Hello today we are talking about the lightweight reacher or the grabber
I know we all know what they are but even so, I decided to do a review on one for just in case somebody doesn't know what they are or what they do you never know, and it's another aid that can come in really handy in the home or out and about.
So the one I use today in the vlog which I'll leave the link to at the end of this, I have got from the Littlehampton Shop Mobility, they are letting me use their products to do reviews so a big thank you to the Littlehampton Shop Mobility.
The lightweight reacher or grabber what I call it is made out of lightweight metal with a plastic handle and a plastic claw with rubber inside the claw so that it grips well to most items.
I understand that you can also buy similar ones but made out of cheap plastic from cheap shops but if this is an item that you think you will use regularly I personally would buy one like this that is stronger and definitely going to last you a lot longer and be easier to use. and has a lot more grip and it's also easy to clean if needed.
In my vlog, I do a little demonstration on picking up a few items to show you how easy it is to use and I used three different materials to demonstrate this.
I used
rough Plastic
glass
soft plastic
and surprisingly it worked well on each item, it's also very handy if you are sitting in a chair, or using a mobility scooter or wheelchair to be able to pick up them hard-to-reach items from the floor or up high.
so all in all I found the grabber really useful and can see the benefits it has if there are things that you struggle with daily I would be thinking of getting one just to make life a little easier for your self it also helps with your independents not haven to ask someone all the time if they can pass you something, which I personally love.
I hope you have enjoyed this review, it's quite short I know but never the less it's another review to read and could help!
I thought I'd also let you know that there won't be a review out next week as I'm going into hospital for some treatment but I'll be back soon.
