We bought this can opener to replace a 10+ year old clunker... what a difference!  The sleek design looks appealing on our counter top, and the easy-to-hide cord eliminates a major eyesore.  The opener works great on all can sizes, but for big/heavy cans, we learned we have to steady the opener with one hand;  a small *con* among numerous *pro* features.  I'd recommend this can opener to everyone.
