Bill, my last patent cost me $15K, but it did involve some hi-tech stuff. For a consumer type item like yours, I wouldn't worry about a patent, just produce the product and be happy.)
IMHO, a patent is only useful to document the transfer of intellectual property in a sale. As far as protection, they are worthless unless you have the money to defend the patent in court.
DO NOT use one of those ''patent services'', they are a total rip off, and completely useless.
