It is everything I hoped for and more! I was looking for a chair to put in my waiting area. It is perfect. My clients love it, as do I!Very comfortable. The foot roller can be a little intense so I put a washcloth down and it’s great. I had been searching all over online and trying out chairs that my family owned(more expensive) and by far this one is the best. Great price/value!

Easy to put together, and massage feels so good, wish it was easier to work the control and start over instead of turning it off every time. Control needs a back light,

I have now owned this chair for a year and it is absolutely the best chair. I use it twice a day and my entire body feels so much better. I play a lot of tennis and it really helps me prep and recover. If you are over 6’ 1”, you will find it too small for you.

I researched and researched. This is the best for the price range and I love it. I was worried at first. I purchased and scheduled delivery date thru Amazon. Delivered company called and confirmed, came as planned. It was easy to assembled. Nothing complicated and it doesn’t take too much room. I love the Yoga setting which stretches you back and legs and I also enjoy the Auto very much as well. I use it every night before bed and my back pain is getting better. Overall, I’m extremely happy with the purchase. May not be as good as the $5000 one, I wouldn’t know but for less than $2000, it’s excellent!

After doing a lot of research about many different massage chairs in the market, we decided to buy the Kahuna chair and it was the best decision that we could ever make. The chair came assembled, so we just needed to follow a few steps to complete the installation. The chair offers different massage options. It also offers manual and automatic settings. The yoga setting is really good. Our family of 4 uses it daily and we all have our different preferred settings. The manual is very helpful as it provides a quick step by step as to how to use the different remote control buttons. Overall, we are all very happy with the purchase and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great massage chair.

I got this chair for my wife for her birthday, and she loves it. I gave it 5 stars, because it works as expected, and is a real bargain (price-wise) compared to the 8800. If I could have given it a partial-star ding, I would have for the fact that the main part of the chair is one piece, which weighs about 165 +/- pounds, and is extremely unwieldy. I had to get it to the second floor of my house by myself in order to surprise my wife.

Air intensity important. I use the manual mode, the leg massage is a bit intense. Also, I put two cushions on my lower back to soften it’s strong massage in that area.
dwlima –
The chair is awesome and the customer service is excellent. The chair is so ridiculously comfortable, I fall asleep in it. The yoga stretch with heat on is the perfect mode and I am really pleased with the chair. The customer support is also top notch. They respond to emails and phone calls right away and helped me understand all the settings and more to get the best use out of the chair. Thank you to all the Amazon verified purchasers that recommended this item. You were right, and I could not be happier.

I looked for a long time for a masssge chair and finally decided on this one and I’m extremely happy with my decision. It feels like a chair that costs upwards of $5,000 and made so well. It feels amazing from head to toe. I couldn’t be more happy with my purchase. We’ll worth the $1,899.00 I paid for it. I highly recommend this chair. This is the first review I’ve ever made on a product but this massage chair does everything it says and I feel so relaxed when I’m done.

I will start by saying, I only received the product today. It arrived one week early which is awesome for me. High marks for quick shipping. It took me about 2 hours to put the chair together, as I am not mechanically inclined. All in all, not too difficult to assemble. I have run through the different options now and I really like what I have seen. I can’t wait to try each one out and see what I like best. I am a happy customer so far.

It was easy to assemble. It has great massaging pressure and had a lot more features than our previous chair. Love the zero gravity feature, and the heated massage. Good Value for the purchase price! It can fit into a small space. I’m so glad we bought this brand!
Kab –
This has been an amazing addition. It is used daily by both my husband and I. The only complaint is I am only 5’2″, I do find the back rollers go up too far and hit my skull so I have to move my head forward when they come. The yoga stretch is to die for and wish I could just keep it on stretching over and over. Totally worth every penny! We have both fallen asleep in this massage chair.

Very nice massage chair! It is very versatile… There are 5 Auto programs plus an additional Yoga setting that is very nice. The foot massage is very firm, but that’s what my wife and I like. You can disable the foot massage at any time. The heating function is awesome! I also really like the space-saving aspect! Overall, I think this chair is a great value at this price point! Also, it was very easy to assemble while watching the Youtube video along with the included instructions.
GigiTheVet –
This chair is EVERYTHING! The Kahuna massage chair owes me nothing. Easy to assemble. Took 35 minutes. Used the YouTube video for setup. Outstanding! The controls are easy to work. Others said the foot rollers were to much but I found them perfect for me as I like a lot of pressure. Fits nicely in a corner of my bedroom. Not too big, not too small. Quiet enough for what it has to do. I use it daily…THIS IS A GREAT BUY!

Stress relief. Deep muscle massage. Reversing desk-job-neck. This chair tackles them all! My husband and I processed this as a joint Xmas gift to each other. I thought he would occasionally use it and I would use it every day, but I can barely get him away from it! I am looking forward to testing pour more options, but overall a completely worthwhile investment.
Amazon Customer –
Exceeded my expectations. I read a few reviews that complained about the assembly but I found it to be very simple and with a couple tools and an ability to read some simple instructions it was together in less that an hour including the unpackaging. As soon as I plugged it in my life changed. I’d give it more stars if I could.

Very happy with the chair and use it daily. Have back issues and the chair is extremely effective in easing the pain. It did take some time to figure out how to make adjustments.Did have a small mix-up at delivery as the directions made me think a part was missing. Spoke first with Amazon and the representative was understanding and helpful. Had to wait until after the weekend to speak with Good Price who explained how to connect the tubes without the additional part mentioned in the instructions.

The chair requires some muscle to get in the door and set up, so have some help around when it arrives. It works as advertised and has been very therapeutic for my wife, we are seasoned citizens. Had a problem with one of the air bladders in an arm, it was resolved quickly by Eric at the company new part was shipped in a timely manner.

This chair is wonderful. Other reviews make note about it being a bit hard on the feet and it pushes the arms out. This is mostly true. I put a towel down for extra padding on the feet. The first week was a bit uncomfortable, but know I use it between 2-4 times a day Great to get the blood flowing first thing in the morning. Great after working on an assembly line all day. The yoga setting is also wonderful. I use one setting then the other setting back to back.

I just LOVE this chair. I use it almost every day after work, and sometimes to take a nap. I hope it last forever!!!
DB –
We are really enjoying this chair. We have had it for about 2 months. It looks just like the photo once you put it together. There are quite a few parts. The directions are not as clear as they could be, but we were able to get it together in about 30 minutes. We like all of the different massage levels. My one point to make is that the leg area squeezes quite tight. There must be a way to adjust this, but it isn’t clear.

Good massage chair
howard dudley –
This massage chair is definitely one of my best investments. My family and I love this chair and wish we had purchased it sooner. This chair does wonders for my upper and lower back, and my family love the foot and neck massage. I’m amazed at how many features this chair has, when compared to more expensive chairs.

I bought this chair based on reviews only, believing it could supply way more instant value than human touch would cost me to orchestrate over time — And I was right. I feel like I have already broken even with cost savings using this fantastic chair vs human touch. It’s quiet. It’s strong. Good value. Yoga stretch+

This is my first massage chair and WOW! Have I been missing out! I love it and it so worth it when you come home from exhausting day and you lay back, get into zero gravity and let the rollers do their job. The heat is nice and the compression from the airbags gives a different kind of relaxation. The only con I would say is that this chair does not fit people taller than 6ft. I am 6’3 about 195lbs and my height is the issue because the foot section does not extend out far enough to fit my legs in the compression areas. I just make it work for my body.

Awesome chair, easy to assemble. Updating my review. The Chair has been awesome. Just recently my left side arm air bag started leaking. I sent email to the support address on the their site. I got a response the next day and a part was sent out the following day.Not only is this chair great but the company stands behind the product and is very customer service oriented.Thanks Kahuna Chair, not only for the great massage but being on top of your customer service!!

