Our take on the Hamilton Beach OpenStation Electric Automatic

The Hamilton Beach OpenStation is an electric can opener that opens cans from the side of the lid rather than piercing the top. That side-cut design leaves a smooth edge on the lid and lets it be lifted off and set back on the can as a temporary cover. It has a non-slip base, a safety switch and a handle, and it is aimed at people who open several cans a week and want a hands-off, one-touch job. Against manual openers it is faster and easier on the hands; against top-cutting electric models it leaves a smoother rim but needs the can seated correctly to start the cut.

Questions and answers

How does the OpenStation differ from a normal electric can opener?
It cuts around the side of the lid instead of piercing the top. That leaves a smooth edge and a lid you can lift off and set back on the can.
Does it work on all can sizes?
It handles standard soup, vegetable and pet-food cans. Very large or oddly shaped cans can be harder to seat, and the cut may miss.
Is it good for someone with arthritis?
Many owners with weak grip say yes, because it starts with one touch and does not need hand strength. The can still has to be positioned, which some find awkward.
Can the lid be reused as a cover?
Yes. The side-cut lid comes off intact and can be placed back on the can to cover leftovers.
Does it need to be held while it runs?
No. The non-slip base holds it steady, and the safety switch stops it when the lever is released.
Is it dishwasher safe?
No. Wipe the body and cutting mechanism with a damp cloth; do not immerse the electric unit in water.
