With the Consumer Electronics Show wrapping up, we’re pretty burned out on gadget news. However, we’ve managed to find a gadget not at CES (yet) that will likely appeal to 95% of HomeFixated readers. Never underestimate how much work someone is willing to do to exercise laziness! Especially when that laziness involves beer.
