Heres an item thats both practical and pretty.

Fire on the fourth floor, and no escape is possible via the stairs then the fire brigade rescue platform arrives on site at the emergency. Just like the full-scale prototype, the boom rotates, the basket pivots, and the elevating rescue platform can be folded out. The sika fire brigade elevating rescue platform dashes to the emergency on a 3-axle chassis with a metal cab.

Sometimes the best purchases are the ones that simplify.
