Sammons Preston Reachers
Reachers

The versatility of reachers brings independence to many people in numerous situations. Because reachers extend the arm, they bring everything within easy reach, making them essential aids for persons with lower back problems or difficulty bending. Reachers eliminate the danger of balancing precariously on a stool to reach something on a high shelf. Back injuries and falls are often prevented because you don't need to bend or stretch to use a reacher. Persons in wheelchairs benefit from reachers, as do persons with arthritis, restricted arm movement or limited reach.

People of all abilities find many uses for reachers, and soon consider them indispensable. They are especially convenient in the kitchen, for pushing or pulling hot oven racks, opening cabinets or drawers, and taking cans off high shelves. You can even use a reacher to hold a sponge to "mop" spills on the floor. Reachers are equally useful in the bedroom for dressing. Many reachers help in pulling on or pushing off clothing or shoes, reaching for items in a closet and opening and closing zippers. After acquiring a reacher, people soon discover that its uses are practially limitless!

The Sammons Preston Ergo Reach Reacher requires only 8 oz of pressure at the trigger to close the interlocking-tip jaws. An ergonomic handle and trigger area allows easier gripping and places the hands and fingers at a natural grip position. Soft slip-resistant Santoprene molding over the claws provides greater grip power. The entire pulling post is a magnet, which can be used to pick up small metal objects, and the arm is constructed from durable aluminum with a powder-coated finish. Clip in the middle of the arm allows the user to attach the Reacher to wheelchair arms or cane.
