Product Reviews of Homedics SBM-300H Therapist Select Shiatsu PLUS Massaging Cushion with Heat
Product Review: Great home massage chair!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my daughter who has complications from lupus, and she LOVES it. I am ready to buy one for myself! THanks Homedics!Product Review: Great product
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great product, the shiatsu function is quite powerful and the ability to pause for spot massaging is a very nice feature. I wish the heat would get just a tad bit warmer but it still does the job. 10 minutes a day in the chair after work is a great way to unwind.Product Review: Great product!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my husband who has lower back and shoulder injuries. He has been in physical therapy on and off for years because of this. We have had massaging cushions in the past, but this one is wonderful!
The ability to stop at specific spots, heat control, and the two types of motion is wonderful at targeting areas and releasing tension.
Great product and the best one we have had thus far. Worth every penny.
Product Review: Great product, perfected, better than SBM 500-H
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased the SBM-500H because I thought at last there was a "massage technology" with heat that I could afford. I liked the idea that it had two massage centres- the back and the shoulders, and was the latest model of massage cushion from Charlescraft. I took this model home for 2 weeks to try it out, but found the position of the back on the cushion to be a little pushed forward. I felt this caused a little distance between the lower back and the cushion.
I returned the cushion after two weeks for the following reason:
-disliked the back position
-felt the massage to be a little rough
-shoulder massage does not move automatically up and down on the shoulders, but remains instead in one position- position can be changed by user.
In exchange I purchased Charlescraft's earlier model, the SBM-300H for half the price.
I truly think this model has been perfected for the following reasons:
-the massage, although not soft, is not overly rough and seems "perfect"
-does not try to do everything, some of them badly
-enough choices including spot control
Conclusion:
I believe that SBM-500H was rushed to market, whereas SBM-300H, in my opinion, is the cushion that Charlescraft perfected. I think what Charlescraft should make next is the exact same mechanism and software as SBM-300H that goes higher- perhaps up to the shoulders, plus a neck massage extension that moves as high as the top of the back of the head. The neck massage balls should also be automatically programmed and offer spot treatment. The cushion design should allow placement on a chair, just as easily as it can be lain on the floor.
If these features were all included and perfected, I would upgrade my SBM-300H to it.
