My wife and her friend both really love this, but the heat feature is barely noticeable
[[VIDEOID:45170dc89951dd53767e810619a74654]] The last time we were visiting over at my parents' house my wife tried out a massage pillow like this that my dad got my mom and she really liked it, so we looked into getting one. We were kind of surprised to find how much they cost, I mean I was thinking maybe around fifty bucks or so, not eighty! So instead of buying it we put it in our wishlist... and not long after that it showed up in the mail. My wife couldn't be happier with it, because even though it's not as strong as her heavy-duty handheld massager it is way quieter so she can actually use it while we watch TV, unlike her strong handheld massager which is so loud that we have to pause the TV until she's done. My wife suffers from chronic lower back pain so she uses this quite a bit and says it's definitely worth $80. Yesterday a friend of hers was over, saw it on the couch, tried it out, and fell in love with it as well.<br /><br />One of the neat things about this is that it has a built-in battery so it can be charged up then used without being plugged in. My wife has used this feature a couple times when she was sitting at dinning room table so that she didn't have to move the power cord from near the couch over to where she was at, but mostly she uses it while plugged in. It comes with a wall power cord and a car power cord, but she hasn't used it in the car yet.<br /><br />There is a heat feature as well, which is indicated by red LEDs lighting up on the massage rollers, but the heat is VERY mild. We were both feeling it with our hands and saying things like &#34;I think it might be a little warm&#34;, and when we would then move our hands elsewhere on the pillow we'd be like &#34;yeah, it's a little warmer than over here&#34;. So unless ours is just defective or something, don't expect a lot from the heat feature, or I should say the mildly warm feature. There is no temperature control as far as we can tell, one press of the power button turns on the massagers, a second press reverses the rotation and activates the heat, and a third press turns it off.<br /><br />Personally, I don't really care for massages or any massage devices, but my wife loves them and she loves this pillow (as does her friend) and they both think it should be rated 5 stars. She doesn't care that the heat feature can barely be felt but I think if something has a heat feature then we should be able to clearly feel when it's on and when it's not. I also still think $80 is a bit much, but the main reason I'm giving this 4 stars is because of the heat feature.
Rating: 4 stars
