Long Reach Comfort Wipe Tissue Grip Ideal for Personal Hygiene Ergonomic Design

When someone has reach issues - either due to obesity, back issues, or any other number of reasons - something as basic as going to the bathroom becomes incredibly difficult. I had gotten to that point and finally decided to purchase this product. I bought my first one about 6 months ago. While the handle eventually weakened and broke after 6 months (I just bought a new one) I think for the freedom it brings and the price it's a wonderful value. I'm sure it broke because I used too much pressure on it. With the new one - I am being more gentle with it. Because of the angle you are using it IS easy to put too much pressure on the shaft of it and therefore it weakens over time. As for the other one (now that it is shorter) I now keep it discreetly at the bottom of my purse (in a ziplock bag with baby wipes) for use when I am away from home. The reach isn't quite as long - obviously - but it works wonderfully in a pinch when I'm away from home. For anyone who is dealing with issues like this I HIGHLY recommend this product. Also, don't even bother using toilet paper - it's ridiculously inadequate when using this device....and messy! I use baby wipes (it should go without saying that these should never be flushed). I fold the baby wipe in half and wrap it around the top and tuck it into the slots to hold it in place. It makes for a much cleaner and more sanitary bathroom experience. :-)
