DeWalt has been making the tool show rounds, giving sneak peeks at their forthcoming LiftPod. This is a more compact—and notably, human-powered—alternative to scissor lifts. It can be rolled into position by one person, in a stowed configuration: You then unfold it into the use configuration: It's got one-way safety gates, so you can't fall out backwards: There's a little tool tray at the front… …and a hydraulic handcrank that lets you raise it 7 feet. (Some sources say there will also be a 10-foot version.) Here's what it looks like in action. The audio is weird because it's AI-translated from Spanish. DeWalt has yet to name a release date and pricing.
