Review: Wow. Unexpectedly great - Update: I’m getting close to
two years, using this massager. It’s still a wonderful product. I
did have a “duh“ moment when I realized that I could use the flat
top of the massager as one of the vibrating surfaces. The top is
covered with a soft, thick, and sturdy material that’s probably
made of silicone. Sometimes it’s nice to use a big vibrating
surface on something like your lower back. Original Review: I'm
impressed. This is a wonderful massager, with lots of power, more
power than I'm used to having in a massager. I only use this
massager on the lowest power level because that's all I need. It
isn't too powerful and doesn't bruise my skin. It's easy to hold
and isn't too heavy. I say that as a woman with small hands, gray
hair, and so-so muscles. You can feel the vibration somewhat
through the handle when the massager is turned on, but I don't
notice the vibration unless I think about it. The design of this
massager is thoughtful. I appreciate that the different massage
heads are permanently affixed to the top of the massager so they
don't wobble and you don't have to stop and change heads. None of
the heads have sharp edges to cut you. All of them feel nice and
smooth. I prefer using the bigger metal head, as it has a nice
curved shape and covers more of my skin at one time. I can use it
directly on my skin or over my clothes. The smaller metal head
can be used to dig deep, but I seldom need that. The bigger black
silicone(?)-covered head is best used directly on the skin, as it
tends to drag when used on cloth-covered skin. If you buy this
massager, read the instructions. Really, for once, just read
them. They have some important caveats. Don't use the massager in
certain places on your body or if you have certain conditions.
Keep the massager moving. Limit how long you use the massager
each time. Etc. Please read them. The storage case is well made
and has a zipper that goes around far enough to open the case so
it lays flat. The massager fits snuggly into a molded well in the
case. There's a pocket on one side of the case to store the
instruction manual and charging cord. It's nice to store
everything in one case, with the massager protected against being
banged around, instead of storing all this stuff in a ziplock
bag. The charging instructions were a little confusing, so here's
the skinny. Just plug one end of the charging cord into the
bottom of the massager and the other end into your power source.
The lights on the bottom of the charger will light up. First one
light will be lit, then two lights will be lit, then three, etc.,
until all five lights are lit at the same time. Then all the
lights will go out, and the sequence starts again. You'll know
the charger is completely charged when all five lights on the
bottom stay fully lit. That's it. I don't know how long the
massager will run before it runs out of charge; I tend to
recharge after every three or four uses. In my experience, even
with the first charge, it charged faster than the instructions
indicated. Everybody's body is different, so I respect that your
experience may vary. This massager may be too powerful for you or
too heavy or whatnot. You may have a condition that makes this
massager not right for you. As for me, I have a fairly sensitive
body, and it's worked great for me.
Review: One of the best massagers - I'd like to start by saying,
I've tried several massagers, vibrators, percussion guns and
other means of relaxing/ beating knots away. This vibrator is
absolutely the best one, in my opinion. What makes this one stand
out compared to others? The price, the functionality, the build
quality and the customer service. At the price point, it quickly
pays for itself when you consider the cost of going and getting a
massage. It functions great. Rather than a percussion gun that
beats on you, this provides a high rate vibrate massage which in
my opinion is far more relaxing and enjoyable. I did have issues
with two of the massagers I bought. One issue being a loud
buzzing noise which made the session unbearable. The other issue
was that the power would cut in and out with very minimal
pressure applied. When I reached out to the customer service,
Euan, was exceptionally helpful in resolving the issue. I've
bought 3 r1 and the r1 pro. I've been happy with both and will
continue to recommend them to others
