Oxo can opener
The Oxo can opener is a breeze to use and does the job it was intended to do. The nice soft handle is very comfortable and when folded away alows for easy storage. We would reccomend this product to anyone looking for a strong comfortable and efficient can opener.

Q: Does this OXO can opener leave a smooth edge?
A: No. The OXO Soft Handled Can Opener uses a stainless steel cutting wheel for standard lid cutting, not a side-cutting smooth-edge design. If you want an uncut side edge, a smooth-edge safety opener is the better fit.
Q: Is the OXO 48202 can opener dishwasher safe?
A: No. OXO 48202 is hand wash only, so it is not suitable for dishwasher cleaning. The cutting wheel is stainless steel and resists corrosion in regular kitchen use, but hand washing is the care method for this model.
Q: Can it open bottle caps as well as cans?
A: Yes. This model has a built-in bottle opener for crown-cap bottles, so it can handle cans and standard bottle caps with one tool. It is not designed for screw caps, jars, or ring-pull tabs that do not need a cutting wheel.
Q: Will the soft grip still hold when hands are wet?
A: Yes. The cushioned handles have a soft non-slip grip, and the oversized knob is shaped for easier turning when hands are wet. It is still a manual can opener, so you need to clamp it onto the rim before turning the handle.
Q: What size drawer will this can opener fit in?
A: The OXO Soft Handled Can Opener measures 5.08 x 17.78 x 7.62 cm. That suits a standard kitchen drawer in most homes, but it is a full-size manual opener rather than a compact camping or travel-style tool.
Q: How durable is the stainless steel cutting wheel?
A: The stainless steel cutting wheel is designed for regular kitchen use and resists corrosion better than untreated steel parts. It is intended for everyday canned goods, but hand washing and drying will help keep the mechanism working smoothly.
