Customer Reviews
disappointing
I've had one of these for less than a year. Already the black rubbery stuff on the outside has started to crack, even though I don't think that part gets much stress. But that is not the main reason I am dissatisfied. I bought this jar opener because I was looking for something to open wide jars, for example my olive jars which are a little over 3 1/4 inches in diameter. I have small hands and have developed arthritis in my left thumb joint. I had hoped this item would grip the jar firmly enough that I wouldn't have to grip as hard as I do with the floppy type rubber jar openers. It has not helped and my thumb bothers me more than usual for several days after opening a jar of olives. The opener is OK for small jars, but with any jar wide enough that I have to use the large end for opening, it does not work easily. It is not very expensive, but the floppy all-rubber jar openers work just as well for me and cost less money.
Does so many things!
I am a happy happy person with this new gadget, it has made my life easier opening bottle tops, jars, pop tops, etc.... when you have old arthur and your hands hurt, this little gem is without a doubt a blessing! I am so glad I bought it!
Great little opener
Bought this for my Mom and had a chance to check it out and use it during a Thanksgiving visit.
Pros:
1. Very sturdy and feels well made. Has great hand feel and I think it will last a good long time. (I'll post an edit to this review if it doesn't!)
2. Opens a wide variety of containers and should serve my Mom well with 90% of her opening needs.
3) The portion of this tool that grips the lid to be opened has a semi-tacky feel and provides a good hold on the interior of the tool.
Con:
1. The exterior handle, where your hand contacts the tool, could be prone to slipping. It's hard textured plastic with no rubber gripping surfaces and that concerns me.
Again, this is based on a good amount of Thanksgiving usage, but no long term tests so far. I'll re-post if this review changes based on my Mom's experience.
