I thought it would be fun to have a thread where people can recommend useful products that they have personally used.
It could be anything from an "As Seen on TV" product that actually works or just something that someone randomly found that is helpful.
The only pseudo-rule is people should post pictures of the helpful item.

Okay, I'll start. The item that inspired me to make this thread is this:
NAP Massaging Bed Rest
It just arrived a half hour ago, and I just started trying it out. It's glorious. It's a great bed rest for watching TV in bed or in a chair, but it also has three massage modes, a built in book lamp, cup holders, and firm support arm rests. It's heave!!!
My bad, it's a product that heals the horrible skin on peoples heels(or other rough skin). It honestly works extremely well, almost too well. I had to stop using it because my feet lost traction and I was sliding on the hard wood floor. I thought everyone heard of it by now.

Unfortunately, it's not super cheap. It's around $99.00, but it is really nice. The construction is great too, so it won't be falling apart anytime soon.
Here are a couple of other nice features:
- 3 levels of massage (different intensities)
- Fairly firm arms for better support
- Cup holder
- Adjustable reading light
It's a chunk of change, but from looking online it is much cheaper than most other items in this category. I highly recommend it.
Do you mean the mouse on the armrest itself? I wouldn't recommend that only because the controls on on one arm and a cup holder ont he other. You could have a mouse in front without the arms getting in the way, though.
I found one of these PS3 controllers at Wal-mart for about $20. They can also be used as a controller on RU, since they are wired. They work really good.

I don't know what particular brand those up in the picture are, but I got me a 156 piece set of craftmans. They are essential for every man who is the man of his house. HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting some tools if you don't already have them.