The belt for the shiatsu motion keeps on coming undone in the zero gravity position, making it a pain to unzip the internal cover and feed the belt back onto the pulleys. If this problem was fixed I’d have no complaints at all. I have to be mindful of the roller cage as it is going up and down while I’m tilted all the way back.Still, it is the best massager I’ve bought so far and a far cry from the old ones. Decently priced too for you what you get.

I received my massage chair and the driver sat it in my garage. I unpacked it and it was very attractive. During assemble the right shoulder air bag supply hose was not there. I called the manufacture and they arranged for a local repair company to come to my hose and repair it. Now the chair works perfect. It is a great chair for the price. Would purchase again. Thanks for the prompt repair and great service.

I’ve only had the chair for 3 weeks, but so far so good. Everything works, and it gives a great massage. They must have fixed the foot massager, because mine is not too harsh like a lot of other reviews have stated. Everyone that has tried mine says it’s perfect on their feet.My only minor complaint is all on the massages are only 15 minutes. If you don’t reset/change the current massage during the last couple minutes of the massage you’re getting, you have to turn it off and reset everything before you can do another massage. It would be nice if there was an easier process for either extending the massage or starting another one. Not a big deal though.

Customizable chair. Good quality. A bunch of relatives tried it during a family reunion and it worked great. A free aunts justunder 5′ tall felt that they are too small for the feet and legs portion of the chair. I usually just use the yoga or other auto functions. Sometimes I do a spot massage.

I purchased kahuna LM6800 and it is worth it. we use it everyday, My husband is 5’1 and he fits just fine, the massage is very powerful, He likes the manual massage, and I’m 5’ and thin I like the yoga massage because I’m too short so the machine don’t reach the foot roller but if its yoga it reach my feet, the arm air massage can’t reach my hands too but it’s fine, all in all it is a great purchased.

Best chair for the money . After reading all the reviews . It is the best for the buck . 1000 more gets you a speaker, and a stand for the controller , Have it in use very day by one of the family . So far all agree it was a very good investment .ONLY Con the controller needs to be put in some type of stand . We have adapted a selfie stick for this .

I don’t usually write product reviews but I just need to give a shout out for this chair. Here is what it does: a main roller goes from the top of the neck to the buttock with 5 difference massage techniques, and there is a ‘section’ option to specific a smaller area of the spine. a foot roller that works on the bottom of the feet. air bags that squeeze the calves, forearms and shoulders. 3 positions that lean back, further back, and even further back. Two combination modes: automatic and yoga stretch. I have had it for only a month so I can’t speak to durability. So far so good.

We have now owned this for 3 months and still love it! There are certain cycles where some of the rollers are rough, but I personally like that. After I’ve done a long run I use the Yoga function followed by a massage. My husband has a physically demanding job and uses the manual settings to target specific area. We laugh often about the only downside to this chair, which is getting relaxed and falling asleep. Buying this chair was my son’s idea and I am so glad we did.

This chair is like having a full time masseuse live in your house, ready to give your muscles a quick pick me up at any time.. the only problem with the chair is that you will never want to leave it and will have to fight your friends and family for who gets to sit in it next.. I am 6’3 and chair fits me perfectly, and even though it’s not the most aesthetically pleasing chair, it will quickly become an indispensable part of your family

Chair is smaller than expected. I am not a very big man. 5’11 190lbs. The width of the chair is tight. My friend is a bigger guy 6’1 225lbs and it was tight for him. The length of the chair is not enough for me. My knees are bent up even in the position where the chair is in full extension. Disappointing because the quality is good with decent options. This would be great for someone under 5’8”.

I looked at lots of massage chairs and I liked the yoga feature and the fact that the back massage goes around your butt. It was everything I could ever imagine. The yoga feature is my favorite ever!! The controller is easy to understand and runs a few automatic programs. The foot pressure is a little too much for me so I just turn it off and it still does the ankle and calves. Was a great purchase!

I got the chair and unpacked it and found it relatively easy to assemble. It is best to go on line and find the video to help. The instruction sheet is pretty bad.. Putting the arms on it is better to make bigger holes in the cover to get the screws through. I was short one bolt but easy a hardware srore to get one. It took about one hour or so to get the chair unboxed and up and running . The chair is great. Does a good job and as good as more expensive ones I have tested.

I am extremely happy with the chair. It looks good and doesn’t take up a lot of room. Very comfortable and functions as described. They kept me informed by email and phone of the delivery. Delivery driver was very nice. It took my husband and a friend less than an hour to bring it inside and put the arms on. I was enjoying a massage within an hour! Very good value for the price. It’s quiet and has a good variety of massage options. I really enjoy the heated option. I have sensitive feet so I kept some of the foam padding to put in the foot area. It works great. I would recommend this chair to my friends.

This is my first massage chair, though I have tried many and have received massages from numerous therapists. I am impressed with the various settings that allow one to accommodate the sore spots. An interesting experience I have had in the short time I have been using is how it cures my headaches! I was not expecting that bonus! Using the manual controls I have found that I can better focus on troubled areas than my therapist does, since I can control the speed and timing of the massage.Great chair, great price! Highly recommended!

The young men that delivered my chair were very professional. Removed box on porch and brought inside and much to my surprise ask me, “Where do you want it”. I wanted it in my basement which has a narrow turn radius and I sheepishly said in the basement if you can put it there. I had planned to have sons and grandsons place it in basement, but the delivery men put it in the basement with no problem. They didn’t wait for a tip and were leaving and I offered and they refused, but I insisted. All is well that end well!!!

This massage chair is the best. I was looking for a massage chair for my dads birthday and read a few reviews online about Kahuna. I tested a few that cost double at Abt and this is hands down better. The only ones I was able to find that were equivalent or better cost 3 or 4 times more than this. Foot rollers are hard and the massage does a great job on the arms and legs. I just wish the rollers for the upper back and neck were a little harder. My father and step mom uses it all the time!

So extremely pleased with this massage chair! I have terrible neck and back pain and this chair makes me feel a lot better. I sit in it practically everyday!!!The only thing that I do not like is that after the timer is up, you have to turn off the chair and turn it back on. So watch your time by setting a timer on your phone!

