Pickleball Picker Upper Holds 14 Balls, Pickleball Pickup Tube & Retriever Collector with Shoulder Strap, Easy Pickup Portable Ball Holder

After spending years bending over to pick up stray pickleballs on the court, I figured someone must have invented something to make the job easier. And boy, this pickleball picker-upper fits the bill. It works like a charm. You just put the tube over a pickleball and press down & the ball is sucked up into the tube. It's fast and requires no bending over. And getting the balls out of the tube is a cinch. The opposite end has a long rubber band, so you just move the band around the top of the tube and then you can empty the balls. We used it today with 2 courts' full of players and everyone agreed it was a fabulous tool. And it holds 14 balls. I highly recommend it for anyone who plays pickleball, indoors or outdoors.

I don't have to bend over to pickup the balls. it is quick to load and empty.

I wanted this so my husband doesn’t have to bend over due to lower back pain and it works perfectly. Grabs and holds onto the ball very tightly and releases easily for the next ball in line to be picked up. Very easy to remove the balls just release the rubber strap opposite of the picker up side tilt the tube to get a ball. Easy to carry looks and feels as though it will hold up to some wear and tare. I do feel that it is on the pricey side and for that reason 4-stars.

It does just what it says and picks up the balls easily without having to bend. A ball may get stuck in the end if you fill it all the way up but it is a small inconvenience for the great tool.

This is an excellent pickleball picker upper tube. It holds 14 balls, which should be plenty. I know some tubes can hold 17 balls, but this one is a bit shorter so a little easier to handle. The construction is excellent. The bottom part which grab the ball is very sturdy and should last a long time. On the top of the tube is a band that holds the balls in place for transport, and then easily removed to empty balls out of the tube. I like the tube being transparent, although I'm sure in time it will get scratched up. There's a nice, adjustable carrying strap that can be easily removed if you don't want it. I'm very happy with this tube. It will save my back from constantly bending over picking up balls during long practice sessions. The tube isn't as necessary during regular play, but comes in very handy when practicing and lots of balls are all over the court. This is highly recommended.

This ball picker works well for picking up pickleballs off the court. It is actually quite a bit more durable than I anticipated. The plastic tube is pretty thick and should be very durable. Although it is good to be aware that the durable design also adds a bit of weight that you will feel when using this. The rubber band might be seen by some as a weak point in the design. I was more worried about losing it out on the court because you would have to remove it to dump the balls out of the tube. But I find that I don't even bother to use it because I am not relying on the tube to store balls beyond just picking them up and then dumping them into a rolling ball hopper.

I was a little worried the clear plastic on this ball tube would be too thin, but it's actually quite thick and durable. The tube has more heft to it because of that, so it does feel like it will last a long time. I have another ball tube, but I like that this one is clear. I can see clearly when it's full and ready to be dumped. My other ball tube is opaque and kind of surprises me when balls start to pop out, because it's full. I usually go through a hopper of about 100 balls before I start picking them up, so I'm on a mission when I start getting them with the tube. The bottom part that pops in the ball is very sturdy and seems like it will last a long time too. The top has a rubber band to keep the balls from popping out which is nice. The band will probably break at some point, but you should be able to replace it with any grocery store rubber band. The tube has plenty of space for the balls to roll freely. My other tube is tighter and sometimes the balls can get a little stuck.

taller than my kitchen counter. I have not been able to fully load it to test how many balls it will hold, but it is a lot. I ordered because I liked the idea of being able to have a dual purpose of pickup balls without bending over and storing the balls all in one step. I have been providing equipment for a noncompetitive league of neighbors who want to learn to play and just get together for some exercise. The ball windup all over the parking lot where we have two courts marked off in the drive lanes.

Product is great! Only issue was how long it took to arrive. 2 months is a bit long when it shows in stock.
