Progressive had canners in mind when they designed the One Handed Jar Lifter. When jars need to be lifted out of the boiling water, making them hot and dangerous to handle, the Jar Lifter from Progressive offers textured non-slip gripper edges, allowing for a secure grip which makes it so much easier to remove the hot, wet jars safely from the boiling water. The curved handles give a comfortable grip. The Jar Lifter is spring-loaded for an easy and convenient one-handed canning operation.