After about 1.5 years the liner did become frayed And the motor that makes the mechanism go up and down got caught in it and burned out. I called and they sent me a new liner in new motor assembly. I had to put it in but the service was excellent. I have a working chair again.
A & J –
So up front I gave it 5 stars but as shipped I would only give it a 4.5. I had to to a small adjustment to make it better for me.I did a lot of research on Zero gravity chairs mainly because I didn’t want to spend a fortune but at the same time I was going to if it meant I got everything I wanted. So with this chair I was taking a risk because the cheaper price made me fear that quality. I am glad I did so far (mind you I only had this a few days so I cannot speak on longevity).So with all the research I did I will list my pro’s and cons. I will also try to answer any questions I can over the next few days as I check this.Pro’sPrice. You will NOT find a chair that has every new total package option.Options. This chair has rollers on the feet and calf. Shoulder airbags (not standard), arms, legs. It also has heat, vibrating but pad, and a twist and stretch options. THE MAIN option is that is has the new-age L-track. So just like the one in brook stone for 3000 $more, this one will massage all the way to your butt. Not just to the bottom of your back, to your butt! It also has this cool Yoga setting that will do a 30 minute massage that mixes massage with a stretch. The stretch is very noticeable, like you are bending your back over one of those gym balls.Real Zero gravity. I bring this up because you see on the picture that shes basically just recling back. I am not sure why Kahuna decided that was a good picture because the chair actually has two more zero gravity levels after that one. The final setting leans you fair back with your feet about 4-6 inches above your heart. Its legit zero gravity position.So the actual massage is above average, but not amazing. I want to be honest here because it’s a 1500 dollar chair. I would say 90% of the massage feels amazing. Sometimes the rollers just hit me wrong and it doesn’t hurt per say but I wouldn’t want it to stay there for long. I am still messing with the settings thou. I normally only feel this during the deep massage option. I believe this is only because the fabric near the rollers is a tad on the thin side. If they just added a tiny bit more padding it would make this massage perfect. The other massage options I have no issue, just sometimes the deep tissue.Structure is a pro and con. The base of this chair is a mix of plastic and steel. The plastic portion looks a little cheap but its sturdy. The steel portions will clearly support the wieght (I am 220 pounds, 6’4′ and have no issues). The leg/feet holder does adjust about 5 inches so its comfortable. I would say thou anything after 6’4” is pushing it. Everything once I got it all in place fit well and snug. I see this chair lasting awhile if it’s taken care of and not treated as a toy.Ok my CONS:Installation. While it should of been easy because there are really only a few minor steps, the screw holes did not line up. This is because at whatever factory it was made you can tell that the machine used to cut it was out of whack or something. This was only for the side walls. The shoulder pieces went in like a glove and only took me 5 minutes to install both. The arms on the other hand had two issues that can be fixed really easy. There are two steel rods you have to slide them on and on one of the arms the holes weren’t big enough. It was cut wrong and could tell me the jagged line. I had to shave a very tiny portion of the plastic down to get it to slip on. Im talking like 1mm..nothing more. The other part was the 4 screw holes. They are suppose to be lined up like two full moons, but instead I got the whole half moon thing and couldn’t fit the screw in. So I had to shave that down as well. Soon as I did it fit perfect and was very sturdy. This shouldnt happen and if you aren’t good with basic tools I would beware or have a friend help you set it up.Second CON and almost a deal breaker for me was the feet rollers. THEY HURT ALOT. Even with socks on they hurt. Its not because they are different from any other rollers on the market…they do the samething. They hurt because the fabric between your feet and the rollers is just super thin. This also was an easy fix because I just took some padded fabric and some velcro (type with an adhesive side and a velcro side) and placed it where my feet go. So now it is much softer and gives a great massage instead of feeling like rocks going into my feet.So with that said, A small 4 dollar peice of velcro and padded fabric, and a basic file and small drill bit is all I needed to make this chair beyond perfect for the price. Its comfortable now and has more options then it should have at $1500. The chair feels great and if you are starting to get minor aches and pains from work…this will make you feel good:) I’m a police officer so wearing a vest all the time starts to wear on ya. This chair is already helping a ton.I would buy it again and recommend it to all my friends.Hope this helps.
Joshua M Edwards –
I researched a bunch of massage chairs before purchasing this one and I’ve got to say that for the money it’s well worth it. I’ve only had the product for a little while, but it’s amazing. My only regret is not purchasing it sooner. The instructional video for assembly is excellent and easy to understand. It took me about 10 minutes to assemble. The video on how to use the remote is also very helpful. I love the numerous settings and targeted spot massages. My only con would be that I wish the leg length was a little longer (I’m 6 foot). It does extend but I haven’t figured out yet how to keep it extended. Other than that it’s excellent.

We have had our Kahuna chair for about 7 months, and use it several times daily. It is a great chair, and has been completely trouble free until recently, when an inside liner frayed and became caught in the working mechanism. I called the support number include with the chair, and after talking to the gentleman a bit, determined the problem. He apologized for the problem, and quickly offered to send someone to repair it at no charge. I explained that I felt qualified to do the repair myself if I had the part, which he agreed to ship that same day. The part was received in a few days, and the repair was easily replaced by me. The new part was much of an upgrade from the original, which he had already said was the case, and should last without this problem again. After dealing with this person on the phone, and the resultant customer service, I have no doubt that they have pride in their product. He even called me yesterday to be assured that the chair was working properly, and that I was happy. I haven’t seen customer service like that in a long time. If we ever wear this one out, we will definitely buy another Kahuna!

We have really loved this chair. We are still discovering new settings and combinations of settings that have enhanced our use of it. I use it every day. My 6’ son and 6’2” son feel it is a bit short, like other reviews stated, but the are still able to enjoy it. This chair is an exceptional value and I would recommend it to everyone! Online videos were critical for the assembly as a couple of the air hoses had incorrect parts applied. Luckily the video helped me figure it out and it was useable within an hour or so.I have only had one bad headache since getting this chair 5 months ago and needed no chiropractor visits or massages. Before getting it I had frequent headaches and spent a ton of $ on physical therapy, chiro, and massage. I figure it will pay for itself in about a year.

I would have given this chair a 5 star review but during a massage it makes a annoying clicking noise that the seller Good Price World tells me is normal which I’m skeptical about. But the chair does everything I expected it to do which is relief for my nagging back pains.

After about 1.5 years the liner did become frayed And the motor that makes the mechanism go up and down got caught in it and burned out. I called and they sent me a new liner in new motor assembly. I had to put it in but the service was excellent. I have a working chair again.

Excellent massage chair! It’s a bit smaller than I’d hoped – I’m 6’3″ and it doesn’t quite stretch out enough for my legs to fully extend. There are only 3 preset massages, all of which are pretty decent, but a little more variety would have been nice. You’d think by this point there’d be downloadable new massages, but then again I suppose the security implications are pretty harsh when you’ve got a robot that could potentially cause major physical harm with making a device do that. The L-track is pretty crazy, it massages all the way down your lower back and under your butt. Makes quite a bit of noise when it’s moving you around initially, as the plastic clicks and clacks together as it sort of stretches and expands. Oh, and the foot rollers hurt like the dickens without putting a little extra padding, so make sure you put a rag or micro fiber towel down there.

It does what it’s supposed to do – giving a pretty good massage. It still won’t match up to the acuity of a human touch but still relieves pain points on shoulders and neck, especially the tailbone only L track can cover. Even compared to Kahuna’s own higher-end line-up, this still is the best bang for the buck. My only disappointment was the delivery. I would expect at least two men to be delivering a 100-pound massage chair; only one man came. I ended up badly bruising my hand prevent the heavy box from falling over him. But overall, it’s been a little less than a month and the product is pretty good so far.

My wife has a high stress job and has back and neck pain and just general stress tight muscles. She is in great physical shape but as we age things sometimes hurt. Got this as a present for her and she loves it! (ok I do too)Lots of different settings to get the type of massage you want. I am partial to the Yoga setting which is a relaxing massage/stretch.One tip. I put some heavy socks on the foot pads. The foot massage can be rather intense. That cushions it a bit and definitely helps.I highly recommend it!

Let me tell you – I regretted every second of not purchasing the installation service. The thing was expectedly heavy, but also awkward and slippery to carry upstairs and I nearly dropped it because there just isn’t a good place to hold it. Once I got it to its final resting place, I started to assemble, which meant I noticed that two of the air tubes were missing the angled L connectors that they were supposed to come with, requiring me to get inventive. In addition, one of the air tubes was completely missing from the headrest area, which I had to fish through the bottom of the chair.Once I got it going though, I have been made a FIRM believer. And I do mean FIRM – this thing will squeeze your body parts so intensely you almost start to panic the first time because you’re questioning whether or not its malfunctioning and may break parts of your body. I’m dead serious. However, trust the machine – this is not your run-of-the-mill mall chair massager, this thing *really* gets down into your body and administers what you need. PROTIPS: The zero gravity 3 setting and the YOGA programs are life-altering.

