Been wanting to ask for awhile.  Does anyone care what color their can opener is?

If it's an electric can opener that sits on the kitchen counter, I do care about the color. I wouldn't want a lime green or orange can opener sitting on the counter in my blue & ivory kitchen. I'd want stainless, ivory, blue, or black.

 

But if it's one that I'll keep on the pantry shelf or store in a drawer, then color doesn't matter to me.

No, not really. It seems people do. QVC seems to carry every color in the rainbow and then some.

No I really don't care. It sits in the drawer most of the time.

Don't care about color as my can opener resides in a drawer.

 

But what I do want is the side cutting smooth edge can openers. Oh my goodness are they a great invention. Easy peasy to open a can, no sharp edges, no disgusting looking rust stains/food goo.

It doesn't matter what color. When I bought this it only came in red but now it comes in 12 colors! 

I have severe dexterity issues and this kind of opener is the only kind I can use.

I have the Kuhn Rikon one from the Q so it sits in the drawer,  but if I had a countertop one, it would be black.

@ncmama  Not really. I have the Kuhn Rikon black and white polka dot. I just wanted to make sure I could find it easily in the drawer. I gave my DD and DIL the red and green respectively, because they liked those colors, but I'm sure they wouldn't have cared. Probably one of the best items QVC ever offered.
