My wife bought a pampered chef one a decade ago. My dog SOMEHOW got his fucking teeth on it and chewed the fuck out of it. I sanded it down so I could still use it. It works, but looks like a retard made it in some shop class

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 917-30: Originally Posted By TargetTime: It will start skipping after a few months. I had one and it started skipping in a year or so. Same with the OXO one posted. If I can get 6 months or more from this one I will consider that a win. The P series ones won't ever fail, but that is too much work for me. I don't have space for or need the ones that crank open 10 pound cans. Also, no counter space for the lock down electrics that seem to work. My folks have a manual one that clicks closed when you squeeze the handles, that works well but I haven't found one online that had decent reviews. I just hate the ones you have to squeeze and keep tight, those types' teeth fail within like a week. For now, this one is my jam. |

Just can now and then of beans to put in my chili. Try the one in my OP. Skipping sucks. Squeezing sucks. In the end I may have to eat crow. For now, I am very impressed. I have used the pincher type to act as a P series type. THAT sucks, too. I can see the appeal of the manual type.  |
