I guess it depends on how left handed you are. I am a lefty but do many things right handed so I am not sure which way I use the can opener. I hold it with my left hand and turn clockwise with my right. I have noticed that if I try to turn it the other way it falls off course. I hope this helps you.
Yes! I am a lefty and LOVE my can opener. I do not have any problems with it like I do with traditional can openers. Also - the veggie peeler works both ways - left or right!
All Products designed for Lefty's or Righty's At conference this year, I learned that all of our products are designed to accomodate left or right handed users. I'd never even thought about it and found that interesting. (ie: the new roaster pan with the pour spouts on both ends, the deluxe cheese grater, veggie peeler)
