About this deal
According to Steuby, to create the EZ-Duz-It, his company made several improvements to the Swing-A-Way model, including making the handle ¼ inch longer.
Once locked, there’s no need to worry about it sliding or loosening thanks to anti-slip grooves lining the handle. We’ve been long-term testing an older (now discontinued) version of the EZ-Duz-It can opener in the Wirecutter test kitchen since 2017.The inexpensive and durable EZ-Duz-It can opener securely latches onto cans and cuts through their lids with utmost ease. Opening a can with the Bartelli can opener was no more difficult than opening using a hinged rotary can opener, and the compact design meant storing it was easy as well. It did not give enough leverage and the thin metal bent and warped after testing it on only two cans.
This easy-to-use screw cap opener is made from durable stainless steel that’s resistant to oxidation, wear and deformation.
EZ-Duz-It Deluxe Can Opener: This hinged can opener worked well but after washing the can opener twice, rust spots appeared on the metal. The steel teeth on the clamp grab the end of the stubborn lid tightly and hold it the entire time you are twisting. Plus, there’s no need to tightly close a clamp mechanism like in a rotary can opener, which is a plus for those with arthritis or limited mobility. It's a good helper in your own kitchen room, and also a nice gift to your parents, sisters, friends. What we liked: The Beneno manual can opener functions similarly to the OXO can opener, as a traditional hinged can opener.
It is also recommended to wipe clean with a cloth and not wash with water, though we did wash the can opener during testing and did not notice any rust or other issues. Traditional hinged can openers are intuitive and easy to use, mostly because people grew up with them. From the latest kitchen kit to power through the prep, to a brand new piece of bakeware that’s exactly the shape and size you’ve been looking for; and from storage solutions to cleaning innovations and laundry lifesavers that make the chores – well, less of a chore! He has served as a judge for the 2021 IACP Cookbook Awards and served on the executive committee for the 2022 IACP Cookbook Awards.Though we realize it can be annoying to fish a cut lid out of a can, we don’t think that’s a dealbreaker due to this can opener’s efficiency and overall performance. Cleaning Test: We washed each can opener six times during testing to see how easy it was to clean and remove sticky residue like garbanzo bean liquid ( aquafaba) and sweetened condensed milk. It securely attaches to the side of the can and easily removes the lid without requiring too much effort on your part.
