2. Technical: Manual can openers are easier to use, provided you have the required strength for the particular can. Electric can openers may be of great help, but there are buttons that you have to press. It might seem a little complicated in the beginning but with continuous use, it’ll become handy.

6. Power: Electric can openers need to be charged else they will remain dead. Manual can opens need not be charged since it’s a tool, not a machine. In case you are out for a picnic or any other activity, manual openers may lose out.
7. Convenience: Electric can openers are very convenient to use and need no effort at all. These openers make a grip on the can and remove the lid for you. There is nothing that one has to do, other than pressing a few buttons. Manual can openers don’t share the same advantages.
8. Caution: One can toss, wash, scrub, play with a manual can opener, but not the same in case of electric can openers. These can openers need a lot of care; its elements are sensitive and can be damaged easily.
