6.3 Ft Truck Cargo Grabber Reach Retriever Tool with Two Hooks, Pickup Truck Bed Heavy Duty Truck Accessories Telescoping Pole

Works well, but the ends bend a little easier than I would like

I will try to be as honest as possible because I depend on other people's reviews and feel I want to help the best I can: This item is pretty cool. I recently had a Storage Shop built with a 8' Deep Loft on either end. TO be able to use the full Loft as an attic, I realized I needed a way to reach things way in the back. This item works perfectly. From my ladder I can safely reach boxes and small items all the way 6' deep easily. I like that it has TWO different grab heads that change out quickly. If I need a box with stuff inside it, I usually use the flat bar with the bent end. If I need to grab to grab a music stand or a walker I use the hook end and nab it to pull it out. A quick twist of the handle sections allow it to retract or extend out to full length. I highly Recommend. Good Luck.

I think the best use of this is in the back of a lined truck bed where you can leave this fully extended. Then again, a boat hook might be better. The hook itself has sharp edges, so you much be cautious with any interior surfaces and side windows. It is made of steel, so it is heavy for its size and will have momentum if it hits something. I tried to change the hook, but realized that I would have to clamp it down to remove the screws. This is not something you could do quickly and without a vise or similar tool. I don't know what the point of two hook is if you cannot swap them. Finally, the whole point of me getting this was I wanted a portable hook I could easily deploy and store. It is small, but you have to be aware of that hook when storing it. It gets old to tighten and loosen the sections repeatedly to use it, especially since they loosen easily unless tightened firmly. I ended up getting a compact boat hook. It's quicker to deploy and store, and the plastic hook is strong yet soft.

Perfect for reaching recyclable cardboard at the back of the bed. Every truck should have one

my son-in-law had one of these on his wish list I decided that it is a great gift so I orderd several more
