Having been a Tradesmen all my working life I've learned there is reason to spend on quality tools.  Quality outlast sometimes by years and performance is far superior to cheesy plastic cased inexpensive power tools made in some other land.         This massage unit is  well designed quality built and does wonders on the wife and my aching bodies.   We like ours so much we bought two more and made gifts of them.   I am no way being compensated for this review by CoreProducts,  But hey, if they want to send me some thing, we're glad to accept. :^)
