Product description
Product Description
Kuhn Rikon of Switzerland - the Ultimate Collection of Openers!
A key category within their ever-evolving collection of tools/gadgets, Kuhn Rikon of Switzerland has developed a range of openers to rival anybody! Their portfolio includes multi-purpose gadgets that also open ring-pulls, bottles and jars, as well as devices that are designed specifically for standard cans/tins. Boasting enviable features that maximise simplicity, safety and hygiene, they are guaranteed to enhance even the most well-equipped of kitchens.
The Auto Safety LidLifter
A hugely successful product within Kuhn Rikon of Switzerland’s innovative tools and gadgets assortment, the Auto Safety LidLifter is a can opener that never disappoints! Its astute design, sleek appearance and superb functionality ensure that it remains a popular choice for those looking to add a premium-quality gadget to their collection.
Suitable for all, including those with limited strength/mobility within their hands/wrists, the opener possesses a number of ingenious features that enable it to excel time and time again.
The Auto-Attach System - no Clamping Needed!
The gadget automatically locates/grips the lid of standard cans/tins. Whereas the majority of openers need to be manually clamped to the lid in order to begin the removal process, the Auto Safety LidLifter does so with a simple clockwise turn of its ergonomic knob.
Sharp Edges and Lids - a Thing of the Past!
The Auto Safety LidLifter is a member of an exclusive club of devices that do not cut into the metal of the can/tin in order to remove the lid. Instead, it elegantly un-crimps and un-rolls the lip - a process that is an exact reversal of how the lid is attached to the cylinder of the can/tin when it is originally filled. As well as the obvious safety benefit of this mechanism, it also eliminates the possibility of metal shavings/packaging entering the food.
No Cross-Contamination - use it for Everything!
The capacity of the Auto Safety LidLifter to remove the lid without cutting into the can/tin means that the device never comes into direct contact with its contents. This ensures that the opener doesn’t harbour unwanted bacteria and prevents any potential cross-contamination between different foods. As a result, it can be used for everything - even pet food! And it doesn’t even need to be washed after usage - an occasional wipe with a damp cloth is more than sufficient.
Hands-Free Lifting!
Once opened, the lid can be lifted from the can/tin without physically touching it courtesy of the Auto Safety LidLifter’s ingenious mini-pliers/pincers.

UPDATE - having now used this opener on probably a dozen cans I seem to be experiencing the same problem as some other reviewers in that it sometimes fails to cut all round in one go. I bought this opener for it's safety feature of no sharp edges even though I have never cut myself on a can...ironically, the first time the opener failed to fully open the can I cut myself trying to get the lid off!! Now, if the lid seems to be too tight to pull off I know the opener hasn't fully cut the rim, and go round again. Perhaps not the best can opener in the world after all but I have yet to find the one that is!
FURTHER UPDATE - after quite a lot of use I think I may have solved the problem with the opener not fully opening the cans. You have to turn the handle fairly slowly and it will then cut first time all the way round. If you try to rush it the blade seems to skip tiny bits and fails to cut neatly all round in one go. I have concluded that when new we tend to use it slowly but once we have used it for awhile we start turning the handle faster and faster and that's when it fails. Take a few extra seconds and cut slowly and it works first time every time in my experience.
which don't work well from Day One.
Worth paying extra.
The big PLUS is the way in which it leaves CLEAN SAFE EDGES (most of the time).
This is because it cuts the CRIMP, rather than the side of the can like other openers.
Another PLUS is the gripper plier for fingers-free safe removal and handling of the lid.
Another positive feature is the properly-contoured operating knob for a good grip.
BUT WILL IT LAST ?
Cutting the CRIMP is hard work for the blade. And I note that some
reviewers have had trouble with the performance falling-off.
I will keep an open mind. But shall not be surprised if things turn bad.
In the meantime, 5 STARS.
See PHOTO showing the smooth ROUNDED EDGE exposed after opening.
Clever.

A great buy that's quite costly for a tin opener but if it lasts years it's a good buy that remains to be seen ☆☆☆
