Works great

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This worked great when we were working on my car. We had dropped a few screws in a really tight space under the drivers seat, and this tool easily extended and made contact with an ease. I really like how it’s about as small as a pen, even with the little clasp thing on the side. Works great and would be a great addition to anyone.

Nifty tool

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this magnet! It feels very sturdy in my hand. I like that it has a comfort grip handle. I was able to lift a 2lb metal plate with it and pull a rolling cart. It's a pretty fun tool to have. It has definitely saved me from having to bend over a bunch of times at work.

Must-have!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Craftsman Compact Magnetic Pickup Tool is a must-have time-saver. You won't have to get down on your hands and knees to search for dropped screws, bolts, washers, or whatever else you might drop. It extends to about 25 inches, but collapses to the size of a pen. It also has a clip for easy pocket storage. It can pick up items up to 3 lbs, and surprisingly, it easily picked up my tape measure. I need multiple of these, one for the home, gara...

So convenient to use!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Craftsman Auto Telescoping Magnetic Pickup Tool is so convenient! I used it to pick up a bolt that I had lost under my car seat, while putting the glove box back in it. Its easy to use, and very helpful at getting things tpu can't reach/find. Its high quality and I love that it can hold up to 3 lbs!

Great for lost bolts

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been wanting to add one of these to my toolbox for a while now. Figured I'd give this one a try. It is very light weight and not bulky at all. Not sure about the 3lb pick up capacity as it won't pick up a small can of condensed milk. Will work just fine for dropped bolts in your motor though. If you're just looking for a retrievel tool, this is perfect.

Perfectly sized for your tool belt or bench top.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfectly sized for your tool belt or bench top. Long extension reaches deep inside tight small crevices. Magnetic tip is strong enough to told two metal screws that have fallen from your reach. I highly recommend this product.

Perfect tool for every tool box

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the perfect size telescopic tool to have handy in your toolbox. I've used it multiple times since I got it. First, I was putting together a piece of furniture. As I laid out all the pieces, I had to keep getting up to grab screws. Instead I grabbed the magnet tool and could pick up the screws etc as I was putting the furniture together. Then I was fishing some thermostat wires through the wall. This worked perfectly to grab a metal anch...

Very handy tool to have

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am reviewing the Craftsman telescoping magnetic pickup tool. It will save me a ton of time. The magnet is strong enough to grab dropped bolts and screws without struggling, and the telescoping feature makes it easy to reach tight spots under the hood or in the garage. It feels sturdy, extends smoothly, and is way more convenient than trying to fish things out by hand. Simple tool, but surprisingly handy. So far the heaviest thing I’ve picked ...

Best magnet tool I’ve ever had

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best magnetic retrieving tool I have ever owned. The quality exceeds the magnet tools of different brands that I have had in the past. This one is built to last. It is very compact and has a pocket clamp so that it can be easily accessible and retrieved in a pinch. The magnet is quite large (largest I’ve personally seen) and holds an impressive 3 pounds of weight. Even when the tool is fully extended, it has no problem adhering to...
