Good Grip Jar Opener

This product was ordered over the website and was received promptly even without paying extra for speedier shipping. The product was purchased for my 89-year-old mother who had thrown out a similar looking device when she moved from her home to more modest accommodations. Unfortunately, the product was a very big disappointment. The jar opener slips on the lid because the gripping surface on one side of the opener has not be machine with a roughen surface. Others have reviewed this product and offered similar complaints; unfortunately I did not heed their warning.

I was disappointed when I received this item. Not what I expected! It doesn't really grip the caps you're trying to open solidly and the sharp ridges on the opener create sharp scratches on the caps. I felt I wasted my money on this product. I will probably just chuck it or sell it at garage sale.

Ms.

The teeth on the underside that should grab are weak, bent. The opener does not work. Don't waste your money. Buy the flat, soft plastic disc which works well.

Not pleased. It doesn't grip easily, and just slides around the top and marks it up. Would not recommend.

Disappointed

I was hoping this gadget would help my 16-year old be more self-sufficient. This gadget did not help in the least.

Q: Do you need to hold the jar in your left hand to use the jar opener? I have pain in my left hand and thumb i.e. CMC joint.

Asked by: Cathy - 3/29/2016

A: Yes, the jar would have to remain stationed in order to twist the top off. If you have limited strength in the opposite hand you may consider using the soloGrip One-Handed Jar Opener (Product #: CKE17142) in conjunction with the OXO Good Grips Jar Opener.
