Reply to Guess which can opener still works? L to R- 30 + years old, 3 years old, 6 months old … planned obsolescence or crappy design (of course they increase in price tag from L-R) by Torvabrocoli

I think it's just a case of overcomplicating something that doesn't need it. Leftmost has fewer moving parts and doesn't rely on a sharp rotating blade. Not surprising, I've never had a good experience with the right design.

Another plus for the leftmost one is that it doesn't leave a sharp edge on the can which is great for drinking the juice out of peach tins.

This video is one of the universal constants I've decided. I don't think I can remember a single October when I don't see this exact video. Wouldn't be surprised if it's been around longer than I've had internet access.
