I hate can openers!!
 
Like others here, I like Swing-a-Way brand, they are
heavy steel with geared drivewheel/cutterwheel
coupling. These are classics, like Vise-grip pliers,
and all the imitations fall short .

Another style of canopener uses a hard indenter wheel
to split the seam of the can lid, leaving a press-fit
lid for the can; this works well for eat-half-now
meal plans. It's a lovely little mechanism...

The handles on those things suck--way too much strain on the wrist.

So, THAT's where those suckers disappeared to!

But do they have an electric model?

Thanks,

Why do you ask ?
