You are young, healthy, and strong and only venture into the kitchen to get your beer and, occasionally, to get the ready meal from the freezer to the microwave. You don't need this. That's what you think. You may be wrong and I will tell you why. --For whom-- It is true that the Culinare One Touch Jar Opener is aimed at those whose hand dexterity and/or strength is somehow compromised. That makes you think of the elderly or infirm. Somebody afflicted with arthritis for whom twisting a lid off a standard jar is a struggle. That is actually true. Up to a point. Like that torch that you keep in the house in case of a power failure or the spare key you ...  Read the complete review

I recently discovered two of these little gem in my Nan's kitchen, of all the places (don't ask why she bought two...). She later kindly donated one, in noticing my interest and also told me she had bought it because she always tends to struggle opening jars due to her arthritis and ends up starving. This is a major problem in her eyes especially since she practically lives off pickles. We've all been there, we've all had one of those jar's that must have been sent from hell, to try a saint. Nothing works, be it using rubber gloves, running under a water tap or eventually perhaps bashing it against a table edge - no...just me? Well, one touch jar opener to ...  Read the complete review

In the past when it came to opening tight jar lids Mrs weebill would simply ask me and I would nine times out of ten manage without trouble but as old age catches up with me and my fingers fail to be as strong as they used to we have often seen ourselves stuck trying to open stubborn lids.

Those troubles are all well and truly behind us now though as last year we purchased the fantastic Culinare One Touch Automatic Jar Opener. This is probably the most useful gadget we have ever spent money on, it ...  Read the complete review

The Culinare jar opener is one of those gadgets that you wouldn't imagine ever having a need for, or be of much use. It wasn't until I was looking for gadgets to help me in the kitchen as I was starting to struggle with various tasks, that I found this brilliant gadget that opens jars. No more trapping the lid in a door or prising it open in a vain attempt to get at the food inside. It takes. 4 AA batteries, which last for ages. You simply put it onto the lid of the jar you wish to open, press the button and it clamps itself onto the jar and then the lid. It then exerts enough pressure to twist the lid off the jar and after it succeeds it releases itself from ...  Read the complete review

I bought this jar opener after having injured my arm some while ago, and not having the capacity or strength to open jars by my own, this very useful gadget helped me a lot, as a lot of food come in jars these days! I spent almost 20 pounds on this gadget, which is quite a lot, but then again it`s a great gadget, and I have now passed it on to my grandmother, she finding it very useful and helpful as well!

It opens any lid in no time, even the most difficult and stubborn ...  Read the complete review
