Progressive International Prepworks by Progressive Jar Grips Multi-Purpose Lid Openers, Set of 3

I like that it’s flexible, it works well.

With severe arthritis it is difficult for me to grasp small bottle caps & I don't have much strength in my hands these jar & lid openers allow me to open jars & bottles without having to find someone to do it for me

I have RA and intermittent but severe issues with my hands. Opening jars on a good day can be very difficult as I have small hands. I have used these for a variety of uses in the kitchen without issue. In particular, the red grip is extremely useful for easy opening of jars. This set of grips is a worthwhile purchase even if only for the red grip. The blue and the green grips are very thin but get the job done. I have used them for a variety of purposes within the kitchen without issue, including opening stubborn jars. These grips have survived a multitude of uses. Some days my grip is so weak that the grip is doing the majority of the work, and I have yet to have one tear. I did, however, lose one to the dog who used it as a chew toy when I accidentally left it out. The green and blue grips are indeed quite thin and the dog was handily able to chew them to bits. That said, even though they’re thin, I don’t understand the photos of grips that are completely destroyed if people are using them for the kitchen. Kitchen grips should never be used outside of the kitchen because they will most likely not be strong enough, and, most importantly, they will get contaminated and then contaminate your food if you take them back into the kitchen. Grips needed for industrial purposes, i.e., non-kitchen purposes, should be purchased separately and should be much thicker. For the purposes of opening jars and other items in the kitchen, these grips are more than sufficient and are a worthwhile purchase if only for the red grip. I use the red grip regularly and it is extremely thick. I have yet to find any kitchen grips half as good as the red grip and if that means buying two thinner grips along with it then so be it. I highly recommend this purchase, but use them for the purpose for which they are intended.

I love these! They are not heavy duty, but are just what I needed :-)

These are good. A little thin, but still work good.

Opening jars and bottles

My mom had these in the kitchen so I had to get them. They work so well even my husband has used them when he couldn’t get a jar opened. I use the flat on for rolling and opening garlic too so it has dual usages.

Seem to work well

Rubber is too thin so slips a bit when opening bottles. The cup shaped one is much thicker and does the job well.

Does the job perfectly

Bought these for my Mum and have ended up buying them for myself too. Easy to use, easy to clean and store. The red one is great for opening bottles and jars.

I love these jar grips. I bought one many years ago and use it often. I got this set for my daughter but was tempted to steal one of the flat grips as they always come in handy - particularly for taking corks out of Prosecco bottles.My husband likes to think that he is strong enough to open any jars or bottles but they do win occasionally. Nothing has ever beaten my jar grips though.

These were received in great condition and once opened very easy to use, they make life easy when needing to open them jars that won’t budge with bare hands. They work well as I can use the mat to hold the jar and one of the others on the lid.
