---|---|---|
Revolutionary automatic, self-attaching design (no need to clamp to the lid). The LidLifter attaches itself to cans like magic. |
Requires minimal effort - highly efficient cutting wheel allows easy access to the contents of the can. |
Safe to use: leaves no sharp edges (opener cuts into the bead of the lid from the outside rim of the can and not the top). |
|
|
|
---|---|---|
All about hygiene - unlike traditional openers, the LidLifter will not touch the contents of the can. |
Features mini-pliers for removing lids without the need to handle. |
Versatile: also includes a handy ring-pull opener. |
|
|
|
|
---|---|---|---|
How to use - 1Once attached, turn the knob to engage the cutting wheel and then twist clockwise so that the LidLifter completes a full circle around the lid. |
How to use - 2Less resistance will be felt after a full circle is completed. Stop turning - the can is now open and the lid is ready to be removed. WARNING: don't cut more than one full circle. Over cutting may create burrs or slivers that could cause injury. |
How to use - 3To release the LidLifter, turn the knob counter-clockwise. The can may not look open, but it is. |
How to use - 4Use the mini-pliers on the side of the opener to lift the lid away from the can. Grip the rim of the lid between the pliers and lift the lid cleanly and easily. |

Product Description
Open your cans/tins with hygiene in mind courtesy of the Auto Safety LidLifter from Kuhn Rikon. Once attached via the automatic, ‘lock-on’ mechanism, the opener removes lids without any contact whatsoever with the contents of the can/tin. It also prevents the all-too-common problem of lids falling into the can/tin. The device is safe to use as well as being hygienic: it doesn’t actually cut the metal, which ensures that unwanted sharp edges do not remain on either the can/tin or the lid. After a full rotation around the lid - and a noticeable reduction in resistance - the can/tin is open (and no more turning is required). To complete the job, simply lift the lid from the can/tin using the mini-pliers/pincers.

THIS OPEN IS PERFECT. EASY TO USE (DON'T HAVE TO SQUEEZE TO HOLD IT ON THE CAN). LID POPS OFF. NO SHARP EDGES. Everything washes nicely for recyling. Woohoo! Something that really works GREAT!
From my perspective, this is the best and easiest to use can opener that I have ever used or owned, and I am now almost 70, so that's a lot of can openers.
Unlike some other openers of this type, it is especially easy to position and engage on the cans. The previous opener that this one replaced (a British one that resembles the Amazon Basics Safe Cut in appearance) was designed to be simplified, but was virtually impossible to position. Not so, this one. Just as the instructions explain, simply align the two semi-circular 'aiming' cutouts on the body and turn the knob about half a turn to engage and lock it on the can. It's really that simple and easy.
After that, I find it easier to hold the knob in place and then move the longer handle to rotate round the rest of the can. Once a lack of resistance is felt, the lid has been separated from the can and a half-turn anti-clockwise of the knob releases the opener from the can and lid (which remains in place).
The integrated 'pincher' does actually work to fully detach the separated lid from the can. Because of the way these types of opener operate, once the lid has been separated from the can, a vacuum exists within the can, particular if maintained by liquid within the can. This is not a major deal, but often means that it doesn't detach easily by itself. A fingernail, knife etc will work too, but with the aforementioned pincher, it's a breeze to accomplish without getting any liquid on your hands.
As others have attested, this type of opener leaves a replaceable lid to the can without leaving any jagged edges. If you have kids or are worried about cutting yourself (like I am), you should probably use one of this type of opener, even if not this specific one.
The only thing that I'm not so sure of is the hook for cans that come with ring-pull lids. I tried it only once (on a can of sardines) and it simply pulled the ring-pull out of the lid without removing any of it from the can.
As I said, I love this can opener and would certainly recommend it to anyone. I expect it to last for a long time, but if it ever wears out, I would certainly buy another one without hesitation.
I neither work for nor am I affiliated with either the manufacturer or Amazon. I just like this product and Kuhn Rikon, in general.
