DMIReacher Grabber Tool for Elderly, Disabled or After Surgery Recovery, Claw Grabber, Reaching Assist Tool, Trash Picker, Hand Gripper, Arm Extension, 26 Inches, Non Folding, Magnetic Claw

I recently had a hip replacement and I couldn't manage recovery without this! I bought one at a consignment shop and it was bulky and awkward. I needed help dressing and picking up everything that fell! This reacher is light weight, we'll made, sturdy, and easy to use. I can grab on to anything, clothing, books, blankets, I even did laundry with it, and picked up cracker crumbs off the carpet! I would buy this again and recommend it to any one who is limited in bending and needs assistance. I'm sure I'll be using this long after I recover!

Works great and so happy I bought it

Purchased For My Nannie, At Her Current Age She’s Earned Her Gray Hairs. She Struggles With Her Mobility Daily, As She Is Disabled. She Was Over The Moon. She Says These Are The Best Kind To Get & Far More Helpful Than The Other Plasticy Kind. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

good product

It has a little more length of our other similar item they both have there specific areas of use

its great

I've owned several brands of these reachers over the years and this is the first one I have ordered that is absolutely worthless! I ordered two 32 inch reachers and believe me I REALLY need them BAD right now. I'm disabled and due to a fracture I can't bend over or reach for much. I ordered one for my front room...and another for my bedroom and BOTH do NOT work worth a darned. They are so "cheaply" made and the jaw that is suppose to grab things doesn't close enough so that it can pick things up. (So frustrating!)I noticed on this grabber it has a large gap between the handle and trigger which makes it harder to pull the trigger---and I have large hands. Not sure what someone with small hands and short fingers would do? Also the string that is used to make the jaw open and close is cheap string that "won't" tighten up enough when the trigger is pulled in order to pick anything! At the very end of the jaw when the trigger is in the pulled position the top and bottom of the jaw do NOT touch therefore it can't pick up even a piece of paper on the floor unless you grasp it and wad it up--all my other reachers PRIOR to these never had this problem. Today I tried to pick-up a small empty box that my husbands eye drops came in---very small, tiny light weight box--I played heck picking it up...this reacher would NOT grab it for the life of me. I wanted to throw these reacher across the room. I'm going to call their customer service number on the box to tell them what I think about their product.Also I've noticed on both of the reachers I bought that each one has this "hard" plastic underneath it that hides the string. That hard plastic is falling out of the grabber on each end of it and I have to push it back in all the time. The handle on these are the thinnest and most cheaply made I've ever felt in my hand. They are SO THIN it's hard to hold on to it. (I'm so serious.) Out of the two reachers I bought I noticed the jaw will NOT open all the way on one of them. One does..and one doesn't! I have to manually open the jaw all the way if I am trying to pick something up. I paid $14.99 for each one and I feel totally ripped off since I cannot use either of them for the purpose they were purchased for. Then include the S & H charge of $12.99 which means I'm not a happy camper. I wouldn't want to pay more then $2.00 for these..that's how cheaply made they are in my opinion. I've been given reachers from the hospitals and they all worked fantastic so I can't get over these being so poorly made. If I wasn't battling cancer I would box them up and mail them back but I'm not up to it. Talk about throwing money away. I am using my "older" wore out reachers for now and they work better then these new ones. I seriously can't even use these reachers for simple things like reachering across my table where I sit to grab a piece of Kleenex for myself...all my other grabbers would do it with NO problem...not these because they will NOT close enough to grab anything. ARGH!!!! The cardboard the reachers were attached too when I got them said, "the serrated jaw offers a secure grasp with minimal effort". HA...THAT IS A JOKE. These reachers are so important to someone like myself--I was so glad to see them when they arrived at my door only to be highly disappointed after trying them both out. :( These are just completely useless. So now I will search for a QUALITY reacher that actually works. I can't believe how much I paid for these and can't use them at all. I don't write many reviews but I HAD to this time because this is just JUNK...it wouldn't of been so bad if I'd paid $2.00 each for them. But I paid OVER $40.00 counting the S & H for something I can't use at all due to the shotty workmanship. One last thing. When you READ the reviews on this reacher make SURE you look at the DATES on which the review was written. I've noticed many of the people that that LIKED this product were from 2007, 2008 and so on. The recently dated reviews were more like mine saying they were disappointed. I have a feeling this USE to be a good product...but not anymore...they won't get anymore repeat business from me.

Just had back surgery and this item is a life saver!!
