When I first saw the name of the product, “Forearm Forklist,” I had a totally different idea of what this product was going to be. In my eye, I saw a tiny little fork-life, with a tiny little crane mechanism, holding up the forearm of a guy who was too fat to lift it himself. Quite a handy concept, actually.
It turns out, though, that the Forearm Forklift is something at least as handy as that—maybe even handier. According to the commercial, Forearm Forklift is this pair of straps that makes it easy to carry heavy objects, such as refrigerators, desks, king-sized mattresses, pianos, and more. You just lay the straps out on the floor, put the heavy object on top, criss-cross the straps and then put your forearms through the openings. Voila! Now you can use the power of leverage to lift the object as high as you need it, to transport it wherever it needs to go. Great concept, and it works even better than advertised.
And it beats the alternative. How many of us have the most ridiculous stories of trying to move heavy objects? I certainly do!
·There's the time that a friend and I moved a large freezer all the way down the street, from one house to an apartment a block away. It seemed way heavier than it should have been—and then we figured out why. The person who owned it had been storing canned food inside of it—packed from bottom to top!
·There's the time that my brother and I tried to move a piano out of a small country church for the pastor, and we could not get it out of the door. It was then that the pastor told us that the room it was in had literally been built around the piano!
Fortunately, frustrating stories like this become less frustrating when you don't have to break your back carrying the item. And that makes Forearm Forklift a heck of a good buy.
