Product Description
If you are trying to manage counter clutter, consider eliminating some appliances. For instance, your electric can opener. If you have a KitchenAid stand mixer, this simple attachment turns it into a can opener! Simply attach it to the mixer accessory hub.
Amazon.com Review
Using your stand mixer to open tin cans seems beneath the machine's power, but then again, the stand mixer is all about versatility. The can opener attachment is a single, hefty piece of steel; attach it to the mixer's motor hub and position the can under the cutting blade. Pull the handle up and over and the can locks in place. Turn the power to speed 2 and watch it go. The stand mixer's weight balances heavy cans and its height accommodates tall ones. And while it's completely practical, its greater appeal is that it's fun to use. You might find yourself opening cans just so you can watch them twirl. --Betsy Danheim

 Look mom ~ no hands! June 29, 2008
D. Ortego
Ok, I just recently received and used this new widget, so it may be too early to tell but my initial quality report is quite promising. The opener is well made and locks in place like other attachment on my Kitchen-Aid Pro 600 stand mixer. The recommended speed for cans is number two and it turns, opens and peels off without any barbs. Those who reported that barbs are present is likely a random quality or tolerance issue. I know from experience from my hand-held opener, that over time the cutting disc wears out and thus' barbs occur on the can. If it last for 18-months or more I'll be happy. Anyway, at roughly 28 bucks, it's a pretty cool device.

 Best can opener one could buy! June 19, 2008
N. Tennis (Creswell, OR)
Dont waste any $$ on a electric can opener. This thing will open a #10 can in seconds! Should have got one of these a long time ago! Not one problem. You do need to watch your speed cause you could flip a can open faster than you could grab it.
 Not what I expected from KitchenAid! April 16, 2008
Stefanie Kline (LPC, IOWA)
I was really looking forward to getting this. But I have been very dissapointed. The cans always fall off and it rarely opens a can all the way. It is frustrating! Not worth the $40 I paid for it.
Just what I needed March 26, 2008
Patrick D. Hendry (San Jose, CA USA)
We wanted an electric can opener but didn't want anymore clutter on the kitchen counters. The KitchenAid mixer was already on the counter so adding the attachment was the perfect solution. It has worked well for us. Its a little more expensive than a free-standing unit but seems very well built and looks like it will last forever.
Great Can Opener February 8, 2008

The can opener does stick quite far out from the mixer, but works very well, and because I have my mixer in the corner, the space the opener takes up is not a problem and I keep my opener attached to the mixer all the time.
