Neaty Can Opener (Black)

bought this 3 years ago. no rust, still works like new. the rubber grips tend to fall off after maybe a couple years of use, but its not a big issue.a tip; its a right handed model. so, have the can on the left hand, and the can opener with your right hand. clamp down on it so that it makes the hole.THEN, switch hands so your left hand is on the can opener handle, while you turn the knob with your right hand.

seems can openers are disposable these days, I have bought way too many over the last year or so. They all seem to work well in the beginning but then lose the ability to open a can within a month. And it seems the cost is not a factor as I have spent lots of money and time looking for a good manual can opener.With this can opener I may have found my nirvana, made in USA and a nice comfortable design. Locks onto the can cleanly and the handle is easy to turn. The automatic spring adjustment of the cutter works smoothly every time. I like this opener so much I bought one for mom.

I am extremely disappointed in this product. It is nothing more than an EZ-DUZ-IT can opener (that is also Made in USA) with a different grip. It says "EZ-DUZ-IT" on the can opener!We have not used it yet, but I will say the cutter makes contact with the other gear wheel and our first EZ-DUZ-IT does not. Our other EZ-DUZ-IT is horrible at opening cans. It leaves two distinct places on each can that are not cut....every can, every time.We will see how the "Neaty" version does. For now, I'm ticked off that I ordered something that was simply re-packaged for nearly twice the price. I know there's reviews on the EZ-DUZ-IT that describe our problem as well. Their Quality Control is lacking. Maybe this one is better, but at twice the price? What is Neaty doing? QC'ing the ones they sell and 'fixing' them??

Finally! I bought several different can openers simultaneously from Amazon hoping to fine ONE, just ONE, good one. They were all five star can openers, supposedly, and they were all horrible! I had one's handle literally fall off while lifting it out of the shipping box, right before my family's eyes! This is the only one I did not send back and it is still working about 4 months later with daily use. I know 4 months is hardly anything but with the luck I've been having with these stupid things, 4 months is knock on wood good! If it poops out I'm coming right back here and am going to rip it a new one!! I'm sick of chinese junk. So far so good on this one..

This is a clone of the old Swing-Away that's no longer available. This company makes more than one can opener so look closely at the models. See pictures for comparison to old Swing-Away. As a bonus it's Made in USA!

Made in USA which is great. The design isn't very comfortable though.

Excellent!I've asked neighbors, "You got any cans needing opening?" I've even begun to open cans of things I don't intend to eat, just for the joy of it. Next stop? I'm headed for the supermarket, where there are a whole lot of shelves filled with a whole lot of cans that need opening! Send me bail!Excellent!

Bought it to replace a KitchenAide can opener. My first impression wa that it wasn't as high quality--the handles have a lot more play. I was wrong! It works much better--the difference is night and day.
