Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Progressive International 6-In-1 Multi Opener
Customer Review: a great kitchen tool
Summary: 5 Stars
Opens any jar or bottle better than my pipe wrench.
We got some more to give as Christmas presents.
Good for the "more mature" consumer, possibly with
arthritis in the hands. An excellant value.
Customer Review: disappointing
Summary: 3 Stars
I've had one of these for less than a year. Already the black rubbery stuff on the outside has started to crack, even though I don't think that part gets much stress. But that is not the main reason I am dissatisfied. I bought this jar opener because I was looking for something to open wide jars, for example my olive jars which are a little over 3 1/4 inches in diameter. I have small hands and have developed arthritis in my left thumb joint. I had hoped this item would grip the jar firmly enough that I wouldn't have to grip as hard as I do with the floppy type rubber jar openers. It has not helped and my thumb bothers me more than usual for several days after opening a jar of olives. The opener is OK for small jars, but with any jar wide enough that I have to use the large end for opening, it does not work easily. It is not very expensive, but the floppy all-rubber jar openers work just as well for me and cost less money.Customer Review: great product!

This opener was given to my husband for his birthday & we use it all the time. What a great idea for several openers all in one!! I ordered two for our son-in-law, who keeps one @ home for himself & our daughter to use & they took the other one to his parents' cottage. Everyone is very impressed with this product; the inventor is a genius!! :)Customer Review: works well;doesn't last forever

I have used this opener for about a year. Big help opening jars. Especially surprised that I use the little hook on the top to open cans with the ring pull top. Makes that task so much easier. When you hook it in and rock it back, the levering action pulls it open with ease.
However, I need to replace the opener now, since the black plastic has broken on the outside of the handles and it doesn't work anymore. Not sure if I'll get the same product again. UPDATE: Bought another one after looking around. Even if I have to replace it, I still like it.
