TeleStik™ allows people to retrieve hard-to-reach items without requiring significant grip strength or dexterity. It uses a clever adhesive pad that picks up objects weighing up to 0.5kg so requires minimal hand strength to operate, with no trigger squeezing or strong gripping. The adhesive pad grips the item you want to pick up when mild pressure is applied for 2 seconds. Its sleek design and sticking mechanisms allow the TeleStik to get into tighter places than other reachers. Ideal for people who suffer from arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or any other condition that makes it difficult to operate a traditional reacher. The TeleStik is also available with a magnet hook for picking up metal objects, hooking items or to help with dressing. The TeleStik is also available with both an adhesive pad and a magnet hook.
