As a disabled person, I so appreciate the way that he examines these products through the lens of accessibility & ease of use for people who don’t have perfect motor control & function. I really like this series and will look forward to seeing more in the future!
No connection to them, just gifted some stuff from them for my grandmother; www.gigtforeningen.dk/webshop/ Artheritisunion (spelled?) is the website, they sell a lot of good designed items.
Same. I really hope they find a jar opener that doesn't suck. That's my biggest struggle, especially with large jar lids that I can't wrap my fingers around very well.
@@xfortunesquex I have one, its just a cheap prolly 10 dollar item max. It lifts the jar up from its place, basically a wedge you put under the lid-edge and push. Beats having to get a cloth or using a fork hehe.
I love how he mentions the fact that many of those tools are good for people with disabilities instead of usual "lol i can do it 5x faster with a knife" many reviewers seem to do. Big props.
Given his career in product design, it’s not surprising, but definitely refreshing. He is well aware of the role of some of these devices in a way many don’t. The more strange kitchen devices might seem pointless to the general population, but allow the disabled and elderly to live a more independent life by bringing everyday tasks back in to their ability. I’m glad to see how he points this out, too.
As someone with a lack of mobility in one hand and looking into some one handed products, its bin helpful seeing a few or these. No one really knows how to teach you to cut one handed or perform certain actions, I mean I got crafty and figured it out in most cases but the more my hand hurts the more I find myself wishing I had one handed devices lol
It also depends on the product they are testing. For instance, you get Gordon Ramey or Jamie Oliver in to test knives, you are asking how they measure up for fully abled chefs and would not give them an accessibility tool. Maybe a Madeline, but still, they are there for their professions, so they would observe it not just as how effective it would be for the common man, but how dangerous the design might be for a line chef to use.
@@RayoPelayo he tipped the egg shell up a little too soon. The shell is thin enough that it doesn't take more pressure than the weight of the yoke to pierce it (some even use it for this effect), though I do believe he did this by mistake.
The thing I like about the mechanical can opener is that it's more of an accessibility tool and Dan mentions that. While it is slower it's gonna make life a whole hell of a lot easier for grandma with arthritis.
I reallyreally like that he gives his reasons for being fussy, like it doesn't feel like he's searching for something to comment about or find a flaw in, he's giving his honest opinion and reasons plussss educating on why the changes must be a certain way
Cassy Sida yeah and he does something most designers think about, people with hand difficulties and can’t do stuff like other people. It’s great it shows people who are struggling that people like him care :)
An egg cracker and an egg seperator are seperate devices. For most applications you can just use the halves of the shell to seperate the yolk, but there are cases where that's not a good idea and it's nice to have an egg seperator. (Like when you don't intend to cook the yolks, so you don't want to contaminate the yolk with the outside and edge of the shell, which most people don't clean.
@@maszamap3888 It's not very common to separate eggs in a daily life and most people (even chef) rather practice a skill to separate eggs than rely on simple gadgets, that's imo
So basically the company that makes Coco Jack should start a forestry brush cutting tool company, by an influx of Machete stock and then Rebrand. A complicated process to solve a simple problem, I'm sure they'd make billions! 😁
"there's going to be a lot of banging" "get a straw and a friend and just suck it down" "let's see if I can grab this and start whacking away" "okay, that's coming up" "my left hand wasn't whacking as hard as my right hand" "I can squeeze this as hard as possible, but with a slippery hand it just wiggles around" He knew.
i was so shocked to hear him say that because he was JUST talking about ppl with arthritis, but he didn't consider ppl who only have use of one hand? cracking an egg with one hand is hard
not to mention he says there’s no reason for the product to exist when 2 mins before he talks about how he help design an egg cracker...delusional guy 😂
@@sophiewang4205 my first thought was too: this is useless. But then I thought if was a shaky old granny who lost a hand while trying to defend my cat from the neighbors dog and still would like to bake some cookies for my grandkids an egg opener like this could be a very useful assistive devices.
