I have one like the Good Grips that mounts on the underside of the cabinet, so I can use both hands. Works like a dream. (Dupuytren contracture)

1st thing I noticed was jars seemed to have their seal already broken-2nd thing was those jars can be opened with just about anything- 3st should have used a really tough jar like a pickle jar- I've lots strength in my hands and another problem not addressed is- While a lot of products show opener for the Top- a person still has to be able to very tightly hold onto the bottom. Also a had a V shaped one and the teeth came off- and no it wasn't a cheap plastic one with metal teeth- it was all metal
