We’ve all had that feeling that the things we buy just weren’t made to be opened. And when you have arthritis, items like jars and capped bottles are nearly impossible to open. When you’re having a hard time opening a jar or bottle and your muscular friend or relative is not around to help, don’t be caught alone. We have many different jar openers to choose from.

The jar opener that is right for you depends on how arthritis affects you. Do you have use of both hands? Are there certain movements and twists of the wrists that are particularly painful? These are some things to consider before deciding which jar or bottle opener you wish to use.

For two hands

Easy Grip Jar and Bottle Opener

If you can use both hands to open jars and bottles, the Easy Grip Jar and Bottle Opener will save you quiet a bit of time and effort in the kitchen. The flexible body fits around most jar lid sizes. The smaller section is made for fitting onto water and soda bottles. The serrated edge guarded between the “cat ears” is perfect for tackling those bottles with annoying plastic seals. This three-tools-in-one opener is hard to beat in terms of versatility.

Maddagrip Opener

The Maddagrip Opener is also great when using two hands. This simple, lightweight opener is made to open everything from small vials to large bottles and jars.
