I first bought this and I absolutely loved it. Easy to put together, massage and heat were great and still are. (The reason for the 2 stars)
The major flaw is the footrest release is made out of a cable with a flimsy plastic handle which started to fray at the handle within the first month and less then a year later the handle completely fell off. My husband has to get a pair of pliers to grab the sharp frayed wires to pull the footrest into place now. It was really disappointing to say the least. Definitely wouldn’t but again for this reason.
