HK300 - Fruit Picker
Picking fruit from high branches can be awkward and dangerous. Ladders leaning against the tree are perilous at best and climbing in the tree can damage limbs – yours and the tree's!
This tree fruit picker affixes to any pole with a diameter between 24 to 30mm, and allows you to pick fruit easily while standing on the ground. The rounded metal fingers and the cotton bag ensure that the fruit is picked without bruising. Ideal for apples, pears, peaches, plums, and many other tree-grown fruits.
10" long with a 4" opening.
Pole not included. Requires a pole adapter (available separately) if using a pole with a threaded end.

Many people call it an apple picker, but this fruit picker tool is designed for apples, pears, peaches, plums, and any other fruit that grows on trees that you can't reach from the ground.
No, the rounded metal fingers guide fruit into a soft cotton bag rather than a rigid basket, so it lands without bruising.
A ladder leaned against a tree is unstable, and climbing into the branches risks injuring both you and the tree, so reaching up with this pole-mounted picker is a safer way to harvest from the ground.
