Hmm. This looks remotely interesting…
I’ll pass… Too lazy to walk all the way to the rolling chair! Make the same thing in a bed and I’m in for 1.
I’ve seen a video of something similar on youtube.com.
That is beyond awesome.
I like it but I’m not fond of the Burnt Orange upholstery. I wonder if it’s available in another color, like Harvest Gold or Avocado Green?
You see those at Burning Man
He isn’t disabled…yet.
What, no built-in beer cooler?
This is nothing. Some guy put a 650cc motorcycle in his la-z-boy. Just imaging being able to burn rubber in your recliner!
Motorized la-z-boy video at
so this is the best argue for pblic healt hinsurance… or would you be helped this way if you would be screwed by a HMO???
I wonder if her got that at for little to no cost out of pocket. Shouldn’t he be at the grand canyon waving?
He*
That kicks ass. But those tools at the lower right look weird. Crappy photo or crappy Photoshop?
@Pirateguiller: What tools at the right? Maybe they look weird because they aren’t there? Those at the bottom left look fine; a spanner, a tape measure, and a couple of things the picture’s too fuzzy to identify.
The weirdest part is the lower right seems to be at the left. O.o
Damn, JH beat me to it.
Maybe JH meant to the lower right of the blue Jeep. Or maybe JH is dyslexic. By saying ‘spanner’ instead of wrench, maybe JH is from the UK (after all, they *do* drive on the opposite side of the road)
(or was it pirateguillermo that said all that? I’m confused..)
Perfect for when you’ve got a DUI and have no way to drive to the bar…
I see some serious CG (Center of Gravity) problems here. First incline he tries to tackle and he’ll be experiencing serious head trauma!
Doesn’t look anything like Steven Hawkins!
looks like these latest couple of posts are for people going to Burning Man (burningman.com)
This is just before he hit the telephone pole.
It looks like he could have put the recliner the other way and it would have been more stable.. or maybe he preferred the precariousness of it all.
@kilo – nope. Look at the angle of the bottom of the recliner, and think about it – if he mounted it the other way around, it would be constantly trying to dump him out forward whenever it wasn’t reclined. Plus, falling out of it is about a million times funnier this way.
Who knew Laz-y-Boy was making electric “cars” way back in 1973? I’m not sure about the crash worthiness though. SUV vs. Laz-y-Boy? I’m betting on the SUV.
Am I the only one that thinks that the wheelie castors should be on the back instead of the front?
@Derelict The CG problems are mostly solved by the 50 kilos of lead acid battery in the base of the wheelchair. Keeps the CG on those chairs nice and low.
all it needs is a mounted basket for carrying a case of beer.
@Drewsky – nah – once again, it’s a million times funnier with the wheelie castors [sic] where they are.
It’s physically impossible that no one here said “Dale Jr”. -> http://images.chron.com/blogs/motorsports/Dale%20Jr%20Mug.jpg
This looks just like a guy I know….
is it just me…or could this guy pass for Dale Jr?
This post opened my eyes to a world of motorized furniture & racing of same. How fortunate so much is posted online so I can enjoy it from the comfort of my kitchen!
Wow my friend you made it into the big time!
If you have a remote control lazy boy? You might be a redneck! lol
what makes this even better, is the Atari 2600 joystick controller–
Is that Dale Earnhardt, Jr.?
Sweet! Redneck riding scooter! I gotta git me one of them right there!
Putting the laze in Laz-E-Boy…
Grandma left me her scooter in her will
Hey! Will Medicaid pay for one of these?
Where exactly is the center of gravity right now? It looks like if he rested his head back, he’d fall over… forget about accelerating.
