COMFIER Back Massager for Pain Relief Deep Tissue, Shiatsu Neck and Back Massager with Heat, Rolling & Compression Massage Chair Pad for Office Chair, Full Body Massage Chair Gift for Mom Dad

This is my honest review of COMFIER Neck Back Massager with Heat, Shiatsu Massage Chair Pad 2D/3D Kneading & Compression Massager. Wow that its a mouthful. I want to talk about the few things that really matter to me. Essentially, I want to talk about package presentation including shipping experience and unboxing. Next, I will talk about installation, followed by learning curve, usability, and finally the product performance review, followed by wrap-up/summarization. 1. Shopping and shipping experience You are ordering from Amazon, as you know, and there should be no problems here... if you have Prime, you should get your shipment promptly. I received my shipment 3 days after ordering, but there was a holiday weekend during my wait. 2. Unboxing - see attached photos, the box is clearly descriptive but comes in an outer cardboard box. Inside, in exactly one minute I was completely unpacked with the massager unit, AC adapter, product manual and warranty card/reminder. The remote control is attached to the unit but tucks away when not in use. All in all, the unboxing is simple and installation can be done by anybody. There are 2 elastic straps which attach to a chair you would like to use (I recommend an upright but comfortable chair.... the wooden chair that I used was a little too stiff, but hey, I was excited to start using the massager). 3. Installation and learning curve: Installation is quick. 1. Attach elastic straps to back of chair, 2. Attach AC cord to massager on one side, and outlet on the other. 3. Before you sit down, determine whether you want to remove the flap which lies in front of the middle of the machine where the shaitsu "fingers" lie. A piece of velcro holds the flap in place. The massager is more intense on the back when you do not use the flap. I like to remove the flap for this reason, and because I like seeing the lit-up shiatsu compression balls along the middle lower part of the unit (see photos - lit up in red and blue). Learning curve can be quick if you sit down and press "DEMO" on the remote. My suggestion is to do this the first time around so you can experience the different functions and areas massaged by the unit. Once you learn the remote, via a few days practice, you'll know exactly which buttons to hit to get to what you need quickly. 4. This massager has a lot of areas, functions, and hence possibilities. I have a photo of the remote control which can help me explain different features of the massager. The top row of buttons has "vibration" and "demo". Demo, as I mentioned, is a good place to start and should be about 15 minutes. Vibration refers to vibration of the seat, and has 3 intensity levels depending on how many times you push the button... low, medium, and high, then off. The 2nd row refers to the neck shiatsu massager balls... and can be raised or lowered. The rotation can be made to go clockwise or counter-clockwise, depending on your preference. Regarding the next row, I feel deep pressure with the 2D/3D button so I liked it turned on... "rolling" made the nodes travel up and down, stretching out my spinal muscle with simulated fingers. "Spot" with the 2 arrows offers fine-tuning of a spot massage without the rolling function... this is helpful when you have specific pinpoint soreness. For the row of "AIR" buttons, I like to use "Air back" along with "Air seat" to get compression in the lower back and seat areas... the intensity button feels very strong on the highest level, so I suggest starting on a lower intensity for this. Finally, the last row of buttons before the power button indicate if you want Shiatsu massage on full back, upper back, or lower back... I suggest going Full back (both lights lit I think). The heat button should be obvious, but I'm not fond of heat in my massages. 5. In summary, this is a full featured high-performance product, and I feel like this is premium and next best to getting an actual massage chair in the thousands of dollars. For this product, portability beats an actual massage chair every time... I can get this massager off my chair and packed in a minute flat. (I like to remove this massager when my nephews come by because this is a quality massager and therefore not a toy, and therefore children should not use, or at least use with supervision). This massager is everything I expect from Comfier. Thank you for reading.

