DonSail Fruit Picker Pole Telescoping 35–170 in — Steel long-handle with foam-cushion basket, ladder-free harvest

The DonSail Fruit Picker Pole is a telescoping, all-steel fruit harvesting tool with a twist-on metal basket and foam cushion that reaches 35–170 inches for safe, ladder-free picking.

Designed for gardeners, orchardists and homeowners who need a dependable way to harvest high or awkwardly placed fruit, this picker combines a heavy-duty extendable steel pole with a rounded metal basket and protective foam insert. It’s built to handle apples, oranges, mangoes, avocados, pears, nuts and other tree fruit while minimizing bruising and reducing the need to climb. Assembly is tool-free and the pole stores compactly when collapsed.

How long is the pole and can I adjust it to fit different tree heights?

The DonSail picker extends in sections from a compact 35 inches up to a full 170 inches so you can reach tall branches safely from the ground. The sections screw together to lock at the desired length, letting you customize reach for multiple tree sizes and orchard rows.

• Telescopes from 35" to 170" for short shrubs up to tall trees.
• Sectional screw-lock assembly secures each length without tools.
• 1" diameter commercial-grade steel pole for rigidity at full extension.

Will the metal basket keep fruit from getting bruised when it falls?

The basket includes a molded foam cushion at its base shaped to cradle fruit and absorb impact as items come out of the tree. Combined with the rounded metal rim and open design that guides fruit into the bowl, the setup reduces scuffs and pressure marks compared with bare drop pickup.

• Metal twist-on basket with bowl-shaped foam insert for gentle landings.
• Open mesh sides let debris fall through while supporting whole fruit.
• Rounded rim helps guide fruit away from stems and into the cushion.

Is this picker durable and easy to handle during long harvesting sessions?

Made from premium steel for both the pole and basket, the tool balances strength with manageable weight so you can work longer without fatigue. The plastic top handle offers a comfortable grip while the overall construction resists bending and wear typical of backyard and small-farm use.

• Commercial-grade steel pole and basket for long-lasting durability.
• Lightweight design compared with traditional wooden poles for easier maneuvering.
• Secure threaded joints minimize wobble at extended lengths.

How simple is assembly, and what tools do I need to start picking?

Assembly is straightforward: the pole sections screw together and the metal basket twists on the head—no additional tools required. Most users can fully assemble the picker in about five minutes, making it a quick addition to harvest day routines.

• Tool-free assembly—twist and screw sections together by hand.
• Quick attach metal basket locks into the pole head securely.
• Compact collapse for storage when not in use.

Who is this for: The DonSail Fruit Picker Pole suits homeowners, gardeners, small-scale orchard owners and anyone who wants a safer, faster method to harvest fruit without ladders. It’s ideal for mixed-fruit yards and seasonal harvesting of apples, pears, citrus, mangoes, avocados, nuts and other tree produce where reach, fruit protection and tool reliability matter.
