This is a life saver--I wish it was a bit more sturdy but I have them all ove the house...they are absolutely helpful!Customer Review: Quite handy
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this for my mother who has bad knees. She turned around and bought one for each floor. Also got one for myself.Customer Review: Picker-uppers help other ways
Summary: 4 Stars
I guess I must have 4 of these around the house, 1 in the car, and they all get used a lot. Not only are they great when you need to pick something up off the floor or reach something up high, but they really make it easier to get dressed if you can't bend your knees or reach your feet. On the negative side, the centers of the rubber cups are pretty fragile plastic and after a few months the cups fall off and can't be screwed on again because of the stripped holes. I did go online and contact the manufacturer and ordered a dozen new rubber cups, which came with extra screws, and now I just put new cups on when that happens. It's cheaper and greener than buying new picker-uppers. I also like being able to fold it and lay it on a surface and not have to worry about knocking it on the floor.Customer Review: Worth the price, suction cups could be sturdier
Summary: 4 Stars
I have had one of these for 5 years. I find it handy to reach things from high shelves or behind furniture, etc. It is amazingly nimble in picking up small items and oddly shaped items.
I help pick up trash on a stretch of road for my work's "Adopt A Highway" program. After I put my back out for 2 days bending over 200 times in a morning, I got one of these. It worked great the next 3 times we went out. It can pick up tiny scraps or full bottles.
I had the same problem others did with the suction cups coming off or breaking. I am going to try to glue the plastic center of the suction cup, but if that doesn't work, I'll just go buy another one. For $10-12 bucks, it's worth it to me to replace it. I won't be without one.
Customer Review: A handy tool to have around...
Summary: 4 Stars
I have had one of these for a few years and used it occassionally to reach things up high. Recently, I broke my ankle and have been confined to my recliner for the most part. This tool has become very important to me to be able to get things I need without calling someone to help me. I am ordering an extra pair to keep around the house.
For those of you who haven't been able to find replacement suction cups, they are available online from Ontel products at [...]