I noticed that too, plus he destroyed the yolk, and for some reason it took longer to do it with the device when a minute earlier the process was done in like 3 seconds.
so happy to see that he was reviewing these through a lens of disability! so many gadgets aren't made to be used by able bodied people, I'm glad that he recognized that and kept it in mind with the redesign. also, props to the editor for the quotes, some of them were gold
Can you go over some items designed by Dan and have him discuss why he went with a certain design and maybe discuss some of the prototype issues he ran into
Chavvy I like this guy's presentations (I think this is his second one), and I hope they continue this series with him, even if it's occasionally. I hope gadget-makers implement his improvements, too.
@Adventist PewDiePie kowtows to alt-rightists. Minecraft is an actual good game. You seem to forget your manners. How about you shove your assumptions into a box and send them away. Good day.
my favourite thing about this is he emphasizes accessibility. people like alton brown complain about "unitaskers" and people often make fun of these things, but they are often very useful to people with disabilities. I like to say if you're thinking "who would need this? just do it the normal way", imagine you have a disability that makes it so you have a weak grip, limited mobility, or puts you in an awkward position to the counter. Many of these gadgets allow disabled people to live more independant lives, and this guy helps make that possible!
I love the Handy Can Opener. It hasn’t failed me once. It does turn off by itself, it just goes past the starting point to make sure it’s properly cut.
I have an electric can opener but mine produces metal shavings, also not fun to have them sticking deep in my finger, will change to a normal one again
@@PDAWG1399 Yeah nothing wrong with being weird. My hands used to be too soft because i used an acidic shampoo for psoriasis. Which I thought was weird for a guy. They're still softer than they should be but I've roughed them up a bit now that I've been climbing. Where I live men often get judged for having soft hands. Kind of silly.
@@cxx23 I don't care for calloused hands , but I don't really care at all . HOWEVER if I was going to choose who's hands were touching my skin , I'd choose someone with soft hands
@@PDAWG1399 Of course! That definitely goes without saying. I have callouses now and they're just scratchy enough to be annoying. That's probably why it's mostly men judging other men on that issue. Though my girlfriend has callouses as well but she gets the best of both worlds for some reason. Her skin has toughened up from climbing, but they still feel soft to the touch.
I always appreciate the fact he is mainly thinking about the use for people with dexterity issues, most of these are novel but sometimes they really help people who cant use manual openers/gadgets
I have a 1" cut on my finger right now from opening a can with a manual can opener; it's deep and hurts with even the slightest pressure, making it painful to even hold a fork normally. I'm buying that can opener.
@@vroomlucas hi yeah it did. It left a nearly inch long scar where my finger bends, it's kinda hard to see. Got a different can opener that opens from the side instead of the top since then too but still don't have this one yet lol.
For the cocojack, a good improvement is to make the cross section of the handle oval and not circular, this makes easier to feel the hammer orientation. (The same thing is really popular in swords handles because it's a great way to know where the blade is without having to look at it)
Devin Oggeri ... whereas I'm actually left-handed that way, as well as for dealing cards, and washing eating & cooking utensils. But I'm right-handed for nearly everything else, including washing bowls, plates, glasses, etc. 😁
Coconut sellers in my area take an average thirty seconds to open up the fruit. It depends on buyer traffic really. They're quite friendly and are usually willing talk to you for a while :)
And I think that he mus reversed it, so de L shape of the rubber grab the bottom of the lid not the top, and it will make it stay at place and not as slippery as he's doin
Wait a minute, the speed does matter. The gadget requires more strength since it's slower. As we saw in the video, he was faster using his hands, than the gadget, thus why the gadget isn't for people with less strength
@@lastanonymousperson you do need to be able to grip the lid though, so for people with something like arthritis or who only have the use of one hand it is really difficult to open it even if it's loose
Dan is one of the most engaging people that I have ever seen on video. I have that jar opener and I like it. I keep it on the counter when using it (for better leverage.) I have had to put a rubber band around the side of the lid of a particularly stubborn jar for more leverage, so agree with the material needing to be less slippery or smooth.
