A blend of ingenious design and practical function makes this electric can opener a foolproof choice for any busy kitchen. The extra-tall unit accommodates a variety of sizes - from short, wide cans of tuna or salmon to larger cans of soup or chow mein - and everything in between. Furthermore, its patented Power Pierce cutting mechanism effortlessly pierces lids and slices them off cleanly, while its extra-strong magnetic lid lifter grips cans while spinning and holds their lids for easy, injury-free disposal. As an added benefit, the appliance features a built-in knife sharpener designed to help keep kitchen cutlery in prime operating condition, as well as a convenient cord-storage compartment to leave countertops tidy. Additional highlights include a sturdy base for steady use, a contemporary profile that looks great when left out on the counter or center kitchen island, and an auto-stop function that halts operation when through. A smart way to get healthy, home-cooked meals on the table in record time.
