    • A great value
Color: Light Gray
DON'T spend $2000 for a massage chair!! This little beauty does most of what the big ugly does, for about &1900 less!! This guy digs deep, gives you the heat, plus seat vibration. I like the zone options, upper/lower/spot/whole back, targeting the sore/pain areas. Shiatsu plus vibration produces a relaxing sensation as well. A win win win. A quality product as well. ... show more

    • Great Product, Great Customer Support
Color: Light Gray
I bought this massager almost a year ago and I love it. It gets the job done and feels great; I have a lot of back issues and pain, and this helps to keep that pain from getting worse and worse like it usually does when I use it often. The first one did break; one of the massage balls tore through the fabric, but that’s probably because of user error. However, I contacted customer support on their website and they sent a replacement out to me right away. It was seamless and I’m thankful for their timing as I didn’t want to go too long without massaging my back. I think I got the replacement within 3 business days. The first one lasted me almost a year, and if it hadn’t of been for the ball tearing through the fabric part (there is a padded covering that ensured my safety so I wasn’t harmed!) I’m sure it would have lasted for a good while longer too; it’s really good quality for this price point. The noise level is amazing; practically no noise unless you’re using the vibration setting, and even then it’s minimal. Highly recommend to anyone who needs a decent massager and doesn’t want to break the bank. You can control where there massage balls go (higher or lower), and you can keep them in a certain spot as well. There is also a really nice heat option that just adds a bit more relaxation; using that during the cold months was great and kept me toasty! ... show more

    • Affordable and Effective Massage Chair Alternative
Color: Light Gray
Very interesting item. More affordable than a full-on massage chair and easily portable for changing locations such as when the kids have taken over the couch. Massage intensity cannot be changed but wifey and I like it as it is - deep tissue and firm. But most importantly, can definitely feel pain relief within just a session or two. Assuredly stretching and exercise would be the best but with the little ones running around, this is incredibly relaxing and efficient on time and energy spent. Great for the price but can’t help wonder about the other ones out there… ... show more

    • Best massager I've tried - hands down!
Color: Light Gray
I've dealt with tight back and neck muscles for years and I have all sorts of gadgets, tools and massagers to help combat it. However, this is the best massager I've used hands down! Massage guns can be awkward and tiring to hold and you can't easily get to your back yourself. I also have a back and neck massager that is a strap and you hold with your hands/arms. That's better but then you have to contort your arms to get it in the various spots along your back. However, the Snailax Shiatsu Massage Cushion does the work for you! You just set it up on a chair, sit on it and turn it on. It really does all the work for you. It will go up and down your back for you - kneading you back the entire time. There are different functions you can select like just on your upper or lower back. It even has a spot feature to have the massager focus on a specific area. While doing that, you can have your tush and back legs massaged with the vibrational cushion. All of this plus heat. I've only had this a couple of weeks but I have already noticed huge improvements in my neck and shoulders. If you have a chronically tight neck or back and find it hard to get to all the spots, I strongly recommend this massager. I love it so much, I got one for my dad for Christmas. ... show more

    • Best massager out there hands down!!
Color: Black
If you are looking for the best massager look no further!!! This thing is fantastic!!! I’m in pain all the time and this relaxed my whole body. I know it’s just for back but I turned it around and used it on my legs and feet as well… works so good!!!! 10/10 would recommend to everyone!!

    • you'll either love it or hate it.
Color: Light Gray
This is a 2 week review. Using this chair/pad thing is not easy. Sure, you can sit on it in a chair, but the pressure will vary depending on how you sit, or the angle of the chair. To get a consistent pressure I have to lean forward and back as it moves up and down my spine. This does not help relax me, as i am constantly moving. What I discovered is that for me the Steeper the angle i use it on, the better it works. I managed to set it up so I am leaning forward and it presses onto my back from the weight of a heavy blanket and a pillow compressed between it and the chair. This position lets me relax the most, and i dont have to move as much to get good pressure. Things I dont like: The vibration on the seat is almost useless. The only time i enjoy it is when I use the seat alone as a pillow and vibrate just my head and neck. The heat function is also not useful for me. The pressure flap that it comes with makes the heat unnoticeable. Without the pad the pressure is painful. Things I like: The massage can feel amazing if you get it situated right! If you lay the pad flat and lay on it scooted down lower you can get a great massage of the upper shoulder, neck, and head. (cover it with a towel to transfer pressure to the back of the neck arch) Things i noticed: If i only use it 15-30 min a day then my muscles wont get "massage sore" and i can take the hard pressure better. When i used it for an hour the first 2 days i had it, the third and fourth days were very painful and hard to get comfortable. The chair works best when targeting the upper and lower back separately. When i use the FULL option I have to lean and move 5-10x more often. if you get sweaty when using it, the pressure flap wipes clean very easily. I find that longer duration with lower pressure (an extra towel as padding) works the best for me. I get crazy dehydrated after using this massage chair, so drink lots of water before and after! If i want a butt/low low back massage I just sit on a towel and it does decent. So far i haven't found a great position for massaging the sciatica. TLDR: The product is good but takes getting used to, the vibration only chair might be better for me. ... show more

This is literally a life saver. It's so good. If it is too hard you can put a pillow. But I took off the pad because I love deep tissue massage. Its worth every single penny!

    • Feels very durable and does a great job. Exceeds my expectations!
Color: Light Gray
I looked at a number of different massaging mats/cushions. Upon receiving it, at first blush I was very pleased with the quality of construction. I didn't know what to expect for sure, but this is a well-put-together piece of equipment. To be clear, while I think this would work amazingly well in a car (and it does come with a car adapter), that is not why I purchased it. I bought this to use on my couch at home, as I suffer from back and leg pain and a good massaging mat is something I've been wanting for a while. This isn't a flimsy mat. It has a pronounced, sturdy, lumbar support for the lower back. The mat is memory foam, and it supports very well. The massage it delivers is very good. It has five different modes (pulsate, tapping, rolling, auto, and kneading). I prefer the rolling feature where it works its way from the top of the cushion, and then it activates progressively downward to the thighs. Then it starts the cycle over again at the top. It is incredibly relaxing. the product also comes with instructions for activating the 2 year warranty. I sent an email and had a response inn less than an hour, which was a pleasant surprise. The only information they required was my order ID# from Amazon. Another reason I like the product is because over time some couches (mine at least) tend to sink in a little bit as time goes on and you repeatedly sit on it. This mat compensates for that and I just feel more supported and comfortable on my couch now. I considered another model of the same brand that includes shiatsu massage. the reason I chose not to go with that particular model is because I intend to leave this cushion on my couch at all times when I'm sitting on it. I think the shiatsu cushion would feel amazing, but the balls embedded in the cushion would be obtrusive and uncomfortable when I just want to sit without using the massage feature. For that reason, I like this model that uses vibrating massage and feels comfortable at all times when I'm sitting - whether I've got it turned on or not. That's a decision each person will need to make for themselves when considering the type of cushion to purchase. It all depends on your intended use. That said, I've been extremely impressed so far with the quality of the product and their responsive customer service when activating my warranty. Not only are they timely, but they are friendly as well. It doesn't feel like a detached, auto-generated email that we all have received at one time or another. This is a great value and I can easily recommend it with 5 stars. I would not change my decision to purchase it one bit. I expect others who make this purchase will be glad they did as well. It exceeds my expectations. ... show more
