Here it is, the definitive couch potato gotta have it, surefire, next big hit! What is it? Glad you asked! From Maytag comes a HOME VENDING MACHINE. Yup, you read right. Hurry off to Home Depot and buy a SkyBox (approx. $600) for your TV room. Why have to shlep all the way to the kitchen for a cold one and a snack? Put the
SkyBox in your TV room and you will never have to leave the room for a snack again.

The SkyBox will hold 64 twelve ounce cans or 32 twelve ounce bottles or a combination of both. There are four different dispenser buttons, so you can load it up with a whole host of different beverages.

With an eye on the lazy guy market, the SkyBox is customizable with sports logos from the NFL, NHL, MLB, and NASCAR. It also comes with child locks, a “low stock” indicator, and a lower shelf area for storing dry snacks.

The good folks at Home Depot feel that this product is the “ultimate new addition to your family’s home entertainment zone.”

What more can we say? It’s true- we may never leave home again!