I LOVE this massager. I was thinking maybe the air bag compression wouldn't do much, but I'm VERY glad I got that. It really does add a LOT to the experience. I'm in my late 60's and work on my property outside cutting logs and doing a lot of things that are hard on my muscles and my back. I used to need to see my chiropractor once a week at LEAST because of the abuse my body felt. But this massager has changed all that. Now, I massage right before and right after working outside. I use the massager a few times each time and I avoid needing trips for spinal adjustments or acupuncture. This thing really makes a difference in my quality of life. The controls are easy to use and the massager is very versatile. Before I do heavy yard work, I use the massager for one "session" with the full back setting. The shiatsu rollers travel the full length (height?) of my back and get my muscles ready to be used. The seat vibration is nice, and I usually leave the heat off on these warm summer days. The neck massage rollers are independent of the back rollers, and they can be adjusted up or down so that they hit just the right spot. I play with reversing the direction of the rollers, and they really do feel different with each setting. There is no rhyme nor reason for which feels better when, so I just play with it and when I'm happy I leave it. The air bag compression is stronger than I thought it would be originally, and it makes a huge difference in the quality of the massage. The bags hold me in place and I think that makes the rollers more effective. The bags themselves also are doing some serious work on my body and muscles, but it's hard to describe. I can tell you, though, that when I use the massager without turning on the compression bags, it's a whole different experience. It's still good, but with the bags, it's fantastic. This is actually the second one of these massagers that I have gotten. I bought the first one OVER 3 years ago, and I used it at least once a day every single day. Most days, I used it twice, and on some days after working in the yard, I used it even more. Long story short -- I gave my old one to a friend who really needed it and got myself a new one. I can NOT be without one of these, and if you have back issues, you will love this thing as well. Now, if my back is ever slightly stiff or hurting, I use the chair massage mat for a couple of times while playing video games or watching TV and my pain vanishes. I seriously can't say enough about how this product has improved my quality of life and allows me to still do a lot of yard work and work outside year round.

Surprisingly good for price. Very good back massage and teh air compression is helpful. I'ld buy it again. My only complaint would be the neck massage. Neither myself (6'1" or my wife 5'5" can make use of it. Does not make good contact. We have a separate hand held massager for the neck , so it is not a big deal for us. If the neck is our primary need, consider options.

El producto es excelente cumple con su función, y la garantía ni hablar fueron muy amables , volveré a comprar este producto

Espectacular! Mido 1.84 estoy satisfecho con los masajes. Es muy potente tanto la espalda como el cuello. A veces es demasiado duro el masaje del cuello y prefiero poner una toalla o almohada. A todos nuestros invitados les encanta. A veces me gusta poner todas las funciones a la vez, y otras prefiero solo un estímulo a la vez.

Very good massage cover. Especially the combination of the shiatsu with the air pressure elements feel really good.

Es una maravilla, es para un regalo pero la probé para saber si viene bien y la amé, sin duda la cómprare para mí

J'ai employé ce produit car je travaille beaucoup, je suis tout le temps entrain de courir partout. Je suis tout le temps tendue et n'ai pas le temps d'aller dans un salon de massage. Alors, je l'ai ramené à moi grâce à l'appareil shiatsu comfier. Depuis que je l'ai chez moi, dans mon canapé, j'avoue que c'est un véritable soulagement pour moi, pour le père de mon enfant, qui travaille aussi beaucoup. Ça détend, ça apaise, c'est confortable et facile d'utilisation. On peut régler l'intensité du massage. Changer de programme autant qu'on veut. Ce n'est pas du tout encombrant selon l'endroit où on veut l'utiliser. Moi c'est dans mon canapé devant la TV. Ça masse aussi avec compression et chaleur comme ci c'était un vrai être humain qui nous massait. La siège massant shiatsu masse la nuque, le dos entier (il pétri bien), les jambes, la hanche et le bas du dos, les épaules et le cou. C'est une vraie pepite et j'ai rien à redire. C'est juste une pure merveille. J'adore et l'utilise depuis 2022. Il fonctionne toujours aussi bien. Malheureusement, je viens de perdre le câble 😓. Depuis, je me sens un peu mal et j'ai mal partout avec le travail acharné.
