I'm very pleased with it

2008-05-14
I bought mine a few months ago to help with sore, tired feet. I generally spend at least half my day at work on my feet. I have found that if I push down too hard on the massager it will slow down, but for the most part I have been quite happy with how my feet feel after using it. It's clearly no replacement for an actual foot massage, but does well to soothe my feet after 10-15 minutes of use. The motor seems to do well if you do one foot at a time, or just let the weight of your foot keep downward pressure without too much additional force.

Not as good as the real thing but a close substitute

This product really depends on how sore and sensitive your muscles are. When I first got it I wasn't impressed. Then I tried it last night after being on my feet most of the day and I could barely contain myself as the balls massaged my feet. So its very dependant on how bad your feet need to be worked out. On days when they are fine it will just feel like balls rolling around. On days that you have stressed them it will feel like feathers! The only downside is that you need to be careful with the balls hitting the bones on your feet. I don't have meaty feet and sometimes the balls grind on the bone and that is not pleasant. Overall its one of the best dry foot massagers I've seen on the market and well worth $40.

When MY feet and legs are swollen this feels soooooooo good. My older sister got one because she tried mine and thought it was better than aex! (Can I say that?)

I have fibromyalgia and it's wonderful! All of my sisters have one!

love it

Cheap Chinese Junk

2008-06-28
The motor burned out on this unit after one day of use. I'm a 195 lb. man, and the weight of my feet was just too much for the unit to handle. I tried using the massager on just one foot at a time, as other users had recommended, but even this proved too great a burden for the machine to bear. The ball bearings on the massage plates are made of plastic, rather than steel. The drive mechanism is grossly underpowered, and simply not robust enough for its intended use.

This unit is a prime example of the low-quality plastic junk that is mass produced in overseas factories with low labor costs, then exported to the West. We deserve better. Vote with your dollars and say no to this product.

Stopped working after 5 15 minute uses!!

I bought this equipment along with a home medics back massager .. I have used it only 5 times since it arrived last month .. approximately 15 minutes each time .. Yesterday I went to use it again .. the lights came on, the heat came on, but nothing spins .. it doesn't work! ..

Now I have to figure out how to return it .. the back massager works great .. no problem ..

Nice product it works ... I bought it for my dad

My dad has problem after coming from work at night .. he needs to massage his feet . The product works fine.

Solves the purpose

The massager is much better than the foot spas available in market. It gives relief to feet and the heat coming from it is effective.
Cons: Recommended to wear socks while using this. And i wish it was big enough to fit the whole feet instead of only part of it.

Worked well, but broke early on

I bought this for my mom and it worked well originally. The massgae action is nice and soothing, and the heat element is great for those whose feet get cold, like the elderly.

The problem was that the right side heating went out after about 3 weeks of light use. Still works for the massage part but no heat on one side.
