Cuisinart SCO-60 Deluxe
Score: 80/100
Elitra Home 3-in-1 Under Cabinet
Score: 64/100Rankings
The Cuisinart SCO-60 provides a sturdy brushed stainless-steel build, extra-wide base, and one-touch operation with added accessories like a knife sharpener. Its large size, weight, and need for hand-only cleaning may deter some users. Perfect for frequent can-opening in high-volume or premium kitchens.
The ELITRA HOME 3-in-1 under-cabinet opener offers space-saving mounting and 4-in-1 tools for cans, bottles, and knives. However, it is extremely noisy and has reported reliability problems. It's aimed at space-constrained kitchens where noise isn't a primary concern.

Professional reviewers consistently commend the SCO-60 for its sturdy, extra-wide base that prevents tipping, the precision Power Cut blade that delivers clean cuts, and the premium brushed stainless-steel construction. They also highlight the convenience of one-touch, hands-free operation and useful accessories like the magnetic lid holder, while noting the safety issue of sharp lid edges and the requirement for hand-only cleaning.
Everyday users echo the professional praise for stability and ease of use, describing the opener as heavy, reliable, and 'pretty slick' when opening large cans. The removable lever and magnetic lid holder are appreciated for simplifying cleanup, though users also mention the sharpness of lids and the inconvenience of hand-washing the unit.
“pretty slick”
“easily handles large commercial cans”
“the noisiest loudest nonworking can opener I've ever seen”
Professional retailer pages present the Elitra Home as a space-saving, multifunctional solution for small kitchens, emphasizing its automatic operation and durable build, but they provide no independent testing or detailed power specifications, leaving its performance largely unverified.
Everyday users generally like the convenience and multifunctionality, especially for limited kitchen space and accessibility needs, but the overwhelming negative feedback centers on extreme noise levels and occasional reliability failures.
