Urgent Which Can Opener Is Better for My Housewarming Party Orders?

[kcmckay]

So I had a housewarming party and I got 2 decent size orders from two of my Aunts' I was originally going to add them to a show I haven't closed yet. However, I then realized that I could submit those 2 orders and have enough for a show to put in my name and could attempt to collect some more orders so I can get myself some new products and have a show for Sept. However my one aunt ordered the can opener and I'm wondering which is better? If the old one is I'll add it to the show? I haven't given them totals or collected payment so the shipping difference wouldn't even be noticed. TIA

I don't have the new one (yet) but everyone seems to like the new one better. Hope that helps.

There is a thread on here that discusses the new can opener. I recall that most reviews were favorable.

I just got mine last night. Now, keep in mind that DH and I aren't always good with change... and we like the current can opener...so we were leary.

We opened some cans today and we really do like it. It goes on the can easier. It actually might be easier to turn (or it might be my imagination ). Though I probably couldn't say that I like one better than the other, I have no problem with the new one.

I couldn't see anyone being disappointed with the new one.

I love the new one. It is so much easier to open. My son says it is alot easier also. He is 8

LOVE the new one! And I'm left handed and it's really easy to use. Seems less complicated than the old one.

Well that sold me my uncle is left handed and they always have trouble finding things he's able to use well too.

I like to say they "idiot-proofed" it for dummies like ME who tried to put it on top of the can instead of on the side.Be aware, there is a price difference between the old and new one.

I have/had them both. I got the new one because the old one became dull and was harder to open cans with.
That said, I do have to say I LOVE the new design so much better!
