Grabber Reacher Tool, Orange, 32", Foldable | 360° Rotating Head, Wide Jaw, Lightweight Trash Claw, Trash Pick Up Stick, Litter Picker, Arm Extension

Sturdy. Works as advertised. Nice reach and even picks up small objects.

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.

Great little tool. After hip replacement, needed something to help pick up items that I dropped on the floor. This tool is lightweight, handle is sturdy but strong. Grip claw is sturdy and picks up the smallest of item with ease. Used it for everything until I was again able to pick up things without assistance. Will hang on to this for back-up as I age or my friends/family may need help in the future. This is great item.

This reacher tool is way more useful than the listing makes it sound. The 32" length is perfect for grabbing stuff behind the couch, under the bed, or anywhere your arm refuses to go. The claw has enough grip to pick up small things without dropping them, and the frame doesn’t feel flimsy or twisty like the bargain-bin versions. Lightweight, easy to squeeze, and honestly handy for anyone — not just the elderly. It’s one of those tools you don’t think about until you need it, and then you’re glad it’s there.

A good quality tool. I purchased it for surgeries I was having and I still have it and it's still in great working order

I just had major hip surgery and this thing has been a game changer. I don't have to bend over to pick stuff up the grip on it is amazing. If I had one knock and this feels like nitpicking I would say that the heavier the item is the harder it is to pick up. But that's the reality of life right. Picking up for example a empty glass bottle super easy for this thing. Picking up a glass bottle with a liter of water in it not so much. But it's helped me and pay for itself 10 times over in the first hour that I used it. Due to the added grip structure on the actual grip part meaning it has some lines on it and some bumps to assist with grabbing things you're able to maneuver very small items as a result. I cannot speak highly enough about this. It seems very sturdy and not cheaply made. I also love the fact that I can fold it up and it is very easy to maneuver size-wise if I need to carry it in a pocket or like a crossbody bag. Super effective very versatile and can use it for just about anything. Again the biggest issue being the heavier the object the harder it is. But for most things that are lightweight or medium weight this thing is awesome.

I have one of these downstairs and this one for the upstairs. I drop items behind or beside the washer-dryer area. This grabber gets them easily for me. Also comes in handy for high items on shelves as well as dog toys under the bed or other furniture. A great tool for those of us needing an extra hand or reach. The grip and size are just right for my needs at 78 years old.

Does the job just not what I was expecting compared to others I've used. It does not extend, nor rotate to reach narrow spaces. Handle is very bulky, which makes it hard to find a place to store this thing in my apartment; cannot hang on the wall. I bought this because I am short, not elderly and thought I could use this instead of grabbing a step stool. While the grabber end is sturdy, it has damaged soft & delicate items in it's grasp.

The story is extremely useful when you have hurt your back or have difficulty picking things up from the floor. It looks very sturdy and is very easy to use and the best part is that the price is very reasonable for the quality of the product that you get.
