Amazon.com Review:
Kuhn Rikon's Safety Lid Lifter is the perfect 7-inch kitchen tool for anyone tired of dodging the jagged edges of cans and lids. Unlike conventional openers, the Safety LidLifter cuts into a can below the rim of the lid, so there are no sharp edges, the blade never touches the food, and the final turn of the crank doesn't dip or drop the lid into your tomato purée. The turning mechanism works smoothly for both right- and left-handers, and the sturdy knob sports no-slip ridges. Best of all, the lifting clamp means you never have to touch a lid. --Emily Bedard

Rating : - Throw out all of your old gadgets...
I have owned this Kuhn Rikon can opener for several years. When I bought mine, only white was available. It is now available in a variety of colors to match your kitchen decor. It is the best can opener I have ever used. I threw out all of the others I had, and use only this one on any cans, large-to-small. You only have to get used to the fact that it does not work on the side of the can; it works from the top of the can.
I was so impressed with this opener that I have purchased Kuhn Rikon's pepper grinder, dual cruet, potato peelers and both piranah peelers. They all work great! Today's purchases were gifts for a family member.
These are well engineered, well made, moderately priced kitchen gadgets. I love Kuhn Rikon's whole line.
