:joker: No.

I spent half an hour trying to open a tin of tuna, and ended up settling for the beans (they have the pully open top).

oh those are horrid

they are good for the first few weeks then they start thinking they own the place and refuse to open tins

Yes I can use any kind and I can also open a tin with a big knife if there is no opener. :angel:

Yes.

It normally takes a few turns because you start then it stops so you have to put it back in.

Just the right technique followed by applying the right ammount of pressure.
