Best Massage Chairs (August 2017) – Reviews & Buyer’s Guide

Many customer reviews do seem to depict being in favor of the 06C by BestMassage; however, a significant amount of reviews by users were also concentrated upon complaints regarding the massage chair breaking down following a year of usage, alongside extremely unsupportive customer service.

I would consider the Shiatsu Massage Chair 06C as a fantastic purchase, particularly for massage chair shoppers with a relatively lower budget. It consists of a majority of core features in every massage chair, that too at an incredible bargain.

Clients of the Shiatsu Massage Chair gave a pretty high number of excellent, 5-star reviews. The only issue which seemed to be prominent in a few of the reviews was regarding difficulty in assembling, and discomfort caused by the foot-roller due to thin fabric between the rollers and the foot.

Although available at a price not regularly considered as being economical, I would still advocate towards prospective buyers seriously considering the possible purchase of LM6800 by Kahuna Massage Chair. Executing consistent levels of comfort quality, I rate it as 4.6 out of a total of 5 stars.

Buyers of the MK-II Plus were mostly delighted with their purchase and seemed to grow used to the excellent quality of the massage chair; however, one major drawback which was highlighted in many reviews was of its foot-massage causing discomfort and in extreme cases bruising.

The discomforting intensity of the foot massage as well as only limited warranty being offered by manufacturers are the core reasons behind why I would rate the MK-Plus at 4.5 stars out of a total of 5. Aside from those mentioned above, The MK-II Plus is guaranteed to deliver maximum quality massages within an affordable price range.

Customers were considerably satisfied with the Shiatsu Massage Chair, particularly due to its economic price-range along with the core features it offers. Below average reviews were mostly by those users for whom either the kneading function of the footrest seemed too subtle, or for those whom of which had to install an additional neck cushion to avoid discomfort. Complaints were also made regarding the limited warranty provided by the manufacturers.

The massage programs were a little too subtle for my liking, even with higher intensity, especially for the footrest. I would have preferred airbag massage therapy placed in the footrest rather than several kneading balls, that's just my liking which is why I placed the kneading technology among the pros. This massage chair would go well for those whom of which have a low price budget; although, I would advise to make additions in the budget and opt for a different massage chair.

The positive reviews provided by customers outnumbered the ones who pointed out flaws in the chair. Aside from variations between different massage settings of various body parts, users of the Shiatsu Massage Chair 161 by BestMassage were extremely satisfied with not only the budget-friendly price of the massage chair but also the core features it had to offer its users.

For me, I had to rate the Shiatsu Massage Chair 161 by Best Massage with 4.1 stars out of a total of 5. A core reason for it was the discomfort caused by the intensity of the lower back massage as well as brief limited warranty period being provided by manufacturers. It is most commonly only after a year-worth of usage that massage chairs parts tend to wear out.

It was honestly a bit of a tedious task to come across reviews by customers which were dominated by negative comments or ratings. A sheer majority of users were 100% satisfied and happy with their decision to have purchased the Superior Massage Chair SM-7300. The only issues I came across in reviews of users pertained to certain intensities of the massages being too rough for users.

I would rate this amazing massage chair with 4.7 stars out of an aggregate of 5. The only small issue I faced was with being unable to save customized massage programs as well as the neck massage being too subtle for my liking. Everyone has varying personal preferences for their liking of massage intensities; therefore, the neck massage being too subtle is not necessarily a disadvantage.

An insufficient number of reviews were found for the Dreamwave by customers, many of which were not to escalated about paying such a high price for the massage chair. The one common factor which was applauded by consumers in almost all reviews was the excellent customer services Inada had to offer their customers regarding queries or warranty issues.

I rated the DreamWave Massage Chair by Inada with 4.3 stars out of 5. Personally, I felt as though there was no ‘wow’ factor integrated within the chair. The features present within were highly expected, when one pays for a massage chair which costs nearly $9000. There were no such prominent factors which would possibly set aside the Dreamwave as being superior to other massage chairs available in the market for half its total price.

With the customer reviews, I came across, the Shiatsu Massage Chair by Mr-Direct is a personal favorite concerning its price and the essential features it offers, for many buyers in the market. A few complaints were also made about this particular massage chair not being able to accommodate users below the 5'8 body height effectively.

For its economical price, and core features integrated within, I would give this particular massage chair 4.3 stars out of 5. I highly doubt any better options, with a higher number of essential features, can be found in the market for the same price as that of the Shiatsu Massage Chair by Mr-Direct.

Only an insufficient number of reviews were available by users of this particular chair due to which a generalized representation of consumer reviews cannot be brought forward. Any to all reviews which were available consisted of users loving their new, highly budget-friendly massage chair.

