Umbrella Bagger keeps things clean and dry

Check out this Umbrella Bagger machine which hails from nowhere else but Japan – it does away with the need to ready a long plastic bag at the entrance of your establishment whenever it pours, as all your customer needs to do is slide the umbrella within and a bag will be slipped on automatically. Of course, there is also the issue of short umbrellas getting in the way, but fret not as there is an equivalent dispenser for those as well! It requires no electricity at all which is another plus point, relying on springs and levers instead to get the job done. Too bad they are pretty expensive at $1,800 a pop.
