Kahuna Massage Chair SM-7300 Dark Brown/Black for Premium Quality Comfort and Relaxation at Home- Top Performance-Total 9 Auto Programs Including 4 Special Programs with SL-Track Rollers

We have had our chair for 3 weeks now, and are using it everyday. My husband and I love the variety of pre-programmed massages the chair comes with, and are starting to use the manual programming capabilities of the chair. We are finding that we can get the kind of massage we want by combining a pre-programmed setting with the specific massage components it offers for a really satisfying massage. A number of our family members have used the chair, and only one felt it was too hard of a massage; the others have loved their experience. My husband feels that his back is loosening up, as well as that the circulation in his legs is improving. I find that my muscles are more relaxed and my back is in alignment better than before using the chair. It was delivered within a few days, and the deliverymen brought it right to the room we wanted it in. The assembly took us a few hours, but wasn't too difficult, even though it required some common sense when the directions were not very well explained. I have been very impressed with the customer service in the couple of times I had to call about little things. I had to choose between spending our money on airfare to Hawaii, or buying this chair, and I feel that I made the right choice. This is so well built that it compares to chairs we have tried out that sell for 2 and 3 times the price, and will be something we will enjoy for years to come. The massage is great, and combined with the compression, it really is a great value for the money. Now, 5 years later, we have had no problems with this chair. We use it probably once a week, on average, and I have found it to be very helpful when my back is out or my muscles are really tight. It helps me get back to feeling good again.

Love my new massage chair! I have fibromyalgia and a bit of arthritis in my lower back. Before, my lower back specifically the piriformis muscles, were so tight would "twitch and pinch" & I'd feel like I couldn't move. Bending over to pick something up was doable but standing back up straight was another issue. Trying to find a comfortable position to sleep was hard, this has helped sooo much. First - I did tons of research & price comparisons on massage chairs & the Kahuna came out on top- only 3 complaints with Better Business Bureau compared to others with few dozen complaints. Second - got a great deal on this particular model in comparison to other sites. Third- I have contacted this dealer a couple of times & have had quick response. Now about the chair: came in 2 boxes, 1 very heavy & large box with the chair & arm portions & a smaller one with the foot portion. It took both my husband & son to bring in the house. Chair is large & does take up a good bit of space in my living room. Assembly was easy with 2 people & directions. There are some of the pre-programs & the auto setting on the remote that can be VERY rough. Yes the air bags on this can squeeze very hard but can be used without using the foot portion or use a gentler mode. There is an emergency stop on the remote if needed. The are enough settings to find something that works for you. My only complaint is that the rollers don't come higher on my upper shoulders/neck. According to the manual (which I did have to download, the one that comes with the chair was not as informative) there is a way to adjust that but have not had any luck so far.

Pros: - I love the pressure on the air pillows especially on the arms legs and shoulders.- Seems well made. We have had it for 4 years with no issues. We disassembled and moved it toother rooms in the house with ease.- no issue with material wear or fading- as far as massage chairs goes, it looks nice and not overwhelmingly like a piece of space agefurniture.Cons: - the hip air pillow are horrible. They always pop out of the chair frame or just inflate on top of yourthigh.- The massage balls are a bit hard, but you can change the setting.Nice to have: - The remote can be more intuitive. At least backlight the buttons so you can see them in thedark.
