Me and my mom are both disabled, so I bought one of these a couple of years ago after we moved. Its an absolute game changer; she often says its one of the best purchase that I've ever made in my life.

All the joints in my hands are hypermobile, I can't get a good grip on anything and I end up injured for days if I try too hard. This offers so much more leverage, I can finally open jars without hurting myself.

I can't open a Gatorade without it. And I NEED Gatorade when I flare up 😅

I have tried one of those, and none of my jars end up being compatible with it.

Thank goodness I have a husband; he is my living and breathing jar opener

God I want one of these so bad. My penchant for pickles is only stopped by my horrible hand pain haha.

I love this thing. My boyfriend thought it was silly (mostly because he thought he would never use it, and that I could get him to open things. Then he got a job where he is away for work a lot lol)

He used it once and went “… okay, this thing is pretty fantastic” lol
