Why we know this works!
We love this automatic can opener because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we know opening a can is secretly a two-handed strength task, and it is often one of the first kitchen jobs people quietly give up. Can you open a can with one hand? Yes: set this on top of the can, press one button, and it glides around the lid by itself, with no squeezing, no holding the can still, and smooth edges instead of a sharp jagged lid. That matters because when cooking gets hard, nutrition usually slips right along with it.
It is especially helpful for people using one hand after a stroke and for anyone whose arthritis or weak grip makes manual openers painful. It runs on 4 AA batteries that are not included, so have those on hand, and if jars are the bigger battle in your kitchen, look at the Electric Jar Opener as well.
