It works!!
Seems a bit gimmicky at first but it actually works very well and not just for poo bags! Love that you can attach this to anywhere with a loop. It's super easy to use and works 100% of the time. Great idea.

Surprisingly helpful
I think that if you're a person who doesn't have dry hands, you won't appreciate how great this little accessory is. I keep it on my purse so that i can use it both on dog walks and at the grocery store to open plastic produce bags. No one wants to lick their fingers in the middle of the store while they're handling produce, so this is a fantastic solution.

Great to use if you walk your dog a lot.
Great product to use, the bags always stick together so the bag opener comes in handy. I also use it for opening bags for diapers on the go. These tools are so cool, why didn't i think of it. Its amazing

Cool idea
This is something no one needs but a cute gift. The concept works well but for time sake, I didn’t use it all that much. It does work as described, it helps to get poop bags, grocery bags, produce bags unstuck and can be attached to a leash or purse or key chain.

Easy to use!
I wasn’t sure what to think about this product and was surprised about how helpful it is. I have not used anything like this before. It was easy to use and hassle free. It attached to my leash with no issues. No tangling, no worries and most importantly a good hygienic product.

Mediocre
I like the idea of this but it's not the easiest product. I think it's could be less flimsy. The idea is great and it might work better for other folks. I would pay more for a better quality product. I wouldn't buy it again.

Cool product
This handy little Finger grips are pretty cool to use. They're easy to fit onto your fingers and they certainly do the trick of opening the bag. I had an issue opening a ziploc bag that got cut a little too short and I used these and they worked perfectly. I would recommend issues opening bags.

Nice tool, but mostly a solution in search of a problem
As a dog owner, I can appreciate the problem this tool is trying to solve—the difficulty in opening doggie waste bags on walks. This can be an annoying process depending on the smoothness of the bags or your fingers. This tool is made of silicon and is essentially two textured finger pads that, in theory, allow the user to apply sufficient friction to open the bag when pinched between the two equipped fingers. This allows the bag to easily open, WITHOUT having to lick your fingers, which is kind of nasty if you have to do that more than once on the walk. The tool is definitely portable and unobtrusive, and it straps easily to any key or D-ring thanks to its adjustable attachment system. However, because this is a single-use device, it needs to be PERFECT (alla single-use kitchen gadgets), but unfortunately it is not. The need to have to “put the tool on” AND position the bag just-so kind of undercuts the tool’s usefulness, as well as having to “take it off” in order to pick up the waste (plus you are now juggling your dog, the tool, and your baggies). I found that in the time it took to prep for opening, I could have just used my thumb and forefinger the old way. Is it kind of nasty doing this more than once? Yes, but you can get around this by using different fingers, switching hands, or just re-using the same fingers on subsequent pick-ups. I can honestly say I’ve never found myself wishing I had a tool to open the bags, but I have definitely found myself looking for a device to do the pick-up! So, the tool is a neat idea, but not really enough of a game-changer to warrant regular use on my walks.

Such a simple tool that works great!
Opening these types of bags is so frustrating especially when you are trying to do a quick cleanup, and this little tool helps me open the bags on the first try. It's so easy to use and can hook right onto the bag holder. Genius! This is one of those things you wish you thought of first!

YES!
This is a great product! It easily attaches to my dogs leash and makes it extremely easy to open the poop bags without me having to lick my fingers to get them to open up. I would recommend this to anyone who walks their dog.

Genius
This is one of those products that I absolutely never thought about needing before, but now that I’ve used it once I need to have one for the rest of my life. It makes opening poop bags so easy and is such a small and unobtrusive thing that I never even notice it until I need it. 10/10 would buy again and may use as stocking stuffers for every person with a dog I know.

Clever bag opener
I was skeptical how useful this gadget would be but it really comes in handy. It saves the hassle of having to use a wipe or lick fingers (yuck) to open up annoying produce or doggy bags. Bags open up easily by twisting between your fingers. I like that theres a strap to easily attach to the dog leash or purse and you can throw it in the dishwasher.

Nifty Device!
Great product, I really appreciate this device I received through a Hey, Bullseye review. Light weight and doesn't get in the way. Connect it to leash, purse, belt loop. One of those items that you can change what it’s attached to quickly and with ease. Fingertips slide around easily to quickly open dog bags, even the troublesome ones. Liked knowing that because of the silicone I can wash it or toss it in the dishwasher.

Sweet Paws x BTRBAG Bag Opener Exactly what it says, it helps open those pet 'waste bags' without having to lick your fingers. The flexible, gray colored plastic bag opener can be attached to your leash which means 1 less thing to hold in your hands.

Handy little thing!
I’ve always struggled opening my dog’s waste bag so this has been great to have! It’s so easy to use (no instructions needed!) and it’s small. I like that I can just keep it handy near my dog’s stuff for when I need it. But you can also attach it to anything you want.

So convenient!
Honestly I didn’t think this would be worth it but it ready does save so much annoyance! It’s so easy to use and it hangs on the handle of the leash no problem. I actually get excited to use it when my dog poops now!

Great idea
This is a pretty clever idea for dealing with a common problem of bags not opening. This seems to happen at the worst time too. The waste bags I currently use are fairly easy to open but I've dealt with some that this opener would have been a life saver- sometimes I've never gotten them open and had to double over a bag just to clean up. Avoiding that and the frustration of bags that are hard to open makes this a great value in my opinion. It's not quite "instantly" but this bag opener gets the waste bags open quicker than just my fingers. It adds a little grip by just sliding in your fingers. It even ties on to your leash or (possibly) bag carrier. The package claims the bag opener is hygienic and sustainable. Not sure how mine will stay hygienic but the opener can even go in the dishwasher. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another. I might even buy one just to make sure I have an extra on hand, just in case.
