We had problem sleeping due to occasional noises and cars driving by. After having the machine, we have been sleeping much better. It blocks most of the unwanted sound and gives us a sense of peace. Indeed that the recordings are short. However, I would recommend that don't pay too much attention to the records themselves. They serve as a background white noise. Imagine rain, storm, or at seashore instead. My favorite is the rain; waterfalls and ocean are ok. Summer night is not good for us, since we are city folks. Heart beat is scary... maybe is only meant for babies.

My wife has major medical problems and we bought this to relieve pain in her neck and shoulders. We also bought the HoMedics NMSO-100 neck and shoulder massagers and a HoMedics QRM-400H back massager and they work well in combination to relieve pain and stress. Our only complaint is that there is a small area of the upper back that neither units reaches effectively. In combination they are a great product that works as advertised. I would not hesitate to recommend them both to our friends.

I own the previous model to this and did not find it all that effective. After reading the reviews I decided to buy this, which seems identical except heat was added. The heat has made a huge difference and makes it so much more effective. I am so glad I upgraded.
Although I have not tried the higher model (quad), from reading the reviews and from experience, I think this is a better choice in order to focus the massage at one spot.
I would give it 5 stars but for two points. I have to sit on a cushion to get it all the way down to my lower back just above the SI joints. Also, one improvement would be to make the width adjustable in shiatsu mode.

Yes that's correct, this unhandy little device actually increased my foot pain. I work in a job where I stand 9 hours a day so I was looking for anything that could help.
I'll Keep looking.
The little balls that 'massage' your poor feet actually just gouge into your heel and forefoot while you constantly try and keep your feet centered on this contraption.
HoMedics usually makes little miracle machines however this isn't one of them. 1-Star; returned for refund.

A bit pricey, but well worth it. Can lie down in bed or on a sofa to use. The optional heat is a nice feature. Can also sit on the sofa or in a recliner chair and place this pillow where you need it (on your head, neck, shoulders, low back...). If the pressure is too strong (if you're lying prone on the bed or sofa), you can place a hand towel over the pillow for a lighter pressure.

This scale is exactly what I was looking for, simple, sleek and accurate. It replaced a homelier body mass scale that was mainly used for weight anyway. Very nice.

I just love this little thing, BTW the web was the only place I could get the three tier after checking five stores in my area. Anyway I wanted the three tier, not the two or one, so I was willing to pay a little extra. And right now at Amazon's current price while I'm writting this it's just shy of five dollars cheaper than what I got it for at the Homedics site, see at the time of purchase Amazon only had it through other retailers and as we know they love to charge you an arm and a leg for shipping. Anyway it's a great little fountain, doesn't take up much room and produces more than it's fair share. Relaxing and the light effect is an added bonus you shouldn't pass up.

Like a number of people mentioned, it'd be nice if it went farther up to the back of the neck, but I guess that's hard to judge for everyone's neck. Also, would be nice, like others mentioned, if you could have it stop in a particular trouble spot. Would be better for getting out a specific knot. Otherwise, seems well constructed, sturdy, and overall nice to use.

These are great, I received one as a gift and loved it. This one was a gift for my Mom, she loves it too! I leave it running 24 hours a day and have had no problems for over a year now.
