This is a great little item for people who have difficulty picking metal items up with a reacher. My only complaint is that it would be more useful it there was some way it could have a longer telescopic range.

I find this a very useful object. I often drop my sewing needles and pins,and this tool helps me find them as well as picks them up for me. I have not used it on heavy objects as yet. but I am sure it will do a good job.
