The Black & Decker JW200 Lids Off Jar Opener is a thoughtful gift for the elderly and for all those who do not have strong hands.
As folks get older,even something as simple as opening a jar can become quite a challenge. The hands become shaky and lose their strength and grip and stuff goes off the menu because the jars cannot be opened. A good electric jar opener solves the problem. It is like buying a pair of really strong hands! All you do is place a jar in the machine, close the holders on the bottom of the jar, and then lower the top down to the lid. The bottom holds the jar in place and the top engages the lid. Then you push a button and it turns the lid and twists it off. No more banging, prying or using hot water. Let us take a closer look at the The Black & Decker JW200 Lids Off Jar Opener and its variants to see why it would make a perfect gift for grandma.
