Does this can opener make one revolution and then stop?

No, this can opener makes a small click after one revolution. The can is then open, but it will revolve until you stop it.

no,it keeps on going but the good part is that there are no sharp edges. I am happy with it

No. After it goes around, the sound changes slightly. It keeps on going, though.

I have not had that problem....keep in mind it will only twist in one direction....good luck :)

Yes, and I love it. I usually place it on the can so that the "cutting edge" is just touching the can and press the big black button. When it has circled the can I press the button again and pick it up. Sometimes it continues to turn after removing it but it stops as soon as I press the button. It fits snuggly in a drawer just below my counter top and is easily accessable and out of sight.

The blade only turns when the top is locked in place (you don't have to worry about little fingers getting stuck). Hope this helps.

I haven't had that problem, but I don't generally go around the rim more than one time since one revolution is all you need to open the can.

yes you can,you just touch the button on top of the opener and hold it down until it locks into place. The opener will then go counterclock wise around the can and turn itself off when the can is opened.

on the BOTTOM of the unit there is a hole that the tool inserts into. manually turning will generally release any trapped debris and allow the unit to run. make sure its turned off when you use this.

yes it only ratchets in one direction and you do need to flip it to reverse direction. I actualy find this to be the best way because it is overall stronger. Remember to crack the nut before you use these tools as they can be overloaded.

Yes. If anything physically causes the motor to stop turning, it will automatically reverse direction.

It turns back and forth. It does not make complete revolutions. Remove the head and bush up on the bottom brush and you will see how far the top round brush turns back and forth.

I have the same problem sometimes it works sometimes it does not. I think its the can opener.

no, it doesn't retract; but once it finishes the last band the turntable stops - you can set a switch for this not to happen (which I've never done, so I assume it just keeps turning); this is a really nifty little unit - I am thrilled to have bought it

We had this happen when we turned the handle in the opposite direction it was supposed to be turned. It would still make motor noises, so we thought we were operating it correctly. It's much easier to crank when turned in the wrong direction than when turned the correct way, that's the only way I can remember which direction to crank it. I'm not sure if that's happening with your separator. My other guess would be that it isn't being cranked fast enough or long enough before letting the milk through. I hope that you can get it to work, good luck.

Yes, it oscillates. However, you can turn off that feature and direct each half toward the direction you chose.

I would make sure that nut fully engages/sits on the lid properly when you slide it on the can. Also the first time it was a little ruff to get going as using it without a clamp style handle and the fact that it splits the lid open was a little weird to get used to; but it works fine for me and no problems turning it after that first can open, love it. When you turn it clock wise the splitter latches to the lid then counter clockwise unlocks the can opener. hope this helps sort it out, it really is a great can opener and can just take some getting used to. If not you might have gotten one that has a turning problem hope that isn't the case, if it is I'm sure they will exchange it.

Yes it turns but i would not recomend this toy to anyone. I return my son's and got the money back. It's not worth the time or money. My son wasn't interested in it. Don't buy will be a headache and frustration.

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.