Wonderful deal, but the shipping process is a dealbreaker.The chair is awesome, really does the trick. It’s easy to assemble, works well, fits me perfectly. Noticeable results and improvements in my posture after every use. Love the foot, the calf, shoulder airbags, and the awesome roller. The programs are clever and really do mimic a hands-on massage.That being said I would never order this through Amazon because they don’t use their delivery service, they use a 3rd party delivery service. Mine was AIT which in no way shape or form were able to deliver this chair properly. Driver show up in a ratty old truck and first thing is he can’t make it up the driveway (total nonsense as no delivery driver, fire truck, 36 ton forestry truck) ever had that problem. First thing he says is it’s too big for him to deliver, and he was right. The 230 lb. box was twice as big as him and even a big man would not be able to handle it himself, so let’s send it back was his immediate solution. I was irritated, but in retrospect I can’t blame him, as that was an injury just waiting to happen. So glad I did not go the white glove route as that would never have happened. Their main goal is to make their delivery problems the customer’s delivery problem, and I would not have trusted them to put this nice chair together properly. If you do order, have a truck and people ready to help you, or you may not get your chair. Also, Amazon and AIT don’t communicate and Amazon had me at home 2 days waiting on a delivery that could not happen as AIT did not have the package. AIT tracking site is primitive basic and does not give details or location of your item. Their delivery times as well were inaccurate. Will take 2-3 weeks for delivery. Driver did let me unbox the item and helped me load the chair base, 170 lbs or so, into my Santa fe. So yeah..Awesome product, but a dealbreaker delivery service.

Awesome massage from hips up to the head, Or just the exact part or spot that needs a massage. It has saved my husband and I from going to chiropractor weekly. It has several choices with heat being one of them. The chair is very comfortable. I recommend this massage chair. The customer service with the warranty company is the best! Joon contacted me until the issue was resolved. I always felt confident with his service. We will never be without a massage chair!

I have used this chair now for several months, and I love it. The only issue I have is the rollers on the feet hurt. Needs more padding in the bottom where feet go. The difference massage selections are wonderful. I have fibromyalgia, and the soreness/pain from it, often makes it so I don’t sleep well, so when I get that bad, I get up and get in this chair, and let it massage me to sleep.

Emrys E. Maier –
This massage chair performs extremely well, is manufactured with quality materials, and has had no problems since we bought it (2 months ago). The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it’s just too small for me. Since it was a gift for my wife (she’s under 5′), it’s no problem. But I wanted to just mention for others that this chair is a bit too small for a 6′ man. Even with the extending foot part, I have found that I really have to squeeze in to use it. Fortunately I can just hang my legs over the top of the leg parts and use the back massage part without any problems.

I run a fairly stressful business so I needed something to relieve my stress on a daily basis at the end of my day. I bought this chair based on how many people said it was “to intense”. That’s exactly what I was looking for. I’m a bigger guy so I love having my knots dug into extremely hard. But, let me tell you, it can really squeeze and dig into all the right areas if you want it to. It has intensity levels you can adjust. I love it full INTENSITY! It takes some practice with the remote to find the settings you enjoy the most. Like I said I use this EVERYDAY. The chair is quality and works well. I have fallen asleep multiple times while this thing is working me over. It’s been a great investment into my health and well being.

We absolutely love this chair. I done a lot of research, and decided that this was the best purchase for our budget. It wasn’t that hard for my husband to put together and it only took him apx 30 mins. We did open it outside and carry in the pieces to our room for set up. The main part of the base is fairly heavy, but if you tip it up to an almost vertical position, it rolled right through the house like it was nothing.I’m 5’4″ with very long legs, a short body, and I’m a little on the fluffy side. I have fibromyalgia, and RA. I was a little nervous to use it since there are so many “pressure points” that cause tremendous pain off an on all day long. It took a little time to get used to the pressure, as there were certain areas where it really hurt. I knew this would be the case though, as just receiving a massage at a spa hurts. I used small pieces of foam we had laying around the house to “cushion” those areas (low back, feet) for the first couple of weeks. Like many reviews, I’d have to agree that the foot massage was a little harsh, but, that was only for the first few uses. Now, since using it regularly my trouble spots are used to it. I use it with bare feet and no extra padding at all and find myself wishing I could adjust it to massage a little harder. I even throw the head/back pillow over the back of the chair so I get the full force of the massage. How amazing is that! Having long legs, I love that the foot section adjusts with a little push of my feet. I have to extend it to it’s fullest. I use it every night before I go to bed and am feeling much better over all. It’s not a cure all, but it is definitely helping in how I feel as a whole. My hubs is 6′ and with a stocky build. He has a bad ankle so the air pressure even on the lightest setting is a little too much for him, so he will use it minus the air. He likes it, but not as much as I do.I like that there is a warning beep before prior to shutting off. It gives you the opportunity to hit the manual button, then the auto button and it resets the timer allowing me to continue receiving a massage. You do need to put it back to your desired setting, but at least it doesn’t shut off making you start completely over. A definite plus. I usually do a series of 4-5 different modes in 1 sitting, so get an hour to hour and 15 minute massage.The only problem I have with it is, I’m not sure the scanner always works but my husband found a way to somewhat fix this. Sometimes it will go to the top of my head, above my ears, and that’s not comfortable when it’s doing the kneading or tapping features. He found that when the scanning stops, if you push manual, then auto right away, it will redo the scan. Sometimes I have to do this more than once, but in doing so, it will actually end up stopping at the base of my head, which I prefer. Then I can set it to my preferred mode. The only other option I’d love to see in this chair would be if you could actually turn off the compressor during one of the pre-programmed modes, since due to my health issues I can get a spasm in my feet or legs, and being able to turn the air off them would be great. I am aware that I could just use the manual settings, but you don’t get the same movements as in a pre-programmed modes.UPDATE ON THE SCANNER; If you sit forward while it starts to go down, and then sit back once it’s near your hip area, it will stop at your neck every time. No need to keep trying to push the buttons. 😉 Still loving this chair and sleeping like a baby.If you are considering this chair, I would say get it, you definitely won’t be disappointed.

I ordered the LM-6800 chair but the company was unable to have it delivered as it was stuck in port. They upgraded my order to the LM-7000 chair and it is AMAZING! Nothing like having a massage whenever you feel like it and love that you can pick the area needing the most attention. Although, there was a problem with the 1st chair…I called the company and they sent a new chair within a week with an additional year of warrantee for the hassle! So far I’ve been as amazed with the customer service as the chair, a rare statement these days 🙂
JM –
I bought this for my husband’s 40th birthday. We both love the option for compression. It can feel a bit tight in the moment but when it releases it really does feel good. The massage feature is pretty decent but we both feel like it doesn’t reach as high up on the top of the shoulders and neck region. Overall a good price for the product.

Great chair, not too hard but enough to hit the spots. Lots of different features and levels.

After about 1.5 years the liner did become frayed And the motor that makes the mechanism go up and down got caught in it and burned out. I called and they sent me a new liner in new motor assembly. I had to put it in but the service was excellent. I have a working chair again.

the chair was delivered on time. easy two person job to assemble, very comfortable and easy to use, lots of options, great buy
Anonymous –
The chair performs as stated. The delivery was not as stated by the shipper. She said the chair would be placed where I wanted it. Apparently the box was too large to fit through the standard door so they left it in the garage and left my son to unpack. That was fine. However, they also wanted to leave the wood supports for us to deal with. He insisted they haul that off. I tried to call the shipping number, got no answer and the mail box was full. My son was able to get everything in to the house and assembled with no problem. The chair itself is all I could ask for. I like the yoga stretch with heat.
Anya Spielberg –
This is a replacement for the earlier one star review I posted. I am now happy because the seller got me a new chair that works perfect. I only gave 4 stars because the chair comes with really bad directions and the manufacturing is poor with regard to installing the 4 pieces you have to attach when you receive the chair.

