Just think twice before you buy this product.

It really might end up being in your closet.

Mine is probably in trash truck by now.

Myself and my friends/family cant stand this thing for anymore that 20 min or so. Definately not worth the money. I got mine from my work and it’s in my closet now. Get a normal vibrating pad with heat if you have a sore back at the end of the day.

This thing stopped working after one year, and I didn’t even use it that much. It just won’t turn on anymore. I’m 5′2″ and it doesn’t massage my neck at all, it’s made for taller people. I’d recommend treating yourself to a real massage every now and then.

I am a delightful, wonderful 70 yr old senior citizen, whom everyone loves, including myself. I was diagnosed by my medic with severe spinal osteoporoses a month ago, and since that time I have resembled my idol, Frankenstein. Nevertheless, as a recoverying alcoholic I used the tools of AA to handle any catastrophe that might come my lucky way, so I need not fear. I ordered this beautiful machine and I trusted in you completely. As I read the directions, there was no procedure given for assembly. No #1, then #2 and you’re home, as usual. OK keep going. Plug unit into 120 outlet and attach to the receiver on the “side of the cushion”. Easy enough. Put your glass on, Jim to findd the receiver. Cushion, right, side, no must be on other side. Huh? Where’s this receiver. Zippo. Must be made in my homeland, Ireland? Nah. Nothing underneath the cushion, nothing on top of the cushion. Where the h…is the G.D. doodad?? Let’s check the graphic that shows it on the picture. Picture of the unit, no arrows, no pointers, just a couple words of English that never mention the receiver. At this point, I remain calm and say the Serenity Prayer. God, give me the strength to toss this G.D. piece of s… out my apartment window. It worked, I took a deep breathe and offered thanks to my Higher Power. Thanks for this AA program sweet Lord. Jim, peel off the plastic covering on the BACK of the dam thing, says my higher power. Nah, it can’t be there, Boss. They say it’s on the SIDE of the cushion. Do as I SAY, lamebrain. Okay, Okay. Lift up the plastic cover. At last, there it is under my nose all the time. How clever, it was NEVER near the cusion, just BOLTED to the back of the unit, with its tip cleverly SEALED with a hooded plastic helmet. At last, my humble Irish back gets kneaded gently with loving care. Thank you, thank you, dear caring friends of Homedics. I want to loving share my experience with my fellow Senior Citizens whom you sincerely reach out to. What would we ever do without such loving aliens as yourselves. Welcome to our world, but please be sure to extend our apprection to your relatives back on Uranus. Again, I offer my heart to you like so many in sincere gratitude. With undying confidence, and love, truly, truly yours, I remain in pain, Jim Hanley, former manic depressive, but you have helped me more than you’ll ever now. Higher Power, bless them abundantly, please, please.

DO visit me in sunny Paterson, New Jersey, the Paris of the East. Please visit our gorgeous Falls, second only to Niagra. I’ll hang you by your appendages so you can better a better view with your fly eyes. Again, thank you dear friends for all of us here. You’re welcome anytime. Keep comin’ back. It works.
