We've had one of these for years and it finally stopped working even though it's lightly used. I had hoped some mechanism could be replaced in the unit, but not so. If you look at the so called "cutting wheel" in the unit, there is no blade as such. The wheel is at an angle to the top of the can and I believe the wheel actually presses the top of the can from below with such force that it separates from the body of the can. The wheel has a "step" halfway down it that does the job.
It's a shame the wheel wears out because the rest of the unit is very stout. When I disassembled the old one, everything in it was very solid. The plastic gear wheel inside that turns the toothed gear that moves the can had zero wear on it.
The new instruction books do not mention the clear plastic tab that covers the removal wheel and I thought the opener was defective until my wife saw it. They could have made it white colored so it was easier to see.
Also, the cord does come out farther, but it's not an elegant method to do so. It just has a space inside where it's crammed into and you pull a bit hard to pull it out.
So in summary, it does remove tops with a smooth edge but will probably not last more than a few years if you use it frequently.
I watched a video, a guy bought the new Dewalt battery powered mower, $500.00+! He said he'd be happy if he got five years from it! Yikes! Throw away society at it's best.
Thank you very much, kind Sir, for demonstrating this Hamilton Beach can opener 76606Z. The lever is my most interested feature. I will be getting one. 👍😀👍
THANK YOU! I USED A HAND CRANK FOR 60 YEARS...THIS AUTOMATIC MACHINE IS BEAUTIFUL. REAL EASY, LEAVES NO SHARP EDGES. AFTER CUTTING THE TOP OFF, PULL THE TOP OFF FROM THE SIDES. MIGHT SEEM LIKE IT'S NOT CUT AT FIRST LOOK. JUST PULL UP ON THE RIM EDGE.
The cord does comes out longer you need to pull cord harder
Oh OK! Cool, thank you!
Sad that when this opener stops cutting the lids open, you have to buy a new one. A replacement blade would make this a great product and not get thrown away in the trash. They work great...when they work...
Update to my previous comment. They actually do offer a replacement blade. Problem is it cost way way more than buying a new can opener of the same type...
My 3 year old Hamilton Beach can opener stopped opening my cans...so I bought a brand new one...it doesn't work either.
How much is the box opener?
Check out Goodwill, they usually have a couple plastic tub with knives for buck, one dollar. TJ Maxx is a great store store kitchen stuff, if you live by one.
That's good stuff sir
Thanks for watching! Jim
This machine is very complicated...!,
I hear ya. It's a bit tricky. But works great once you get the hang of it!
What’s on page 10?
So it's NOT AUTOMATIC.
