Customer Reviews of As Seen On TV Gopher Pick Up and Retrieving Tool
Customer Review: Great picker-upper
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this tool after breaking my back in a car accident. It was terrific for use in keeping me from needing to bend down. The rubber gripping cups allow small pieces of paper and even coins to be picked up easily. The only reason this didn't get 5 stars is that it really only works well for light objects. Tennis shoes are about the maximum weight it can reliably lift.Customer Review: Not loving that it folds
Summary: 4 Stars
This is just the standard gopher, but it folds in half. That would be a good thing, if I could keep it from folding while using it. It just does not lock in the open position. Other than that, it is fineCustomer Review: Good product
Summary: 4 Stars
It will pick up most everything BUT it is only for light weight items. Two to three pounds no more. I have several of them and just ordered three more.Customer Review: Great for outdoor use
Summary: 4 Stars
Works well for outdoors. I use it to hang bird repellent on fruit trees. Safer and easier than moving a ladder around.Customer Review: Good product with 2 big flaws.
Summary: 3 Stars
The Gopher is a good product and you do not need to be disabled to use it. I find if you want to pick up something like a newspaper it is fine. But for heavier objects it is annoying because it closes in half. Get the ridget ones. Also the suction cups tips and the bars that hold the tips at the end popped off one day. I saw replacement parts for other reachers but not the Gopher.
I suggest getting a few of them because they are throw away products if they break. Because like windshield wipers when you need them you really need them and you would hate to have them break in the middle of a storm with no replacement on hand. The ridget ones ino carry bigget objects. But all and all if did what it is suppose to do,
