Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Krups 404-70 Open Master Can Opener
Customer Review: I'm a little confused
Summary: 5 Stars
I decided to read the reviews on the Krups Open Master can opener, just out of curiosity. I'm on my second one, and I've had it for longer than the oldest review on Amazon. It's my second one, bought sometime back in the mid-90's. The first one I owned quit working properly because I broke it, due to carelessness on my part. Even when it didn't work properly, it never left "shavings" in or around the can, and it never "chewed up" the can. The only thing I can think of that might be causing the problems people are writing about is where the unit is made. Mine was made in Mexico. If these newer ones are made in China, perhaps that's the problem.
I purchased one for my son, essentially because he asked for one as a Christmas present after he moved away from home in 1998. The only complaint he has is that his didn't come with the nifty wall holder. If he has any other complaints, I haven't heard them.
In all, I'm like a lot of the people here, I feel that it's the finest can opener made, and whole-heartedly give it my approval.
Description of Krups 404-70 Open Master Can Opener
Opening a can of tuna fish shouldn't be a task approached with fear and trepidation. Unlike most devices, this patented bladeless design eliminates sharp edges and metal shavings, making opening a can a far safer, cleaner procedure. The touch control button allows you to operate the opener with one hand and with all that maneuverability oddly sized or shaped cans present no problem. Additionally this opener cuts the can open from the side as opposed to from the top, keeping both the cutting blade and metal shavings out of the food within the can, as well as allowing you to replace the metal lid, should you so desire.The Krups Open Master can opener answers the prayers of those cooks who are sick of struggling with manual can openers. This can opener has a patented bladeless design that uncrimps can lids, rather than cutting them out, so it doesn't leave sharp edges to cut fingers. Also, because the opener doesn't cut into the lid of the can, the opener's blades won't get gummed up and contaminated with old food that has stuck to the cutting edge. The large handle is easy to grip, and the on-off button has raised bumps so that your thumb won't slip. --Julija Gelazis
