Can opener recommendations please.

Another recommendation for OXO. Open fully. Large soft grip handles and large turning knob . Very sharp.

whoops thank you lantana recommenders

I have been looking for a good can opener for some time, had to get rid of my non- functioning and expensive kuhn rikon, initially from qvc and the older style. I have settled on lantana, thank you welbeck. 83% reviews on amazon and £11.95. The reviews did it and I have just ordered

tesco have a good manual one, or JML are a good company.
got one that works by battery from john lewis; works ok but expensive.
i find lakeland charge a lot for items that are available elsewhere cheaper.

I have an electric one it is so easy to use.

I second the lantana 2 in 1. Simple to operate and lid lifts off easily with no jagged edges

I also have a Kuhn Rikon opener but think different to the one mentioned above. It great and has loads of gadgets on it too

I bought a battery operated one from Lakeland which I'm pleased with

We've given up. No tin opener of any seems to work efficiently, or not for long. So we try to buy tins with ring pulls - and we have a gadget for opening those which works really well.

I find it very good, Shysal but I couldn't get it to fix onto the can at first. You have to put it on right for it to grip - once you find the way you are OK.

Elegran, I hadn't heard of the ratchet type, which looks good. I have therefore ordered a black one.
Thanks to all for your responses.

I have a JML battery operated can opener. It opens cans with a ring pull too. I sometimes have difficulty trying to open those.

Pushing, not puching.

I have a Kuhn ratchet canopener, which works by puching a lever back and forth, not turning a handle. It it much easier on the hands and it cuts without leaving a sharp edge. To take the cut lid off the can, it has a sort of tweezers on the side of the opener to grip the lid. Plus it has a hook to put into a ringpull to remove that.

It looks as though it is being replaced by a fancier (dearer) version with a magnet to grip the cut lid, but QVC seems to be selling them. www.qvcuk.com/Kuhn-Rikon-Ratchet-Can-Opener.product.816341.html There is a video showing how it works. The nice colours have vanished, there seems only to be black now. I suspect they are selling off stock because the fancier one is now on the market.

I have a battery operated can opener. So easy - no effort needed.

I have bad arthritis in my hands, resulting in being unable to close them properly. For about fifteen years I've used the OXO Good Grip can opener. After all this time it is still in perfect condition and it enables me manage to open cans without difficulty. Although I actually find that most of the cans I have come with a ring pull. I will have to buy a gadget for those soon.

Watching with interest as my current can opener, bog standard from Sainsburys, seems to be on its way out.

We bought a Lantana 2 in 1 safety from Amazon, it takes off the whole lid on a magnet with no sharp edges, very happy with it.
