Not bad

Oct 4, 2002 - By Amazon Customer

It's nice to have a foot spa, but there were a few surprises. This biggest problem is that the "water jet" function, which does indeed feel good, splashes water everywhere. You need to line your chair and the floor for several feet away to keep things dry! Secondly, though the manual refers to a fill line, there isn't one. You have no idea how much water to put in this thing. I've tried lots of levels (nothing gets rid of the horrible splashing with water jets) and have one that works reasonably well, but there was a lot of trial and error involved. Lots of water on the floor too!
Also, the removable rollers are far too large and painful to do any good. Fortunately they are removable. Maybe on a very large foot they'd be okay, but not on a size 8. Ouch! And the "all-purpose" massager is totally useless. The other attachments work fine, but aren't worth extra cost -- you have to twist your foot around on top, and that's somewhat difficult. (Once I figured it out, it wasn't so bad, but it's difficult to rub the side of my toe).
The heat doesn't maintain the water temperature at all, it quickly drops. Start with the water hot and enjoy your ten minutes, that's all.
The vibration and bubble combination gives a very nice tingle on the soles of my feet -- that, I enjoy very much.

Loved spa-hated remote control

Apr 9, 2004 - By V. Grant (Albuquerque, NM USA)

I loved the spa when I could get it to work. This foot bath can ONLY be operated using the remote control, therefore if the remote goes so goes your foot bath. I could not get the spa to turn on again if I wanted to use it more than once a day. I turned it on for about 10 minutes then had to run an errand. The machine would not turn on again until the next day!!

Not what I expected

Nov 12, 2002 - By Amazon Customer

I am 6 months pregnant and was in real need of a good warm foot massager. It had all the features but they don't live up to what I thought they would be. The removeable foot rollers are too big and painful as someone else mentioned, I just take them out. The bubbles do splash water all over the floor. There is a feature that says it will maintain the temp. of the water, but it doesn't, it gets cold quick. The manicure massager is ok, but it is in an awkward place. The vibration and the bubbles are nice but that's about it. Also, there should be a selection for bubbles only (without vibration). And there is NO fill line as the directions say!

Lots of features, except heat!

Sep 30, 2002 - By Amazon Customer

Has a lot of features, and the remote makes it great so you don't have to bend over. Only problem is the water is not heated-you have to add hot water yourself. Otherwise, attachments are a lot of fun.

Maintaining

Jun 8, 2004 - By Amazon Customer

This is an awsome foot bath! I am a nail tech and I give sevral pedicures a day. This foot bath is one of the best at maintaining the water temprature. The key word is maintaining! Of course you have to put your disired water temprature in the foot bath first. So, if you know to do that this bath will please you.
