Mostly MEH
I admit that I have higher expectations when you see that this is a reputable brand, Shaper Image. We have a different foot massager from them, and LOVE IT. This one, not so much. It' just a very meh product. There are Shiatsu massagers under the soles of your feet that spin and rotate. The top strap that goes over your feet then has air bags inflate and deflate to create a rhythmic wave like feeling as it causes the massaging nodes to press harder on the soles of your feet. Generally, I have not been a fan of any of the newer massaging devices that use inflated chambers to simulate a massaging effect. It always feels weak and borderline annoying. It's like having someone give you a back massage but doesn't press down with they hands/fingers and just does circular swirling motions. The next problem I have with this device would be the height of the massager. It's higher off the floor than most massagers, so it feels awkward and uncomfortable. Our recliners are a little higher than the couches, and it still feels a little off. Although the fabric is smooth and relatively soft, I worry about how this would hold up over time. Stretching over moving parts and rubbing dirty feet isn't a recipe for long device life.
