Who remembers the RONCO adverts that used to pop up on our television screens.?
The veggie matic carrot slicer,the bladed comb where you never needed to visit a barber ever again or the device for old folk to put on their shoes without getting out of bed in the morning.ha ha
This reminds me of those products......buy one,use it once or twice and then never use it.!!!
It will end up as a computer chair. |

Don't need one, but would love to have one!

I like both ideas
that chair looks like it would be real handy and a lot easier on my back and knees
cheers

| That chair looks great, untill it operates when you are under the car. |

It seems to have an adverse effect on one's memory.
The guy has to keep going back to the tool box and then leaves whatever he was doing under the truck and goes look at the tyres. |

Most people work in a small garage so this chair would be useless. Can you imagine trying to push yourself over trailing leads,bits of off cut metal,tools lying around,or on an uneven surface etc
If you had a workshop the size they have in the advert and the money to go with it,would you not have a four poster lift of some sort or a really good pit to work from.
Looking at the snap on tool cabinet you could buy a lift for probably less. |

If I had a workshop that size, it would be full of cars  |