I would rate this particular massage chair at 4.1 stars out of a total of 5, even though I rated the New Shiatsu Massage Chair by Mr-Direct at 4.3 and their features were the same. The difference; however, existed in the factor regarding whether the massage chair needs to be assembled manually after delivery. Although very easy to assemble, The Shiatsu Massage Chair Recliner still lost points in my books. Being the cheapest massage chair in the market helped it still score 4.1 stars though.

Users of the Shiatsu Massage Chair by Real Relax were in general delighted with their purchase, available at such an economical price along with all essential features integrated within; there were not many negative reviews about this massage chair.

I would rate the Shiatsu Massage Chair by Real Relax with a total of 4.3 out of 5 stars. Aside from the absence of a body-scanning system, I failed to come across any major disadvantages buyers would come across following the purchase of this particular product.

For its price, buyers of the Massage Recliner by GMS were in general satisfied with their purchase. The only complaints that were noticed within user reviews were regarding the inability for the massage chair to be locked into one position while reclining and the difficulty faced while trying to set the footrest.

I would rate the Massage Recliner by GMS with 3.9 stars out of 5. I feel as though for its price; the massage functions are not enough. Another one-to-two pre-set massage programs would have made a whole lot of difference by giving a wider range of massage motions for users.

I was able to come across many positive reviews regarding the chair being worth its cost; however, I also came across the same as many negatively marked reports. Many users complained about receiving defaulted massage chairs, noisy massage function as well as only vibration being utilized for mode of massaging.

I would rate this massage chair at a 3.7 out of a total of 5 stars, essentially because it lacks several features which other massage chairs within this price range consist of, such as heat-transmitters, massage concentration points, etc. This particular massage chair is not one of my personal favorites.

Users of this massage chair are in general satisfied not only with its price but also with factors such as the ease of assembling the chair, its relatively smaller size. At the same time; however, users who are comparatively taller are subject to discomfort due to its smaller size and the inability to adjust with the body type of its user.

I would rate this massage chair at 3.8 stars out of 5, mainly because I am above the 5’10 height mark due to which I felt as though this chair was more discomforting than comforting due to its smaller structure.

Complaints were mostly made regarding only vibration motion being utilized for massaging function, an uncomfortable footrest, as well as the inability of the chair to accommodate taller individuals. Otherwise, many customers were satisfied with the chairs beside from the aspects mentioned above.

I would rate this chair with a 3.9 out of 5 stars due to its significant number of cons and would advise prospective buyers to opt for a massage chair with a greater number of massaging functions. For its price; however, I think such issues can be expected from massage chairs.

Buyers of this particular massage chair had numerous complaints regarding its performance, although there were a significant number of satisfied customers. Negative reviews pertained to issues with the massage chair itself being either defaulted or unable to comfortably accommodate users with a wider or a taller body-frame.

I would rate the iJoy Active Massage Chair by Human touch with 4.0 stars out of a total of 5. If you consider yourself to be a prospective buyer on a tight $500 budget, then iJoy Active Massage Chair would suit you best considering; however, that you are no taller than the 6’1 height-frame.

A majority of the reviews by clients of the iJoy-2310 consisted of positive remarks regarding the exceptionally consistent performance of their purchase.Reviews by users seemed to indicate that customers were highly satisfied with the different massage ranges that were offered; however, complaints and negative remarks were noticed by customers whom of which exceeded either the height or the weight limit listed for the iJoy-2310.

I would highly recommend the iJoy-2310 for prospective buyers considering; however, that they do not have a body-frame which goes beyond the height limit of 6’feet or are above the 200 lbs weight mark. Due to the availability of an extensive number of manual massage settings alongside pre-set massages, merged with a budget-friendly price, I would rate the iJoy-2310 by Human Touch at a 4.0 out of 5 stars.

Clients of this massage chair were particularly delighted, not only with its price but also, with the vast number of essential features it has to offer users. Any negative feedback only pertained to several customers receiving defaulted massage chairs, whom of which were later dealt with by Real Relax themselves.

I would rate the Full Body Massage Chair Favor-03 at 4.2 out of a total of 5 stars mainly because all essential features worked perfectly well, without any discomfort being caused. The factor of consistency being delivered by the Favor-03 by Real Relax is another primary reason behind this particular massage chair being highly recommended to prospective buyers.

Clients of the New Shiatsu Massage Chair EC-69 by BestMassage has an equal number of mixed responses over the efficiency and effectiveness of the chair itself. For many users, purchasing the chair itself proved to be a hassle since it ceased to function after short periods of time following which, the manufacturer's customer support services could not be contacted for aid. There were; however, several customer reviews by satisfied users, stating that the money was well spent.

I would rate the New Shiatsu Massage Chair EC-69 with 4 out of 5 stars, although I came across a significant number of negative reviews, yet I did not witness this massage chair breaking down. I was very satisfied with the vast number of manual massage settings it had to offer, for all kinds of massage purposes. I would; therefore, definitely recommend this massage chair to prospective buyers on a small budget.

