Customer Reviews of Duro-Med 32 Aluminum Reacher with Magnetic Tip
Customer Review: Really works well
Summary: 5 Stars
This grabber is well-designed, sturdy and works very well. I pick up pieces of paper from the floor without crumpling them. The magnetic tip grabs paper clips and other metal. In a pinch, when no one is around to help, I even use this to remove wet clothes from a top-load washer to put them into the dryer. I have lower back problems, and this is a back-saver!! Much, much more functional than the cheap ones you get for $9.95 at the drugstore.Customer Review: Absolute Junk
Summary: 1 Stars
Is there any rating lower than one star? This reacher looks like the one used in my hip replacement class, but it is useless. It's very cheaply made. The lower "jaw" does not line up with the upper "jaw" or gets knocked out of alignment with even the lightest use. The grip is so weak, it won't pick up anything. If it did, it would probably break. I bought one of each length. They went straight into the trash. Don't waste your money.Customer Review: Reacher w/Magnetic Tip
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this item because I was having hip replacement surgery. I used this item a couple times right after the surgery and it worked perfectly for the reasons I purchased it. However, I know it will continue to help me reach items on shelves that are too high for me to reach normally. I am glad I purchased it. The price was also less on-line then what I saw it listed for in a couple of stores I checked for this item.Customer Review: Disappointed!
Summary: 1 Stars
I inherited a reacher like this from my mother, and it gave both of us great service for over 15 years. This looked like the same product, so I expected similar durability and ease of use, and I even ordered one for a friend. However, the company must have changed suppliers, as the cords on both broke within a month of purchase. I was very disappointed, and would recommend considering another manufacturer's product instead.Customer Review: Reacher Aid
Summary: 2 Stars
I have purchased several reachers in an attempt to find one that is capable of fastening the velcro closure of my shoes. This reacher seems to be poorly made, the jaw slips off to the side and is no help at all for the purchase purpose. It is adequate in picking up small objects and clothes etc off the floor when you cannot bend over to get them. The magnet is there if you drop a pin or some other small metal object.
