Hi everyone,
Ive just gone to open a can of beans and my can opener has stopped working... again :-( seem to have them a short while then they pack up.
Can anyone recommend a brilliant can opener that will last me a few years please?
thank you x

Ive tried several different kinds over the years, will get a couple of cheapy ones so at least i will have a spare, thanks for all replies x0 -
I have a magican and I wouldn't be without it. It's one of the standard ones, not the fancy models. Think it cost about £8 and I've had it for a decade. Works on small tomato puree tins and those jumbo extra thick cash and carry ones. Best bit? When you lift it up the chopped-off lid comes with it. No super sharp edges, no fishing the lid out of the can and the lid just gets rinsed and ejected into the recycling.0

I have a Brabantia one, I've had it for about 20 years, it's still going strong and it very comfortable to use.Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear0

We also have an OXO one, bought it from Fenwick. I think they have a guarantee with then, so keep the receipt, then just take it back if it does break. Had ours for over a year with no problems. xI use an OXO from Lakeland. It is very good.I must remember that "Money Saving" is not buying heavily discounted items that I do not need. :hello:0
