26 Inches Folding Grabber Reacher with Ergonomic Handle

My favorite of all the reachers I've bought! Jaw opens slightly wider than my other ones so it can be used to pick up slightly larger things (such as a box of disposable gloves) and most importantly the jaw is properly shaped (curves in not out) and has rubbery gripper 'teeth' on both sides so it can successfully hold on to slightly heavier things such as a 20 oz. drink bottle or box of gloves!! The handle doesn't require too much pressure to squeeze so it doesn't aggravate my hands like some reachers. It can be pulled apart in middle though somewhat difficult if you aren't strong (halves connected by string) and mashes into that yellow plastic hook on it for carrying somewhere. (Don't buy those other reachers that the jaws curve outwards because they won't hold onto anything weighing more than a couple ounces because items just slip out.) For me, this 26" length works great for reaching items on floor and putting on slacks - I'm 5'3" tall.

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.

This is an amazing grabber! I had hip replacement surgery and it never left my side during recovery! It is just the right length, light weight, smooth trigger! It does fold but never needed to do that. Because it does fold it will come apart if you are trying to do something heavy. It picks up the tiniest objects. It picked up a flat piece of onion skin from my floor! The metal piece at the end is so useful. I used it to get my shoes on. I cannot say enough good things about it. If you are are planning a surgery and need a grabber this is the one!

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.

Very helpful and works great. Due to recent hip surgery vi cannot bend over to pick things up. It even gets little pills if I drop them. The folding feature is great if I go somewhere it can be put in my walker bag easily .

Recommended by my physical therapist when I had hip replacement. This grabber is very useful. It picks up the smallest of objects. I continue to use it after my hip is healed because it is so easy to pick up things from the floor. I did remove the clip that is supposed to mount it on the walker because it did not really hold. I wish there was a loop for hanging it.

This grabber works well, but only for small and light things.

I have had several folding grabbers that I use for traveling or just to carry around with me outside of my home. I like having a folding one, that I can put in whatever bag I'm carrying or my backpack. This one has been the most sturdy, without any issues that I can tell so far. The others have ultimately broken, because the string that pulls it together gets worn. I had one that had pieces would fall off of it which is very inconvenient, since I need to grab her to pick them up off the floor. This one is great because there are arrows on the two pieces that indicate how you're supposed to put the grabber parts together to use it. So no mistakes, and also the string is unlikely to fray as the others have. I really recommend this grabber. It costs a little more but it's going to last me a lot longer than the last one I bought.

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