Zyliss Can Opener I Can Opener

Pros: No nonsense, compact, light weight, white colored, mess reducing lock-on can opener.
Cons: Cons? None really! Just CANS.

Every kitchen needs a can opener. Every kitchen should have a manual can opener in the event of a power outage. This is one of the nicest can openers on the market. Yes you can spend less on a can opener than on this model but then you will get less ...

Pros: Works well for six months.
Cons: Works poorly after six months.

The first six months it opened cans the traditional way: cutting down into the lid. Then it started to skip, and after a year it can't open at all. Now it only works by cutting into the outer side of the can, but just on some cans, and barely so. Parts of the can opener are loosening up and the tension isn't there anymore.
