"Shiatsu" literally means "pressure with fingers" in Japanese. Still, stout fingers aren't the only means to a good massage, as this unit can attest. The Shiatsu massager quite literally moves up and down your back with its state-of-the-art massage mechanism, deeply kneading the tightest knots along your spine while relaxing and invigorating sore muscles. The unit features three programs--for full, lower, and upper back--along with three speeds. It attaches easily to most chairs, and its cushioned layer delivers a gentle yet firm rub. Plus, there are no confusing, hard-to-reach controls; simply use the included programmable hand control to customize your massage on the spot. Enjoy the skill of a professional shiatsu massage therapist any time of the day. --Rivers Janssen

 Just try it once and you'll be hooked! January 3, 2004

I just had to go and find this remarkable little gadget after trying it at my brother's house. He bought it after trying it at his in-laws. It is THAT good, try it once, and you will be hooked. Two little balls go up and down your spine like little fingers. It is a very intense experience. I was sore for a day afterwards until I took a nice hot shower. Then, I had to buy my own unit. It is like visiting your own personal massage therapist whenever you want. Basically, the shiatsu balls work the lower thru upper back and the cushions vibrate in different ways to invigorate your thighs. But make no mistake, this little baby is about getting those stubborn knots out of your back. A little bit of heaven on my couch. Ahhh.........
3/11/04- An update here, do NOT use this product on a recliner. I was reclined and leaned to the side..SNAP...it broke. 3 weeks later my brother plopped down on his reclined chair and broke his too. I sent it off for repairs and am dying to get it back. WARNING- If you do buy this, use a straight back chair, like a kitchen chair. My brothers inlaws use a straightback chair and have had no problems. Don't use it in a recliner!

I like a massage that hurts a little, and this one is perfect. This is the third back massager that we've owned and by far it is my favorite. Other massagers that we have used simply vibrate. This one has 2 little balls on each side that move in a circular motion up and down the back. It feels like someone rubbing my back with a thumb and the knuckle of a finger. The first time I tried it, I could not believe it.
The exterior is a smooth vinyl exterior. Other massagers that I have used have had a fuzzy exterior than attracted dust, lint, and hair. This one is easy to keep clean. The balls always stop in the low position, so the massager is comfortable to sit on when it is not "on". I found it to be quiet compared to other massagers that I've used.
I double-checked the model number of this massager and it matches the number shown here. As another reviewer noted, it does not have three speeds. Additionally, the control is not what I call programmable. There are four selections: demo, full back, lower back and upper back. That's it. Truthfully, there is not much difference between the lower back and upper back settings. The seat is cushioned, and does not vibrate.
I don't recommend the Shiatsu Back Massager for people who want a gentle massage. This massager gives a deeper massage. I love it and can't get enough!

I bought this massager because I don't want to spend over a thousand dollars on a shiatsu massage chair, and was pleasantly surprised. The shiatsu-style massager really works! It might be a little too hard for those with bonier backs, but that can be alleviated with a towel placed over the massager. It massages from the lower to upper back, and the massaging balls travel up and down, unlike some other massagers. I have another massaging mat from the sharper image that is supposed to knead and vibrate, but that seems like a piece of junk compared to this one! (And it costs just about the same, too). So I think for the price, it's a great bargain.
AWESOME! February 14, 2004
knot knotted up anymore! (florida)

I'm one of these pathetic, whiney "pleeeaaaassseee just rub my back for one little second" people. My back muscles are always sore,tense and in knots. It gets so bad that after a 2-6hr car ride I can hardly move my neck left or right. Anyway, this thing has taken me from pitiful to ecstatic. Every night I come home from work and let it massage my back. Also, if I scoot down far enough I can get it to massage my neck and the base of my skull. Every one who tries it at my house has to go buy one. It does have a strong plastic smell, enough to smell my whole living room up but after 1 month, it's going away and it's been worth it! It's holding up really well though I lean against it pretty hard as it says not to do, the balls can only take so much pressure and your not supposed to lay on it on the floor. My recommendation is to get this massager if you like a good, DEEP, upright back massage all the time.
Tried it for 2 minutes and i loved it!!! November 26, 2003

i bought this for my mom for here birthday gift anf for kicks, of course, i wanted to see how it actually felt..... the thing was great. of course it doesnt feel as great as one of those really expensive chairs, but if youre looking for a cheaper massager for the almost same feeling, buy this. its well worth the money. the massager is generally concentrated on the back (which feels great). it vibrates the thighs and pretty much does nothing for the neck
