Customer Reviews of Homedics QRM-400H Therapist Select Quad-Roller Massaging Cushion with Heat
Customer Review: Big chair massage functionality on the cheap.
Summary: 5 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
While living in Japan, I used a lot of high end massage chairs. They're everywhere, particularly at hot spring bath places(100 yen for five minutes), hotels, and the living rooms of well-aged men. In Japan the massage chair is omnipresent.
But I moved back from Japan a few years ago: no more massage chairs until I buy my own I feared. How sad.
And now, how happy I am that I've got a Homedics QRM-400H. It's absolutely excellent. It massages as well as many full size massage chairs, and for only about $150.
My wife, who is from Japan, immediately thought it could not be good because it's not a Japanese brand (if it isn't Japanese, it's crap is the motto in our house), but even she had to admit the quality of the massage was just as good, and the heat function is something neither of us has ever seen before in a massage chair.
She's shorter than I am, so this does reach all the way up to the base of her neck, but not mine. This is true of many high end massage chairs though.
The fact that something this inexpensive does rolling and shiatsu, options for upper or lower back, the ability to set the width of the rollers, choose a single spot anywhere in the range of the massager, AND heat is just amazing. This is just a fantastic deal.
CON/Advice (not really a problem): You absolutely must add some kind of padding between the chair and your back otherwise the massage is too strong (better than being too weak right?) and cause injury. I use an old polar fleece sweater, but it's probably better to go with a towel especially if you're going to turn on the heat function. The advantage to this though is that you can wash and replace whatever cover or pad you use for cheap versus having it come with some kind of cover, it wearing out, and thus trashing the chair.
BOTTOM LINE: If you do sports (where a back massage is a necessity) or simply enjoy a decent back massage once in a while, you couldn't do better than this without spending significantly more money for either a chair or a professional session. I actually save money on this bit of health maintainence by having my own massage chair function.
I'm not saying I'll never get a professional massage again, but I wont need to spend money on one as often since this massage chair takes care of my typical needs. At the very least, it saves me from having to beg my wife to give me a massage where I can't do it myself.

The Quad-Roller massaging cushion lets you enjoy state of the art relaxation. This cushion features 6 different programs and an advanced microprocessor control with targeted relief for your back. The 4 independent rollers travel up and down your back. The 30-second instant heat provides penetrating relief and the spot shiatsu holds the massage action just where you need it. The custom command track adjusts the massage width to custom fit your body. The easy to use hand control creates the ultimate massage at the touch of a button.You'll think that you spent hundreds on a massage chair, but you didn't. Thanks to breakthrough technology, a real massage chair mechanism in a convenient cushion is within your reach. So relax and rejuvenate while both Shiatsu and Rolling Massage treat your entire backÂ?-or just target problem areasÂ?-to a custom massage where and how you want it. The QRM-400H easily fits most chairs and, of course, all budgets.
The QRM-400H features Shiatsu and rolling massage; four independent rollers travel up and down the back, targeting all of the major areas. The unit comes with six programs: full, lower, or upper back in Shiatsu, plus a rolling massage for each of the three modes. As soon as you find that ideal spot, you have the power to hold the massage action in that exact spot until you get the relief you need, thanks to spot Shiatsu massage.
Using the "width" button on the supplied remote, you can actually adjust the width of the rollers to comfortably fit your body. Plus, the integrated strapping system turns an ordinary chair into a powerful stress reliever. Vivid LED illumination lights up the massage mechanism in a cool blue, allowing you to actually see it in action.
