Will this can opener work on oval shaped cans, like sardines?

I've not had an opportunity for this kind of can...............I will recommend that if you order from Amazon................and not happy with it you can return it. As a point of information, contact OXO and ask them the same question. Good luck

Yes I believe it will. it cuts from the side of the can, not the top. It the best can opener I have EVER owned. It was recommended to me. I love it!!

I have had mine for about 10 years. Worked fine with odd shaped cans (ham, sardines, etc.). Now it seems, at least in my area, most of these cans are pull-top, but unless OXO has changed the design it should work as mine did back then. As an aside, mine still works perfectly.

I don't know for sure. I've only used it on cans of beans. But, I would certainly think so.

It takes about the same amount of pressure to turn the crank that is required to use a standard can opener.I have recently stopped using this can opener because I was having too much trouble getting it to open cans and it sometimes leaves razor sharp metal splinters. I do not recommend this particular Zyliss product.

yes....although you have to be able to hold the can that you are opening....i think there are better one-handedcan openers on the market....try checking the handicapped sites!!!!!!!!!!

No problem. I have found no limit on the size of cans it will open - large or small.

No -- it didn't open any cans. On the basis of the product we received I would not stock this item.

yes...size of can would not matter....after you complete a revolution of the opener you might not think the can opened...there is no distinct click...plus this opener cuts right under the lid, not thru it...so just work the lid a little after and you'll find it opens cans 'different'...but very nice

Yes, they do. I've used them on both large (with smaller lid openings) and small (with wider lid openings) dog food cans, and they work well with both sizes.

I have used it on all sizes of cans. It's very nice not to end up with sharp edges. I've found that it opens cans more smoothly than my standard opener, which sometimes requires me to go over sections of the lid a couple of times before it will detach.

I am not sure. If it is the same as other cans but just bigger around, then I say yes. You just have to turn more times. I love this can opener. It works great every time for me and no mess.

I dont think it will work. It is used mainly for 12 ounce cans. It can be used for 2 different types of 12 ounce cans, but not for anything smaller.

I wouldn't trust it not to bend even for ordinary cans. Mine bent on the very first use opening a Berkley & Jenson can of chicken. And it did not open the can. I had to resort to another opener. Perhaps that's alittle heavier than a can of Campbell's soup... but not much.

It works okay on smaller cans, but not on large tuna/chicken cans. The motor always sounds like it's barely going to make it.

Yes, with the One Touch Can Opener. My left hand is paralyzed so I only have my right hand to use. Olace the opener on top of the can, press the button, and the opener does the rest. It works great!

I believe it will, but have not had a chance to try it on the large cans yet. I don't believe there is any difference between the regular size and the large size, except for the volume.

Colleen, This opener works well on everything I have used it on. It will easily handle a 3 inch diameter lid. It works well on slick surfaces too. In the extremely unlikely event you have a VERY slick/smooth lid a rubber glove placed on the lid before you grip it with the opener works well.

The front of the can indicates it will work on grease, sorta the same thing, so I'd figure yes.
