Invents Introduces "The Guppy", Alleviate Pressure On Knees For Kneeling Tasks
New York, NY, November 3, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Gardening and many home improvement tasks involve spending time on one's knees. One way to make doing these chores much easier is with the Guppy. The Guppy is an ergonomic, padded platform on which to kneel when completing a variety of activities. It provides cushiony ergonomic comfort for the knees, shins, and feet and helps the user to get up and down.
The Guppy has ample, cushiony soft, yet supportive padded area for the knees and shins comprised of dense memory foam or gel material. Behind is a recessed well to accommodate full flexibility of the feet. The base features a hard plastic curved shell, enabling the user to easily rotate the device, as well as to gently rock the unit in any dirction when leaning in to complete a specific task. A retaining wedge-like lip prevents the Guppy from rocking so far forward as to compromise the comfort or safety of the user. The underside has a semi-slick surface, facilitating mobility and comfortable movement of the device while preventing insects and other pests from climbing onto the Guppy.
"Bending and kneeling is a common occurrence for individuals working in a garden, cleaning or rehabbing certain tasks inside the home. The Guppy serves the user with comfort for the knees, shins and the feet. It works perfectly."
Denise Bowen, Inventor
The Patent Pending Guppy was invented by Denise Bowen of Palm Desert, CA, who said, “The long-lasting pads are replaceable and have a protective, water-resistant covering which can be removed for cleaning. On each side of the kneeler portion is a series of integrated, recessed bins inside of which tools and supplies can be neatly stored and easily accessed. The ergonomic design of the Guppy allows it to be easily carried on the shoulder and hung on a wall for out-of-the-way storage.”
