I bought this item for my wife, who has a pinched nerve in her back and visits the chiropractor on a regular basis. This item, in conjunction with a few other items that I bought at the same time, have become her new favorite items in the house...this one even more so since she can use it in the car (if I'm driving, naturally...don't be the sort of idiot that drives while trying to use one of these things). Plus, the laughter that it causes when she tries to talk while using (the vibrations/reverb mess with your voice, naturally) it is enough stress-relief for me. ;)

2.0 out of 5 stars Ok, but SBM-200 is better, October 20, 2005

This massager is alright, I bought it prior to buying a Homedics SBM-200. I find that the stationary massage points leave much to be desired. For double the money you get a much better massage with the SBM-200 since it moves up and down your back.

I wish I knew ahead of time that you can only use the heat when the massage is on. My husband for instance just wants HEAT and he can't have just the HEAT. If I would of known I would of purchased a different one. So I could use HEAT alone!!!

Other than that I guess it's ok.