I’ve seen the egg cracker used in server special needs program where most of the students wouldn’t be able to crack and egg without it when they do cooking activities
Nah dude. They know all this stuff, they were mostly cutting costs. For these types of gadgets it's not about practicality, it's about novelty vs cheapness
I gotta admit, watching these videos give me more appreciation for well designed things, and being young, spry, and able bodied, so I don’t need these sort of things. I wish things were designed better, for people who aren’t as able bodied being kept in mind, but hopefully as more people watch, and learn, when they go out into the world, they’ll keep these people in mind with what they buy, what they support, and maybe even what they create themselves.
I really love that he thinks of all the people that have a disability. I study medecine and we learn about the disease and handicaps they may cause but not in a very practical way. After seing the series a few days ago I found myself looking at what could be improved in the things you find in the hospital that are here to help the patient such as beds, wheelchairs, canes or even self medication devices and most often then not they are well thought of but some may require a few adjustments for the prices they cost.
him: "there's no real reason to buy this" me:*scrolls back to when he cracked an egg by hand and got shells in the bowl and failed to separate the yolk*
muskilh About 18-20 years ago, I bought a Campbell's (the soup makers) safety electric can opener that worked similar to the one in the video, except it had handles on it, similar to a manual can opener. It opened cans safely; one of the first ones I saw on the market. It lasted about 10 years, but sadly, it wasn't available when I wanted/needed to buy another one. I have a Zyliss Magic Can manual safety one now that's been working ok; it sure isn't that nice Campbell's one, though.
@@strivingformindfulness2356 yea things made in the past lasted longer, they may not look as advanced in terms of build but they were made to last at least
@Roderick storey yea that's and true and detailed interesting example lol. Yep profits and margins go up quality goes down. Technology advances but the majority are just flashy or cost savings like you explain and few are safety or usability improvements
@Roderick storey very true. From my understanding there used to be s culture of repairing and maintaining thing but now the culture is to just throw and replace, which coincidentally leads to higher repeat sales
Yes, the jar opener is 1/5. I got that jar opener because I have dexterity and strength problems and sometimes no one is around to help me open things. Alas, that slipping issue made it virtually useless for me as I can't squeeze it tight enough. If only they'd consulted Dan about their product! The sound of coconut being pried open is awesome. Too bad I don't eat a lot of coconuts. Haha.
Life hack: Use a rubber kitchen glove to grab onto the lid with a better grip. You don't even need to put it on, just use it like a grabbing cloth. It's useful because it is something cheap you probably already have in your kitchen.
My hands struggle a lot with normal can openers, the twisting and gripping just ends up too painful and I get frustrated.. I'm grateful for experts like Dan who do this amazing work so I can keep up my love of cooking 🥰
13:00 So true, I had brain surgery at 31 on 2/1/21 and lost my ability to write and walk. Everything that gives you a little function can be a big blessing

i came here to make a jojo reference but i found some already. yare yare daze.
Wryyyyyyyyyyy
you thought you were watching a kitchen gadget video, but it was I, Dio!
At 1:25 love how he said grab a straw for two IF YOU HAVE A FRIEND 😂
“It’s fun to break into things.” Quote from every burglar ever.
I love how comfortable watching him is, he's adorable))
I could watch a whole series of these. He's so informative and sensitive! Plus he knows how to have fun.
Dan is one of the most engaging people that I have ever seen on video. I have that jar opener and I like it. I keep it on the counter when using it (for better leverage.) I have had to put a rubber band around the side of the lid of a particularly stubborn jar for more leverage, so agree with the material needing to be less slippery or smooth.
i found these videos randomly and now i’m obsessed. i think i only have 2 videos left to watch 😭
I freaking love this man. And his inclusivity. And his intelligence. And his jokes. And his all-around amazingness.
