Hamilton Beach Tall Can Opener Model 75224 Review

When I first purchased the Hampton Beach can opener it was fine, but after a few cans it began to splatter when the can opening process was finished. I noticed that at the last moment when a can is being opened and there is that little piece of metal left to be opened.  At that moment for some reason the machine would snap the lid and it would cause the ingredients to splatter. Also I noticed after using the machine about 15 times the cans would get stuck in the can opener and I would have to nudge the can and it would cause a bigger mess than just the splatter alone. Also the little magnetic piece that is supposed to catch the metal lids to the cans does not work very well at all.  I has become apparent that this piece on the can opener is just for show.  The magnet is not strong enough to hold the lids. There for possessing no purpose.

I would like to tell you that even though the Hampton Beach can opener has many faults.  It does possess a good quality.  It has a quick release button on the top, to take the can opener apart for cleaning.  I really find that very accessable and easy to operate and most of all to clean the food that gets stuck on to the blade.
