Hmm, wonder what is up with all those bad can openers? Are you folks checking Consumer Reports before you get one?

I've had the under mount one for years! Only replaced it last year when we redid the kitchen, to swap the color. They last forever, here.

Now don't get me started on the hand crank ones, they are horrid!

Yes! My mom has had the under the cabinet opener for years too. I think she did replace it once (over the course of probably 20 years). But it's still going strong. Before that we had an old on the counter one (it was beautiful butter yellow to match the kitchen, does that tell you how old it was?) and it lasted forever too. I guess they don't make things like they used to.
At my house we use the hand crank one. Not enough counter space for an eletric one. And not really any over head cabinets to attach it to either.
