Maybe thinking of buying one, but not thick skin /dun have time to try the demos in shop/mall.

Anyone has first hand experience and care to share differences in those models out there? Really give good massage or just make believe?

OSIM is the most expensive and seems the pioneer ... is it the best in terms of massage?

I've tried the OSIM one in OU,its very nice and very relaxing!

So comfortable you can sleep in it!

Aside from nice, relaxing and comfortable, any feedback on the massage?

I don't need a 20+k chair I can sleep in

You can try those chairs in 1 Utama, I passed by them every morning in 1Utama new wing.

They have a demonstration of massaging chair and the flab shaker (the horse riding one) over here.

I wonder how's the sales like, seems like a lot of those on display.

Nothing beats the real massage by human hands.

IMHO, I still think its a waste of money to purchase these things. ...especially those machines that SHAKES your wholebody to lose fats...its like wtf man?

I think ppl would get more results by spending that amount of money and join a gym and go on a treadmill. Heck even buy a treadmill and use it at home.

Oh wait....this is about feedback and results of using those chairs..crap..sorry.. >.<

IMO, I think massage chair is not a bad idea.

Reason being that, people might not have the time nor the availability of a transport to go for massage parlour or a massage centre.

IMHO, nothing beats a cheapo massage chair and watching a good movie or tv series at home.

Hehe....sounds good

Of course, nothing beats the original.

Surprised you never mention one alternative : Hire fulltime indonesian maid to give only massages everyday



As for going to gym, etc..... it's a multi-million (if not billion) dollar industry for customers to lose weight without doing anything (eg. diet food/pills, machines/gadgets, any shortcuts.

Btw, how much are these massage chairs anyway?

RM2k is alright anything above that is really a luxury.

2K ?!!!!

Add a zero behind it for OSIM's latest.

RM2k x 10 times somemore.

That is way too much to pay for a massaging chair.

I could buy lotsa stuff with RM20k......one decade worth of supplements, several years of massage centre services, 12 years worth of Fitness First Membership @ RM130 per month.

This is definitely for the super rich ones....

Thats why i wan to compare with the cheaper brands OGAWA or OTO, see if got difference.


Looks like no one has experience at this, I may have to be thick skin to sleep in all 3 of the chairs to try out.

There is one from OSIM which we bought few months ago for 6k+ with promotion.

It's comfortable and the massage is comfortable as well, the chair design is small as compared to other models so it fits nicely in your living room and you can enjoy it while watching TV.

There are some other models out there that cost RM14k+ etc and I don't think it's really worthwhile to get something at this price.

It's best to try it out before you purchase considering the price tag on these items.

Stupid chair is definitely a waste of money.

Get it when you've retired and don't have the strength to exercise anymore.

Real exercise = -fat +muscle +cardiovascular

I too agree it's a waste of money

save the money go thailand = massage + service + more servic + much more service + then eat tomyam hot hot

that chair is going to stop all that fun....never thought?

Finally tried the OSIM products and I'm very impressed.

Tried the UPAPA and it was very good at relieving tired back muscles, especially lower back (bought it).

Tried the USQUEEZE and was impressed again. At highest setting, it was a very strong massage and ticklish for the soles... but by end of session, my aching feet was totally loosened up.... super! Will buy this next.

Tried the USPACE .... man, tis was like a space ship. But for the price tag, I expected more (keeping UPAPA and USQUEEZE in mind). The only thing I like from this was the rollers at the sole of feet .... really tension relieving like REFLEXOLOGY pressure point treatment. The dome is actually nothing ... just to enclose you in darkness for you to concentrate on LED light which changes colors (relaxing) and music. The back and shoulders massage are no big deal.... just rolls over muscles and some shaking.... prefer my handheld massager + upapa, stronger!

Will try iMedic Pro and other chairs next time.

Ogawa got great promotions during mother's day week. I got one at home, the price is about RM7k ...
great massage and feel relax.

I've tried using OSIM, Ogawa & Oto. Osim's one is too expensive, they came out with a new white massage chair abt RM12k. Frankly I didn't find anything that useful. That massage chair can do exercise but it's isin't strong. besides that what happen if any of the parts get spoiled after ur waranty period... that chair's replaceable parts are more expensive that your car spare parts

to be honest it's a WASTE of money buying this chair ..

They keep coming out new models making your chair can be obsolete in 6-12 months ....

No point getting it ... that's FMO ...hehehe ... i rather use the money get a DAMN GOOD mattress

i tired my friend's osim but u can hear the noise made by the engine, how can u watch television with that? moreover at when it touches one point of my back it will be too "geli" my body will automatically twitch so I have no idea how do i sleep in that chair
