Nice jade massage tool set. Large rollers on one tool. Issues with Gua Sha Jade.
The very first glance of the jade massage tools, I was enamored of the rich green coloration. Plus the massage roller seemed to have a roller that was larger than usual. I was thus prepared to have this product exceed my expectations.<br />The roller has good quality materials, with decent manufacture. I am a bit dismayed because the rollers seem to interact directly with the golden tone metal arms. Most credible massage rollers have a 'buffer' , like a gasket, that minimizes the stone from rolling against the bare metal. This is important because direct contact will eventually take a toll on either part. The rollers on this tool more freely, but keep in mind that the stone is rolling against the metal rod. Add pressure and you have a circumstance wherein friction will gradually erode either of both contact surfaces. This issue is little noticed, unless you have some experience with this type of massage device.<br />The gua sha jade stone, also with the striking green hue, unfortunately had a number of issues. It has pitting on the surface, a nick on the edge and a few obvious scratches on the surface. I understand that natural jade stone will have imperfections, but nicks on the edge are not acceptable, and scratches that appear to be a machine error, not a natural phenomenon definitely affect the rating.<br />So, I have to say that my expectations were not met. In fact, sad to say, examination lead to disappointing issues. As such, this massage roller and gua sha earn a 3.5 - 3.75 star rating.
