Heavy Duty + Ergonomic Reacher Grabber Tool for Elderly. Guaranteed Best Grabber Reacher Tool with Long Reach Arm Extender. Lightweight Mobility Hand Grip Reaching Picker Upper Aid for Seniors

Full disclosure: I will receive a rebate, making this item less expensive than usual. However, the rebate was NOT in exchange for a review. I just want people to know this is a good item.I really like the way the rubber on the ends is formed. It has made picking up small or flat objects much easier than any other grabber I have used, and I have had many in the years after a spinal injury.The shaft is strong, and seems to hit the sweet spot between being too short, so I must bend to use it, and so long the object feels much heavier than usual. It's also not so long that putting something into my other hand is a stretch.It has a more comfortable handle than others I have used. I'm starting to have some arthritis, so I appreciate the better handle. Luckily, my arthritis isn't severe enough to say whether it's a huge advantage, though.It seems to be of good quality. The string between the handle and grabbing end is thicker than my last one and the whole thing has a good "heft" to it. I felt like I had to worry about my last one snapping if I needed to do something like pick up a damp towel. I don't worry about that sort of thing with this one.Overall, I think I'll stick to this model if It's still around when this one breaks.

Using this tool is a must for me due to disability and I have searched for teachers often. I usually have three, two in the house and one in my car which is a big help atthe market. This particular reacher is able to pick up a book or a paperclip or a pill,It also is a kitchen must for retrieving items from high shelves! That is where I usethe adaptable feature of the grasp end most. As far as sturdiness goes, it seems significantly better than most, used as recommended. All reachers need some careto protect alignment of grabbing jaw, the weakest part of all designs for reachersis the trigger. Not a problem with normal use but don't exceed makers recommendedweight. In my experience the reachers last me at least four years! Don't pass this one up!

I've had a lot of these over the years and no matter how expensive they are, usually they are not good. This one had such great reviews and I really needed another one, so I went ahead and got it. I was expecting it to be a little sturdier from the reviews, but at least it does not have the bend in the middle, so that's a plus. It is easy to close the handle and while I haven't tried it on anything really heavy it does seem to work well on smaller items, which I like. No idea how it will work on a can or something, but honestly I don't believe any of these things can do that well or even at all. Pleased with it so far, especially the ease with which you can pull the trigger handle. So many of these are just too hard to hold on to something with - they are mostly for seniors, so you'd think this would not be the case, but it is. This one is good that way so all in all I give it 5 stars. Only time will tell how it holds up. I'll come back and write an update.July 22, 2019: Back to buy two more. I really need one in every room. I simply could not stand the one I had in the kitchen which had the idiotic bend in the middle which never locked. Now I've got the one I bought in June for the living room in the kitchen, so I need more. Happy with them so far. Lightweight without feeling flimsy and I've knocked it over a bunch of times without any noticeable issues. I have used it to pick up thin and tiny things with good results. One feature that would be good to have on it is a magnet - other versions have this and it is very useful for picking up small metal things, but I don't think this one has it. Something to think about for future models!

We used to laugh at needing a reacher, but now we have 5-6 of them. I have one in my workshop, my wife has one in her sewing room, there's one in the garage, there's one in our family room, and a couple more. Why? Things that fall on the floor wind up as far as possible from your reach every time. We need the one in the family room to pick up a small ball our 9# Shih Tzu plays with. We toss it, and he brings it back, but we have to bend down to pick it up. Balls roll under furniture as well, plus picking up doggy toys.

I have tried numerous reacher/grabbers only to be disappointed with them. I found this brand to be far superior to the previous ones I have had. It will pick up something as thin as a piece of paper, or a dime & as small as a tiny, tiny pill from the floor. I intend to purchase several more in order to keep one in each room in the house. That's how good they are. If you need a reacher/grabber, don't waste your time, energy or money on any other brand. IMHO, this one is the best. 9NOTE:

I am not sure about this grabber. It seems a little difficult to use because it seems as if you need a lot of strength. I do not have a lot of strength. I don't know if it's swivels the front I haven't found that out yet it would be easier if it did. I don't know how well this is going to work but I'm willing to work with it.

Picking up sticks& other things.while mowing. Not half to get off mower.
