Unbelievable! How does anyone think you are getting a workout? You are not doing anything, the chair is. Another sign that we have such a lazy society that wants the easy way out. Are people really falling for this and wasting their hard earn money?

Maybe this thing should only be used during lunch, snack time and other times you feel the need to stuff
your face.. Come on people, we were'nt made to sit
around and eat. Get off your butt and get some exercise. No pain No gain, unless your using this chair????

Has anyone else seen the episode of Ellen DeGeneres' talk show where she tries this same chair and has her guests try to talk to her on it? If you thought this video was funny, look for the one of Ellen...

I saw Ellen Degeneres demo this onher show - it was a RIOT! She had an audience member come up and join her... I think as a gag gift it has a place, but not in the exercize arena, especially at thast price!

This article cracked me up, sitting here trying to figure out what it would be like and then read the full article.

Um, stunning. What company, I wonder, could actually looked at this thing on paper or in a business plan and have said, "That's the ticket! We're gonna rake it in!" The specifics, I warrant, are even funnier than the article or the videos....

Megan, Ladera Ranch, CA — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 03:22:01 GMT

This is hilarious and seems to be definitely a gimmick. The thing is, no one even talks about the "hula" part. I can tell you that nothing here resembles hula in the slightest as I am a hula dancer, in fact, it's almost rather insulting except for the fact that it's just so silly!

You need to get with Allison Linn, with MSNBC "Ads of the Weird," and combine her Cheetos story with your “Hula Chair” for a really funny spot. And please post a video of one of you eating Cheetos while riding the chair.

Don't laugh too hard! My wife and I had to talk her mom out of picking one of this coccyx-snappers up at a flea market after getting a (must have been a joke) tip from a 'friend'. I can see getting a workout with this- for your forearms as you hold on for dear life! Priceless video. I think I woke the neighbors laughing so hard.

Sandra, Honolulu, HI — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 16:06:39 GMT

OK, I'm from Hawaii. This has nothing to do with hula. But after watching the video I think if the inventor had added a vibrator, he may have had a winner. My sides hurt after reading this review. Too funny.

I think it would be fun for hearing music and watching TV, maybe... But never in an office environment. It's kind of like a tred mill, but you're sitting down. Then again, I don't really see the benefit, because you're not really working the muscles such as the legs...reminds me more of a blender somehow! hehehe :D It is funny though!

I had no idea my parents had this chair sitting in our living room until my one of my cousins pointed at it during thanksgiving dinner. I shrugged when she asked what it was, so she went over to test it out -- omg I hadn't laughed that hard in years. I don't know how much my folks paid for it but seeing each other try it out had us laughing in tears. This video was funny, but nothing beats watching this chair work its magic on unsuspecting people you know in real life.
