The Hamilton Beach® OpenStation™ Multi-Opener
The Solution for Hard-to-Open Containers, Including Hard-Plastic Packaging
|
The Hamilton Beach® OpenStation™ multi-opener is more than just a can opener. It combines three easy-to-use tools for six ways to open packaging, including difficult-to-open, hard-plastic (clamshell) containers.
With the OpenStation™ multi-opener, consumers no longer need to dig through the utensil drawer to find a tool to open the wide variety of packaging they are faced with.
An April 2007 survey conducted by SPSS online asked 250 respondents what items they thought were most difficult to open. The OpenStation™ multi-opener is designed to open most of the top 10 items cited including: plastic packaging (#1); jar lids (#3); bottle caps (#6); pop-top soup cans (#7); and twist-off caps (#9).
The OpenStation™ multi-opener can:
- Remove jar lids easily with the comfortable and flexible jar opener.
- Take care of pop-top cans, glass and plastic bottle caps and hard-plastic, clamshell packaging with the OpenMate™ multi-tool.
- Open traditional cans the first time, every time, with the SureCut™ electric can opener technology.
The OpenMate™ multi-tool and jar opener attach to the can opener so consumers have one convenient place to open all their packages.
