2 out of 5 stars Cheap and flimsy   October 30, 2008
This grabber is flimsy and cheaply made.

Other similar products are much better made than this one and cost only $5 more.



1 out of 5 stars Cheap, flimsy product   September 29, 2008
I actually ordered and received two of these, one being held in reserve. I need to use a grabber frequently, as I'm not allowed to bend over - "hip precautions". I had had a couple of good ones which eventually wore out, which my wife had found at Wal-Mart. I couldn't find any foldable ones in local retail stores any more. So I searched the internet and came up with the ones pictured here. When they arrived they seemed very flimsy. I'm still using the first one and haven't yet needed the one in reserve. It's very light weight, when opened doesn't lock sucurely into position, the gripper cups won't close too firmly and so on. Next time I need to buy such a thing (and they all wear out eventually) I'll go to a different source I found on the internet. On that site such items are more expensive but I'm sure much better.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. these are crap and don't work. I would return them if I could.

We're seniors and reaching, bending, etc. isn't as easy as it once was. We bought several to have in handy locations. Glad we did!

the product came as detailed in ad. It is well worth the money and does exactly what it is supposed to do. One doesn't really need an expensive reacher when one has this product.
