Very relaxing [Posted on 2008-02-26] I gave this one as a gift to my friend. He was so thrilled and he says he uses it almost everyday. His friends come over and use his massager once in a while and they say they are going to get one..
not good after 1 month [Posted on 2008-02-29] This was great for our office, everyone loved it until it started making farting noises so we haven't used it for about 8 months. I need to return it.
Great [Posted on 2008-04-24] Unlike other reviewers, this doesn't hurt my back at all, in fact, its helping it right now. I'll admit, if you use it too much, or if you press against it too hard, it does get uncomfortable, but nowhere near enough to hurt..
Works well then stopped... [Posted on 2008-05-26] Homedics Shiatsu Massager This product is very good when it works. However, in a short space of time, and with very infrequent use, it stopped working and there is no way of getting it fixed. So disappointed because it really helped with my muscle spasms. Needs to be a sturdier product. 4 star for effectiveness, no star for durability.
not for little/skinny people! [Posted on 2008-08-07] I bought one of these about two years ago because I have chronic back pain, and usually have many knots in my back. I tried using this, and it hurt like crazy. Two reasons: one is I don't think it makes sense to sit upright for a back massage, and two is because the rollers/balls are very hard.
I am a small person--105 pounds--and kind of bony. I tried using it with towels on my back, with my winter coat on, etc, and that helped a little, but not enough for me to keep using it. I would wince and couldn't lean all the way against the cushion. Not being able to relax against the cushion made it plain to me that this would not help me.
That said, I ended up giving it to my boyfriend (who is a normal sized person), and he thought it was fine. I ended up trying another Homedics product (not listed on Amazon), which has quad rollers that can either roll or shiatsu, and that one worked better, but, again, it's sort of weird to sit up for a back massage.
