Has anyone else been having problems with opening tins? We found it
really hard to open tins with a previous tin opener. So I got an old
fashioned butterfly one and this didn't work very well, so bought
another from Asda (35p) and found this didn't work. Finally went to
John Lewis and paid for an expensive one (£7) and have now found this
doesn't work properly.

This made me think that maybe the manufacture of tinned goods has
changed slightly.

I've used an electric can opener for about 15 years now, I think it cost
around £6.

It's a kenwood, like this one:

If you type electric can opener into google and click 'shopping', you will
have loads of them starting from about £8.

No effort, hands free, clean edges, magentic lid holder, it's a no-brainer
really
