I think this is the best solution to open tight and tough lids. This jar opener works amazing %100. I had to just insert 2 AA batteries and set the device over jar. Just by pressing on button, device hugs the lid and pops it up open just within few seconds. I don't need to open lids with knife any more. Very happy!

I have begun having trouble with opening jars. . . .as a function of age.
This gadget makes it unnecessary for me to call my husband every time I need a jar opened. Yay!
Simple to use although I sometimes bumble in using the button appropriately. No problem.
LOVE it and would recommend to all. My elderly mother likes hers too :)

And applied it to a mayonaise jar, then to a jelly jar, worked like a charm. Resisted the urge to go buy pickles to see it would work on that. Overall, simple & effective, and the price was great. Ordered another for someone who has severe hand weakness.

We got this JAR opener , as I broke too many using traditional JAR opener. This is very easy to use JAR opener where only effort you need to put is press the button on the opener.
We put in the batteries and put the opener to work. You put the opener on the JAR and click the button. This machine starts working immediately, it adjust it self to make it self snug against the JAR wall. Once done in few clicks the JAR cap is opened and it reverts back for you to remove it.
One of the fantastic kitchen tool for anyone having hard time to open the JARs.

The jar opener is very helpful for my family! When it came, the opener came in a compact box, and that helps for easy storage when we do not use it. The opener is ran by batteries and can be placed on many different types of jars. It can expand on the bottom where it’s rubber holders are. The arms can expand and contract to fit any type of hat that needs open. The button on top would be pressed when you are ready to use it. It will move its arms to grasp the jar then it will undo the cap. Then the arms will expand fully when it’s done. The opener can be placed and left to run, it does not require you to hold it. I highly recommend this jar opener!

This jar opener fits all the jar that we have. I tried it to all of the jars. With just a push of a button, the jar works so efficiently. It is made of plastic material and rubber which they look quality. It is easy to clean because the plastic is so smooth. Also, it is very light. It is battery operated but very powerful.

I broke my dominant hand in a car accident a few years back and it never healed properly and even with physical therapy I still don't have the grip strength I use to have. With this electric jar opener, I can now open all the jars in my house without any help from someone else!
I was super excited to try this product and the day the electric jar opener arrived, I had to try it immediately. I may have went a little overboard and opened all the jars in my house! It looks like I'm eating spaghetti and pickles for the next month or so, but at least I opened the jars myself!
This is a must have if you have low grip strength or are losing grip strength for whatever reason it may be!

This thing is so easy to use. The instructions say to pull down on the two outside bars. I did not read any further. I started with that. Immediately, all components of the opener went into action. The bottom lever I pulled on went into the jar and gripped it, while two upper levers did the same. Without even stopping, it grasped the bottle, turned the lid and opened it.

My hands are paralyzed... left hand fully and right hand 90% from a rare neurological disorder in my spine.... opening jars is my #1 nemesis! I can’t grip let alone twist... I’ve managed to adapt and manipulate my hands to do a lot of other things except JARS....
It gets hard for me to finish cooking meals if no one is around to assist... that’s why I looked into getting an electric jar opener. I wish I hadn’t waited this long cause this tool is heaven sent!!! When it arrived I had my son put batteries so I can try it as soon as possible... it took about a week for me to finally need it. I was cooking spaghetti and just as I asked my husband to open the jar I remembered I had bought myself an electric opener!!
Quality is nice, it’s actually pretty heavy for a little thing... but easy to hold due to size large size of it. I wasn’t yet sure how to use it do I asked my hubby to put it over the cap and press the button. it slowly closed its claws til it reached the jar then turns at a slow speed, it froze for a second then popped it right open!!! Super easy to use, just press the one button at the top and it goes the rest! It took 2 AA batteries and since I won’t be using it daily I’m sure those batteries will last awhile! There is a small amount of whining noise that sounds while it’s working but it’s so minor, main thing it does what it’s made to do!
Whoever thought of this is genius and must’ve had a hard time opening jars as well. I am very relieved that these are a thing!! I no longer need to ask for help or struggle!! The cost was so worth my independence! Thank you and I hope this helps anyone out there.. if you struggle with jars this is all you need.

This gadget is a wonderful invention. We opened a few different sizes of containers, and it worked like a charm. It's bigger and bulkier than expected and requires a good-sized space to store it in. (Anything coming in contact with the on button will set it off.) I hope it lasts, because it's a useful kitchen item for our aging population.

This lid opener is wonderful. I'm a senior citizen, and I no longer worry that my very old, weak hands can't open huge jars of peanut butter or small jars of minced garlic. This thing far surpasses my expectations. I highly recommend this for people with small, weak hands. I could not be happier!

Great device for those who suffer with carpal tunnel. A must have!

I love this opener if I didn’t have it I would be unable to open any jar because of my arthritis it’s like my best friend in the kitchen

Open many size jars, maybe as small as baby food jars, to large jars.
