Title: Updating (and downgrading) my original review...
Product review: Bought this because of the ease of use, and at first it was worth the money. It really did open cans easily--comparing it with the OXO brand manual can opener--but the cutter wheel is no easier to clean than any other opener. (Best bet for cleaning the cutter wheel is an old tooth brush sprayed with a non-toxic cleaner such as Simple Green. Rinse the brush, run over the wheel again, and the wheel is reasonably clean.)Now, almost a year later, this Made-in-China can opener no longer works reliably. On many cans, it unpredictably cuts for just an inch or two and then circles round the top, refusing to cut at all. For that reason, I downgrade my rating to one star. This has had the shortest life (in terms of reliable use) of any can opener I've owned.
