Do you own a gripper or picker-upper?

I don't actually know the proper term for this tool. People with back or knee problems will often use a tool that looks like the end of scissors or two fingers that close in objects. The one I have my sister in Detroit for for me and I don't remember where she bought it but it has four prongs that look too small to do much. It can be used to retrieve a ring from a drain pipe or disposal. I just used it to retrieve a cover from a to go dish that had fallen underneath one of my Ikea drawers. I want sure whether the tool was strong enough to hold onto the cover but it did the trick. If you ever see these for sale anywhere I recommend them. Even if you don't use them a lot they are still with keeping in your house.
