Josh, the president of PikStik, wanted to create an updated version of a widely recognized reacher that had been on the market for many years. I gave the redesign a fresh yet recognizable aesthetic changing to a one piece design that removed visible screws, streamlined assembly, and reduced part costs. The locking mechanism and handle were also redesigned to be more ergonomic and a lanyard attachment opening was added. The new trash-can hook adjusts in a clever way and uses just three parts.
