Summary: Useless - unable to open many cans
Comment: I bought this because I saw a friend using one and thought it was cool. "no more sharp edges - why would you NOT want one?"
Unfortunately many, many can lids are sealed with glue. After you cut through the can lid, which often requires 2 full passes, the lid does not easily pull off. Instead you must use the "beak" attachment to pry the lid off. This can be physically difficult (which means I'm called into the kitchen to pull the sword out of the stone). About 5% of cans I encounter are still impossible to open this way, and I have to pull out my ugly, rusty, falling apart "traditional" opener to complete the task.
10 minutes to open a can? Memorizing which brands use glue? No way! I will donate this gizmo to some unlucky person, and will buy the "traditional" OXO can opener. Do yourself a favor and follow suit.

Summary: Great Can Opener
Comment: We've had the good grips smooth edge can opener for a few weeks now and are very, very happy with it. It is very easy to open with and does leave a clean edge. I have not had to fight or struggle with a can yet (as I did with my old ones). I did have to teach my family how to use it as it is different from a standard can opener. Once shown, it's very easy to use.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good design, bad execution
Comment: Need to complete a couple of turns for the can top to come off, but it does so w/out burrs or sharp edges as advertised. Not the easiest model to seat on a can top. The top grabber teeth are gimmicky.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Certainly better than traditional can openers
Comment: I purchased this item from another retailer. I made this buy because of the recommendation of America's Test Kitchen.
Pros: Smooth, easy action; no sharp edges.
Cons: Bulky; difficult to attach to can (though I'm getting better).
Summery: Works as advertised.

Summary: 18 months later...still going strong
Comment: I try to hold off on my reviews for kitchen products because I really want to make sure the durability is there. Back in February 2007, when I bought this can opener, I was very skeptical of the product's claims to room lids and leave behind smooth edges.
Now, 18 months later, I can give this can opener a 5-star review.
Here's my quick thoughts:
1. The can opener requires some practice to get the hang of it.
2. You'll likely spill a little of the can's contents at first.
3. It is easy to hold and even easier to clean.
4. It is a little bulky, so it doesn't fit in our silverware drawer.
5. The can opener works as good today as the first day it arrived.

Editorial Reviews:

The OXO Smooth Edge Can Opener cuts on the side of the can, below the edge - leaving no sharp edges on a can or lid. The side-wind knob with non-slip, comfortable grip is easy to use. The durable cutting wheel doesn't touch the can contents, while the lid pliers allow no-touch lid removal. It's a safe, hygenic way to open large & small lids.
