Great massager. Really gets in and rubs those feet hard. The heat function is more of a warming which they probably can't make it stronger to avoid lawsutis.

It really rubs yours feet very well and gives it a strong massage. Much better than using a vibration (percussion) type massager. I highly recommend it. I've been only using it for one day at work and my feet feel great.

If given a choice between the Foot Pro Ultra Foot Massager and the Kneading Action Foot Massager, I'd choose the former for ease of use and foot warming comfort. While the Kneading Action Foot Massager has a softer surface and gives your feet a better massage, the heat is almost negligible.

Two tiny spots of heat do not a foot warmer make. Plus, this is not as comfortable under the desk. The Ultra model is perfect for under the desk and will heat your feet, this model is more likely to be used in the living room or while you are seated in a cozy chair.

The kneading action does provide a deeper massage than the simple vibration of the raised bumps on the Ultra Massager.

Benefits of the Kneading Action Foot Massager (more expensive):

Deeper Massage - Your feet will feel lighter, less tired and relaxed.

Not as easy to use under a desk because to get the full benefit, you have

to pay more attention to moving your feet over a smaller area. This feels more like a real foot massage. You have to move your feet around and sensitive feet may not enjoy the larger bumps on the rotating infrared heaters (which don't seem very warm to me).

Benefits of the Foot Pro Ultra Foot Massager (less expensive):

Vibrating Massage - Better if you have sensitive feet

Heat - you can use with massage or by itself and it really heats your feet

Perfect for use at your desk - doesn't take as much concentration to use and

you don't have to move your feet around as much. The vibrating surface

is large enough so you can just set your feet on the unit.

Both units could use a longer cord! They are both useful in their own way, you may want one of each. One to use for deep kneading action and one to use when your feet are cold and you want to warm them up and relax your feet with vibrating massage.
