Product Description

The STAUBER Best Bulb Changer is a heavy duty, top of the line bulb changer with unparalleled reliability and durability. It is the first light bulb changer specifically designed for the heavier LED bulbs. If used correctly with the included bulb cleaning device, it will NEVER drop a light bulb. With a press-fit steel pin, the suction cup will never spin. With an embedded steel nut, the thumb screw will never strip. With supports around the suction cup, the bulb will never wobble. With pre-assembled wire loops, you will never have to feed a string through tiny holes. The STAUBER Best Bulb Changer fits any standard universal threaded pole and will work for most smooth surfaced bulbs. Its rugged and thoroughly tested design guarantees that your light bulb changing experience will be simple and reliable. Every time. (Remember: Always wear safety glasses when changing light bulbs; And turn off the light bulb before changing it.) (Pole not included.)

Fits Perfectly on a Swiffer Handle / Be Sure to Clean Bulbs Thoroughly
I purchased this a while ago but kept putting off using it because I didn't want to drag out the long extension pole, but today I discovered that it fits perfectly on a swiffer handle.Although I used the included microfiber cleaning cloth, the first dead bulb lost adhesion from the suction cup while I was lowering the pole. I was able to catch the lightbulb so catastrophe avoided there. The bulb was still dusty so I'm sure that affected the adhesion. The second bulb went more smoothly after I made multiple passes with the dusting cloth and made sure to lower the pole slowly and straight up and down. The suction cup does not work on textured bulbs, but I was able to remove one by adding packing tape to the suction cup.

    Followed instructions and was easily able to remove some 26ft high heavy halogen bulbs the old owner had left and swapped them out for new led. Used with separately purchased pole. Was far better than the small suction cup that came with the pole. Worth spending a little extra on this large sturdy suction cup. The cleaning cloth was great. Good value, sturdy, saved me from hiring out my bulb replacement.

  • Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2021
    I used this kit to clean and remove BR40 flood light incandescent bulbs (replaced with BR30 LED bulbs). I combined it with a 4-8 ft. extension pole (Mr Longarm 9248 Twist-Lok Extension Pole) and was easily able to change bulbs in a 14ft. ceiling (no ladder required). The suction cup was fairly strong on both types of bulbs... I never felt like I was going to lose a bulb. I like that the suction cup is large and reinforced. I also like that the device has a threaded end and features a metal screw for easily mounting to poles & keeping the device secure. The metal suction release feels sturdy and the pull string is easy to operate - it doesn't take much force to dislodge the suction cup from a bulb. Once I got the hang of working with the suction cup, changing a bulb in the ceiling took less than 2 minutes.

    The new BR30 bulbs I was using were pretty slick. After some of the new bulbs were screwed in, the suction cup would start to slip a bit on the bulb heads... this wasn't a worry though because I could feel the bulbs planted in their sockets. To be 100% sure the bulbs were fully seated, I simply re-attached the device and gently tried to screw in the bulbs further. I never felt like the bulbs were in danger of dropping. I think this was likely due to the brand of bulbs I was using.

    All in all, this is a simple, low cost and highly effective bulb changing (and cleaning) kit. It saved me from getting on a ladder to change bulbs in a high ceiling. Well done.

    I’m short. Not teeny tiny short, but shorter than everyone else in the house (except the dog.) We have high ceilings - 10-12 feet in some spots. And nobody wants the added headache of dragging around the furniture so you can place a ladder under all those light canisters just so you can change the ¥£% bulbs.

    So I gave this a shot. I was skeptical. But it worked reasonably well! Things to consider:

    - if you’re changing bulbs that haven’t been cleaned, the suction cup *will* have trouble sticking. Use the included cleaning cloth, but ALSO keep a paper towel handy to clean the suction cup between bulbs.

    I had to change 15 bulbs; this tool let me do them by myself, and without the need for a ladder, stepstool, or even a chair. Definitely got my money’s worth.

