Pick up the things you can't reach with Etac's Aktiv Reacher. This unique reacher has an angled handle providing you with a comfortable grip and improved precision. The Aktiv Reacher is easy-to-use, light-weight, and requires minimal strength and effort. The ergonomically designed claw can be rotated 360 degrees which enables you to pick up small objects without having to twist your arm. The entire gripping surface of the claw is covered with hard-wearing rubber, providing good friction while reducing the amount of strength required. The Aktiv Reacher is ideal for both right and left-handed users. Weights .28 lbs and is 27.5 inches long. Reachers should not be used to lift more than 2.2 lbs.

In my previous review I forgot to mention that this product has a nifty little magnet on the tip of the handle, making it simple to pick up little things like paper clips, etc. - great!
I had another reacher of this type (shorter, lighter) in addition to a longer, more heavy-duty one, but I ran it over with my power-wheelchair, so needed a replacement. The old one I had was no longer available, so I looked at several types/brands at varying prices and this one just seemed like a good buy -- & it certainly was. The handle is very easy to use for someone like myself with limited strength. I like that the grabber can be turned at another angle. It's great for picking up things off the floor or reaching high. The only "bad" thing is that it won't lift something really heavy, but that's why I have the other reacher. This one seems very well-made. I hope to use it for many years.
I have bought numerous reach grabbers only to have the rubber grips come off and having to repair and hope it stays. This one is great everything is one piece no parts to fall off. I should have bought one of these first.
