Customers Say
Useful grabber for those with mobility issues; lightweight, foldable, and includes a magnetic tip. However, many find it short, flimsy, and requiring strong grip, limiting ease of use for arthritic hands.

Cheaply made and poor value
I also have a Helping-hand grabber so am comparing with that. Flimsily made (which is not necessaily a problem) with cheap materials. This results in: * The grip and handle are quite small and made of cheap plastric which results in the grabber being uncomfortable to hold * It needs quite a bit of squeeze to operate the jaws. The will be a problem if used by someone with, for example, arthritic hands. Although the design of the mechanism is very simple and the same as all other grabbers (a cord running down the shaft), poor design of the geometry and cheap construction make the whole thing unpleasant to use. One positive is that it folds, if portability is important. Much better alternatives are available from Helping Hand, for not much more money. They also offer different lengths which is important to minimise bending.

Gets a thumbs down
This is a poor quality flimsy product. The plastic parts (grabber jaw and handle) are wobbly and look like they will easily break.

Litter picker
Very happy it will help my partner no end as she is struggling to bend down to pick things up after her operation a few weeks ago

My favourite object !
I bought this a couple months ago, it’s great! It could have been a little longer but it does the job for my chronic back pain. Very durable it picks up glasses, cans it has a magnetic thing at the end. I even use it to just be lazy when I don’t have pain. It’s great I would recommend this highly and perhaps buy some for Christmas presents

Exactly what I wanted. Works well

Cheap and small
It does what it is supposed to but barely. Its cheaply made with no thought or care put into the design. Looks like it was designed by an accountant who heard what a litter picker is once when drunk. Held together by string.

Good accuracy
I brought this ,because I'm on the list for a hip replacement and I wont be able to bend over for awhile, once its fixed ,so I'm trying to get used to using this ,so I'm proficient when I need to be , its easy to use and picks up well ,I didn't think it was going to be any good but I was wrong ,it has picked up everything that ive dropped
