You shouldn't feel helpless in the kitchen, which is why our family invented this lid opener in 1977 - making the kitchen easy again. Our brand is new on this marketplace in August 2019, but not new to helping people. And we're confident you or someone you care about will never struggle opening another lid again. We think it's also worth noting that The Grip makes for a spectacular gift! Could be a friend, a parent, a spouse, or grandparent with weak hands. Maybe they suffer from arthritis, carpal tunnel, or another disability? Or maybe you just want to treat yourself. Whoever that person you care about is, The Grip is the gift that keeps on giving.
