Suction-Grip Handle for Heavy Lifting

Back Saver. The Handle on Demand (HOD) uses suction to provide a convenient handhold on any nonporous surface. According to the maker, the product works well on glass, metal, stone, laminates, and prefinished wood surfaces — but not on raw wood. The HOD Single ($8) has one suction pad and can support 100 pounds; the HOD Double ($11) has two pads and can handle 200 pounds. FastCap, 888/443-3748, fastcap.com
