Customer Reviews of HoMedics BK-7000 Contact Comfort 10, 10-Point True Contact Back Massager, Black Faux SuedeCustomer Review: Unloaded the box... Summary: 5 StarsReceived this as a gift and was skeptical as to how it would work. Have some real back problems. Unloaded the box, simple instructions which by the way say not to use it in bed. Work great for both my wife and I.
I will buy another one now to use in the car when we travel. Worth the small investment.

Customer Review: My favorite mode is with the heat on and the lower back isolation mode on low. Summary: 3 StarsI just purchased this product and have been using it for a week or so. I rated it 3 stars because while it has some modes which I am very fond of and are very relaxing, it also has a couple of other quirks that I'm not so fond of.
It has 3 different strength vibrations which are suprsingly strong (low, medium, and high) You can choose to isolate sections (top of back, lower back, or thighs) but unfortunately in the isolation mode, you can only have one section on at a time which is sad since I'd like to have just my thighs and lower back isolated and I cant. There are a couple rotating or action modes where it will go from the top of the back, to the lower back, to the thighs, and so forth.
As stated in a previous review, you will be suprised how strong the vibration mode is, and they weren't kidding. In my opinion, its almost too much vibration (high, higher, and highest). If you run it for too long your whole body begins to tingle and you have to turn it off. Another little quirk i have, which in my opinion actually is a plus, is when you turn the heat on, it seems to drain strength from the vibrators and lessens the intensity of everything, which ends up being very comfortable.
My favorite mode is with the heat on and the lower back isolation mode on low. It is very soothing and pleasing and I definately enjoy this very much. This mode alone almost makes the product worth the money. Now, if you are one of those people who love a deep, powerful, and jolting massage, you'll be in total heaven with this massager.
The last quirk I have is the comfort issue. Though the product is very soft "suade" material, the vibrator and heater units tend to be a bit uncomfortable when you are not using the unit. It took me about 3-5 minutes to get the massager "strapped" into my chair (however, you could just toss it on in a matter of seconds, but i wanted it to be good and secure for long term stationary use). Problem is, when im not using it, i am sitting on the vibrator/heating unit "buldges" which is a tad uncomfortable; but what can you do? I guess you could just toss the unit on there whenever you want to use it, but what a pain in the bum.
So all in all, I'd have to say this is an excellent "portable" massager with some serious relaxation ability but loses a couple stars since its a little too powerful for me and has a some issues with comfortablity and massage choicing issues.

By the way, it comes with a car adapter if you want to travel with it; I'm looking forward to a long trip to try it out.
Customer Review: The price for this item is $52. Summary: 2 StarsI placed the order in Dec 30, 2004 using Super Saver Shipping for my wife's pain on the back. The price for this item is $52.67 with a $20 gift card. I have not received the item yet(Jan 27) and I found the delivery date was postponed from January to April. Then I still have to use other shipping options with almost one month delay.
Customer Review: the straps dont reach around a recliner... Summary: 2 Starsthere are a few bad points to this massager: its pretty loud, sounds like someone is playing really loud bass right outside your window....the motors are in the perfect spot to press directly on your spine, they should have put them off to the side a little....the straps dont reach around a recliner, i guess you're supposed to sit at a dining room chair to use it(havent tried it in the car yet)....the heat doesnt get very hot.....besides all those points its good.
