I don’t know if anyone has seen this yet, but watch this.

I remember seeing this awhile back. Unfortunately it seems to be vaporware. They tried to fund it via Indiegogo. They ended up raising $2600 out of the needed $100,000 before the campaign closed out.
That’s cool. But I know a few mechanics that are tinkering on being obese…that thing would push them over the edge.
Overly complicated
Too many moving parts . . . more things to break
Will the batteries be available, when they won’t hold a charge . . . ?!
How expensive are these batteries . . . ?!
I strongly suspect it won’t work very well, when I need to work under a truck, which is parked in the dirt, and it can’t be moved
This is just a gadget, or toy, if you will

Or “catching some rays”:
Go ahead and buy one, in that case

I don’t need one.
I have a lift. 
I just thought it was cool.

Not my cup of tea but a pretty fascinating and innovative device with some serious engineering involved.
I want one!
I’ll be a sourpuss
I don’t even want one
I have to ask how much it sells for. Therefore, I can’t afford it.
If the thing had a pot on it you’d never have to get up again…
The Garage Journal referred to it as a 1000 dollar item to be marketed by DR equipment. That was a couple of years ago so I assume the market and price worked against it.
Not that I’d really want one but one benefit I could see is that it might save the joints and spine of a mechanic. It’s very easy to break/separate/fracture something with the most benign movement.
A downside might be dropping a wrench onto a lever and accidentally raising the thing while you’re under the car…
It’s just some designer’s imagination run amok. I doubt if they sold a single one.
I used to have dreams like that too. Especially after pepperoni pizza & beer.
If the thing had a pot on it you’d never have to get up again…
Or, if you had some pot while on it you’d never have to get up again…

I saw this a few years ago, I think on one of the “invention shows” that were running at the time.
I researched it a little at the time, just out of curiosity and at the time DR…as in the DR mower were going to produce it, but I think that fell through for a lack of serious buyers.
I figured that if I bought one, I’d have to invest in more bandages. The thing raises pretty fast and I figured I’d be the first to fuse my nose to a hot Cat. Hell I’d have lumps all over my forehead. It’s bad enough now…turning and banging your head on the lift as it is.

Spend the money on a lift.
