Product Reviews of Homedics SBM-300H Therapist Select Shiatsu PLUS Massaging Cushion with Heat
Product Review: Awesome!
Summary: 4 Stars
Best massage cushion yet!! Its as close as a real massage that I have found in electronics so far. The only bad thing is...1) it doesn't go up high enough for me I am 5'9" (so I have to slouch to get my upper shoulders area)...and 2) its very uncomfortable to sit on if you are not using it.Product Review: BEWARE: Newest version is not as good
Summary: 2 Stars
I have been a huge fan of this very SBM-300H massaging cushion since 3 years ago. However, I was very disappointed in the lastest changes they made. One of the reason this massage chair was much better than the competitors was it's ability to really knead deep into the back muscles. The newest versions changed the roller balls. Instead of being spherical balls, they are more like tiny hockey pucks with the flat puck against your back. The effectiveness of massage chair dropped significantly. Instead of feeeling like a professional massager kneading my back muscles, it was feeling more like a little kid superficially pressing my back. Extremely unsatisfying. I'm not sure why they made this devastating change... but I'm not longer a fan of this massage chair. It has lost it's competitive edge.
Beware, if you read really good reviews pay attention to its date. The raving reviews maybe due to the older design. If it was the original roller balls, I would rate this very close to 5 stars. Because of this fatal design change, I have to give it 2 stars at best.
Product Review: Best massager for the money, hands down
Summary: 5 Stars
I found a deal on a slickdealz website and it sent me to amazon, paid $60 about 1 year ago. Wow now the price is $160 HO-LEE-CRIZZAP! I guess I got quite the deal on it a year ago. Anyhoosiers, I bought this to put in my office where 5 other people work and we all use it. Its been going strong for a year now, it gets used probably on average about 4-5 days per week. Its always getting used by somebody, everybody loves it. I even talked to one coworker who bought a $4000 massage chair in Hong Kong and had it shipped to the US, and hated it. He loved the Homedic though, said he wishes he bought this instead. Im not saying this is better than those big expensive full service chairs but it will save you tons of money, and if those big chairs ever break down, I am guessing it would cost a lot to fix. Anyways, no problems at all with this massage cushion and its been used roughly by some people in the office. Its still going strong! It cost me the same as one real massage would have in the US, meanwhile i've gotten hundreds of massages from this chair :) It paid for itself after like 3 uses :)Product Review: Brings Heated Massage Relief

This doesn't provide some wimpy little massage. It's a good thing that it automatically cuts off after 15 minutes because when I combine the heat option with the Shiatsu massage, I could sit there forever.Product Review: Defective

I bought this item for my daughter for Christmas. She really likes it, but there must be a short in the remote control part of the chair because it doesn't work correctly. I will be sending it back and have ordered another one to replace this one so that she can still have one.
