HIT OR MISS? Good Idea….But Too Embarassing To Use In Public?

The company describes this item like this (at www.UprightSleeper.com):  "The Uprightsleeper is the ONLY real solution to sleeping while sitting. It is ideal for use on a plane, bus,train, car back seat or wheelchair. There have been several attempts by inventors to create a solution to the global problem of sleeping while sitting upright to no avail….until now! The UpRightSleeper Original.  Made of very durable latex-free materials, is antimicrobial and can be wiped clean.  It has an optional cover that doubles as a tote bag.  It is collapsible and easy to pack (8’’x8’’x2’’)."

That is all well and good, but it just looks so darn silly, would you use this in public?  On a bus? Plane?  The company calls this the winner of "Best Invention of the Americas."  What the heck does "..of the Americas" mean.

It sells for about $40.

Hit or Miss?  Well, I like the concept but my self esteem would prevent me from ever using this in public.

Regrettably...I give this a MISS!
