The Itch Chair Is The Ultimate Back Scratcher

You know what we need? Dedicated chairs for back scratching—or maybe even back scratching functionality built into a massage chair. Designer Dana Gordon is pioneering this new product line with an “Itch Chair” that features a scratching actuator controlled by running your fingertips across a touchpad on the seat base. It even has interchangeable “fingernails” that can be used to achieve the appropriate intensity.

The concept is a little rough at the moment, but it has a lot of potential. I mean, just thinking about this thing is making my back itch. Beats scratching with a cactus that’s for sure.
