Lid opener »Moby-Dick«

My grip strength isn't what it used to be, so this little gadget has been a lifesaver in the kitchen. The extra leverage it provides makes even the most stubborn bottle tops twist off without a struggle.

My wrist surgery last spring made jar lids my nemesis, but this thing’s extra grip and leverage have me opening everything from pasta sauce to pickles without help. The leverage is the real deal—even the tightest lid gives up after one twist.

The leverage from that wide grip is a total game-changer for my arthritic hands—I finally opened a pasta sauce jar that had been sitting on the counter for weeks. It’s small enough to toss in the drawer, and the rubbery teeth really bite into the lid without slipping.
