    Derek.... The best hand held can opener in my  experience, is the Oxo Good Grips.  I have nothing to do with electric openers....noisy, and the electricity was on and off every week in my world.. however, some people are lazy or have hand limitations.          Lawrence/Maytaghbear

    Really want a vintage gas range but afraid....

    Both gas and electricity are powerful and are capable of severe damages.  However, as long as one pays respectful attention, all will  be well.    It would not be life as we currently know and enjoy it without gas and electricity.   Lawrence/Maytagbear
