Engine oil pump?

what do you guys think of this device?
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Automotive...ystem/14562261

i never done an oil change on my own. been to Toyota for the last 4 years. ( it was for free cant complain)
would that make life a bit easier to do an oil change or is it not worth it?
i still would have to go underneath to change the oil filter no?

If your to lazy to get under your car to do an oil change and need to use something like that then you shouldn't even be touching your car.

To me I would feel uncomfortable hooking what is basically a vacuum cleaner to my oil lines.

And yes, I am pretty sure you need to go underneath still to change the filter.
