This releases the pressure inside the jar to make it easy to open.
Buy some for your friends and be a hero.
Looks funny works very well.
Fantastic and cute little jar opener that will save you a lot of frustration September 30, 2009

JarPop is a fantastic little jar opener that everyone who has ever had trouble opening a jar should know about. It's very easy to use and will save you from a sprained hand. Just place it over the lid of a jar, like a beer bottle opener, and lift the handle slightly until you hear a little pop. That's the sound of the vacuum seal breaking. The lid twists right off after that.
One caveat is that it doesn't work with every jar however. There has to be enough of a rim on the lid for the JarPop's lip to grab onto (see photo #2). Jars with tall lids or lids that hug too closely to the jar will not work with the JarPop.
Designed by a Danish company called Brix, you can also find it sold as "JarKey". Construction is sturdy and it's practically indestructible. I've had my banana yellow and crystal orange JarKey for over 10 years. I must admit that the cute design was why I originally bought this. I didn't even know what it was when I saw it in the store. It's very stylish and exhibits that minimalist/functional design that Scandinavians are famous for. It's a cheap and useful addition to every kitchen and makes a nice and unique gift for friends and family.

I was about to get an electric jar opener when I saw this. I was very skeptical that a cheap plastic tool could do the job, but decided to risk it given the low price.
To my amazement, it works as described. Pop, and the lid unscrews easily.
Great Product! May 28, 2007

I have owned this product for quite a few years. It is the greatest for opening vacuum sealed jars. Just lift up slightly until you hear the slight pop when the vacuum releases. Does not damage the lid in any way. This is a must for opening any vacuum sealed jar!
Works just as well as they say it does August 7, 2007

In the two months I've had this jar opener, it's saved my hands at least a half dozen times. A bargain at twice the price.
