If this dude had just come in from the start, saying “It’s not meant to solve any problems as far as exfoliating your feet goes, it’s just a way to make the task easier, a little more fun, and you get a good foot massage while you’re at it”, and didn’t try the whole “That looks dangerous to me - you standing there like that” route, the at might have honestly piqued their interest, and had them taking it a BIT more seriously in the long run. Not every invention has to “solve a problem”. Many inventions exist for the sole purpose of making an already simple and mundane task a little more fun, so that you end up doing it more and thinking about it more often when showering. But unfortunately with this invention, Peter was right, it just didn’t look like it would do what it was being sold as being able to do. If he made some parts a little harder and spikier, he’d have had a winner. But as they also said, I’m sure that someone has seen this and probably already come out with a product 100x better than this.

Great idea but for some reason the inventor and the dragons didn't know what to do with the product. This is a fantastic product for the elderly. I looked after my grandad for 5+ years and he had to stop having showers and start being given sponge baths because he couldn't bend down to wash his feet so he'd do his head and stuff himself then someone else would do his feet. If he had one of these he could actually shower himself without having to bend over, we ended up buying something similar and it worked great. No idea why he pitched it towards perfectly healthy flexible adults who have no issues cleaning haha

I am 77 years old and cannot clean my feet because of an accident that affected my back. There are many, many possible customers who would benefit from this as due to physical problems or age cannot clean their extremities and the feet are an important area of the body,the reason for global foot reflexology clinics..I think the Dragons blinkered.Many simple products they refused to take seriously went on to be very successful.

He actually had a good product. Shower floors especially after soap are extremely slippery and it's risky business even trying to start balancing on one foot. *But* I'm still glad the Dragons took him down. £22 is simply ridiculous. No; doesn't matter how good the idea, don't let Greed win

@michellep47923 жыл бұрын
It's very shortsighted of the Dragons to assume that everyone can reach their feet. There are a lot of health conditions, in addition to age and disability, that make it impossible for a person to reach their feet.
