I've gotten about three can openers in the last year and they all broke. I just want to know if this one actually lasts?

Yes! This is a very well built and sturdy can opener, which will probably outlast me ;) and it is almost effortless to use. For me it was well worth investing in. Buy one you'll be glad you did.

I have not had this one long but it works great and is very well made of good quality materials.

This one seems very sturdy. I have only had it a month or so,which is not a long time, but I have used it a lot and it does seem to function very well. I recommend that you give it a try. I think you'll be happy with it.

I bought my can in 2011, and it stopped working (motor died?) about a month ago. I've reached out to Amazon and the manufacturer, with no response/support. I wouldn't recommend it.

my opener lasted for 3 days and quit...my best advice is to buy a manual opener like the rabbit and throw away that one i did (0;

our first experience with this can opener was when we purchased if for a friend who had a stroke, and had use of only one hand. she handles it well and loves it. we have had them fo a while and this one is the second. the other one lasted about 8-9 years. you do have to let it run the cycle, it will auto release and lift the lid.

Small failure after almost 3 years. I have had one almost 3 years, and it's been through one move about 2 years ago. The little handle just broke - small piece of plastic broke off, but I can still pull it out if I'm careful. A bit stained like others have indicated.

The One Touch can opener is the worst can opener, I've ever owned, it was terribly noisy+ did not work at all, it would start then run a tiny bit.Impossible to open a can with, it was just plain worthless!! Needless to say, it ended up in the trash.

After 2 years the boom hinge broke on mine and I had it also happen on a replacement after some time. I bought a package of 5 replacement booms for $20 and always keep a spare available. So far I have only needed to use one.

SO far I haven't had any problems with this can opener at all. I had to make the green bean and mushroom soup casserole for Thanksgiving ...enough to feed 25 adults and I had to open up what seemed to be a never ending number of cans! This can opener helped me breeze thru that task easily and efficiently. I highly recommend this can opener and I think you should donate your old traditional one and buy this new and very much improved tool. I hope this helps. Happy Holidays.

I bought one and it didn't work for me. It was always slipping off the can. I returned it and did not reorder another. Although it is a nice looking can opener. I guess if it doesn't work, return it!!

I purchased this exact model, in my local store, when it first came out years ago. Yes, it is still working, just like new. My wife and I use ours on a daily basis. We have had no trouble with neither shards of metal nor shreds of paper like other reviewers have complained, and the cord continues to retract and portract easily. You really cannot use the lid to push in and strain tuna, but we would not want to do that any (YUCK!), we just use a can strainer made for that specific purpose. We've used and had been through a lot of can openers and this particular one is by far the best we have used to date. Sorry about the rambling on but I wanted to share our particular experience.

Yes, actually. I had mine for 2 years but I would let it slam shut when I was done talking and it eventually broke. I liked the quality of the sound so much that I bought another and now I gently close it when finished talking. Sounds like yours may have broken as well? I think they will last a very long time as long as I take care when closing the little arm.

I believe my last one lasted about 3 years. The first two lasted about 2 years each. I've been lucky.

yes if the thing does not break. i bought it and used it once and it broke it would not let go of the can. i threw away the opener and the can attached to it

In my experience all can openers last much longer if they are washed by hand but since this is all stainless steel construction you probably can use the dishwasher.

You must have the wron party.....I only purchased my can opener about 6 weeks ago.

Absolutely. I purchased this item about a month ago, and I am thrilled with it! Believe me, I do have a life, and electric can openers do not make my day, but this opener is the quietest and easiest to use of all the openers I have bought. Hope this helps. I am sure you'll be very pleased with your purchase.
