This grabber folds up to a length that is perfect for my 4'10" frame. I keep it folded. I liked it so much that I purchased a second fold-able grabber. One for the kitchen and one for my bedroom.

I had some hip surgery recently and this was a must buy. I am using it to help me dress, do laundry, open blinds , grab things that I drop , reach down in low cupboards and up to high shelves. Only complaint is that the very useful little plastic clip for attaching it to my walker broke right away☹️ so would be nice if it had been stronger.otherwise great little unit.. it folds in two if necessary.

I just had hip surgery and I am not allowed to lean forward pass 90 digress. I had the usual old grabber, the blue one. This yellow one is amazing. Very strong to pick heavier things. I can also use it to take my bottom clothes off including socks. I like it so much I ordered three more. One for each room in my house. Don't buy The Original Reacher 2-Pack with the black handle. It is is not the same. Make sure you buy this one with the yellow handle. You wont regret it

We had an older picker-upper that I had used when my hip was replaced. To long for my wife, so we shopped for a replacement. We bought this helper and it works great, good length and it clips to the walker.My wife is very pleased, and so am I.

When I opened the package and got my first glance at this, my immediate thought was "Aaahhh what a waste of my money!" It looked SOOO cheap and flimsy and I didn't think it would last a week. I was SO wrong. I am disabled -I walk with a walker and my hips are bad so I cannot bend over to reach things on the ground very easily and sometimes not at all. I'm also very short, so I use this tool to reach things up high. Basically, I never go anywhere without it because I use it all the time, like at least 5x a day. It has been several months since I bought this and it is still just as good as when I first bought it. I also love that it quickly bends up in order to be more compact and easier to carry around. The magnet at the end is also very useful, as well as the little nodule at the end that helps me get dressed. I do wish it was a little stronger to grab heavier objects, but I'm OK with that since it has over exceeded my best expectations. I am very very impressed and I highly recommend this!

This 26 inch reacher is shorter and sturdier than a traditional grabber making it easier to help get dressed, grab things off the floor, take your shoes off without having to bend down. There is a metal spoke that helps untie shoes and get clothes on and off easier. It is strong enough to grab a wheelchair and pull it closer to you and pull other objects closer as well. It also has a magnet for picking up metal objects such as spoons paperclips and so much more. I highly recommend this to anyone who needs extra help picking things up and to avoid bending for those with hip or back problems. It is a wonderful tool that is easy to carry with you ( especially the foldable option) at all times. A must for anyone needing a little extra help with ADL'S and other everyday activities.

When I first unboxed this, I thought it looked like a kiddie toy. It didn't look particularly sturdy, etc. BUT - I started to use it once I got back from my surgery and discovered that it was far more sturdy than it looks. Haven't had a single problem with that. In addition, the "claw" on it has tips on the upper and lower halves that actually intertwine for lack of a better word when you close them. That means that having done so, one or the other won't slip sideways and cause you to lose grip. I found that the claw tips would pick up even something as thin as a facial tissue and hold on to it, and yet I can also pick up some thing like a good sized soda bottle (full - have NOT tried a 2-liter :-) ) by its neck/cap area securely. Up by the tip there is a straight stud at right angle to the main square shaft; this stud is great for "hooking" something like some clothing items, etc., where the claw might be a problem. Finally, at first I thought that the short length (compared to some grabbers you might buy in a store) wasn't good BUT I discovered that by being a bit shorter it was less likely to bend or twist. Equally important, when you're not mobile and lying down, that shorter length means that once you've grabbed something it is very easy to pull the unit back and get your other hand on the object you've grabbed - a longer arm might make that very awkward. It has proven to be an extremely versatile tool.

I found this fold up reacher was excellent for travelling as I use it for dressing and it fits nicely in my suitcase.

Got this for my 92-yr. old mother to keep in her wheelchair when she is out of her room or can't reach the two full-size non-foldable grabbers she has on her wall or hanging on her bedside table. When she first received it she wondered why she needed a third one. But after using it, & figuring out how to push the button (must be really user-friendly because she usually is helpless!) this is her favorite grabber! She said everyone in her assisted living facility is asking about it. Seems to be a great product.Updated review after over 1 yr. I have purchased this product at least 4 times, to replace the previous ones that break in less than 1-2 mos. The string comes apart & there is no way to fix it, I tried. I keep buying them because mom loves it but the last one just broke & I am giving up. I don't understand why it got so many great reviews since the product is so flimsy & cheap. Good intentions but not fair to my mom who is on the opposite coast, wheelchair bound, & helpless without a grabber. I'm shopping around now.
