Electric can opener to ease arthritic hands
Electric can opener to ease arthritic hands
When it became apparent that my father was having a harder time opening up cans with the original can opener he had I had to find him an electric can opener. He has arthritis and it is getting worse so this would make it easier for him to get the entire lid of and not have to hurt his fingers or knuckles in the process. I only had to show him once how to use it and now he uses it always.

I love working for a local appliance store. I get to see the newest gadgets before anyone else. Often times we get to try them out or use the floor model. One day I desperately needed a can opener for my lunch and I had no other option but to use the display electric can opener we had up on the shelf. Actually in my surprise it worked really well and I ended up getting one for my house too.

If someone asked me what the best kitchen accessory I have was I would quickly say my electric can opener. I love it, and it is super easy to use. I can easily place the can on the magnet strip and have it cut the top off and leave no sharp metal edges. It can also sharpen a dull knife when I need that done as well. It is definitely a focal point in my kitchen and will be for some time.

Not sure what to buy my sister for her house warming present I went searching through store after store until I was out of ideas. I finally just called her and asked her what she wanted. It was a last ditch effort I know, but it had to be done. When she told me all she wanted was a nice electric can opener I was ecstatic. I knew I could go right to the local appliance store and get a nice one for her.

I am usually a huge bargain shopper, always looking for a deal here or there. I was surprised at the quality I found when I was looking for a new electric can opener. It really seemed the quality matched the prices. This in itself was a shock. I ended up deciding on one that pealed the lid underneath when it cut it off to remove that sharp edge so no one gets cut. That was a great feature, especially with children in the house.

The kitchen in most familys homes is the gathering place for company at one point in time. Think about it when you have company over, where do the women usually go, the kitchen right? That is because they like to compare their gadgets. All the way from the new granite countertop or the double stainless steel sink all the way to the new electric can opener on the counter. That is why most men stay in the living room.

My cats ears are tuned into 2 things in my home. The sound of the water faucet being turned on to fill their water dish and the sound of the electric can opener opening their favorite food. As soon as they hear these sounds it makes no difference what part of the house they are in they come running because they know it is time to eat.

Not realizing how much needed to be replaced after we redid our kitchen I was surprised when I was shopping for new kitchen appliances. We got a new stove; fridge, microwave and electric can opener. Making sure all of them matched was not an issue, it seems like the manufacturers really watch what one does and they make sure they have additional products in the same color or fashion to match. I know this made our remodel easier to complete.

Safety is important in any household, whether there are children present or not. Getting products that have safety mechanisms in place to avoid injury is a major plus. So when I found an electric can opener that offered a removable magnetic piece that could be removed so no fingers would accidently get cut it was a must have in my kitchen. Now when we are done with it, we just remove it and put it in the drawer so no one gets hurt.

I was unsure of how my daughter would be when she moved into her first apartment, so being a worried mom I took her to the store and we stocked her apartment of things she would need. We ended up getting many things including an electric can opener, toaster and coffee pot for the kitchen. She was happy we were able to find them all in green, which is the color she opted for the design of the appliances.