It's funny how serious Dan is all the time. He is polite and genuine but at the same time never smiles😂
*spills coconut water*
*50 kabillion seconds later*
Him: WHOA!
kabillion isnt a number
CallMeFeliks lol it’s a made up number to show how long it took don’t be such a Karen :/
Netflix : Are you still watching?
The girl on the couch : 0:46
My grandma had the can opener, she loved it for opening canned food for her pets. She had arthritis
I love that you are testing for people with grip/hand disabilities! It's really kind and helpful.
"It's just as easy cracking an egg by hand"
Said after making a mess trying to crack an egg and spilling eggshells in the pan
This guy is brilliant, more of him, please.
The if you have a friend bit killed me, I feel so called out
“My left wasn’t whacking as hard as my right hand “
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I also do a left-handed oil test. I like to call it 'the stranger'
Isn't the stranger when you sit on your hands until you can't feel them and then look away? 😶
@@Mr_Cheng
Some oils numb
Yes I know it sounds stupid but they do 😂
An excellent test.
I’ve seen the egg cracker used in server special needs program where most of the students wouldn’t be able to crack and egg without it when they do cooking activities
Right, it's an adaptive device but he's saying it has severe flaws there as well.
It’s not good if you have hand issues or grip issues. When my hands had grip and pinch problems, I would never be able to squeeze that handle
Takes me very little time to crack an egg one handed however I cook a ton so that helps.
Update I can crack a dozen eggs in 27 seconds.
He should have his own channel I love this guy! He’s the most natural teacher I’ve ever witnessed.
Goliath.. Nice name!
You know, I'm not sure how much I like these videos, but the engineer guy is great.
I love how wholesome this man is
Companies be like: Write that down! Write that down!
Nah dude. They know all this stuff, they were mostly cutting costs. For these types of gadgets it's not about practicality, it's about novelty vs cheapness
Guy: Okay, grap a straw! Or two, if you have friends.
Me: *cant relate*
@Adventist grab
@Adventist grab
his shirt makes me feel like reviewing albums negatively
Gary Davis pretty good kitchen gadget review but I don’t quite get why he said a coco jack would be more suited to crack open orphans skulls
NOT GOOD
I give this cocojack a strong 2 to a weak 3
@@secretfaith8 When did he say that? I must have somehow missed that comment.
Canthony Handtano here and this jar opener is NOT GOOD
I gotta admit, watching these videos give me more appreciation for well designed things, and being young, spry, and able bodied, so I don’t need these sort of things. I wish things were designed better, for people who aren’t as able bodied being kept in mind, but hopefully as more people watch, and learn, when they go out into the world, they’ll keep these people in mind with what they buy, what they support, and maybe even what they create themselves.
I really love that he thinks of all the people that have a disability. I study medecine and we learn about the disease and handicaps they may cause but not in a very practical way.
After seing the series a few days ago I found myself looking at what could be improved in the things you find in the hospital that are here to help the patient such as beds, wheelchairs, canes or even self medication devices and most often then not they are well thought of but some may require a few adjustments for the prices they cost.
him: "there's no real reason to buy this"
me:*scrolls back to when he cracked an egg by hand and got shells in the bowl and failed to separate the yolk*
Also, people who only have one hand?
@@KirillBry you can crack an egg one handed. more or less the product could be for people who have streangth/shakey hands
@@crankthatrebecca12 its better if your using a recipe that requires you to separate the yolk and egg whites aswell
The can opener is good but they break down often. My mom's gone through a few of them
muskilh
About 18-20 years ago, I bought a Campbell's (the soup makers) safety electric can opener that worked similar to the one in the video, except it had handles on it, similar to a manual can opener. It opened cans safely; one of the first ones I saw on the market. It lasted about 10 years, but sadly, it wasn't available when I wanted/needed to buy another one. I have a Zyliss Magic Can manual safety one now that's been working ok; it sure isn't that nice Campbell's one, though.
