NORPRO Non-Slip Rubber Jar Opener, 1 EA, White

LOVE these heavy duty jar grips. Nothing worse than struggling with a tight jar lid..these do the trick. Even for older, arthritic hands. Also very handy for odd jobs or slippery tools. Work great with tools like screwdriver or wrenches! Makes handheld tools easy to grip. Thickness is a bonus as other grippers are thin and may tear. Not these! Perfect for every use.

I have advanced Dupuytren Contracture (especially in my left hand) which makes gripping anything with any success nearly impossible, but this non-slip rubber doodad can get a jar open for me almost 100% of the time. Occasionally I have to hold the top part of the jar under very hot water for a minute or two and then try the jar opener again, but that does the trick every time! I hear the seal on the jar POP and then it opens very easily. This is a great fix for a very common problem and I would definitely recommend one of these to anyone with Dupuytren’s, arthritis, or any hand weakness.

Second time purchase. Lasts for years. Very handy.

I had never purchased one of these although they have always been in my home. Businesses used to give these away with the logo on them at every county fair and business promotion. They were thick enough to be printed on. I ordered a few others and was shocked at how thin and flimsy the first ones I ordered were. After just a couple weeks of use (maybe that equates to opening 5-10 jars) it literally wripped in two. This one however is NOT one of those that are so thin as to be without worth. It is nice and thick. It grips so much better. It feels better in your hands. The others ordered felt weird just because they were so thin that it was like using a napkin to open the jar. So if you like these and no longer go where they are given away buy this one. It is without question superior to the others available for sale and well worth any increase in cost. Maybe a silly thing to write a review on, but everyone has a jar they need help with from time to time. I also purchased one of those fan looking things and while it also works it takes up a huge amount of space in the kitchen drawer and I doubt I will keep it just on that basis.

Well-priced. Ordered two. Using both, they work pretty well to open jars. Good grip. The material is a little bit too firm and not sticky enough for arthritic hands. Much better than nothing, but could be thinner more flexible material.

This works great! The ridges help give it a tighter grip. I much prefer it to the usual rubber grippers.

Great product!

Works much better than traditional grippers!!
