EZ Off Jar Opener for Seniors - Under Cabinet Jar Openers for Weak Hands, Easy Grip, Arthritis jar opener, One Handed Gadgets & Bottle Opener - Essential Kitchen Gadgets for Home Assistance - White

This is such a handy gadget! I often struggle to open jars and bottles, so I installed this right under a kitchen cabinet — and I use it almost every day. It’s slim, discreet, and not at all an eyesore, which I really appreciate. It grips securely and makes opening stubborn jars effortless. The edges are a little sharp, so I avoid using it on reusable lids like my Hydrojug, but for standard bottles and jars, it works perfectly. I love that I can finally open things on my own, first try, without asking for help or hurting my hands. Such a simple, effective tool that makes a big difference!

Easy to install, easy to use, and works like a charm on bottle and jar caps. The grip on the opener holds the item securely and saves my hands. I purchased it on the recommendation of a friend who has a weak grip and said this made opening things easy for her. I wish I had gotten it sooner.

Bought this product for my wife who has trouble opening jars. This product is FANTASTIC! I've had some jars that I couldn't budge and this device opened them with ease. I would definately purchase this product again!

So easy to use. A game changer if you need a product like this. Normalizes life as brings the jot of kitchen jar opening back. Recommended after I used the hand held jar opening products that were still a task to use, This is fast and easy. The only draw back it cuts into the plastic tops and creates blurs.

Bought this for my mother because she can't get a good grip on tight jars and can never get them open. SHE LOVES IT. She now feels independent and feels like she doesn't need her husband's help for every little thing that she needs to open. no noise, easy to install and works with any size jar. she has arthritis in her hands and opens things with ease. GREAT PRODUCT!

I first spotted a jar opener essentially like this EZ Off under-cabinet opener - although quite different in its construction details - in some home store way back in the early 1980s, thought it looked promising, bought it and installed it in my then-home, and found it to work amazingly, wonderfully well. It totally grips the jar lid, allowing the user just to hold and turn the jar, using two hands if necessary, which turns out to be marvelously easy. Now, almost 40 years later, and in a different house, I didn’t see that same opener for sale any more, but saw and bought this essentially similar EZ Off. And it works as well overall as my old original, hooray! However, I am pretty sure that my old original, similar opener had one very interesting, significant difference: This EZ Off opener, and the one main, current, extremely similar competitor opener, both have two very thin, saw-toothed gripper blades, about 1/8th of an inch apart. Whereas I think I recall that my old opener had only one toothed blade, but individually much thicker. I’d guess that the two thinner blades on the current models provide a more certain, no-fooling bite/grip on the lid than the one old thicker blade, because the knife-thin blades are wicked sharp, better able to bite into the lid. But I’d also guess that it’s the thinner blades that cause this EZ Off, and probably too the similar current competitor, to tear very thin gouges in the out-sides of the jar lids, especially metal, producing small, sharp, jagged burrs on the sides of the jar lid, where you can then hardly avoid slightly jabbing and tearing your fingers on them, when you go to close the lid, or if you then try to re-open the jar by hand. The resulting skin tears aren’t likely to be more than superficial, since the jagged edges this opener digs into the sides of the jar lid are small and shallow - but they are ragged, sharp and nasty, and they produce very real skin tears that do hurt a bit. Whereas I am pretty darn sure that my old original similar opener, with a single, thicker blade, didn’t cut any such rips into the jar lids. But it probably also didn’t quite grip the lid entirely so incredibly well and easily as this double-thin-blade EZ Off either. I don’t honestly remember such detail from back then, but I suppose I probably on occasion had to push the jar lid a little more firmly into that old opener to get it to grip so it could be opened. It might be that you can try to minimize this tearing up of the jar lid edges by trying to be gentle in pushing the jar lid into the opener and turning it - although, if you push it in too little, you could easily instead create the very problem you’re trying to avoid, setting up the lid to slip/slide and thus be cut up by the opener blades because it’s not being held firmly enough. Your damage may vary. If I had a choice of the old, thick-blade version vs. the current, double-thin-blade models, I would probably choose the older, thick-blade version. I would probably prefer to, on occasion, have to press the jar lid a little harder into the opener than have jagged nicks cut into the sides of the lid. But that’s just my preference. And I don’t currently seem to have the choice at present anyway, it looks like only this double-thin-blade style is currently made and sold. Oh well. Still a pretty darn good jar opener. Just keep in mind to watch out for the small, sharp cuts that may be sliced into the sides of the jar lid by this opener. In rating this EZ Off opener, I would take off a half star anyway for its sometime cutting up my jar lids and thereby my fingers. But since half stars aren’t accepted, I reckon I’ll be nice, round back up to 5 stars, at least for now.

Works like a charm Need a second for new home

The EZ Off Jar Opener is a fantastic tool for seniors or anyone who struggles with opening jars. Its under-cabinet design is super convenient and very light, saving counter space and keeping it out of the way when not in use. Installation is a breeze, and once it's set up, opening jars becomes effortless. What makes the EZ Off Jar Opener stand out is its simple, yet effective, design. It grips the lid tightly, allowing you to twist it open with minimal effort. This is especially helpful for those with arthritis or limited hand strength. If you're looking for a reliable and easy-to-use jar opener, the EZ Off is definitely worth it's weight in gold, and definitely should be considered. This is still a manual tool, which means that it still requires the user to turn the jar themselves (aka no noise, does not need batteries, etc.)! It takes the physicality of opening a jar from a 10 to like a 3, so if you need it reduced even further, you might need to look into a different jar opener (something a bit more mechanical or automated maybe?)

A mí no me funciona. Los dientes de metal sólo raspan las tapas de los frascos. Lo intenté con tapas gruesas y delgadas y pasó lo mismo; no lo abrió, se deslizó y raspó la tapa. Los dientes de metal me parecen peligrosos si se resbala la mano. Falta agarre; con orillas de silicón tal vez hubiera funcionado porque el diseño general es bueno.

The tool is very weak it can’t open new sealed jars covers and always slips over and the gear teeth came out from its place Don’t buy it

Really happy with this purchase, we open everything from water bottles to large pickle jars - it has opened anything and everything even sticky honey or glued on bbq sauce jars previously opened but stuck easily. Every house should come with one of these LOL. Only wish I had found it sooner!

I bought one of these in Canada and liked it so much that I sent one to one to my brother in England. Well designed for us people with arthritis. It fits under a drawer - out of the way but always handy. Great , buy one without hesitation.

My wrist not strong enough after injury so this is the game changer, I tried to just use the sticker and actually strong enough that doesn’t have to drill
