An electric can opener is a welcome convenience in most home kitchens and is indispensable to cooks with arthritis or carpal tunnel syndrome. This easy-to-operate version from Cuisinart sports a contemporary brushed chrome finish, making it a more elegant-looking appliance than the electric can openers of yesteryear. At 7-1/2 inches from arm to base, this tool handles containers of many different sizes, from tuna fish tins to large cans of tomatoes. The powerful and sharp blade pierces and cuts lids, ensuring that cans open on the first try. The magnetic lid holder and guiding posts secure cans so they don't tip while the opener is running and aren't released prematurely. The arm is removable for thorough cleaning and the rest of the unit wipes clean easily. Cuisinart backs this can opener with a three-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde Designed to handle any size can, its heavy-duty body won't slip or slide. The detachable arm offers easy cleaning and the exterior housing wipes clean with a damp cloth. Complete with a power pierce blade.
