The product, in the report: Tornado clean cut red color battery operated hands free can opener.
We bought a Tornado battery operated can opener and opened a bunch of cans. The can opener created super thin sharp needle like shards about an inch long and we feared the shards might come off in the contents as they are poured out. Walmart sells the item as well as direct tv marketing.
