Review: Brilliant for getting them apples! - Brilliant. Improved my harvest of Pippins, get them apples from over three meters up in the tree. Review: Simple to use - Have used this only a couple of times but works well enough. Depending on the size of the apples (or other fruit) being picked you can easily get 4 average sized cookers in the net part. It might be time consuming to empty a heavily laden branch this way but much cheaper, and potentially safer, than having a very large pair of steps placed precariously under outlying branches where it is not possible to place a standard ladder. Well wort the price. ## Features - Reach high fruit: No more climbing ladders to reach the highest juicy fruit, as the pole extends up to 2.4 metres giving you ample reach up into your fruit trees - Safer crop picking: The picker is lightweight at 750g and easy to handle even at full extension, meaning that you can keep your feet firmly on the ground and still harvest your apples - Protects your fruit: The wire teeth around the rim of the picking head cut the stalk of the fruit allowing it to drop safely into the cloth bag, preventing the bruising and damage that can occur when apples fall to the ground - Versatile: The picker can be used to harvest other fruit that grows up high such as pears and plums - Dimensions: The picker extends from 0.9 metres to 2.4 metres and the picking head has a diameter of 15cm ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B013GCN7DU | | Best Sellers Rank | 37,686 in Garden ( See Top 100 in Garden ) 65 in Pick-Up Tools | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (957) | | Date First Available | 5 Aug. 2015 | | Manufacturer | Selections | | Manufacturer reference | GFD711 | | Package Dimensions | 93.47 x 16.26 x 4 cm; 700 g | | Part number | GFD711 | ## Images ![Deluxe Lightweight Telescopic Apple & Fruit Picker - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51eSJU0HziL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Would this be ok for plum picking please?** A: I think it would work, yes. The space between the prongs is quite small anyway, and if the plums are ripe a bit of jiggling would get them in the basket for sure. I guess it depends what kind of plums you have too... If they are tightly spaced then you might find it more tedious. Also, If you're dissatisfied they are very responsive (my first one arived a bit bent from the post, and they sent me another straight away). **Q: Would this work for cherry tree picking?** A: Depends on size cherries . Would they slip through prongs of basket? **Q: is it any good for clumps (tightly packed sets of apples or pears please?) thank you** A: Not really unless they are quite small. The net is about 5/6 inches in diameter, perfect for Bramley cookers if taken singly or in pairs if they are slightly smaller than normal. Eating apples should take two but any more would be pure luck! This is still a good item and worth the money. **Q: Would this be suitable for picking figs** A: If the fruits are very ripe, I would worry about damage to the fruit and soiling the cloth bag. Best for firm fruit picking. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant for getting them apples! *by S***E on 19 October 2025* Brilliant.

Well wort the price. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ it helps me reach the high apples *by E***Y on 24 September 2024* the Selections Deluxe Lightweight Telescopic Apple & Fruit Picker arrived and comes in 2 pieces - the red head with the bag on it, and then the telescopic pole itself (you screw the head to the pole, its easy, no tools needed). To be honest, I wasn't expecting too much from this at the price, but its really quite sturdy enough for apple picking and has a good amount of reach (easily 8 feet), without me even having to get up on steps, though I will have to for the ones at the very top. You hover the bag picker bit under the apple you want, and keeping the bag level (ish) you raise the bag just enough so that the fork part of the head (the red bits) can pull at the stalk and your apple drops to the bag. The only downside, is that if the apples are in a bunch of 3 and are quite chunky in size, you sometimes end up having one of them drop to the ground and of course, will bruise. The only way to get round this is hand picking, and I haven't the time or a ladder long enough for the top of the tree. So that's the compromise, some falls. Otherwise, overall, Im very pleased with this, its even allowing me to place the rod over the neighbours fence and pick the overhanging apples (my neighbours don't want them) without having to ask If I can go round with my ladder for picking, as I have had to in previous years. If/when the bag does fail with use, it will be easy to cut another one out of material and sew it on to the head. You could almost certainly use it to retrieve tennis balls and other small things, from somewhere like a garage roof too, should need arise! ## Frequently Bought Together - Selections Deluxe Lightweight Telescopic Apple & Fruit Picker - Selections (5 Drawer Traditional Wooden Apple Storage Rack - Paper Fibre Apple & Fruit Storage Trays (Set of 5) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/48434846-deluxe-lightweight-telescopic-apple-and-fruit-picker](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/48434846-deluxe-lightweight-telescopic-apple-and-fruit-picker) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