Buyers of the iJoy-2580 Premium Robotic Massage Chair gave back a very high number of mixed reviews, mostly were from unsatisfied customers complaining about defaulted massage chairs being delivered to them, many of which also stated that the massage chair worked well for the initial few months following which the product stopped functioning.

I would rate the iJoy-2580 Premium Robotic Massage Chair by Human Touch at a 3.9 out of stars. During my time of utilization, the massage chair did not malfunction, which was one complaint dominating the customer reviews. The chair did; however, cause discomfort since I am more towards the taller size frame, so I would not recommend this for prospective buyers above the 5’11 height range.

Clients of the Shiatsu Massage Chair by Brookstone were very satisfied with its performance; however, any complaints that were made pertained to those customers whom of which managed to get defaulted massage chairs somehow or were those which are relatively taller.

I would not recommend this massage chair to prospective massage chair buyers whom of which can be categorized as being taller than the 5’11 height mark. Although, its compact structure may be advantageous to many, but can be the cause behind comfort for taller individuals. Other than this aspect, I consider the Shiatsu Massage Chair by Brookstone is a great product and would rate it with 3.9 stars out of an aggregate of 5.

The reviews found by Customers of the Smart 3-D Advanced Massage Chair by Ogawa were completely in-favor of prospective buyers on a higher budget purchasing this excellent item due to its consistently exceptional quality of features and massage programs. No customer reviews were found which criticize the product or gave a review lower than that of 4 stars out of an aggregate of 5.

When I am expected to pay $7000 for a massage chair, I automatically assume one which functions flawlessly while delivering maximum quality comfort, rejuvenation, recovery and that is exactly the experience which was provided via the Smart 3-D Advanced Massage Chair by Ogawa. Although, it is categorized as being among the most expensive massage chairs, yet it is worth every penny paid for the purchase.

Consumers of this product had absolutely no negative feedback to give; although, each of them did voice their hesitation while deciding to purchase a product of such high-price. All that faced this uncertainty, were eventually satisfied with their purchase after being subject to high-end massage programs via the iRobotics 7 Medical Massage Chair by Luraco Technologies.

I would rate this chair with 4.7 stars out of a total of 5, the only minor issues I faced was with the constant dispositioning my neck went through during the rollers were functioning. I would not consider it as anything more than a minor most flaw; other than which, the iRobotics 7 Medical Massage Chair by Luraco is an exceptionally great choice of massage chair to purchase within the higher price budget.

A majority of buyers of this particular massage chair were reasonably satisfied with their costly purchase; yet, there were a considerable number of users whom of which complained about the massages and their varying intensity being too subtle or gentle for their personal preference. Only a very few individuals were subject to being delivered Sogno Dreamwave Massage chairs that were defaulted.

The Sogno Dreamwave Massage Chair by Inada, by me, is rated 4.3 stars out of a total of 5. My personal preference lies within massage motions being towards the more higher intensity, which is one of the only reasons behind why this particular chair is not among my personal favorites within the category of the most expensive massage chairs. This chair would be idealistic for owners whom of which are more towards the old group, or among young individuals, basically, those that enjoy subtle massage experiences.

With massage chairs of a considerably lower price range, it is normal to come across customer reviews of all kinds. Many users of the Power Massage Chair complained about the certain functions seizing to work, as well as defaulted remote control systems. While positive reviews praised the product not only for its budget-friendly price but also its high number of essential features.

For prospective buyer on a below $300 budget, I would recommend this particular massage chair. I believe that within the budget above, users will obviously not be able to experience all essential massage features integrated within a chair. There will be pros as well as cons in the form of certain missing features within a cheap budgeted massage chair. I would rate this product with 3.9 stars out of a sum of 5.

An equal number of mixed reviews was found upon this chair by buyers, the factor which most customers loved most was most apparent; its price. There were many; however, that complained about either the leg massage intensity being too high for their liking or the heating system being too low for their personal preference.

I would rate this chair with a 3.8 since I felt as though the width of this chair was narrower than I would have wished for it to be and would prove to be a little discomforting for users who are more towards the wider body width range.

A majority of the reviews by clients of the Massage Reclining Chair by Recliner Genius were dominated with unsatisfied users. The most prominent issue which was highlighted pertained to some defaulted massage chairs being delivered because of which many users were unhappy with their purchase.

I would rate this chair with only 3.6 stars out of a total of 5. For me, the seat of the chair felt as being too low, and due to that reason, it took extra effort not only to sit but also get back up from the massage chair. The reclining of the chair is not as smooth as I would prefer for it to be, it needs to be pushed back with more effort, for the reclining actually to take place, and the same is the case with the footrest.
