How to choose an electric can opener

Corded or cordless? Corded countertop openers never need charging but take up outlet and counter space. Cordless rechargeable models, such as the Hamilton Beach FlexCut and Proctor Silex here, store in a drawer but need to be charged.

Do you need it to be easy to clean? Cutting parts touch food, so look for a removable or detachable cutting lever and check how the listing says to clean it. Reviewers often mention how easy a blade is to wipe down.

What about edges and cans? Listings often say whether an opener leaves a smooth edge or works on larger cans. Read recent reviews for complaints about cans slipping or needing a second pass.

How much should you spend? The openers here run from about $28 to $77. Several well-rated models cost $40 or less, so a higher price mainly buys a bigger brand or a different design.
