Get it!
It is amazing. As a woman, living alone, and dying of a massage immediately after a workout it hits every part that I need in bed. I can use it for my neck. I use it on my back on the floor. I also use it in my office chair while working from home. The heated function is a great feature. I love the heat levels. Seems very durable. Super easy to use just plug up and you’re good to go. And seems pretty portable. I could bring it into the office.

Compact but powerful
I ordered this not knowing the size but it is very easily portable and I have used it on my kitchen chairs, computer chair, on top of my bed pillow and even in my car. This thing is compact but does the job of a large massager. I love the adjustable settings to allow the perfect tension.

Intense massage for back and neck with many features
This massager surprised me with the size and weight. It's fairly heavy and bulky, unlike the thin chair cover massagers I have had in the past. I would not likely travel with this massager because of the weight. Overall I am very pleased. The massager balls get into the areas of my back that need it most. The neck massager also works very well. Both have a high kneading intensity with a feeling of moderate pressure and work independently of each other. The intensity is variable, with high, medium, and low settings for both neck and back. Also, you can use an optional padding on the back to lessen the pressure more. The back settings have options to simply roll, and forego the shiatsu kneading. And there are options for full back, upper, lower, or spot. I am only 5'2" tall so I do have a hard time getting the neck and back massagers to line up correctly. The solve this issue I do not try and massage neck and back at the same time. I do back first, then. place a pillow under my seat to raise my height, and then do my neck. Lowering or raising oneself really adjusts the point of contact the massage balls and there isn't an area I can't get to if I'm positioned correctly, including the top of my traps. The spot feature is great to stay on a particularly tense area, and that can be further honed in with adjustable arrows that let you move the balls up or down. The massager also has heat settings for neck and back and a timer feature. You can go beyond 15 minutes on the phone app. I find the massager app very nice because it is more convenient to use my bright phone screen, rather than the corded remote, which is black and hard to see all the buttons, especially if you are like me and need reading glasses. Mine did not come with a car charger attachment, although I could buy one from the website. I thought I might do that, but honestly, this thing is pretty heavy and I can't see myself moving it back and forth much. I might buy another massager just for my car. This massager has given me a lot of relief. I'm coming up on being middle aged, and working a job with high level of repetitive stress injuries to the body, especially the neck, shoulders and upper back. I'm not saying it can replace a trained massage therapist, but it definitely gives me tremendous relief to use this after work. I think the price point is pretty good with the quality of materials, options and settings, and overall effectiveness. Longevity is something I cannot speak of yet, but will update. I was given an option to update my warranty, if that means anything. I know with Chinese companies many people fear giving our their private information but it didn't ask for my phone number, address, etc.

Great for Full Body Massage
I love this thing. I lay on it to get more pressure. I'm a runner, and I've manipulated it for use on my hips and calves also. I've had it for well over a year and use it regularly.

Good pain, relief, power, and heat.
We’ve had it for 3 years. This has helped prevent tension headaches and reduce soreness and relax after long days. I’m happy with this purchase and would recommend.

Not going to work for me: thorough review from an average-sized, unincentivized person
I have been using this massage product for about 2 weeks now and purchased it on my own accord and was not incentivized in any way. There are a lot of positives to this product and perhaps it will work for you but I believe I will be returning this product and will replace it with a different model or with a product from a different manufacturer.Pros:• It's well made• Controls are straightforward and easy to useCons (in my experience using):• The proportions just don't work for me. I have tried adjusting and repositioning this massage chair device numerous times and have tried attaching it to a number of different chairs and sofas and have also tried just lying on it flat but the proportions just don't work for me. I am a 5' ft 11" male and weigh around 150 lbs. which I would consider to be a fairly standard height / weight (well, perhaps I'm a bit slim/trim for your standard American but that's a different issue lol). I cannot get the main moving kneading back shiatsu massagers to reach the highest area of my upper back where I most desperately need massage, in between my shoulder blades without the lower back massage range then being too high. It is nice that the neck massage area is vertically adjustable but the range of motion for the main back massage area is not long enough for me and the only way I can get the massager to reach my upper back where I need it to be is by raising the entire unit up but if I raise it up as high as I need it to be then I cannot sit on the cushion as it is no longer lying flat on the top of the chair and is then an angle and I don't want to sit on it and effectively bend it when it has electronic components inside. And I have issues attaching it to a chair which will be in the next bullet.• The straps to attach it to a chair need to be repositioned or there needs to be an additional third, lower strap. I need to be able to attach the very bottom of the unit to the back of a chair but the lower of the two straps is not low enough and thus no matter what chair I use the bottom of the back panel board keeps sliding forward and it's just been nearly impossible to use this on any chair or sofa I have tried without there being issues. The only decent experience I get is when I lie it flat on a couch or on the floor and lie myself flat on top of it which is okay but I would really like to be able to use this while sitting upright in a chair.• The lower seat vibration massage area isn't strong enough. It's probably a strong as massaging components are capable of being but it just isn't enough for me. And it would be more noticeable perhaps if they are were pre-programmed massage patterns available and built in (such as pulsating, throbbing, etc.) instead of just solid on or off.My final two cons are for missing features I wish this product had and are not the fault of the manufacturer. It's likely these features I desire do not exist at all from any manufacturer and/or don't exist in a product of this price range.• I really wish that there was both kneading shiatsu/rolling massage AND full body vibration massage available in the same unit. Perhaps that's not possible from a construction standpoint considering the rolling/kneading massage components are constantly moving and having vibration massage units along the same areas as the moving kneading massage parts might not work well together or even feasibly be possible. I don't see why the kneading massage heads themselves though couldn't have vibration motors built with inside of them, almost something like the classic Panasonic "Magic Wand" vibrator except the massage head is on a track and is moving/kneading/rolling. Perhaps I will just have to buy a second unit that is massage only and then use one after the other but while the kneading shiatsu massage that this product does provide does feel very nice (despite not quite hitting the right areas of my upper and lower back that I need it to) I still just feel like I didn't get the whole experience that I really require when I'm done using this product because I really need some sort of pulsating massaging sensation applied in these areas as well.•Lack of "chopping" setting. Again this is not the fault of the manufacturer and this may not exist on any similar product in this price range but my whole basis for comparison in using this machine is from remembering wonderful experiences I have had in full stand-alone massage chairs which I'm sure they purchased for thousands of dollars more but I just think they remember there being a rapid tapping or "chopping" type massage available as well (sorry, I'm not a massage therapist and have no clue what the actual term for this type of massage is lol). The rolling and needing experience is very nice but I need some sort of strong vibration or tapping or chopping feature in the same areas and just do not feel thoroughly refreshed and relax after using this product without experiencing this type of sensation.Overall it's a nice product and I can understand if it is not possible at all or even just not possible at this price range to have additional vibration and chopping massage style techniques built into this product but even with that aside I wish they would add a third/additional chair attachment strap to this model and I wish the proportions / range of the lower moving back area were slightly adjusted. I believe I am going to purchase a similar product from a different manufacturer to see how well it compares.

A Great Little Massager
Why did you pick this product vs others?:I really like this massager. I use it on the ground and lay my back on top of it. It's a really great neck massage, but my neck is a bit small, so I have to do one side at a time. I like the rollers and the way it feels and I think it's great quality. I would buy it again and I will probably give as a gift to my in-laws at some point. It's really easy to use, it's not very loud, and I feel nice and loose after the massage.
