Review on Stainless Steel Kichwit Jar Opener with Bonus Bottle Opener Keychain by Dave Giri

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Seems to be a good product though.

At first glance it looked strong and durable. However, it broke after a few uses! It seems that there is too much play in the handle's shaft and its seating area. This leads to chatter which causes excessive "twisting" of the gear meshing with the internal teeth. The end result is that the teeth slip up and over the gear and thus lose their engagement. Result? It turns itself. I managed to reassemble Humpty Dumpty and install the locking ring in the recessed part of the handle stock. It's more stable now and hopefully won't fall apart again. It's a shame the designers didn't foresee this. No, I will not buy this product again.

Pros
  • Positive only
Cons
  • No insurance
