Question: west bend can opener
Document: The handle lever is made of plastic and only lasts a month or two. Once it breaks, the can opener is useless. There is no replacement part on the Cuisinart web site. Don't buy this product. I then purchased the West Bend 77203 Electric Can Opener. Awesome. One hundred times better and also cheaper. It is a much better design.
Biggest piece of junk I have ever bought! I unfortunately did not buy it thru Amazon or I would have read the great reviews and stayed away!It broke. It has a little PLASTIC insert that holds the blade onto the opener.when you call Cuisinart . . . well, you're on your own.I bought the West Bend and love my new opener!
Our Cuisinart died today. No surprise, it has been sick for a long time. Did not have the power to open big cans without a struggle. We had it for two years. Have ordered the West Bend.
Exactly the same problem.Been living with it for over a year when today I decided I won't be dealing with this POS for the holiday's. Just ordered the West Bend based on the reviews. Hopefully that model will fair better than this garbage.You've been warned.
So now I have another one of these...OMG!But it appears that West Bend 77203 is the one to get so as soon as I am done writing this, I will buy that one on Amazon and just wait until the Cuisinart goes belly up....When it does break, this time I will ask for a refund at Bed, Bath, and Beyond.
My can opener has been thrown in the trash can.
Best can opener I've ever purchased.
Wanted a can opener that was sure and easy to load and clean at the finish.We got that and more.
We ordered this can opener as a Christmas gift for our daughter and son-in-law and they loved it! Thank you.
I'm going to go buy a cheap electric can opener next time.
Answer: We have never used a west bend opener.We have owned a Cuisinart for some time. It works great for a out 9 months to a year till the cutting assembly goes bad. I found a web site in Canada that sells the complete cutting assembly for $11.00 so I always have a spare ready.