Chair is great. I looked for a while before I found one that seamed the most reliable and this was it. It is my first massage chair and now idk how I could live without one. It is my go to seat in the living room and if I’m busy and getting up and sitting down for just a few minutes I just put it on back rollers so I can get up and down without running through a program. But if I have Time I love the Yoga program.

Our family has been using this product for several months now. We use it almost daily and think it offers an excellent value for the money. As other reviewers already noted, we thought the foot rollers were a little too hard. But we lined them with some foam and that solved the problem. The assembly was not overly challenging. It took my husband about one hour to put together.

I researched massage chair reviews for over two months before purchasing the Realaxonchair because it was rated high and 200.00 cheaper than the Kahuna LM6800. The chair was very narrow and doesn’t have the yoga feature like this chair so we returned it and ordered this Kahuna chair and wow what a difference. This chair is pretty amazing and packed with plenty of features. The foot roller are the only issue we have because of the fact they hurt my feet. This massage chair is hands down best best chair you can buy under 2,500 point blank period! 4.5 out of 5 and a must have.

I am 6’6 and even though I may be a little long for it, it still works great for me. We searched for a long time for a chair and then one does everything we need it to. We are in love with this chair. When I bought it I had several questions. The seller was on top of all my questions and even followed up to make sure everything was great once I got it.
Annette Bernard –
We have had this massage chair for about 6 months now and have really enjoyed using this Kahuna massage chair. It is very relaxing and works the tension and sore muscles well. We have found the remote control to be quite easy to understand. There are several options to choose from. The options on the left hand side are more individual settings, such as roll where it will roll up and down your spine, a shiatsu, a shiatsu and roll and a tapping mode. You can also select on the left side an option to focus in one area of your back, such as the upper, the middle or the lower back that includes the buttocks. You can also choose an option on the left if you want the massage rollers to stay in one section or spot on your back for a longer period of time. The options on the right have already been pre program so all you need to do is sit back and the massage chair will complete a massage in the certain orders of which it was pre-programmed. You have several pre programs, of which will give you different focus areas on your back with different settings such as kneading rolling shiatsu and tapping, along with the air compression on your lower legs, feet, arms and shoulder areas. There is also a yoga setting that stretches and has the chair legs and back area go in different directions as it stretches and massages your back. The yoga pre-programmed option is very relaxing. The chair is comfortable to sit in and when you turned it on it begins to recline back just a little. Then there is an option for you to have it continue to recline further back. There is also a heat button that is nice to use during the winter months. In my experience each massage cycle is programmed to last only 15 minutes. Unfortunately I have not found a way to increase the time on any one individual cycle. However, we have found that when you hear the beeping sound towards the end of the 15 minute cycle, it is indicating that the massage chair will end it’s massage, but if you select one of the options on the right hand side, (the pre-programmed ones), you can bypass it turning off the beeping sound and continue with one of the pre programs for another 15 minutes. I just wish there was a way to increase the time to 30 minutes, instead of having to change up the massage when the beeping sounds come on. Many reviews noted that the foot rollers hurt their feet. For us, we found the foot rollers and air compression really helps relieve the sore and tired muscles and renews circulation in the feet. The foot rollers are one of the best features. Another great feature is the L- track design that reaches past your upper thighs. The chair delivery arrived at the specified date and time frame of which I was able to choose when I ordered. This was very helpful and arrived right on time and the delivery person even called 20 minutes prior to let us know he was on his way. The installation instructions online and in the booklet were helpful and the customer service number is awesome, you actually talk to a live person that will answer any questions you have and even helped us with some of the assembly questions. Overall this is a very solid massage chair at a great affordable price.

I researched home massage chairs endlessly and purchased this one a couple of months ago. We’re very pleased with the purchase and use it on a daily basis. My husband and I were able to figure out how to assemble it ourselves. He’s blind and assembly isn’t in my wheelhouse, so it isn’t terribly hard.We had an issue with the shoulder bags not inflating but I came on here and got lots of help and miraculously, they just started working on their own.
Benjamin Kappel –
Love this thing. 6’3” 210 lbs. It fits decent, love the manual mode to work out knots. Not a fan of the shoulder air bags because it can push me away from the chair. My wife reads for hours in it while it’s not even on, just reclined.

I had some questions to a seller before placing an order and the seller promptly gave responses. We received the big box delivered to inside where we planned to assemble and place it. My husband assembled it with few screws to attach on four parts of the chair. Since he viewed how to assemble on the YouTube while we planned to buy a massage chair, it didn’t take long for us to set it up and start using it. Now the whole family is excited to use it everyday.
Elizabet N. –
After doing a lot of research about many different massage chairs in the market, we decided to buy the Kahuna chair and it was the best decision that we could ever make. The chair came assembled, so we just needed to follow a few steps to complete the installation. The chair offers different massage options. It also offers manual and automatic settings. The yoga setting is really good. Our family of 4 uses it daily and we all have our different preferred settings. The manual is very helpful as it provides a quick step by step as to how to use the different remote control buttons. Overall, we are all very happy with the purchase and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great massage chair.

Best thing I have EVER done for myself. Worth every penny. I’ve had 2 back strains and it takes care it the problem in very few sittings. I just love it.
Brian Hurley –
I’ve had 2-massage chairs prior to this purchase ranging 1.5-2x the price of this chair.This chair is superior in quality, craftsmanship and comfort to the other two chairs.With high usage, I’ve seen the parts that typically fail and have rebuilt each chair with warranty parts. Upon arrival I inspected the usual suspects and this chair has superior components. my chairs usually need to be replaced every 3-4 years so it makes sense to buy at mid range price point. I’m very happy to have this chair at the low end price point with a very good warranty.

You will not find a massage chair anywhere at this price which is built this well and offers such a variety of great features. Arrived on time, was very well packaged for shipping, was very easy to assemble (only side panels needed to be installed), and the chair works wonderfully.
Kurt –
I always though a massage chair is to make one feel better after 30 or so minutes of sitting in this thing. Feels more like a torture machine to me. Lucky, it was purchased for my wife who loves this thing.It’s a heavy monster, around 200+ pounds. I put this thing together in about an hour. Took me twice as long to drag it from the garage to the inside of the house. Better not try this alone.Unfortunately, the black plastic shield that covers the lower back was completely torn apart inside the shipping container. There was no obvious damage to the monster-size shipping box and it is very well protected by styrofoam. The damage was obviously done when the chair was packed at the factory. That’s the reason I gave this machine only 3 stars. Should the seller send me a replacement part I would reconsider my rating. Oh geeh…. I need a massage now….
Daniel Wagenheim –
Quality: ExcellentModes: Excellent: Tons to choose From: Full Body Heating (Heating on the Cavs can get too hot because of the pressure/heat combo), massages all the way from the base of the head to the lower butt. Also, the Cavs (Can be a bit rough), and Feet (Amazing!!)Size: Excellent: Compact for the House. I am 6’3″ so it is a little too small for me, but it still does the job comfortablyAssembly: Excellent: Not hard at all.Overall: For the money, there is not other massage chair that will give you the same amount of options. There is no better chair for the money, and I’ve done the research. A Must Buy for People Looking for a Good Quality and Reliable Chair. I know because I use mine once a day… as well as friends and family.

