Advantages: keeps your feet warm, comfortable foot rest Disadvantages: massage function just vibrates and feels nasty
...I thought I’d review this Homedics Sqush Massaging Foot Pillow but was a bit surprised to see a picture of the neck cushion. Mine was a present and I was nicely pleased when I got it. I’m on my feet a lot and sometimes they ache
The foot pillow is a dark blue fabric with a peachy , fleecy feel. The fabric is a high denier nylon-spandex blend fabric which feels pleasant to the touch. The pillow is approx 12 in x 15 in (I can’t locate a tape measure at the moment; I’ll update this as soon as I find it). It has 2 foot sleeves you slip your feet into.
It is filled with tiny micro-sized expanded polystyrene balls, a bit like a bean bag but the balls are so small you don’t really feel them. The fabric pillow is pretty well stuffed although there is enough give so your feet settle comfortably into it. It also retains its shape well...

Advantages: Easy to use, effective, easily accessible, versatile Disadvantages: None what so ever
...rough it can leave you in more pain than necessary. That is when a friend told me about Homedics SBM 300 which is an American invention which she uses to cure her backache being heavily pregnant. So I took her advice and ordered one from Amazon at a coast of £140 and waited with excitement for the day it arrived so that I could test it out.
Homedics is in essence a cushion which is shaped like a chair without legs; it actually reminds me of a car seat. However it has been designed this way so that is can be used on your sofa, armchair, work chair and even in the car should you choose that option, in essence it is very versatile and easy to use.
The type of massage this cushion gives to you is Shiatsu and it works using the dual mechanisms which are located in the backbone of the cushion. The best way for me to describe...

Advantages: relaxing, easy to use, calming, good size Disadvantages: difficult to clean, heavy when full
...This foot spa is a very relaxing modern machine. Im not too bothered about my feet but this has made me take a lot more care of them. It is easy to use and get used to. It can be heavy when full so care needs to be taken. It isn't too loud when switched on but vibrations from it can be felt if in an upstairs room! This is easily portable and can be used wherever you like as it is not too big. The oils that come with it are very good ranging from relaxing to rejuvenating and last a long time as not much is needed when using them. There are 2 settings to choose from. Relatively relaxing and a bit more pumped up. Both work well but it depends on your mood and how soft you want your feet to feel. I agree with some others that it does cool water down too fast - you are not supposed to put very warm water in - luke warm surfices...
