The product, in the report: Can opener (manual)
The consumer stated that 2 months ago he was using his can opener and while opening the can he noticed that 1/2 inch of the metal was being sheared instead of making a smooth cut. The can opener was discarded because he figured that it was too old.
Approximately two and a half weeks later he purchased the same brand can opener. When he began opening another can he saw that the edges were not smooth and were very jagged. Small Sharp pieces of metal are coming off the can.
(2 weeks ago) The consumer e-mailed the retailer and the brand company, he received a return email from the brand company and they informed him that they don’t make the can opener and provided him the name of the manufacturer.
The consumer feels that the can opener poses a safety hazard because the jagged edges may possibly fall into the contents that are in the can.