HOW I MADE A 1-STAR CHAIR INTO A 5-STAR CHAIRThe purpose of this review is to help senior citizens understand what they are getting into when the want to buy any Massage Chair.I purchased a Zero Gravity Full-Body Kahuna Message Chair Recliner LM6800 on November 3, 2019 and have gone from “Why in the world did I buy this monster to Boy am I glad I have this chair.A few words to set the context. I have gone from a young man who played flag football and unloaded freight cars loaded with 100lb bags to earn my way through college to a weak, wimpy, out of shape CPA who sits most of the time. I have most of the old age medical issues, diabetes, heart, and lung problems. I no longer can lift heavy things and get exhausted quickly.I never have paid a person to assemble anything I purchased in my life until now. So here we go.WARNINGS:• Do not attempt to put this thing together by yourself it just plain weights too much. Purchase the “Professional Assembly from Amazon (separate item you have to click on to purchase). Do this at the time you purchase the chair because then you can get an appointment established. If you wait until the chair is delivered to make an appointment you will be a week or more with this monster in the middle of your room.• Make a space with 2’ to 3’ all the way around the chair where the delivery people can put it when it is delivered. It arrives the size of a small casket. THE DELIVERY PEOPLE WILL JUST PUT IT WHERE YOU TELL THEM TO BUT WILL DO NOTHING ELSE.• When my assembly company called to set up an appointment, I asked about moving the chair and they said any move would cost at least an additional $145 or more. Make sure where you have the shipping company put it you can assemble it right there.• If you purchase this chair, make sure to purchase “SuperSliders” from Amazon. They will tell you the chair comes with rollers on the back of the chair to help you move it. What they don’t tell you that you must have a crane to lift the chair up and it does not move in carpet. My two gorillas assembling the chair thought I was crazy until they tried to move it a few feet. They stopped, but the four large SuperSliders under the frame of the chair and easily moved it into place. If you fail to do this, I hope you have a tribe of older grandchildren living with you to move your chair.This is how I made this chair work for an out of shape wimp. Hopeful it will keep you from have a sore body for weeks.• I tried the four AUTO settings and each on inflected a slightly different set of pain. The third AUTO setting seems to be the least painful.• The chair is incredibly sturdy, so don’t think you can move your body to escape the pain it can inflict on your out of shape body.• I had a sheet of 1.5” to 2” heavy foam laying around. I notice if you flip the large back and seat cushion over that there is a slot the length of the back and about 3” to 6” wide. I cut a piece of foam to fit in this slot, took my “picker upper” tool, grabbed the end and slide it into this slot.• This made it livable but still hard on my out of shape body. I also had a large seat cushion that I had used in my truck. I took this and put it so my back would be next to the cushion. Then I had a memory foam seat cushion that I put to sit on and eureka it turned in an comfortable seat and back massage chair.• The foot rollers will kill your feet. I again took a piece of the foam and put it in the slot where your feet go and then added on old pair of shoe inserts on top of this and that solved the rollers on the feet problem.What I Have Not Been Able to Solve:• Most of the 1-Star complaints has to do with the Air Massage on the legs. The closest I can describe this feature is to pay to have a truck roll over your leg. Having an overzealous nurse take you blood pressure buy pumping it until she runs off the scale, pales in comparison to the pressure this chair puts on your calf I have looked for a way to clamp of the pressure line to limit the pressure to no avail. There is an Intensity Level which is like having a golf cart vs. a truck run over you. I use the lowest intensity, but it does not help much.• I purchased the chair to help keep my feet attached to my leg as I get older, so I have learned to just grin and bear it. I know I can’t increase the circulation in my leg without this feature. If you don’t face this problem just don’t put your feet into the slot and put them on the outside of the chair. This is what my wife does• I tried the Special Yoga setting for about three seconds and realized I was volunteering to enter a mid-evil torture chamber where they stretch you on the rack. No thanks, maybe someday.General Observations:• It really is a wonderful made chair but the control of the pressure stinks.• I found when I could sit in the chair in the reclined position when it was off, and it was comfortable I had the correct amount of padding.• All the item I mentioned above I had in my “junk”, so it did not cost me any additional money, just sore back while trying to figure it out.Don’t pass on this chair. Don’t let me scare you it is a great bargain for the price and it is solid. HAPPY MASSAGINGUPDATE ON 12-23-2019 From the wimpy CPA.I can not say I have removed all the padding except the padding on my spine and I can do all 4 “AUTO” settings. I have learned to endure the pressure bags and my body is conditioned to the chair. I am glad I did not give up on it and sent in back.
Jim Bal –
I have been using the chair for three weeks now. Pretty incredible massage power. Yoga option with the stretch of the hips is very effective. Manual option provides shiatsu massage from neck to butt and can work out any kinks. Pretty great value. I tried a Brookstone chair the week before I bought this. Very little difference in quality but mega difference in price ! Took me about an hour to assemble but very well packaged.

My wife has a high stress job and has back and neck pain and just general stress tight muscles. She is in great physical shape but as we age things sometimes hurt. Got this as a present for her and she loves it! (ok I do too)Lots of different settings to get the type of massage you want. I am partial to the Yoga setting which is a relaxing massage/stretch.One tip. I put some heavy socks on the foot pads. The foot massage can be rather intense. That cushions it a bit and definitely helps.I highly recommend it!
Tim Hallberg –
I am very happy with this chair. It is pretty much what was advertised and agrees with the reviews on Amazon. Delivery was on time to my garage and I moved it inside by myself. Assembly was a bit tricky on getting the sides in correctly, and I had to call because an air tube had displaced in shipment. Customer service handled this with a simple phone call. This chair does all the more expensive chairs do. The back massage is good and as firm as you need it. The Yoga feature actually stretches your spine. So far very satisfied with this purchase.

Wonderful deal, but the shipping process is a dealbreaker.The chair is awesome, really does the trick. It’s easy to assemble, works well, fits me perfectly. Noticeable results and improvements in my posture after every use. Love the foot, the calf, shoulder airbags, and the awesome roller. The programs are clever and really do mimic a hands-on massage.That being said I would never order this through Amazon because they don’t use their delivery service, they use a 3rd party delivery service. Mine was AIT which in no way shape or form were able to deliver this chair properly. Driver show up in a ratty old truck and first thing is he can’t make it up the driveway (total nonsense as no delivery driver, fire truck, 36 ton forestry truck) ever had that problem. First thing he says is it’s too big for him to deliver, and he was right. The 230 lb. box was twice as big as him and even a big man would not be able to handle it himself, so let’s send it back was his immediate solution. I was irritated, but in retrospect I can’t blame him, as that was an injury just waiting to happen. So glad I did not go the white glove route as that would never have happened. Their main goal is to make their delivery problems the customer’s delivery problem, and I would not have trusted them to put this nice chair together properly. If you do order, have a truck and people ready to help you, or you may not get your chair. Also, Amazon and AIT don’t communicate and Amazon had me at home 2 days waiting on a delivery that could not happen as AIT did not have the package. AIT tracking site is primitive basic and does not give details or location of your item. Their delivery times as well were inaccurate. Will take 2-3 weeks for delivery. Driver did let me unbox the item and helped me load the chair base, 170 lbs or so, into my Santa fe. So yeah..Awesome product, but a dealbreaker delivery service.

