The One Touch Automatic Can Opener

This "as seen on TV" can opener is supposed to open can automatically and shut off. It does open some cans, but refuses to open others, at least in my experience.

I have been using one for about 5 years and I change the Batteries about once a year. The older it gets the better it works. I like mine and will buy another one.

I love mine. I've had it for close to 20 years. Looks like you got a cheaper one, a knock-off. The one by Grip Mate with the N on the button is the best one. It takes a while, but not that long. It does eat batteries. Mine cuts the lid uniformly, so no jagged edges.

I am pet sitting this week-end at someone's house, and couldn't find a can opener to open a can of dog food. I looked through all of the drawers then finally found this thing. What the hey? I honestly couldn't figure out how to use it! I even changed the batteries figuring that was the problem. That's when I decided to see if someone made a you tube video on this product. Thanks for the great 6:00 AM chuckle. Yes, the dogs got to eat. No, I'm never going to buy one of these things, but I can see how it could come in handy for another person.

Thank you very much for your review.
I almost bought this can opener.
You just saved me from a never ending compliant :)

It hesitated because the magnet midway on the underside needs to sense the metal. The first can had a price tag interfering with the magnet.

I like this but you can't open the part that you put the batteries in

"What was that, 3 minutes to open a can?"

Be very careful to check the can before you pour the contents of the can into a pot or bowl.! Great can opener but I have been finding metal shavings in my food and metal fibers sticking to cut side of can! I did notify the company on 2/17/2106.

I bought one of these and it has not been able to open anything as yet. Useless. Back to the hand held opener for me.

I just got one of these, I had to turn the can over and it worked like magic.I think sometimes the rim/top of the can is just too thick for grip.

BEWARE ! This can opener has a mode of failure that is very hard to figure out.
There is a small stainless steel lever that presses against the can allowing the opener motor to start until the timing gears have gone through a complete cycle then the motor is turned off. This timing cycle is set for larger circumference cans. That is why this can opener keeps running when used on a smaller can.
The problem with my can opener is that little stainless steel switch lever fell off making it so the motor would never start. This mode of failure could be prevented if their engineers would have only used a different switch lever design that was bent in a dog leg pattern on the unhinged end & hooked under the plastic body of the battery cover.
Gonna send this one back !! 🤬🤬

That phrase"As seen on TV' is a warning sign that the product is a POS!

[terryglenweaver]

I have one of these and I hate it. I have weak hands and getting to the batteries is very difficult. And those batteries seem to go out when I need it most.

I have to hold the button down on mine. For some reason it doesn't work on its own anymore. In fact, it stopped after the second use. 😢

[MrCanadave]

Some people here must be using crappy batteries. Mine opened countless cans since I can't remember. The problem I have now is that I have a hell of a problem getting the lid off the opener after it's detached.

The one in the uk is amazing no exaggeration

Dog food cannot be guaranteed to be processed under the same hygienic conditions that human food is processed.

[jrbeam]

I'm thinking about throwing it as far as I can, lol

Mine works, but it refuses to "automatically stop" I have to try & yank the can top off of the one touch.
