4.0 out of 5 stars Review Strong Boy Jar Opener, August 1, 2010

This is a useful item. Some coordination is required to hold the forward part of the handle and rear part at the same time while starting to tighten it, but it grips very well and makes lid removal easy. It can also be used to hold the jar while you turn the lid by hand or with another opener.

This item is the Strong Boy 2, which is made of plastic. That is why the price has come down. The original, I believe was aluminum with a steel band.

Opens jars with little effort. I really like the adjustable strap that opens both large and small bottles of any size that will fit in the strap. Easy to adjust.
