Customer Reviews of Homedics QRM-400H Therapist Select Quad-Roller Massaging Cushion with Heat
Customer Review: A Good Massage Cushion w/ Some Flaws
Summary: 3 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I was going to do a video review of this product, but Debra Hamel did an excellent one so I won't go overkill.
Let me start off by saying that this portable massage cushion is the best I've ever tried (short of a full chair). It provides a great variety of back massages from the rolling to shiatsu; upper, lower or full back and with heat or without. The first day I got it had a bit of a smell but that disappated quickly and was not too offensive. Set-up took about 10 minutes and it was ready for action. It fit well on my work chair and gave me a great massage. I did 3 increments of 15 minute programs. Afterwards my back was relaxed and loose - you've gotta love the heat.
I took it around my office and let about 7 other people use it and they all loved it. But their few complaints were the same as mine.
1. The bottom cushion design is such that on a chair that isn't very deep, you feel like you are falling off it.
2. The back cushion reduces the depth of the chair, so a deeper chair works better. (see 1)
3. Lean up against the rollers too hard and the massage can become painful.
4 Noise. It is by no means overly load, but the roller noise is audible and can be a distraction if in a quiet environment.
5. The lights stay on until unplugged.
6. Here is the biggie ... it does not reach high enough on the back. The number one complaint was that it did not reach the should and neck area. Even people in the mid 5 foot range complained of this. They sell separate neck and shoulder massagers, but it would be great to have an all in one product.
All said though, it is a quality product that I would recommend with those caveats. Definitely the best value in the line of Homedic massage cushions, though the priciest. If they could just get it to reach the neck and shoulders, they'd have a perfect product here. Until then, my mid to lower back is happy. This is a holiday gift that WOULD get used by the recipient!
