kopykatkim writes: I'm not sure but I think maybe my Dentist had a chair like that back in the old days. No not really but he had the mentality of that chair. He actually slapped me across the face because I was crying. Now do you think I like going to the Dentist? NOT!!!!!! But it is still a great find, kind of creepy, I hope you turn it into a great place of relaxtion.

georgiamoon writes: OMG...can you imagine the tortuous things that went on in THAT chair. All it needs is straps!!! You need to do something RIGHT AWAY to make it look like you could stand to sit in it. Although I would have snapped it up in a second...it is rather frightening. Maybe a comfy cushion and some Novocaine would help? Posted: 2:25 pm on December 13th

Take care,

Junk_Sophisticate writes: Sheesh! No wonder why people are scared to go to the dentist. They must have an inherited trait of fear due to these chairs!

Great find.
