Finally a solution to picking up these stubborn balls! Tool is easy to assemble so you can get right to work. Im the coolest person in the neighborhood when I get this tool out and everyone asks me where it is from.

2/1/25 Update: The company sent me the replacement part that broke, without me even asking. I'm very happy about that. I've replaced it and made sure to tighten the pole very well. Thank you!It really does pick up and hold a lot of sweet gumballs and is easy to use, but part of it broke on the first day. I think the problem is that middle section that you push down to release the items is a really brittle, cheap plastic and when the extended pole became loose, though I had hand tightened it a lot, when you pound it down on the ground the pole collapsed and the joint piece above it slammed into that part. A design flaw and cheap parts, but I still gave it three stars because it does work.AND, I'm a master with duct tape so I was able to mend that area just fine and resume using it. I didn't want to go through the hassle of having to return it since the same thing might happen again.

December 18, 2024. Product works great with a little practice. After several tries I was able to pick up 12 before discharging them into a bucket. Down side is that it’s pretty flimsy. The handle is robust enough but the assembly that is used for removing the sticky-balls is made of thin plastic. For the money spent it should be a little more sturdy. I’m hoping to get at least a couple seasons of use before it breaks. If/when it breaks I will write an update.

I have the large rolling bag-a-nut for the sweet gum balls in the yard but I couldn’t get them out of the flower beds or other landscaping without raking out mulch or landscaping rock. This tool allows for a quick, clean collection of gum balls without disturbing anything. Also allows for a long reach when needed. Functions very well.

I already had a Bag-A-Nut Harvester which is great for when lots of sweetgum balls are on the ground but I have a few locations (such as around landscaping) where I've been using a Reacher Grabber Tool.I have yet to use the Stab-A-Nut on a major clean-up but it works great picking up the few balls that fall on a daily basis. It is light and easy to swing about picking up balls left and right that would require a bit of maneuvering using the big Harvester and quite a bit more time using a Reacher Grabber Tool. The only limitation is that its 7"x4" pickup end will only hold so many balls before it needs to be unloaded. The Bag-A-Nut Harvester is definitely much better for big messes, but this Stab-A-Nut is just about right for daily pickups or tighter spaces.Following some reviewer's suggestion I watched an online video on Bag-A-Nut's website for assembling the tool and noted which way to swing the pieces for assembly and also learning to extend the shaft by twisting one end before inserting it.When using this tool the key word is "Stab" as I definitely have to stab it at balls to get them picked up. Just rolling it over or lightly pressing against the balls doesn't work. But not much effort is involved and work goes pretty quickly.BTW you need to be sure you purchase the right model of Bag-A-Nut product. They make them for Sweetgum and other size objects so be sure you get the one for Sweetgum Balls if that's what you have.

The Good - The product works. It picks up Gum Balls. The Bad - The frame is very weak plastic. Don't give it to the kids to use - It will not last a day.

Quicker and more efficient to bend down and pick up yourself!

My husband opened the box after a hard day at work, snapped it all together quickly (without needing the instructions) and immediately started testing it out. It was so easy he was laughing the whole time, calling the inventor a genius! He made fast work of our painful barefoot pathway to the lake. The next day he finished our large lakefront yard in about 15-20 minutes. It worked perfectly! We have 8-9 Sweet Gum trees. When the trees are in full release mode, nothing short of a leaf blower will do the trick in our situation The Stab-A-Nut, however, is the PERFECT solution to the inbetween mandatory maintenance, or else accept the "always-wear-shoes" they require. My husband I s having so much fun, I may even try it - if he'll let me play with it too... So simple a child could do it.The unit is well-made and the reputation of the company guarantees they will stand behind their product. I was given this unit as a gift, because the owners knew I really wanted one. The review was NOT required, but if I chose to, an honest one was requested. We would never do less. This review was honestly & enthusiastically given!
