This Choice Prep light duty can opener with base is perfect for light duty applications in any kitchen or prep area.

If your operation opens a variety of different sized cans during the day, then this light duty can opener might be the perfect fit for you. Not only does it open any size can, but it's built for sturdy, safe, and simple usage. Its handle provides plenty of leverage to manually puncture the can with ease, and its included base ensures that the unit is securely mounted to the tabletop during use. Whatever food you're accessing, this can opener will make the process both quick and easy.

Efficient and Versatile

This unit opens 2 to 3 cans per minute. In an operation where less than 15 cans need opened per day, this can opener is a great, versatile solution! Plus, to best serve your operation, this can opener accommodates all sizes of cans, including #10 cans. This ensures that all canned ingredients are easily accessible whenever needed.

Comfortable to Use

Outfitted with a 12" long handle, manual operation of this unit is both simple and comfortable. Because the handle provides plenty of leverage, piercing the can with the blade is fast and easy.

Base Included

Unlike other can openers, this one features a steel base to attach it to a tabletop for sturdy usage. The opening of the base accommodates can opener bars measuring 1" x 7/8".

Removable Knife

To make cleaning and maintenance as easy as possible, the can opener unit includes a removable knife and gear. Hardware sold separately.

Frequently Asked Questions From Customers

Should I sharpen the blade if it isn’t cutting properly?
No, you should not sharpen the blade. It is intentionally designed to be dull to help prevent metal shavings during use. If the can opener isn’t cutting properly or is producing metal shavings, the blade and gear should be replaced.
Both heavy- and standard-duty can openers can open the same types of cans and operate in a similar manner. A standard-duty can opener is a bit smaller, with a shorter handle that may require more turns to open the same can. A heavy-duty can opener is larger and features a more heavy-duty construction. As a result, it's capable of opening more cans per day. If you'd like more information about how to choose the right one for your needs, check out our can opener buying guide!

These can openers are not the best but are a good value for the price you pay. the biggest issue we had with them is that they didn't not come with any mounting hardware.

This can opener works very well. It's got plenty of weight to it. The mounting plate that came with is is adequate. It didn't have any screws included so I did have to pick those up to mount it.

We have bought 2 of these now for our daycare centers! It’s a life saver for the big number 10 cans! I highly recommend a much better buy than replacing cheap ones! This is a quality product at a great price!. Highly recommended

The Choice Prep Light Duty Manual Can Opener is a fantastic investment for any restaurant, cafe, or store that needs a variety of cans opened. The blade is removable, which makes cleaning super easy. You do have to get a good grip or else it might slip away, but overall it is a great product.

The description says light weight, but this can opener has gone thru thousands of cans with damage at all. You do have to get a good firm grip on it, but it works well.

Such a piece of crap. Total waste of money. Cheap, poor materials, terrible at opening cans, don't even use it (easier to use hand opener than struggle with this unit).

I had to give one start because unfortunately, it didn't work. Maybe it was because I didn't know how to properly use it, or just it's not a good product. And I would return the item but it costs money to send it back. I will update the review if I ever get it to work.

Thank you for your review, Gabriel! We would like to gather more information about your experience with this product. A Customer Solutions Representative will contact you soon!

Completely useless. I only open one to two cans per day, and we are only open on weekends, so I rarely ever have to use this, but whenever I do I have to repeatedly try to push down and open the can again because midway through the turn it comes off the can. I thought it might have been me, until I tried another one, which worked flawlessly.

We appreciate your review, Brian. We wish this product would have worked out for you. Our Customer Solutions team will remain in contact with you about this.

This unit is unacceptable for commercial use. Opening a number 10 can takes more effort than using a handheld can opener because you need to reset the blade over and over again. Very poor product.

Almost every time I use this can opener the gears "slip" and become disengaged causing you to have to have to puncture the top of the can again and crank the handle to open a can. Sometimes this happens multiple times to open one can.

We’ve only used this can opener twice and we are not too pleased. If we can get it to start spinning, the cutter cuts it very jagged and sometimes it is hard to remove. We went back to our other can opener to open cans.

This can opener worked flawlessly for us on the first use. Had to open ninety #10 cans of tomato paste and it was a clean cut and was as fast as you could spin the handle. Very durable.

Ordered the top part (no base) as a replacement part. Works well and gets the job done. We mounted this to out metal work prep table.

This opener is a lifesaver. I must have gone thru at least 5 hand openers in 2 months. I open 2 dozen cans of veggies a week to mix in the homemade pet food. I didn't want to drill holes in my vintage enamel table I use as an island, so I mounted the base plate to an old wooden stool, which slides under neath out of site. It makes quick work of those cans. I love this store!

If you need a versatile, light duty can opener, then look no further. The Choice Prep standard duty can opener is great for use in any facility, and boasts the ability to open a variety of can sizes to suit your evolving needs throughout the day.

This can opener is much more heavy duty that the heavy duty. If you are opening more than a couple of cans per day this is the can opener you are looking for!

Do not mistake this to be an Edlund... There is no comparison. I have reordered an Edlund and will be throwing this one away when I get the Edlund

We agree that Edlund products are very durable. The Standard Duty Can Opener without Base is a quality item for the price but if you are requiring a lot of use out of your opener then an Edlund product may be a better choice for you.
