Oster Stim-U-Lax Professional Massager Review

Oster Stim-U-Lax Professional Massager
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This massager is great! We had one for 21 years and it finally wore out; I hope the new one lasts as long. It is so easy to massage sore muscles -no requirement for strength or repetitive motion (thus hurting muscles) by the person giving the massage. Only have to place your hand over the sore muscles while attached to the massager. The only negative is that the wire coils don't fit a woman's hand very well -- I have to readjust the fit every minute or two because the vibration causes it to come loose. It's not a major thing -- I highly recommend the massager as being easy and painless to use, while achieving great results.

Homedics BL-300 JetSpa Footbath Review

Homedics BL-300 JetSpa Footbath
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I spend at least 8 hours plus on my feet at work and when I come home I enjoy a nice soak. So I thought to treat myself to a foot spa instead of a plain old pail of water.
Yes, this is a fairly quiet footspa, but it is not worth the time nor the money. Please let me tell you why:
The bubbles cause major heat loss and not much benefit as far as a massaging action for my poor feet. I put hot hot water in, and within 5 minutes that water is COLD. Almost colder than if I had it in a plain ol' PAIL of WATER.
I can't use soap or any other type of treatment or additive to the water because it might clog the bubble jets or bubble up to overflow the edge and make a mess. My pail of water doesn't mind any sort of additives.
The fancy shmancy spinning disc thingy only works when held down at just exactly halfway. Too high? Nope, no spinning. Pushed all the way down? Nope, no spinning. Only when my foot is held at juuust the right angle and juuuust the right pressure I get the wonderful benefit of the brush or the pumice or the littly spinny balls.
You know, I'm not sure what the brush is supposed to do for me. Clean my feet? My feet are pretty clean already, and anyway the brush is only able to clean the soles of my feet in any thorough way, just because of the angles involved. The foot tops and toenails get no love.
But it doesn't matter, because I burnt out the motor on the pedicure spinny thingy within 3 days. It doesn't turn anymore, no matter how hard or how lightly I press. So I'm back to just the bubbler and the tepid water.
The bubbler feels nice, but if I place my feet flat on the bottom of the footspa it seems to block or diminish the bubbles, causing me to want to raise up my legs and let the bubbles be free. Also causing me to wonder why I'm trying so hard to enjoy something that is supposed to help me relax.
My handheld pumice, my husband (The Massage Master) and my pail of water are all far better than this contraption, which to me is simply a $40 stupid tax.

Helen Of Troy Hotspa Professional Ultimate Foot Bath Review

Helen Of Troy Hotspa Professional Ultimate Foot Bath
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Let's start off with the misleading product reviews. Apparently the seller changed the item they sold from one that heats the water to a cheaper product that doesn't heat the water. It is now just "Keep Warm Heat." They didn't remove the glowing reviews however, and if you're not careful, you'll think you are ordering the better unit. The majority of the reviews for this product are for a product that is not actually being sold. I'm pretty sure that's not how product reviews are supposed to work.
Not only that, but the downgraded product doesn't even do what it is is actually supposed to do - "Keep Warm Heat." I put hot water into it, ran the product, and ended up with cold water and cold feet. And the three spa attachments don't stay on. Apply a little pressure from your foot (as directed) and they pop right off and fly across the room.
So I paid for a product based on reviews for a different product, and ended up with a paperweight that doesn't even work as well as the standard bathtub that came free with my house. And this product is significantly pricier than its competitors.
Don't waste your money.

I found the Oster hand-held massager to be an easy and effective machine to use on yourself. As a massage therapist, I would highly recommend this product to my clients for their own self-care treatment. It is both a simple and versatile tool for capably massaging and soothing tired muscles.
It also offers a sense of nostalgia to my older clients who remember using one years and years ago. These little units are solidly built and can last a lifetime.

I ordered two of this product and both of them was recieved damaged. I was able to make one working unit out of the two broken ones. It would be very easy to break when used. The vibrating unit is held onto the brush head with a super small screw which could break or strip out very easy.

Pipedreams Vibrating Hair Brush Boxed Review

Pipedreams Vibrating Hair Brush Boxed
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This brush does what is stated that it would do. But its craftmanship is very fragile. My 2 year old accidently knocked the brush off the end table and it falled on my hardwood floor. When I picked it up the battery cover had come off and the batteries had falled out. I insert the batteries back in and put the cover back on only to find that the brush handle had slightly cracked in its seam from the fall so now the battery cover will not stay closed. So I wrapped the cover on with clear tape so when I use the brush I wont hve to be frustrated by trying to hold the cover on so the batteries wont fall out. The product would have gotten a much higher rate if it was shatterproof resistant. Just one short distant fall will just about kill this brush!

Scalp Massager (Colors May Vary) Review

Scalp Massager (Colors May Vary)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am something of a connoisseur of scalp scratchers. I've bought the solid copper ones (happy company, head trip) and the vibrating ones. Those don't really do the trick for me. I light that light, tingly feeling like something is crawling all over my head. The other scratchers I have tried have wires or 'fingers' that are just too thick and/or too rigid. With most, the wires are designed in such a way that I'd have to bend them in just the right way or could come close to hurting myself.
This one has thin, flexible, stainless wires with small plastic nibs at the tips. The wires are not adjustable, but it doesn't matter. I haven't wanted to adjust them. I think this item is simply wonderful; I purchased one at Bed Bath And Beyond and gave it away as a gift (stupid!), then I couldn't find another until I came here to Amazon (yay!).
Note: Unlike the picture, the stem or handle is a textured silver metal, not copper. Doesn't matter to me, though. Feels the same. Awesome.
