First, I used this thing once. That's it, just one use and torque was too much from my weak hand. It broke. Metal on plastic construction is a huge no, no. So it sat on my counter top for a month just slapping me in the face with its awfulness. I was able to get other cans open in the interim the old fashion way (hammer). My cat has now been missing for a month, it may very well be due to the sadness she sensed off myself over month pondering as to why such a terrible products are made, the environmental impact on goods that should only be purchased once in a lifetime. I can see why the Russians think Americans are inferior. Kitchen Aide, you have lost a customer for life (I only planned on purchasing from you once, you know the whole 1 time purchase thing, but now I can't recommend you to any family that has cats, for obvious reasoning)."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'This can opener is unbelievably bad. I would have thought KitchenAid name would not put their name on anything that was this poor quality, but I would have been wrong. This can opener rusted after its first use. I opened a can with it and then hand washed it and set it on a drying rack! It was also so difficult to get it to actually latch onto the can to open it! Finally, within 3 weeks of light use, it completely stopped working. I have no idea how a can opener can completely stop working in that amount of time. This can opener is garbage. Do not buy this, please.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Knob sheared off after 10th use. Poor quality. Very disappointing! I had to use a set of vice grips to open cans. I ordered the Amazon Basics brand and it can’t get here fast enough. My wife is having a fit because this KitchenAid one is junk and because we have to use Vice grips on a can opener until the new one gets here—her parents are visiting and it looks bad and her dad (my father-in-law) is complaining relentlessly about this stupid can opener. Merry Christmas...'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I prefer manual can openers because they take up less space and its one less appliance. However, this one simply doesn\'t cut it, so to speak. Like so many other can openers, it doesn\'t cut all the way around the lid of the can. You are usually left with two spots it will not cut, forcing you to pry open the can with something and risk cutting your hand. If I wanted to pry the can open, I wouldn\'t have bothered to buy a can opener. And, if you are going to call it a "can opener" it should actually OPEN the can. Now I have to buy another one and hope it works better. This was a total waste of money.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "I have had good experiences with Kitchen Aid can openers in the past so when we needed a new one, I didn't bother looking beyond Kitchen Aid. This version is more streamlined/compact than what we previously had, but it definitely sacrifices function for style. By April (maybe 6 months after purchase) the can opener was totally un-usable. The wedge had somehow collapsed in and it became impossible to open a can. There was no damage to the opener- apparently it got that way through use which is crazy because we didn't have it for that long and don't use a lot of canned items. Keep looking - this one will break your heart!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': ' I had a can opener for MANY years, but it was time to buy another one. So we bought one, but it was "chincy" and cheap feeling. We bought this one from Kitchen Aid and we LOVE IT. It\'s sturdy, feels durable and feels comfortable.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "My second job is running a dachshund rescue from my home. Do u have any idea how many cans I open? I've killed more more cheapo can openers than Jaws did people. This can opener is unstoppable. I've had it for over a year with no problems. I ordered another one so I would not have to keep stealing the one from the kitchen! Thank you kitchenaid for making a REAL can opener that lasts!!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Terrible product Kitchen Aid. Not even four months old and it is already broken. Kitchen Aid, f you see this, please send me a new one.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "Don't waste your money on this can opener. I purchased this can opener to replace a can opener that broke after 4 months. This one looked better built. It wasn't, it broke in less than a week. Take a $20 bill out of your pocket and hold it down in the trash with this worthless garbage."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "We had another brand can opener that seemed to be smushing things rather than cutting cans open. I expect it was just old and dull. This one cuts through the cans without leaving the tag end attached, at least now while it's new and sharp. It is slightly more difficult to turn the lever than the other brand, but not so much we can't get it done. We use a can opener every day for our cat's wet food and less frequently for canned human foods. We'll see how this one does over the long haul. When I held the old opener up to the new one to see if there was any noticeable design difference, it appeared to me that the cutting wheel and other bits were all identical in size and overall design, only the lever and the handles were different. So I am chalking up performance differences to the age and condition of the cutting blade."}]
