I wanted to not like this.

Posted by: Reptar
I can’t stop using it. I’ve had it for months now, purchased for my boyfriend since I’m bad at shoulder rubs (I pass out like 42 seconds in). Too bad he never gets to use it because I’m always using it and falling asleep on it.I was hesitant to buy it because I don’t like having *stuff* (the sort of things people buy and never use, but end up collecting for years) and was afraid it would be an eye sore. Nah. It’s great. My living room is all Bernhardt leather modern and this fits in and is hardly noticeable at all. The battery lasts a pretty long time, too. Overall I’m extremely impressed with the quality of all materials.This is too affordable to not have for those stressful days that end up cramping your traps and throwing out your neck.

If you absolutely need a battery powered pillow massager then this is it.

I've tried lots of corded pillow massagers and i can honestly say that this massager is not very strong and is somewhat slow. The reason you would choose a massager like this over a less expensive but stronger wired one is if you have no other option in terms of a power outlet. My go to wired pillow massager is very good but i do need a short extension chord to use it at my desk, most of the time i end up disconnecting it because i need to plug in something else. With this massager i can just pick it up and take it anywhere i want.This massager has a single speed which in a regular wired version would be speed 1 of 3. It also has a heat function which is very weak, the heat function is weak even in most wired ones too so to me it feels like the average heat you get from these in general. The power button also doubles as a reverse button, I've never understood this function in shiatsu massagers because the automatically reverse the spin every few seconds anyways.The one thing I really liked about this massager besides the battery is the rollers used. Almost every shiatsu massager I've tried has very large and painful rollers, the rollers in this massager are flatter making them very comfortable. Something else I liked is that this massager is also very quiet, its the quietest one I've tried so far.Overall this massager doesent perform as well as a wired one but performs perfectly fine for a battery powered one. The single speed feels slow at first but once you get into the massage it begins to feel perfect. I'm pretty sure the single speed was done to preserve battery, I'd rather enjoy a long slow massage than a very short fast massage. Using while connected doesent increase the speed or heat, only charges it while using.

Easy to use and portable massager that works great for low back pain
on January 10, 2022
Posted by: Anonymous
I've been struggling with low back pain for a long time and I am always looking for new solutions to help with this. So far I'm quite impressed with this wireless and portable massage pillow made by the company Miko.I love that it is rechargeable so it's very easy to bring along on road trips and when I go camping. I've only used this for my low back area, but based on the shape it should be good for the larger leg muscles as well.The battery lasts plenty long enough for me to get a good low back massage. It does use a proprietary charging cable so you'll have to make sure not to misplace that. It would be nice if it charged via the more standard USB.It does claim to have heat as well, it does get slightly warm but don't expect much heat from it so that's something to keep in mind.

I take back my comments.

Anything I've ever said about home massage machines, I take back. This little guy is wonderful. When I saw the size, I was like "here we go again". When I plugged it in and tried it... OMG. I was beyond surprised at how deep the massage gets, but without the usual hard grinding pain. The heat is just right too. Nice and warm while it's loosening you up. I mean, just wonderful. I can sit on my couch or lay in bed and let this baby go to work. Definitely give this a try it you're in the market for a great home Shiatsu massager.

Works great on lower back, kind of hard
on January 28, 2022
Posted by: KdbKdb
This is great for some temporary lower back relief. It's easy to just lightly lean against it while it's working. I love that it's rechargeable so I don't have to mess with the cords while using it. It is a basic shiatsu type massage with large balls that move around and provide pressure. They show using it on your neck but I didn't have much luck with that -- you have to lean on it to keep it in place and it's not very comfortable to do that. But I do enjoy using it on my lower back. It has a heat function but it doesn't really get that warm. It does have a strap on the back so you can easily wrap it around a chair and keep it in place when using it on your back. Other accessories include a carrying bag and a charger to use in your car. Overall, it could be a bit softer but it's a nice device and feels well made.

Great massager
on February 8, 2022
Posted by: littleleahgurl3
Got for my mother for Christmas, and says she loves it and it gives her relief for her back pain.When I used it it massages quite hard. So if you can handle a hard massage this is for you. Quite firm but I love the heat it comes with it.

14/10 would recommend
on April 18, 2023

I had recently been thinking about buying a massager-type product and this happened to be an option I could choose as my work anniversary gift-- best choice ever! Having to sit still and stare at computer screens all day for my job, I find my upper back, shoulders, and neck get extremely tight and achey. My partner has the opposite problem where his body gets tired and sore from having to walk around all day for his job. This lil massager has been such a relief (literally) for us both. We mainly use it on our necks and backs (upper and lower) but my partner has also used it on the backs of his legs. The internal massaging components rotate both ways and you can either wait for it to cycle through and change or you can do a short press on the power button to manually switch them. There is also a button to turn off the warming sensation but we both prefer to keep it on. It doesn't get too hot, but you will notice a lovely, gradual warmth that really helps to sooth your muscles as the massager is working. While we don't legitimately fight over it, we are always passing it between ourselves and will be "disappointed" with the other if one of us forgets to re-charge it after using it! We love this little machine!
I would recommend this to a friend!
