Bialetti Good Cook Orbi SafeCut Can Opener

Quit working after less than a year

Strengths: NA

Weaknesses: Teeth don't last.

Summary: I purchased the ORBI in April 2006; in March 2007 the teeth quit gripping the can, rendering the product useless. If you don't mind spending close to 20 bucks for an opener that has this short of a life span, then I guess the ORBI is meant for you. Otherwise, I recommend sticking with the tried-and-true old fashioned openers that typically last for years.

orbi can opener..i can get better for 99 cents

Strengths: none

Weaknesses: everything.

Summary: my brother and i both have some arthritis in our hands.so i bought 2 of these openers last summer.although the handle was a little hard to turn they worked ok for about 4 or 5 months.thewn they quit cutting deep enough to open the cans.i only use a can opener about 10 or 12 times a month as most of my vegetables are fresh cooked;so i don't think heavy use would be an issue..i e-mailed the company 3 or 4 times last december;but never got an answer.nor could i find and address where i could return them to.i went out and bought an old fashioned type opener from a local discount store for $1.99...it works perfectly..

i will never but another product of any kind from this company.