So….I wanted to write my review now that I’ve had my massage chair for almost 4 weeks now. I based my purchase on other reviews, so I wanted to make sure I gave my input also!I am very happy with my purchase of the Kahuna LM6800. It’s a great massage chair for the price and all the features it comes with. So far anyone who has come to my house and tried it out loves it also. What’s not to love about a massage, and a good one at that! There are times I don’t always feel the massage is strong enough for me, but it takes a very deep one for me, but I just remove the padding and use something with less padding over the roller to get a stronger effect. I do wish it came with different thicknesses for padding as an option, we all have different needs and some of us require a deeper massage. The yoga stretch program is great, you can really feel the stretch but its not overpowering. I sat in an 8,000.00 massage chair that stretches before I purchased this one and I hurt for 4 days after because the stretch was too intense. I have set in chairs at Brookstone stores and other places and this chair does everything that theirs do for a much cheaper price tag!As far as the foot massager goes, its like other reviewers have stated, its pretty strong, but you do get more used to it with time. But the free, that’s right I said FREE Kahuna Pau foot massager I got with it as a free promtotional item with purchase of the chair from good price world is wonderful, and a much better foot massager and its valued at 499.99!Also as others have mentioned the remote needs some improvements. But once you get it figured out its quite easy, and I called good price world and asked questions, and they were great to answer any questions I had. The chair has 5 auto programs, plus the Yoga feature. For the other 5 programs you have to push auto and a number shows up, but to get to program 5 you have to push it fives times, and the 1 and 4 button lights up, you have no way of knowing this unless you call and ask, which I did. So I made a cheat sheet listing what auto program 1 through 5 is. I also had a problem with being charged for the foot massager at first. I called amazon which was no help at all, they couldn’t even see the promotional item when they pulled up the item on their own website. You need to work on promotional items offered Amazon. So I called good priced world who was very nice and told me once I received the massage chair to let them know and they would credit it back, and they did, and very quickly! They did ship separately with Good Price world shipping the foot massage, which I got within one week, but on the other hand I only give Amazon 1 star for taking 2 weeks and a day to get the massage chair to me. It shipped within a week, but the company they used to get it to me received it on a Monday and I didn’t get it until the following Monday. It set in a warehouse 1 hour away from me, and missed the first Monday truck by a few hours, and they only delivered in my area on Mondays, so it basically took a week longer than it should have.My other complaint as others have mentioned is that the programs only last 15 minutes even though it appears you can go to 30 on the remote. You can extend it by pushing manual-auto-manual before the 15 minutes are up to get it to go another 15 minutes, and your are relaxed and don’t realized the time is almost up, then you have to start over again , and the put the chair all the way back up and start again. Although I knew this was the case when I purchased it, because I read most of the 300 and some reviews. It was kind of a scary purchase considering the 1899.99 price tag. But the other reviews made me feel more confident and I would do it all over again.Now as far as if the chair will hold up without many problems I can’t say that as of yet since I haven’t had it long enough. I sure hope it does. But I do know that Good Price world will bend over backwards to help if the time comes. I Iam 5’1 and the chair fits me well. I even called Good Price World to ask what chair would fit me best for my height, as I was considering the Kahuna 7300, and they told me the LM6800 would fit my size better, and I really appreciated their honesty since the 7300 had a much higher price tag of 2599.00. When I’m reclined all the way back I cant really feel the foot rollers because I’m too short and my feet barely touches them, but that’s another reason why I’m glad I got the free foot massager with it, so I don’t miss getting a good foot massage since I have the extra one!So here are the PRO’S: Great massage chair with lots of options and features for the price. Nice looking chair.CONS: remote needs work. The air massage on the arms I can barely feel on the lowest intensity, and if you are in manual mode you can adjust the intensity, but then its too much for my calves. It would be nice if you could control the air bag intensity for the legs and arms separately. I wish there was more than one chair cushion included that was thinner for times you need a harder massage. Although no one else who has tried it out has complained about it not being a deep enough massage, so the average person would not notice. The remote should have a name listed for the first 5 auto programs instead of just numbers.So all in all, it has some things that could be easier like the remote or features, but am I happy with my purchase….absolutely YES!

There are a few “negatives” about this chair, but nothing you wouldn’t know upfront by reading the description and a few reviews. Let’s start with a refresher on what those are.The Negatives1. It is heavy. It is a massaging chair, so it is going to be heavy. It does have wheels on the back to allow you to roll it “easily.” Easily it a relative term here, but you can move it around by tipping it back. The only problem I had on this front is that until you have it completely assembled, plugged in and turned on at least once, those wheels are useless because you can’t tip it back onto the wheels while in the shipped position.2. Assembly required. It wasn’t really all that bad just following the instructions. I saw a few complaints in the reviews, so went into it knowing it wasn’t a two second assembly project, but there were no complications requiring a hit on the rating in my opinion. I did skim the online video after I assembled it because I thought I must have missed something, but nope the manual was clear enough for me.3. No cup holder. I knew it didn’t have one, but an add-on from the manufacturer would be nice.4. Lack of Glut support. This one isn’t mine, but a complaint from my partner. Just sitting in the chair, without the massager on, she doesn’t feel like the seat provides any support to her butt. In all fairness I get what she is saying, the massager thingy that moves from your head to your butt needs a groove to run along so there is a few inch “gap” under the center of your buttocks. My hips seem to be supported without a problem even with that gap and as this is my review, no deduction. Your mileage may vary.5. Controller Unlit. If I was going to hit the chair for anything it would be this one and if I could give a 1/2 star deduction I definitely would. The control screen is illuminated but the buttons are not, which make it a little difficult to use in a darkened room. That said, much like the TV remotes of old, you eventually just know where the buttons you use are and this becomes a non-issue. Hence only a 1/2 point deduction.6. Rough on the Feet. It takes a little getting used to the pressure from the rollers hitting the bottom of your feet. The manufacturer seems to recognize this and included pads to place in the feet wells. On the yoga massage I turn off the foot rollers. On the automatic massage I leave them on.The PositivesEverything else. It is a wonderful chair. I’ve watched many friends just fall asleep when trying out the default 15 minute automatic massage. It really helps me relax at night or after a stressful day and was a solid purchase in my opinion.

After about 1.5 years the liner did become frayed And the motor that makes the mechanism go up and down got caught in it and burned out. I called and they sent me a new liner in new motor assembly. I had to put it in but the service was excellent. I have a working chair again.
Noah Ray –
The chair is amazing. If you didnt have to put it together… its 10 stars. But there was a loose screw in one of the side panels. Had to shake it out. Gave up but while installing it finally fell out. Of course by then i thought it was a broken part. Then they say to connect the air tubes. But the problem is they have two connectors already in place so you have to remove one. And finally, they don’t provide an allen wrench to tighten the screws.

I would like to thank all those who wrote reviews on this massage chair. The reviews helped in my decision to make this purchase. I bought this thru Amazon Prime and was delivered on time as promised. My husband took less than an hour to assemble and I was on the chair right after. There were a couple of steps missing in the assembly instruction manual but it was easy to figure out. Like everybody’s comment the foot massage part is kinda hard but with some padding, it helps and feels good. I wouldn’t ask to have this adjusted so it’s there when you need that hard massage on the leg. This is really good if you have RLS (restless leg syndrome). I love everything about this chair especially the Yoga mode, which stretches your body. Of course my cats love to sleep in it so I put a cover over it!

Ordered this chair for my pregnant wife for Christmas and she could not have been happier with it! The brown color fits in with the living room and the chair looks expensive and well made. We were surprised by how well the air bags work, they apply a LOT of pressure to your arms, legs and shoulders. I always keep it at low intensity for that reason but glad it has that ability. The rollers are great and the pre-programmed modes are good. Only thing I would like to see , is a place where we can order extra padding for the legs and feet. Yes, it already comes with one set of extra foam for the feet but would like another for the calves.

I researched around for the best chairs at around $2000 and looked at all the reviews. Finally settling on this chair based primarily on all the Amazon reviews. The positive reviews on this chair was right on. The stretch features programmed into this chair are amazing. The reviews about the chair being hard on the body are true but that is an advantage in my book. My body feels amazing as I like deep tissue massages. After all, you don’t want to spend all this money and feel like a feather hit your back. The L frame is amazing and really helps my sciatica. The remote is not very user friendly but simple enough to get used to. I am 5’6″ and the chair is a bit small for me but there is a sensor feature that works well before each session. It was rather simple to put together but I did watch the YouTube video on it which was very helpful. The chair weighs a lot but has two wheels to roll it into position. The chair arrived with the bottom plastic under the footrest cracked. I called the company number and the customer service was exceptional. I called on a Friday and they returned the call the following Monday and shipped out a new part to me on Tuesday. I was very impressed. I highly recommend this chair. I hope it lasts the test of time as it gets used two to three sessions a day.

