Black & Decker Gizmo Can Opener

Louann of Newburgh Heights, OH July 9, 2009

I also purchased a Gizmo can opener at Sears 12/28/2004. I have had trouble with it since day one. It is sometime charged, and sometimes not, it is always in the charging stand. The reason I purchased the product is it is supposed to be for convenience, and is supposed to stay charged even when not on the stand. I usually take out my hand operated can opener when it does not work, but today was the last straw, my daughter took the hand operated one to school, so I did not have any other backup. I was in the middle of dinner AND IT WAS DEAD AGAIN.

My wife and I purchased a Black and Decker electric can opener from Sears, and this design is absolutely the poorest excuse for a can opener I have ever seen. It will not grasp can rims, peels labels into the can when it sometimes will open a can, if and when it even will do that--and is in general, junk.

Metal and label paper in contents of can, if and when it even grasps the can, and simply most of the time will not work at all, even as a brand new product.
