My hands are not a strong these days and I prefer the type of can opener that removes lid from top without sharp edges like the old ones. But these require a little work. I bought this electric one, opened it as soon as I got it, installed for batteries and tried it. I LOVE IT, and it's so easy to use. It does all the work. Now I want to buy this for a few people for Christmas, it's that good and quality is great, not flimsy. Read more

Update 12-23-25: Well, it's been over two years since I purchased my Kitchen Mama can opener. I'm still using it almost every day and it works as well today as the day I first opened the box. I love this thing. It has helped make it easier to continue making healthy home cooked meals for my husband and I and I am very grateful to Kitchen Mama for helping make that happen. Every senior out there should have one of these. Edit 9-22-23: I have had this can opener for almost 3 months now and have used it almost every day. It is still working perfectly. I had to come back and add a comment. I see some reviews saying they the can opener leaves sharp edges. I have NEVER had a sharp edge left by this opener. I just set the opener on top of the can, press the button, and the can opener does the rest. Original review: Let me start by saying I PROMISE to come back and edit this review if ANY problems develop with this can opener in the next year. I am in my late 70s, in a wheelchair, and dealing with several different forms of painful arthritis. I still cook for myself and my husband and try to do as much "from scratch" as I can. That means I open cans on a pretty regular basis. My new Kitchen Mama electric can opener arrived today. I think the next sentence says a LOT. I opened the box, removed the can opener, cleaned it with a food safe disinfecting wipe, installed 4 AA batteries, set a standard size can of chick peas on the counter, set the can opener down on top of the can, pressed the button, and the can open started rotating around the top of the can. THAT'S IT!!! I didn't have to fidget with positioning. I just sat it on top of the lid with the can opening part where I thought it should sit. The can opener does continue to rotate around the lid even after it has completely cut the lid BUT you do hear a difference in sound once the lid has been completely severed. I pressed the on/off button again and the can opener stopped. I removed the can opener and then lifted the lid off. No sharp edges, no muss, no fuss. I have only opened several different sized cans before writing this review which is why I promised to come back and report if any problems develop. This can opener is a life changer for me in the kitchen. I had gotten to the point where I had to get my husband to help me remove lids on cans because it was just too painful for me to do myself. This can opener is everything I hoped it would be and more. Now I just hope it continues to work as fantastically as it does right now. I LOVE THIS THING!!! My aging in place kitchen is just about complete. I have several reacher grabbers, 2 wonderful basket air fryers, a 6 quart Instant Pot, and the best can opener I could ever ask for. Now I just need to find the perfect affordable opener for lids on jars, and an easy to use lemon juicer. Read more

This is the strangest can opener I've ever used. It cuts the TOP off the can, not the inner lid. That takes a bit of getting used to in order to use it. After struggling with a few cans, I actually like it. The cut is cleaner and because it cuts off the top, there's no inner ridge left inside the can to keep me from scraping all can contents out. Buy it, I think you'll like it. Read more

This thing is a lifesaver! I have now given this can open as a gift to 2 friends. Traditional can openers are a nightmare, never work for long, make a huge mess and if you have even a touch of arthritis, forget it! Pros: This can opener is small enough to fit in my gadget drawer opens cans on the first go around doesn't spill anything Best part is you put it on, press the button and can walk away. Cons: It's a bit slow It's noisy Given the ease, compactness and relief for my hands, well worth it! Read more

The Kitchen Mama Auto Electric Can Opener has been an absolute lifesaver in my kitchen! It opens cans quickly, smoothly, and without any sharp edges. I love that it’s completely hands-free — just push the button and it does all the work for you. It’s lightweight, easy to hold, and perfect for anyone who wants a safer, more convenient way to open cans. Cleanup is simple, and it stores easily in a drawer. I use it almost daily now, and it’s one of those gadgets you don’t realize you need until you have it. Read more

Very nice opener. No physical effort needed. Opens cans cleanly without sharp edges. Would recommend this item. We're up in age and the unit takes the work out of opening can goods. Read more