    I have 14 foot ceilings and for the last few years would wait until I had several bulbs out, and then Id hire a handyman to bring a ladder and change them. Well after covid its hard to find a handyman, so I noticed this bulb changer and figured Id give it a go since trying this at $60 is better than paying for a $300 handyman. I bought CREE 2700K LED BULBS and when my Stauber pole arrived I was ready to roll. I discovered most of my bulbs were old fashioned glass incandescent flood light bulbs so the new energy efficient LED bulbs made the old ones look terrible so this was now a bulb replacement mission. I bought 4 more cases of CREE LED bulbs and turned this into a project. The Stauber pole works PERFECTLY. The little terry cloth shower cap fits over the suction cup to clean the dust from the bulb, I even sprayed with a bit of Windex for even better squeaky clean. Got good contact with suction cup and then turned. Carefully lowered the bulbs because they were GLASS. I made a landing pad with a folded blanket and a pillow to release the bulbs to. The little wire release works well too!!! Put the new CREE plastic LED bulb on the suction cup, extended the Stauber pole and screwed in the bulb. Now do that 80 times, lol. A VERY HAPPY AND SATISFYING HOME PROJECT even though it was not intended to be. I cant imagine any other pole working BETTER than this one. Its fantastic. No more handyman bulb changing!!! The key is to BUY THE CORRECT SIZED POLE WITH THE CHANGER SO YOU DONT HAVE TO FUSS WITH FINDING ONE. ITS WORTH IT.

    This and the Stauber bulb changers are the 2 best items I've ever purchased for home maintenance. Without this, we would probably have to pay $300 every time we need the bulb changed, if its even worth anyone's time. Our ceiling is unusually high and the bulb is right in the middle so I don't know how any ladder could even sit anywhere to reach it safely. I purchased this 2 years ago and took it out the other day to catch some birds that flew into the garage. Without this, there's no way we could've chased the birds out. Birds nets are too short. This pole is a life saver. The adjustability aspect made it perfect for the task. Even if you don't need to change bulbs...have one on hand because you never know.

    I’m a 74 year old woman and I didn’t want to bother my neighbours to bring a high ladder up the stairs to reach a high ceiling to change a light bulb. I found this gadget and it was perfect. I screwed it on an existing extendable pole I had then I used the little white cover first to clean the bulb as they instructed. Then I attached the clip with the string for pulling down the suction cup and raised the pole and pushed gently on the bulb and turned it (Had to say to myself - righty tighty- lefty lucy so I could remember which way to screw it) to unscrew it and pulled gently and brought the pole down. Then I pushed the new bulb on the suction cup and raised the bulb to the socket.. Only took a few turns. Just pulled gently on the string to release the suction cup and voila it is in and working perfectly now. So easy anyone can do it.

    I have a 14’ ceiling in my kitchen and no ladder that I had would reach up to the ceiling to change the pot-lights so I thought that I could use this option. Sadly they didn’t mention that it doesn’t work with all types of pot-lights so I had to return it. I guess most updated pot-lights have a rim that needs to be removed before the lightbulb can be replaced. As a result, this type of device doesn’t do the trick. The extension pole was way more expensive than it should have been in my opinion and to make it worse, I had to pay an extra, non-refundable customs charge. An expensive mistake, hope this helps you avoid making the same one I did. Make sure you know if this device will work on your specific pot-lights before purchasing!

    Worked perfectly. I bough the changer to change an indoor flood light bulb about 10 feet over a stairwell railing.
    Note: Be sure to use the cleaning pad first on both bulbs (the old and new). I took a damp paper towel and wetted the suction cup prior to using it. I tried the new bulb in the suction cup at the floor level, it was very strong. Excellent product!

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 24, 2023
    I noted another review mention problems with the suction not really working, but took a chance anyway as most other reviews were positive. I've experienced the same issue, it just doesn't grip the bulb so removing bulbs at a height is precarious as you have to carefully balance them on top as you lower them.

    I even tryied placing different GU10 bulbs right in the middle by hand, but none grabbed.
