Oak Leaf Fruit Picker Pole with Basket — 13 ft Telescoping Harvest Tool, Lightweight & Rust-Resistant

Designed for home orchards, urban gardens and seasonal harvests, this Oak Leaf fruit picker combines a sturdy iron basket, lightweight stainless-steel poles and easy-to-use hand clamps so you can pick apples, pears, peaches and other tree fruit with less effort and no ladder. The kit includes a non-slip handle and multiple 16.3" extension poles that slip together to reach 5.5 ft, 8 ft, 13 ft and — when standing — up to about 20 ft in reach. Anti-rust coatings and a foam pad protect fruit from bruising while the tool’s low weight helps reduce wrist and back strain.

How does the adjustable length work, and how far can I reach?

The pole system uses a 16.1" handle plus nine 16.3" extension sections that lock together by hand-tightened double metal clamps. You add or remove extension pieces to set the pole to common useful lengths quickly without tools. When fully assembled and used from the ground with reach and arm extension, many users can access branches up to roughly 20 ft above the ground.

• Includes: 1 non-slip handle and 9 extension poles (16.3" each)
• Quick assembly by inserting poles and tightening hand clamps
• Typical set lengths: 5.5 ft, 8 ft, 13 ft and extendable reach when standing
• 0.4mm stainless steel wall thickness for strength

Will this picker protect delicate fruit from damage?

The iron basket has a protective foam pad and a basket gap sized to cradle fruit while teeth guide stems into the basket. The foam cushion reduces impact and abrasion so soft fruits arrive in better condition than with rigid grabbers. The basket’s anti-corrosion finish preserves its shape and prevents sharp rust from touching fruit.

• Basket diameter: 5.5" with 0.79" gap spacing
• Included foam pad cushions fruit during capture
• Anti-rust coating prevents corrosion and sharp edges
• Teeth help release stems without squeezing fruit excessively

How heavy and durable is the tool for repeated seasonal use?

Weighing about 2.7 lbs, the Oak Leaf picker is light enough to use for extended picking sessions with less wrist fatigue than heavier models. The internal stainless-steel poles are engineered at 0.4mm thickness to resist bending while keeping weight low. Durable clamps and metal basket construction make it suitable for many harvest seasons when stored and rinsed after use.

• Total weight: approx. 2.7 lbs for easy handling
• Stainless-steel pole interior (0.4mm) prevents flexing
• Double metal hand-tight clamps avoid tool dependence
• Anti-corrosion finish for long-term outdoor use

Which fruits and picking situations is this ideal for?

The Oak Leaf pole is designed for a wide variety of tree and vine fruits where stems can be hooked or pulled into a basket: apples, pears, peaches, plums, citrus, mangoes, persimmons and more. It eliminates the need to balance on ladders or climb ladders for moderate heights, helps at orchard maintenance days and suits small-scale commercial use when many trees are within reach. The tool is especially useful where gentle fruit handling is important to reduce bruising and loss.

• Suitable for apples, plums, oranges, avocados, peaches, mangoes, etc.
• Good for backyard orchards, community gardens, small farms
• Best for picking from ground level up to tall branches with standing reach
• Convenient for seniors or helpers who should avoid ladders
