Chaheati Chair Keeps You Warm and Comfortable

Sometimes being in the hot seat can be a good thing, especially if that seat is out in the cold. The Chaheati All-Season Heated Chair is ideal for use in a variety of settings, including camping, tailgating, hunting, ice fishing, and cool-weather sporting events and practices.

Similar to the lightweight, collapsible canvas chairs used by millions, this chair has the added bonus of cordless, carbon fiber, non-wire heating elements. The Chaheati offers four temperature settings ranging from 98 to 145 degrees Fahrenheit, and it heats up in less than 20 seconds.

The Chaheati's safe, low-voltage heating technology sports digital circuit protection. The lithium-ion rechargeable battery provides up to six hours of heat per charge and lasts for over 500 uses. The warmth of the chair's soft, flexible ultra-thin heating element can even help relieve aching muscles and joints. The heating system is optimally positioned to produce an even heat across the entire back, buttocks and back of the thighs.

Designed to be fire- and water-resistant, Chaheati's All-Season Heated Chair is rugged yet comfortable. The sturdy seat is oversized (23.6 inches wide, 23.6 inches deep and 36.2 inches high) and can accommodate any body type up to 280 pounds.

The spark of life for the Chaheati was a bit of a "half-baked" idea. "On a cold night in front of a bonfire, we were all warm and toasty on the front of our bodies and a block of ice on our backsides," says Kyle Smith, who invented the Chaheati along with his wife, ReAnne.

"While watching my frustrated wife repeatedly sit, stand and turn like a turkey on a rotisserie to warm up, I thought she needed a heated chair," Smith says. "After researching the market and not finding one, we decided to create one, and Chaheati is the result."

Retail price is $90.

An AC car adapter charger is sold separately and retails for $15. Replacement batteries retail for $35. For more information, call 920-543-HEAT (920-543-4328) or visit www.chaheati.com.

HANGER HAMPER

It's a challenge that occurs in closets and landfills nationwide — excess wire hangers cluttering the space.

The Hanger Hamper is a new product that helps to organize closets and recycle hangers with ease. The triangle-shaped, collapsible storage container can stack and store up to 100 hangers.

Instead of awkwardly shoving unused hangers into a laundry bag, the Hanger Hamper allows for neat and easy storage. The convenient strap handles make it easy to carry and return hangers to the dry cleaner.

Not only does the Hanger Hamper clear up rod space for clothes in your closet, but it also keeps hangers out of landfills by promoting reduce, reuse and recycle initiatives. Approximately 3.5 billion wire hangers are discarded in landfills each year.

The Hanger Hamper also makes sense economically. By bringing hangers back to the dry cleaner, consumers help reduce costs for the businesses, which in turn helps keep down the cost of dry cleaning.

It even aids in keeping money in the United States. Most wire hangers are produced overseas; in fact, more than 2.7 billion hangers were imported last year alone. The more hangers that are reused and recycled by consumers, the fewer waste and unnecessary imports there will be.

Available in khaki, green, plaid and leopard print, the Hanger Hamper retails for $10. For orders of two or more, the retail price drops to $9 each. For more information, call 888-880-9205 or visit www.hangerhamper-retail.com.
