stripped after a couple of years. Thank goodness I found this one and it too is perfection!! It's heavy duty, it glides effortlessly through the metal, there's no struggle whatsoever and it cleanly opens the cans without leaving tetanus shavings. I plan on purchasing another one soon because i don't ever want to be without a high quality can opener such as this!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!

OK...so yes...it looks basic...does not have a bulbous, cushy turn handle and for the most part looks just like any other crappy can opener that will fail like every single other can opener ever made available on the market...why cause basically thats all that exists right? We've tried them all and every time we buy one it ends up failing sooner or later and usually sooner than later and with absolutely no satisfaction during the term it actually is in service. Fact of the matter is they all operate for 'you know what'....But NO…not this time! If you are reading this review that means your life search for the very best can opener known to man has finally ended...right here and now! This things rocks balls, as hard as a can opener can rock!! From the very moment you begin using this device it oozes satisfaction. For starters its made rock solid......the action on the levering is short and sweet....and the turn handle is long and accurate. From the moment you place it on a can it just falls into place and snaps right down and through the top lid with ease and directness. As you turn the handle it cuts with precision and a smoothness that is unimaginable in any can opener ever to be made. To be honest this is like the holy grail of can openers. And mind you when I use the word 'smoothness' I mean it...i mean this thing is as smooth as silk. As you start to turn through the cut, it slices through the lid metal with total ease and efficiency creating an experience that is not only fast and satisfying but in fact elating! Within seconds, which seemingly puts all other attempts at efficiency by other can opener so far back in the list of considerations, your experience will be mind blowing and you will quickly ponder at how much time you have wasted in life getting through opening all those cans of the past! This is truly the Mac Daddy of all can openers. Every single household should come standard with one of these. It’s totally American and totally right! And for sure why wouldn't it be ...its made in America to begin with. All seriousness on hand...it is the absolute best can opener you'll ever buy! And honestly, if you don't feel that way once yo’ve had a chance to try it out then you probably shouldn't be messing with cans and should probably stick to microwave dinners and cracker jacks. Put those cans away before you hurt yourself and leave the hard work to the men and women who know and appreciate the right kind of kitchen tools we know, need and use for getting the job done right. Efficiency, sleekness, comfort, precision, repeatability and the essence of true professional experience...this can opener has it all...and IS the ALL when it comes to can opening. Now go and get yourself one and be done! Side Note: This is one of those products were if there was a 6th star this product would be getting it.
