Well, I like it so far!
First of all: This is a really nice looking unit. And it *feels* like quality as well. The main device has a good weight to it, which gives the impression of quality. The back of the unit is very pretty. However, it does take fingerprints easily. But it looks so nice, I don't mind that at all. The cables feel durable, and the pads are very nice!<br />For my initial testing, I started with my knee which had been giving me some pain. I was having a slight stabbing pain in my knee when I would bend it. After the first use (about 10-15 minutes) I was pleasantly surprised to no longer feel that pain! A note about leg hair: I am not a particularly hairy man, but I'm hairy enough that band-aids and such have plenty of hair to rip out and cause me the standard discomfort that comes with hair being ripped out. I had 4 pads around my knee. 2 above and to either side of the knee. 2 below and to either side. The top 2 pads came off very easily (very minimal hair here). The 2 on my lower leg, however, had plenty of hair to grab on to. I moved steadily but slowly and felt some pulling, but, surprisingly , there was not a single hair stuck to the pads. As secure as they felt, this was shocking. The pads were still plenty sticky after use, and I look forward to many more sessions with the same pads.<br />I watched a couple YouTube videos for advice on pad placement. I'm very impressed with how it handled this slight pain. I have not had the opportunity to test on more severe pain yet, but my wrists and hands have a tendency to become incredibly painful when work gets very busy. For a change, I'm almost looking forward to the next pain flare up, so I can put this unit to work against it!<br />Again, so far sooo good! This is the only TENS unit I have ever tried, but I'm impressed. Having just recently turned 40, I'm sure I have more random pain to look forward to. Hopefully this thing does the trick. If I have any notable experiences with this device in the future, I will be sure to update this review!
