Been very useful for opening very stubborn jars with stuck lids. Since my household likes to use glass jars for food prep we have come across a jar or two that requires serious oomph to open them. This tool has eliminated any worry of having some food go bad simply because we could not open certain jars.

I love the fact that it adjusts to so many different sizes of lids. The first time I used it I was impressed at how easily it worked. Also, it doesn’t damage the lids like the metal one I’m replacing.

I paid $9 for this to help out my wife who has been having trouble with some jars these days. Before I get started: If you have had any experience with a good strap wrench like those used in an auto shop, you know they are designed to wrap tightly around the outer edge of an lid or other object; establishing a tight frictional grip that grabs around the ENTIRE outer-surface that will have next to no chance to slip. Once the outer grip is established, this allows the handle (which extends far away from the center of the lid) to be pushed counter-clockwise against the trapped lid; exerting tremendous torsion to even the most stubborn seal. A good strap wrench will use torsion to focus your hand strength on rotating the lid in ways that would embarrass a full-grown, well motivted gorilla trying to open the jar using the standard five-finger-twist approach.UNFORTUNATELY...The strap on this wrench appears to be un-woven synthetic fibers wrapped in neoprene rubber. As soon as any torque is applied, the strap STRETCHES. And as it stretches, a good part of the total leverage against then lid is immediately lost. The strap should not stretch AT ALL. Rather is should grip firmly and transfer all the leverage from the handle toward forcing the the rotation of the lid. As such, this will particular wrench which I am reviewing WILL work on some snugly sealed jars, but it simply won't budge the truly touch jars as much of the power is lost as the rubberized strap stretches...instead of directing it against the lid.To make matters worse, the strap is WAY too short. We have been seeing more and more plastic snack jars at grocery stores these days filled with things, like various nuts, peanut-butter filled pretzels and other snacky foodstuffs. These common plastic jars frequently have lids who's diameter can be 5 or more inches, so folks can dip their hand into the open jar once its open. Because of the larger lids, I actually had to modify this wrench (by stiching on a leather extension to end the original strap) so that once the strap is positioned on one of these jar lids, you can still have enough strap material left to pull on to establish a good strong grip.lastly, the pressure clamp that creates the necessary friction against the strap to hold it in place is made of (surprise, surprise) plastic, and is afixed to the body handle by a single metal non-threaded peg. If the strap is not kept between the clamp & body at all times, this peg simply falls out, and the clamp falls apart as well. Its just silly.This device is worth far less then $9. Shop elsewhere and thank yourself.Can this particular strap wrench help open some jars? Yes, it absolutely can. But it will fail on the truly difficult ones... so what is the point? This device gives strap-wrenches a very bad name.Unbelievingly, in our case I picked-up got a full-sized strap wrench from a hardware store. Admittedly, Its comically big sitting in our kitchen tool drawer... but there has not been a jar my wife has not been able to conquer with EASE since she started using it instead. The full-sized wrench ran me $29. But the lesson here is, I'd rather pay 3x as much for an ungainly tool that actually WORKS, then buy a cute Chinese plastic toy of a tool, that will likely just become landful after it proves its lack of usefulness when it is needed the most. SURE... It seems to handle the average jar of spaghetti sauce, as well as jars of grape jelly pretty well But beyond that, this tool is cheep and gives all strap-wrenches bad names.Shop a bit longer. I am sure there are better options to be found.

You need another set of hands in order to use it.

We set this up correctly, tried to open a jar, and it snapped. Unfortunately did not use it within the first month after purchasing, so no chance for a refund. Very disappointed with the lack of quality.
