4.0 out of 5 stars Good Product
I have a bad back and this has made my trips wonderful. The massaging helps keep my back from tightning up and the heat keeps me comfortable. Anyone with back problems should have one of these.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but limited only to very small cars
I bought this for my husband to use in our Corolla. He loves the heat function and the dual massage is pretty good, the lower back works better than the upper. The only problem we found with this unit is the straps to hold it in place on the seat. They aren't long enough and the material won't stretch sufficiently to fit around the bucket seat of a Corolla! A Corolla...

I bought this for my husband to use in our Corolla. He loves the heat function and the dual massage is pretty good, the lower back works better than the upper. The only problem we found with this unit is the straps to hold it in place on the seat. They aren't long enough and the material won't stretch sufficiently to fit around the bucket seat of a Corolla! A Corolla is a midsize sedan what type of seat was this product designed to fit a VW bug?! There is no way we will ever be able to use it in our Expedition. Really bad design.

My husband has to just place it on the seat and adjust it which is not optimal since it can shift while you are driving. I got it on sale so I its worth the price I paid, but I wouldn't pay full price for it again.

In summary, a soothing massage, but poorly designed for in car usage.

There is not a better word to describe this. The vibration is WAY under powered. I can pet my cat she vibrates harder from her purring than this cushion does. I could not even hardly feel it. I got it cheap, and it was a waste of money at any price.

I just wish that it came with an auto shut off timer. If you get up to take care of something and forget that it's still on in the other room, it will stay on forever.

This is a wonderful device at an amazingly low price.

I enjoyed it a few times. Then I gave mine to a neighbor that has had terrible back troubles for years. This gave welcomed relief and sound sleep.

Dr. Scholl's Massager is a winner. It works very well and is easy to operate. The best part is that it is so inexpensive - a real bargain, and well worth the cost.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product., January 15, 2007

I love this for the heating pad function. It's great to put on the back of my recliner. It actually helps keep my spine straight and the heat is great for arthritis. I don't use the massage function so I can't comment on that. I have it in my chair at all times even when I'm not using it for heat because it is so comfortable to lean back on. I would recommend this to anyone who has back problems. It's wonderful! Can't believe the price.
