Pros:
Sturdy. Lightweight.
I hang my reachers on the grab bars and etc. The curve on this is not long enough therefore it is always falling on the floor. Very frustrating.

Pros:
Lightweight. Easy Storage. Safe.
Best Uses:
Elderly. Following Surgery.

better for many things than the suction-cup grabber. One of best things of this is that it is short enough to fit into the back pocket of my wheelchair. About 8-10 times a day (no exaggeration), I easily reach around to get it, using to pick up something, including especially my cane.

I am arthritic and cannot bend over so this is great for picking up things from the floor. Also for reaching items from tall shelves.

Describe Yourself:
paraplegic.
This is almost the most useful item in my home. I use it several times a day for various reasons. The most unusual is as a "belly rubber". I am paralegic and have a cat that loves to have her belly rubbed, but won't jump in my lap. As soon as she sees my reacher she immediately rolls over onto her back so I can rub her belly!

I've used much more expensive reachers, but they are no sturdier or more useful, so why pay more.

Anyone who can't reach. Elderly. Mail route. Following Surgery.
Describe Yourself:
Average Health. Postal carrier.
I have to have this tool every time I'm on my mail route! As a mail carrier, I drive on the right side so I can't reach the window opener on the left side. Using this tool to reach the window opener has saved me so many griefs of unbuckling my belt just to reach over that side. I use the little "knobby" tip at the end of the reacher to "hook" the handles of plastic bags of foods on the ground from my Jeep window on the annual food drives that happens twice a year. Mostly I use this tool to reach over the Jeep door to grab mail that sometimes gets blown out of my hands due to windy days or a loose piece falling out of a handful of mail. Also great for those hard to reach mail thrown far back in the mailboxes. The tips of the grabber is often so precise that I have no trouble picking up mail with it.It even has ridges on the tips so its easier to hang on to the mail I just grabbed. This tool enhances our safety on the road which is a plus because it helps us keep our seat belt on instead of having to take off our seat belt and stepping out of our vehicle just to grab that one piece of mail especially on dangerous high traffic areas! If the cord that pulls the grabber ever gets loose, its very easy to untie and retighten the cord which hardly ever happens. I think that of all the other reachers out there, this one is by far the strongest and most practical tool on the market. I wouldn't trade this tool for any other kinds of reachers that I have seen so far. I recommend this tool to all my mail coworkers! I also would recommend this reacher to any one who has a hard time reaching for things such as cans, boxes, bags or what ever you think that your opposable thumb and fingers would grab onto otherwise.
