The Mogo Stand
The Mogo stand is as it advertises a human kickstand with a
seat. It’s designed for leaning and elevating the leaner from supporting the
full brunt of their own body mass. It can to support up to 200 lbs, anodized
aluminum/fiberglass-reinforced nylon,
has a rotating rubber stopper at it’s base for traction allowing it to
rest on most surfaces. Fully extended it’s 38” long but collapses
down to a convenient light weight (2lbs) compact size for travel. The cost is
$80-100.
Totally Adoptable!!! Just for the how-to-knowledge and convenience
alone makes this a possible trendy product.
Relative Advantage: It’s adding in allowing a body to rest
by transferring most of your body weight but not fully. I does not require you to go all the way to
the ground which could be dirty or if too fatigued hard to get back up. It’s easy to operate efficient, it takes away
the clumsy use of collapsible bulky lawn chairs. The cost could be an issue for
some but with the cost of materials and easiness maybe not so much.
Compatibility: It
fits with the lack luster on the go lifestyle. With today’s aging baby boomers
that still attend stand up concerts it defiantly has a niche, people with
physical disabilities that require them not to stand for long periods of time, pregnant
women, and campers/hikers, this could be the next go to REI product. A disadvantage is it’s weight capacity but at
the same time it gives an air of “I’m still kinda trying not to just sit on my
ass” so it’s not for the obese.
Adaptability: I could be used as a self defense weapon, a
walking stick, if made more stylish for urban settings like waiting for the
Bart when all the seats are taken, a stand support for something leaning in
your house (stacks of news papers).
Observably: I can fore see it being a fairly slow process of
adoption because even with wide spread marketing it seems like a product that
sells more by of word of mouth.
