Pickup Grabber Telescopic Magnetic Pickup Tool with Hook Pick-Up Pole Wire Fish Stick Pocket extendable Magnet Pickup Tool

This is a very handy gadget. It's lightweight and telescoping so it doesn't take up much room. We use it to get hard to reach clothing out of the dryer or to get something out of a tight corner or that's fallen behind a couch. It's great for the dryer because you don 't have to bend or kneel, just open the telescoping wand andyou got it. It has a hanging loop so if you hang it near your dryer or other accessible area, you won't lose it. It does a great job with light items, but it is not sturdy enough to get something very heavy ,especially off a high shelf.

I agree with one of the reviewers that most fishing lure retriever polls are made for motorized boats and too large to carry on small kayaks or rowboats. This is wonderful, in that it's affordable and also folds down to about a foot in size. I read other reviewers' comments regarding the attachments unscrewing over time, so used some Loctite as suggested by another reviewer to affix each attachment. So far, this has been great for retrieving items from the bottom of the lake in clear shallow water, and it looks like it will work well for retrieving lures from trees, docks, and the occasional docked boat. It does seem to hold water after use, so we try to dry well but are not sure if it will hold up over time given propensity for rust. I also like that it is not very easy to push down into the shortest position, as this allows you to actually use the hook in a push position for retrieving lures. Excellent buy given that other pole lure retrievers cost four or five times as much.

This tool is great lightweight and small enough to put in my bag reaches to the back of retail shelves

It's something very convenient for my job. I can easily get hold of something 4 or 5 feet away from me.

Magnet end narrows down to very thin. I tried to use hook end to take down and item that was a bit too heavy for the narrow magnet end which was in my hand and it broke in half. Need to be very light objects on the hook end so it wont break.

All of the bedrooms in my house have 10 foot ceilings with fans and my living room ceiling is 40 feet and has a fan about 20 feet from the ground. Because the switches are made where you can turn the fans and lights on from opposite sides of the rooms, I can't put in a fan control switch. I bought this so I can pull the chains for lights and speed

This is a nice metal rod with a strong magnet on the bottom. You can swap the magnet out and attach the curlicue hook on the end, which is exactly what I did, and that cute little curlicue is perfect for the task I was hoping it could help me with! I am using it to push/pull a series of small levers that are about 5.5 -7.0 feet away from me in a very tight space. I wasn't totally sure this would be the tool for this task so I am relieved that it is and thrilled that it is working so well. I am sure that I will find many other uses for this nifty telescoping pole with a cute curlicue hook, too. I highly recommend it.

Cannot extend without plyers

The hook came off.

The media could not be loaded.

This item certainly makes my job easier. I could no longer get the hangers as high as the rod. This really helps. It seems strong enough for the job and the item itself is very light.

I use it for Geocaching. I never realized how much I needed this in my life. It is easy to fit into a backpack. I also bring it in the kayak.

I had to fetch my keys in the large blue garbage box . YIKES!!!! So this long magnetic pole helped tremendously Thanks a million Lena T
