Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Oxo Good Grips i-Series Jar Opener
Customer Review: Presto! The jar is ajar!
Summary: 4 Stars
Is your jam lid jammed? Are your pickles in a pickle? Are you holding the mayo just because you can't get it open? Then you need this revolutionary new gizmo from the innovative OXO Good Grips i-series!
The OXO Jar Opener is a sturdy, eight and one-half inch long Y-shaped device filled with a flat piece of stainless steel with sharp teeth along one side. An arrow is carved right into the metal so you'll always know which way to turn when loosening those stubborn lids. A removable non-slip coaster is attached to the steel with a black knob in the center of the Y. The handle is coated with easy-to-grip black rubber, and a hole is cut into the end of it so you can hang the opener on your kitchen wall if you so desire. The device will fit over anything ranging in size from three-quarters of an inch all the way up to four inches, so you can use it on 2-liter soda bottles, giant jars of peanut butter, and everything in between.
To open any jar, just pull the circular pad off of the black knob and place it on the counter. Next, sit the troublesome food container on top of said pad. Place the Good Grips opener on top of the jar and slide it forward as far as it will go. Turn the opener in the direction of the arrow-shaped cut-out while applying forward pressure to insure that those steel teeth are biting the lid as you turn. In most cases, the jar will pop open quite easily, one exception being those soft plastic caps. Occasionally, if you're trying to remove a plastic cap that's on really tight, the teeth will saw a groove into the cap instead of gripping it.
Opening containers with the aid of the OXO Good Grips Jar Opener still requires some degree of effort, but it makes the task a whole lot easier on your hands. This is an essential gadget that no kitchen should be without. It's just too bad it doesn't come in red.
Description of Oxo Good Grips i-Series Jar Opener
No more running jar lids under hot water, banging them on the counter or asking someone for help. The OXO GOOD GRIPS i-Series Jar Opener is the perfect tool for easily opening all size jars from small condiment jars to large tubs of mayonnaise. The innovative base pad reduces the force required to open a jar. Simply place the non-slip base pad under your jar, slide the Jar Opener over the jar lid to engage the stainless steel teeth, and twist counter-clockwise to loosen the lid. The base pad keeps the jar secure on the countertop so you can focus on opening the jar. The wide, contoured handle lets you choke up to apply downward pressure and is non-slip to improve turning leverage. The non-slip base pad securely attaches to the Jar Opener for storage and should be hand washed if needed. The Jar Opener is Dishwasher safe.Can Openers
