Product Description

Open your cans/tins with hygiene in mind courtesy of the Auto Safety LidLifter from Kuhn Rikon. Once attached via the automatic, ‘lock-on’ mechanism, the opener removes lids without any contact whatsoever with the contents of the can/tin. It also prevents the all-too-common problem of lids falling into the can/tin. The device is safe to use as well as being hygienic: it doesn’t actually cut the metal, which ensures that unwanted sharp edges do not remain on either the can or the lid. After a full rotation around the lid - and a noticeable reduction in resistance - the can is open (and no more turning is required). To complete the job, simply lift the lid from the can using the mini-pliers/pincers.

The Deluxe Safety LidLifter is the perfect 7-inch kitchen tool for anyone tired of dodging the jagged edges of cans and lids. Unlike conventional openers, the Safety LidLifter cuts into a can below the rim of the lid, so there are no sharp edges, the blade never touches the food, and the final turn of the crank doesn't inconveniently drop the lid into the can's contents. The turning mechanism works smoothly for both right- and left-handers, and the soft turning knob provides a comfortable grip. Best of all, the cute puffin-beak-shaped lifting clamp means you never have to touch a lid. --Emily Bedard

Revolutionary automatic, self-attaching design (no need to clamp to the lid). The LidLifter attaches itself to cans like magic.

Requires minimal effort - highly efficient cutting wheel allows easy access to the contents of the can.

Safe to use: leaves no sharp edges (opener cuts into the bead of the lid from the outside rim of the can and not the top).

All about hygiene - unlike traditional openers, the LidLifter will not touch the contents of the can.

Features mini-pliers for removing lids without the need to handle.

Versatile: also includes a handy ring-pull opener.

How to use - 1

Once attached, turn the knob to engage the cutting wheel and then twist clockwise so that the LidLifter completes a full circle around the lid.

How to use - 2

Less resistance will be felt after a full circle is completed. Stop turning - the can is now open and the lid is ready to be removed.

WARNING: don't cut more than one full circle. Over cutting may create burrs or slivers that could cause injury.

How to use - 3

To release the LidLifter, turn the knob counter-clockwise. The can may not look open, but it is.

How to use - 4

Use the mini-pliers on the side of the opener to lift the lid away from the can. Grip the rim of the lid between the pliers and lift the lid cleanly and easily.
