Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent Comment: This vendor gave top-notch performance in all categories: product was as-advertised, shipped immediately. I would recommend this vendor. Customer Rating: Summary: You'll Be SICK of Apples! Comment: I purchased 2 of these baskets in the Fall of 2008 (one for my father as a Christmas present). Once I received it, I bought two, 1" diameter, six foot, wooden rods from Home Depot ($7.79 in Canada). I affixed these to the baskets in seconds with just a Philips screwdriver.
Several months before, I was able to locate several varieties of apple trees on common property in my area and I always had a mind to pick the apples. The trouble is, like most people, I didn't want to tie my heavy ladder to my car and go picking. With this basket affixed to a 6 foot rod, I'd just toss it into my car and go.
When I came upon the site, many of the apples in the lower branches were already picked away by people visiting the recreation centre nearby, but the best apples were higher in the tree. These were the ripest and largest of all.
After about an hour, I had picked approximately four bags of apples or about 60lbs. worth. At $0.98/lb. (avg. price in Canada), this little basket and rod paid for themselves 3x over and I have a LOT more organic apples to pick (among other things!).
I took all of the apples home and spent a couple of hours peeling and cutting them into freezer bags. We plan to use the frozen slices all year for apple pies, apple crisps and apple bran muffins, all which are fairly expensive at the stores and not organic.
Needless to say, the basket works great and is of superb strength and build quality. I am indeed very happy and would recommend it wholeheartedly.
Customer Rating: Summary: apple picker Comment: Very easy to use, can pick several apples at a time, the only negative is it gets tangled up in branches. Customer Rating: Summary: Apple picker Comment: I bought this item for my brother. He fell off of a ladder a few years ago while picking apples so he was very appreciative. He said it worked very well for him.
It came in a timely manner and I am very happy with the service I received. Customer Rating: Summary: Fruit picker Comment: This product works exactly as advertised. The basket is well made and attaches easily to your pole. The price was a bargain and the
shipping was super fast. You will not be disappointed.
