As a guy whose repeatedly injured his knees, I found it difficult and painful to kneel down to pick up stuff in my shop. I got this beast and immediately fell in love. I’ve been down working in my shop and it worked great. I dragged an 8’ 2x4 out of the way, picked up my impact driver, and lifted a full 3.8 L jug without any issues.As for fine handling, I dropped a chicklet-type piece of gum on the floor. Small, smooth, and slippery, and I grabbed it with no problems.It’s exactly what I wanted and I’m very happy with it so far. RECOMMENDED.*** Update *** - I’ve just done a big reorganization of my shop. I picked up 2x4 scraps, cans and jugs, even screws and nails. It’s done it all - I still love this thing!

This is a very sturdy device, strong enough to pick up pretty much any household items. The only significant issue is the hard rubber tips on the gripping arms and their geometry as they close.Picking up a tv remote for example - the hard rubber tips slide over the curved edges of the remote and the angle of the arms means that the force on the remote is both inward and down. It falls out of the grip every time. I found the same problem with a cellphone, a book or anything else of similar size and shape.My solution was to cut and reshape the rubber tips to create a wedge shape that pinches under the edges of anything I try to lift.

A little too heavy for me because I have arthritis and other issues with my hands. Quite a bit of pressure must be applied to the handle to use it. The angle you have to hold it to easily squeeze the handle is different than most reachers/grabbers so you have to hold it almost horizontal to the ground if you're sitting in a wheelchair to pick up something off the floor. Even that way, it's very painful to bend my wrist like that. Most reachers/grabbers have a trigger style which is easier. But I got this to dig out clothes from a top loading washing machine (my apartment building doesn't have front loaders) so I had to get this type of handle. I hold it vertically and squeeze the handle with my arm straight out (see first photo). However, it's much easier to use it to get something above me because I don't have to bend my wrist downward.

I broke my ankle and am immobilized for awhile. So I needed another of these great aids. I researched and like the reviews. This is sturdy and I like the reliable rubber grips as well as the shape of the grips for pull bottles, etc. It’s a bit heavy and takes a fair amount of gripping strength for a senior. It might be a problem for a person without a lot of upper body and hand strength. I have another reacher/grabber and like that it pivots so you can change the angle of the grabber but this one doesn’t have that ability. So I’d say it’s pros are it’s sturdiness, shape of grabber and rubber grips. The cons are that the angle can’t be adjusted and (maybe) the weight and strength required to grip and hold it depending on who you are.

I'm giving this four stars because I find the trigger a little stiff. My forearms get very sore using this because my grip strength isn't that great yet. If a senior citizen is using this & they have arthritis in their hands then this product may not work for them. Other than that I think this product is good. I have been using it to pick up litter by the creek in my neighbourhood because I hate seeing all the trash people leave behind. It's sturdy, and it does work on larger items & small items alike. Just note that if the item you're picking up is heavy be prepared to balance the weight. It's not meant to reach something heavy if you don't have the upper body strength to support it.