@@strivingformindfulness2356 yea things made in the past lasted longer, they may not look as advanced in terms of build but they were made to last at least
@Roderick storey yea that's and true and detailed interesting example lol. Yep profits and margins go up quality goes down. Technology advances but the majority are just flashy or cost savings like you explain and few are safety or usability improvements
@Roderick storey very true. From my understanding there used to be s culture of repairing and maintaining thing but now the culture is to just throw and replace, which coincidentally leads to higher repeat sales
@Roderick storey was kinda being sarcastic and I think that's enough education for one day lol 😂😂
This guy radiates Carla Lalli-Music energy
Yes! Especially when he talks about the disadvantage of cracking eggs on the side of the pan, I immediately thought of Carla!
I agree
Yes, the jar opener is 1/5. I got that jar opener because I have dexterity and strength problems and sometimes no one is around to help me open things. Alas, that slipping issue made it virtually useless for me as I can't squeeze it tight enough. If only they'd consulted Dan about their product!
The sound of coconut being pried open is awesome. Too bad I don't eat a lot of coconuts. Haha.
Life hack: Use a rubber kitchen glove to grab onto the lid with a better grip. You don't even need to put it on, just use it like a grabbing cloth. It's useful because it is something cheap you probably already have in your kitchen.
My hands struggle a lot with normal can openers, the twisting and gripping just ends up too painful and I get frustrated.. I'm grateful for experts like Dan who do this amazing work so I can keep up my love of cooking 🥰
>Putting oil all over your hand and tries to open a jar
this guy's a madlad
ZuTu I know you're joking but honestly that what it feels like for me bc I have dexterity problems.
(I probably rolled a 1 lmao)
Videos with this guy is one of few I watch from the start to the end
yay another one, i love this guy
‘the more destructive you are in your mind, the better off you may be’
*stares into my soul specifically*
My favorite jar opener is a silicone bowl cover for putting it in the microwave. It’s flexible and sticky enough to hold the jar. Love them.
'The more destructive you are in your mind, the better off you may be.'
Cue blank emotionless face
At 4:38 my phone got to 15% and my screen got dark i can't explain how scared i was
Lol. Reminds me of that one time I heard thunder the exact instant I flipped a light switch.
"probably because my left hand wasnt wacking enough like my right hand"
I FELT THAT
13:00 So true, I had brain surgery at 31 on 2/1/21 and lost my ability to write and walk. Everything that gives you a little function can be a big blessing
Canned beans: *wont open*
Mom: "honey, can you get the canned bean opening device-inator 6000 of doom™?"
Did I really just watch a guy talking about kitchen gadgets for more then 16 minutes instead of doing my homework.... yes, yes I did.
We Asian don’t use chef knife to open coconut. We typically use a cleaver. Sometimes a machete.
He explained in the video though why he used a chef's knife... Under the assumption that not everyone will have a machete at home
Echel Aberin
So not a cleaver?
Saying "we asians" makes me asume you mean every single asian, which is far from true.
12:51
When you're in college and can't subtract anything more than 3 digits long
6:27 The very first product that I saw is Perfect
"This time I'm really gonna oil both hands" He says, having absolutely oiled both hands every single video
Lemme just say this man is horrendous at cracking eggs and separating them.
He's so cute i want him to be my grandpa/best friend
5:10 let me tell u the easiest way to crack a walnut
1. Take a walnut😂
2. Keep it in your door(the place where hinges are there)
3. Slowly close the door..
4. It's the best way to do it.. .!
5. TRY IT YOURSELF 😂😂
Mom taught me that trick 😂😂😂
2:42...
Man... I'm just too immature to take anything serious 😂😂😂
Gadget: *Doesn't have curved handle*
Dan: "So you have chosen...death?"
And when nothing wants to open up, throw a grenade.
