I've been considering buying a power jar opener as aging and lupus damage has made many containers a real problem. Since I really love my Swing-A-Way can opener, I decided to try this contraption for less than $8 instead. It was a wide choice. This thing works great on both bottle caps and cans. I love the woman's sizing choice that fits. Sometimes I struggle to open soft drink bottles, but this bottle opener neatly solves that problem. It's convenient to use even before my pain meds kick in. The device seems sturdy enough to last a reasonable amount of time. I've had about 20 years of use of one of their can openers so I'm very hopeful. At this price I wouldn't complain if it only lasted a few years. It's not very heavy and the grip is really comfortable. And now the story of a jar of sauce from hell. I love a sweet marinade with Splenda instead of sugar, but the jars are kinda very hard to open. I remember sometimes asking the clerk to solve them at the grocery store, but one day I forgot and none of the fifteen online can opening hacks worked. My neighbor couldn't move. Not a single visitor managed this task. I ended up buying a replacement and didn't forget to solve it at the store. I refused to throw away a perfectly good, if unassailable, spice jar. After purchasing this product I was reminded of this horrible jar sitting on a shelf in my pantry laughing at me. I applied the opener, not expecting anything, but the jar finally opened like it was perfectly normal and not possessed by demons the entire time. Finally victory!
