Product Description
A revolutionary new way to open jars. Innovative Swiss engineering tightens this tool's jaws around the cap, even as the jar is being opened, so the opener never slips. The Kuhn Rikon Gripper stays locked on lids and doesn't let go. Place The Gripper over jar lid, rotate turn-knob clockwise to tighten jaws onto lid. Tool locks in place. While holding the jar or bottle securely, grasp the handle and push counter-clockwise to open. Just loosen turn-know to release lid. The Gripper opens threaded caps and lids from 1-inch to 3.5-inches. Works on smooth-sided and grooved caps, too.

 A real life saver March 7, 2008
NWChef (Seattle, Washington United States)
I purchased one of these for my grandmother (who has pretty severe arthritis) a few months ago and everytime we talk she thanks me for this little gadget and tells me what a life saver it is. She used to ask family members to swing by her house just to help open jars and containers. It's amazing that something as simple as this can help her reclaim some independence. The leverage that the lid grips and long lever provide are more than adequate to allow anybody, regardless of strength, to open any jar-top or twist off bottle.

Finally an opener that really works. My husband & I both experienced loss of strength in our hands, and I was getting very frustrated. This was just what we needed. I've spent a small fortune trying other openers, but this one is the very best.

KUHN RIKON THE GRIPPER JAR OPENER is the first time I have found an opener that really works. With arthritis, it is difficult to open any lid, including a ketchup bottle. Gripper has made this chore, no longer a chore. I have not found one jar or bottle that it won't open with such ease. A must for everyone who has problems opening jars.
A Great Product! October 31, 2007

We previously purchased one of these openers for ourselves, and recently purchased this one for my 90 year old father-in-law. We all agree that the opener is great for anyone with limited hand strength or for those jars that just refuse to open without substantial effort.
Works well so far July 8, 2007

Got this recently based on the high percent of positive reviews. Have used it ony a few times and find it to be easy and efficient. I used to have the OXO Good Grips #21181 and was never happy with it.
