i got this for my grandma, along with the easi twist jar opener, and they work great together.
because if she's not strong enough to grip the jar, then she's probably not going to be able to grip the lid.
the sologrip holds the jar in place and then the opener provides grip and leverage on the lid.
i considered electronic jar openers like the one touch and the black & decker lids off. from what i read, the one touch seems to break easily and the lids off looks too complicated for someone that old. plus i think it's better for her to use her hands and arms a little.

it's very sturdy and well built. i picked this one over the "spill not jar and bottle holder" because it looked easier to use and the youtube video demonstrated how easy it was to use on a variety of jars.

A few years back i suffered a traumatic brain injury that left the left side of my body weak and hardly able to function. opening jars, soda-pop bottles, bottles, and prescription safety sealed canisters was next to impossible. the one handed jar opener is great and a high quality item that any one in need should get to make their quality of life a bit more manageable! this unit is well worth the investment because the harder you have to twist the container the harder it holds it from spinning away, and you can open things as small as a pill bottle.

I got this for a friend who broke her arm, she used it and it was good, then a year later her mom broke her arm and she used it, and it worked great, and as soon as someone else breaks their arm, this will come handy.

Apparently the Grip on the bottom is very good, easy to use. Only bad thing out of this whole experience was that this simple piece of plastic molding with rubber on the bottom was bloody expensive for me.
