I love the concept of the can opener that cuts the top off from the
side.
There are several on the market that do this, allowing you to use the
top of the can as a replaceable lid.

However..each of those Ive tried last about 5 cans then break.

Any good ones out there?

Yes. Pampered Chef.

Kinda pricey, but they work. Goin' on 5 years and hundreds of cans
with ours. Daughter has one too, same experience.

Williams-Sonoma has a good one, but they are about double "Kinda
pricey". It's nice to be able to sit the lid back on stuff like corn
and condensed milk for Vietnamese-style drip coffee.
