Reacher Grabber Tool, 32" Grabbers for Elderly, Lightweight Extra Long Handy Trash Claw Grabber, Mobility Aid Reaching Assist Tool for Trash Pick Up, Nabber, Litter Picker, Arm Extension

I purchased this a couple months ago for a family member who was having a cervical fusion surgery. We knew that they would be unable to bend for several weeks, so we figured this would come in handy. It has proven to be very useful and helpful. I was worried that the squeeze handle might be too hard since my family member also has grip issues, but it hasn't been a problem. It is a firm squeeze but not excessive. It has rubber or silicone grippers on the end that make it much easier to pick up fabrics and little things like paper. We have only ran into one item that it hasn't worked on and that is a chunky Motorola cellphone with a thick case. When the phone is laying flat on the ground it's nearly impossible. However, it has been used to pick up coins, letters, remotes, clothing, shoes, water bottles, keys, an apple, and so much more. Truly, the only thing that it hasn't worked on is that phone. I would fully recommend this product to anyone who may be in the market for something like this.

The photos show the 2 grabbers that I purchased yesterday from Amazon Prime. The Pikstik is an exact replacement for the one I have had for many years now. The folding one I bought from Amazon Prime as well.I drive a mobility scooter and I have had the Pikstik unit secured across the top of the tiller and would perfectly set behind my 2 rear view mirrors and secured with 2 small clips. When I would spot something that would be a road hazard to cars by getting picked up by a moving vehicle and shot into a passing vehicle or a vehicle following it, I would swoop in and grab the object off the street and then place it off the road or if small enough I would toss it into the trash bag that I carry with me. I use the grabber almost every time I take the scooter out for a ride. I also have a 30” extension magnet for the metal objects that I find in the road like lug nuts, screws, nails, construction staples, hubcaps and items that I don’t know what they are. As a retired Army veteran, I used to be a helicopter mechanic and crew chief on Huey’s and unfortunately I was involved in an incident where a piece of metal was picked up and thrown into my tail rotor as the pilot lifted off the tarmac. The object destroyed the tail rotor causing the craft to spin out of control and the pilot had to slam us down HARD which caused horrific damage and injury to the pilot. I was lucky enough to only sustain minor injury. The one BIG rule that was always talked about was F. O. D. (Foreign Object Damage). Any object that is on the ground is a potential hazard to any aircraft so major attention is focused on making sure that no FOD is on the tarmac.The same applies to roads and streets and anywhere that vehicles travel. An object can be picked up by the tread of a vehicle and either right then or maybe later when that vehicle is on the highway or freeway and has enough speed going that the object stuck in the tread of the tire suddenly lets go of it. This object can and does catapult out from the tire and can easily damage a vehicle that happens to be behind them. I have seen objects penetrate through windshields or strike the body of the vehicle causing serious damage/or injury.So in my small town, while out and about I take it upon myself to help remove potentially dangerous objects from the streets in our town.So enough of the FOD stuff. I have always had the Pikstik non folding grabber handy for me to use. So why did I also buy the folding one? Well I sometimes, rarely but sometimes I wished I had 2 grabbers to aid in some of the larger items that I find in the streets. The other day I somehow managed to snap one of the grabber legs off from a branch sticking out of a large bush. I attempted a JB Weld repair with somewhat less than stellar precision and decided to just purchase a new one.So here it is. The Pikstik has a price tag of around $25. The folding one was $10 on a 50% reduced price from $20. The photos show that other than the folding difference the 2 grabbers are identical. I will install the non folding one back where the broken one has been riding for years. The folding one has a little snap clamp that I have installed under the seat of my mobility scooter and I can access it easily when I need a second one to assist with the Pikstik. Both of these grabbers seem to work identically and equally. One $25. The other $9.95. Hummmm. Big difference in the price for what? I’m not sure. But I am sure that I needed to replace the broken one I have with the same. I haven’t used the folding one yet but I can tell that it will probably perform equally as well as the non folding one. My recommendation would be as follows……Buy both of them and enjoy! I will!Now, I have 2 fur-babies that are ready to go for a ride today in “their” scooter. Hopefully I will try the folding one today.I will be posting this same review on both of the grabbers pages.

The grabber feels like it should be nice and strong. But I can tell you it won't grab and hold onto a 12x20 pillow to get it over to you. I was quite disappointed with that. I had what felt like a flimsier one but it could handle that little pillow. unfortunately after several years, that one finally gave up. I haven't used this one for cans or anything yet, so I can't speak to that at this time.

It is incredibly well built and durable, but light. It easily folds up so you can put it in your luggage. You can even pick up heavy items such as a coat if you twist the reacher while picking it up. I always take it with me if I go to the hospital because I am constantly dropping things on the floor. The blue handle and markings on the reacher also make it easy to find if it gets partially covered up. And the price is very economical.I have 2 of them, one for the living room/kitchen and one for the bedroom. I even sent one to my sister and brother!

Purchased this gripper because I had eye surgery and was told not to bend over for two weeks. I have two cats, who are fed twice a day and area rugs that need to have edges flipped when vacuuming. So I ordered this gripper. It's the answer to both my "problems"! It's sturdy, well made, and very very easy to use. Great price, fast delivery and I highly recommend you try it.

It works fine but the handle is too hard too squeeze and makes my hand ache…but I’m and older person so that may be the problem.

I love this grabber it's strong and it doesn't Bend unless you pull it out of the slot which is the best thing and the packaging oh my gosh was wonderful. I wasn't even sure what it was until I opened it up and I saw it. It is good sturdy wonderful. Good job and it's an A+ Plus I also like the wide bottom, the handle it works so good it's not hard to push but it grabs it and holds it.

The grabber works great! The price was right. It folds up so it can be compact. I used it to get some detergent. I dropped behind my washing machine and I couldn’t reach it. It picked it up first try don’t hesitate to buy one.
