The Grip - All

Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.

Transforms a small handle into a large one instantly.

People who have reduced use of their fingers will find it advantageous in gripping utensils, tools and items such as a toothbrushes. Handles from 1/2" (13 mm) to 1" (25 mm) fit into the gripping coil. A split plastic tube is supplied to increase the size of handles smaller than 1/2". The durable plastic tube is made in two pieces, connected by a toothed rim on each half which controls the gripping action, as one half is turned and the other held. Two independently adjustable hand clasps enclose the hand so that grasping the tube is not necessary. Overall length is 7 1/2" (19 cm); diameter is 1 1/3" (34 mm). Dishwasher safe.
