Title: Hard to decide! Buy Both!
Review: The photos show the 2 grabbers that I purchased yesterday from Amazon Prime. The Pikstik is an exact replacement for the one I have had for many years now. The folding one I bought from Amazon Prime as well.I drive a mobility scooter and I have had the Pikstik unit secured across the top of the tiller and would perfectly set behind my 2 rear view mirrors and secured with 2 small clips. When I would spot something that would be a road hazard to cars by getting picked up by a moving vehicle and shot into a passing vehicle or a vehicle following it, I would swoop in and grab the object off the street and then place it off the road or if small enough I would toss it into the trash bag that I carry with me. I use the grabber almost every time I take the scooter out for a ride. I also have a 30” extension magnet for the metal objects that I find in the road like lug nuts, screws, nails, construction staples, hubcaps and items that I don’t know what they are. As a retired Army veteran, I used to be a helicopter mechanic and crew chief on Huey’s and unfortunately I was involved in an incident where a piece of metal was picked up and thrown into my tail rotor as the pilot lifted off the tarmac. The object destroyed the tail rotor causing the craft to spin out of control and the pilot had to slam us down HARD which caused horrific damage and injury to the pilot. I was lucky enough to only sustain minor injury. The one BIG rule that was always talked about was F. O. D. (Foreign Object Damage). Any object that is on the ground is a potential hazard to any aircraft so major attention is focused on making sure that no FOD is on the tarmac.The same applies to roads and streets and anywhere that vehicles travel. An object can be picked up by the tread of a vehicle and either right then or maybe later when that vehicle is on the highway or freeway and has enough speed going that the object stuck in the tread of the tire suddenly lets go of it. This object can and does catapult out from the tire and can easily damage a vehicle that happens to be behind them. I have seen objects penetrate through windshields or strike the body of the vehicle causing serious damage/or injury.So in my small town, while out and about I take it upon myself to help remove potentially dangerous objects from the streets in our town.So enough of the FOD stuff. I have always had the Pikstik non folding grabber handy for me to use. So why did I also buy the folding one? Well I sometimes, rarely but sometimes I wished I had 2 grabbers to aid in some of the larger items that I find in the streets. The other day I somehow managed to snap one of the grabber legs off from a branch sticking out of a large bush. I attempted a JB Weld repair with somewhat less than stellar precision and decided to just purchase a new one.So here it is. The Pikstik has a price tag of around $25. The folding one was $10 on a 50% reduced price from $20. The photos show that other than the folding difference the 2 grabbers are identical. I will install the non folding one back where the broken one has been riding for years. The folding one has a little snap clamp that I have installed under the seat of my mobility scooter and I can access it easily when I need a second one to assist with the Pikstik. Both of these grabbers seem to work identically and equally. One $25. The other $9.95. Hummmm. Big difference in the price for what? I’m not sure. But I am sure that I needed to replace the broken one I have with the same. I haven’t used the folding one yet but I can tell that it will probably perform equally as well as the non folding one. My recommendation would be as follows……Buy both of them and enjoy! I will!Now, I have 2 fur-babies that are ready to go for a ride today in “their” scooter. Hopefully I will try the folding one today.I will be posting this same review on both of the grabbers pages.

Title: Works almost like your fingers do!
Review: This is a great gadget! I dropped a hair pin, and was sure it couldn’t pick up something that small but it did, and on the first try. Hand the handle works well and istn’t difficult to use. Good, quality item.

Title: Heavy duty and worth it, usually
Review: This is very helpful. It’s long and study, allowing it to pick up heavier items than smaller models. Fair warning, it is heavier itself and a little harder to squeeze than smaller models. I can’t use it for a long time or my wrist and thumb get exhausted and sore. That said, it’s a great piece. I have bought two for two areas in my home. Then I have a smaller, lighter model for when this one is overkill. Overall, no complaints, but if you are disabled in a way that makes your hands or wrists weak, you may not be able to use this one as well as lighter counterparts. But if you need heavy-duty to pick up clothes and full soda cans and other things in that realm, this is an excellent grabber.

Title: Helpful in most instances, but needs a better grip so things don’t slip from it in
Review: This little device has come in handy, but there are items that can easily slip through the grip.I used it after a recent surgery, and it definitely came in handy.If I dropped my iphone, though, had a very difficult time picking it up. Be careful when reaching for canned goods as well.

Title: Perfect for retrieving dog toys under the couch…
Review: When will my puppy stop hiding his toys under the couch and then forcing me to use this to retrieve them for him?! Thankfully I have this tool now which makes it a bit easier. Does the job.

Title: Essential and Easy-to-Use Grabber Tool – A Must-Have for Everyone!
Review: I recently purchased the 32″ Reacher Grabber Tool and couldn’t be happier with the results. This tool has quickly become an essential part of my daily routine. Whether I’m picking up litter in the yard, retrieving items from high shelves, or helping an elderly family member with mobility challenges, it works like a charm.The lightweight design makes it super easy to maneuver, even for those with limited strength or arthritis. Despite its feather-light feel, it’s surprisingly sturdy and well-built. The claw grip is strong and precise, allowing me to grab everything from paper to small cans without dropping anything.What I love most is its versatility—it’s perfect for indoor and outdoor use. It’s also a great solution for avoiding unnecessary bending or straining, especially helpful for seniors or post-surgery recovery.Overall, this grabber tool offers a simple, effective way to extend your reach and reduce physical stress. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a practical, affordable assistive device!

Title: Easy to grip but not a strong grip
Review: Depending on what you need to grab this works . . . Or it doesn’t. I picked this one as it was collapsible, which possibly is why its grip is not as strong as I’d like it to be.This will definately help you get a stray leaf out of the pool, or pick your socks up off the floor. It will not be able to grab a box of tissues off the top shelf. The grip is wide enough but not strong enough to hold it.Perhaps I am naive in thinking a tool like this could hold a square box of tissues (again, it’s wide enough to grip it but the grip isn’t strong enough to hold it) – that may be the case, but in case I am not alone in that naïveté passing it along.

Title: Worth Every Penny!
Review: The price is right, the shipping is fast, and I mean fast. The only negative is that the grabber does have a magnet. Lol. Great product! Great service!

Review: The rubber gripping dots fell off very quickly. The screw is just so small. Otherwise it’s foldable, which is a plus. But not very long lasting
