Customer Reviews of HoMedics iCush-100 Immersive Audio Sync Massage Seat
Customer Review: Way better than expected.
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my boyfriend, a major gamer, for his birthday. He was totally excited to open it and can't stop thanking me for it. He's only had it for a few days, but he has used it quite a bit.
My first concern was the speaker quality. He says the speakers work really well and was surprised about that since they arn't very big speakers. You can move the speakers around, they go up and down as well as twist a litle to face inward or outward.
The audio sync also works better than I expected. It's not that exciting if you're just watching a show on television, but it's great with video games (We played Lego Star Wars and it vibrated and massaged to the theme song), and I'm sure it would be fun with action movies or games like Halo. It also works well with different types of music. A great way to unwind from a long day would be to sit in it and listen to some Classical music.
Not only does it have the audio sync, but you can also use it as a normal massage chair and it's got 3 speeds, 3 levels of strength, and 3 modes (which sections vibrate at once). The wiring is easy to figure out- even I was able to get it hooked up to test it pretty quickly. You can also control the volume through a little dial on the cord. It even has a little pocket attached to put the remote in while you are using it.
As for downsides. I can't think of any. I think the only issue is that the cord might be too short depending on where you want to use it. It's fine for using in front of the television, but if I wanted to hook it up to the radio, and use it while I was on the computer on the other side of the room, it wouldn't reach. I'm sure you can buy an extension for it if needed.
Overall, I think it's a great product and a wonderful buy. I finally found something to get him that he doesn't already have. Ladies, if your man loves video games but you're not sure which game to buy him or you want to get him something other than a game, this is it! I'm pretty tight about spending money on things like this, but this was worth every penny.
