Looks like a handy dandy gadget that I can keep with all my other (dusty) handy dandy gadgets in a side drawer in my kitchen.

Looking forward to the next multi-tasker – this one wouldn’t even displace my no longer talking Homer Simpson bottle opener.

a better gift for someone who has everything is an rss feed subscription to unclutterer.

Does it still count as a gift if it’s free?

This is the gift to give when someone has everything!

Looks like a fun thingy, but it can’t open cans. (the ones without the pull ring)

You know what works really well for opening stuck jars/seized taps, etc.? A belt. I’m serious. Cinch it tight and twist. Works great, thought it can be a little hard on the belt.

I agree with Gabriel. This would probably be great for people with arthritis but, for me, it would never be used for anything other than opening beer bottles, and I already have a bottle opener on my corkscrew, so I don’t see the need to add one more item to my kitchen.

Honestly, I can do all of those tasks with a normal can opener that cost me around $3 and my hands – and they also open cans and wine bottles! Why buy an extra gizmo?

If you can’t open a jar, just use a large knife. You hit the lid in a downwards motion, with the corner of the knife near the handle.

Thank you for posting this. A good jar opener is a godsend; one that also gets water bottle tops is a great multifunctional tool for me or anyone with weak hands.

I see one of these in my future.

With a little extra thought, I’m sure they could have made it a nutcracker as well.

This is a great tool. I love it and think it meets all my criteria of manliness. Just one question…does it come in different colors? As a guy, I really don’t care, but since the wife still wants to make sure things coordinate, and this tool is big and full of color, she is going to want to make certain she can get it in red…
good stuff…

If they had included the feature of being able to open those blasted poly-prop “clamshells”, I’d by one.

Is this this unitasker a day early? It does one thing someone might need and 5 things that overlap the basics.

Erin, I really think you blew it on this one.

I have small and pretty weak hands, and often require help in opening almost all of these items shown. So I think this looks terrific.

I had this, it’s great, but it broke in 2 months while I was taking the cap off of a beer bottle

I have one (in black) & found it was not helpful in opening jars. The handle is too short & so it still hurts my wrists. I had to buy a different style opener. It is a uni-tasker, but when you can’t open a jar with your hands, then you need it!

It’s missing the most important one though, the can opener. I think if it had that, I would consider it. Especially if somehow you could reverse it to be left handed.

Oh and by the way, all twisty things are harder for someone who is left handed to open since you have to twist it away from you or use your weaker hand.