TL;DR: Fantastic chair, Only downside is the installation.Just got the chair 30 minutes ago, and this is my first massage chair, so take this with a grain of salt. This chair feels fantastic, and you really can’t beat the price. While searching for a chair I went to a few stores that carried them and this is much better than $2-3k chairs I tried out, and it definitely rivals the $7-8k chairs. Needless to say I was very happy after the first massage and here is my experience.The package arrived, and was a bit banged up, but there was no damage to the chair. Installation should have taken less than 10 minutes, however the instructions were very brief, and you kind of have to figure things out on your own. Which isn’t too bad, except I either did not receive two hoses or I received two additional connectors. Roughly 20 minutes after signing for the package I had the chair setup, plugged in, and ready to go. I fired up the chair, closed my eyes, and began to relax as the machine did its thing. Then the air bags started going and I could swear Darth Vader was giving me a massage. The noise isn’t too loud and if you have the TV on or some music playing I’m sure it will drown it out. However if it’s quiet you can hear the chair working. I noticed that I was a bit too big for the chair (6’2″, 250lbs), as the airbags for the arms kept trying to push my arms out of the armrest. The other indicator, was that I had to curl my hands a bit (think of resting your hands on the home row of the keyboard) as my fingers were an inch or two too long for the enclosed armrest. That being said, I definitely enjoyed the massage and would totally get this chair again. After it was all over, I really wanted to go again, but I know my wife was eager to try it out as well, so she took the next turn and there were no complaints from her. Both of us would definitely recommend this chair to anyone without hesitation.Pros:-Incredible bang for the buck. Great amount of features, Solid construction-L-Track rocks – most of the chairs in the price range stopped at the lower back, this one goes all the way to your glutes.-Space saving design – This chair is almost all the way against the wall (~3″) and doesn’t feel like it’s taking up too much spaceCons:-Vague Instructions and missing/additional parts (chair works, I just had 2 hose connectors left over)Meh Annoyances-Shoulder massage – Not sure if this is due to my size, but I had to consciously keep my arms in the arm rests as the shoulder air bags wanted to moved my arms out of the armrest-Narrow Armrest – Same as above, this might be due to my size, but the armrest airbags felt like they were pushing my arms out of the armrest.

After doing a lot of research about many different massage chairs in the market, we decided to buy the Kahuna chair and it was the best decision that we could ever make. The chair came assembled, so we just needed to follow a few steps to complete the installation. The chair offers different massage options. It also offers manual and automatic settings. The yoga setting is really good. Our family of 4 uses it daily and we all have our different preferred settings. The manual is very helpful as it provides a quick step by step as to how to use the different remote control buttons. Overall, we are all very happy with the purchase and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great massage chair.

I would have given this chair a 5 star review but during a massage it makes a annoying clicking noise that the seller Good Price World tells me is normal which I’m skeptical about. But the chair does everything I expected it to do which is relief for my nagging back pains.

Quality: ExcellentModes: Excellent: Tons to choose From: Full Body Heating (Heating on the Cavs can get too hot because of the pressure/heat combo), massages all the way from the base of the head to the lower butt. Also, the Cavs (Can be a bit rough), and Feet (Amazing!!)Size: Excellent: Compact for the House. I am 6’3″ so it is a little too small for me, but it still does the job comfortablyAssembly: Excellent: Not hard at all.Overall: For the money, there is not other massage chair that will give you the same amount of options. There is no better chair for the money, and I’ve done the research. A Must Buy for People Looking for a Good Quality and Reliable Chair. I know because I use mine once a day… as well as friends and family.
Joshua M Edwards –
I researched a bunch of massage chairs before purchasing this one and I’ve got to say that for the money it’s well worth it. I’ve only had the product for a little while, but it’s amazing. My only regret is not purchasing it sooner. The instructional video for assembly is excellent and easy to understand. It took me about 10 minutes to assemble. The video on how to use the remote is also very helpful. I love the numerous settings and targeted spot massages. My only con would be that I wish the leg length was a little longer (I’m 6 foot). It does extend but I haven’t figured out yet how to keep it extended. Other than that it’s excellent.

So up front I gave it 5 stars but as shipped I would only give it a 4.5. I had to to a small adjustment to make it better for me.I did a lot of research on Zero gravity chairs mainly because I didn’t want to spend a fortune but at the same time I was going to if it meant I got everything I wanted. So with this chair I was taking a risk because the cheaper price made me fear that quality. I am glad I did so far (mind you I only had this a few days so I cannot speak on longevity).So with all the research I did I will list my pro’s and cons. I will also try to answer any questions I can over the next few days as I check this.Pro’sPrice. You will NOT find a chair that has every new total package option.Options. This chair has rollers on the feet and calf. Shoulder airbags (not standard), arms, legs. It also has heat, vibrating but pad, and a twist and stretch options. THE MAIN option is that is has the new-age L-track. So just like the one in brook stone for 3000 $more, this one will massage all the way to your butt. Not just to the bottom of your back, to your butt! It also has this cool Yoga setting that will do a 30 minute massage that mixes massage with a stretch. The stretch is very noticeable, like you are bending your back over one of those gym balls.Real Zero gravity. I bring this up because you see on the picture that shes basically just recling back. I am not sure why Kahuna decided that was a good picture because the chair actually has two more zero gravity levels after that one. The final setting leans you fair back with your feet about 4-6 inches above your heart. Its legit zero gravity position.So the actual massage is above average, but not amazing. I want to be honest here because it’s a 1500 dollar chair. I would say 90% of the massage feels amazing. Sometimes the rollers just hit me wrong and it doesn’t hurt per say but I wouldn’t want it to stay there for long. I am still messing with the settings thou. I normally only feel this during the deep massage option. I believe this is only because the fabric near the rollers is a tad on the thin side. If they just added a tiny bit more padding it would make this massage perfect. The other massage options I have no issue, just sometimes the deep tissue.Structure is a pro and con. The base of this chair is a mix of plastic and steel. The plastic portion looks a little cheap but its sturdy. The steel portions will clearly support the wieght (I am 220 pounds, 6’4′ and have no issues). The leg/feet holder does adjust about 5 inches so its comfortable. I would say thou anything after 6’4” is pushing it. Everything once I got it all in place fit well and snug. I see this chair lasting awhile if it’s taken care of and not treated as a toy.Ok my CONS:Installation. While it should of been easy because there are really only a few minor steps, the screw holes did not line up. This is because at whatever factory it was made you can tell that the machine used to cut it was out of whack or something. This was only for the side walls. The shoulder pieces went in like a glove and only took me 5 minutes to install both. The arms on the other hand had two issues that can be fixed really easy. There are two steel rods you have to slide them on and on one of the arms the holes weren’t big enough. It was cut wrong and could tell me the jagged line. I had to shave a very tiny portion of the plastic down to get it to slip on. Im talking like 1mm..nothing more. The other part was the 4 screw holes. They are suppose to be lined up like two full moons, but instead I got the whole half moon thing and couldn’t fit the screw in. So I had to shave that down as well. Soon as I did it fit perfect and was very sturdy. This shouldnt happen and if you aren’t good with basic tools I would beware or have a friend help you set it up.Second CON and almost a deal breaker for me was the feet rollers. THEY HURT ALOT. Even with socks on they hurt. Its not because they are different from any other rollers on the market…they do the samething. They hurt because the fabric between your feet and the rollers is just super thin. This also was an easy fix because I just took some padded fabric and some velcro (type with an adhesive side and a velcro side) and placed it where my feet go. So now it is much softer and gives a great massage instead of feeling like rocks going into my feet.So with that said, A small 4 dollar peice of velcro and padded fabric, and a basic file and small drill bit is all I needed to make this chair beyond perfect for the price. Its comfortable now and has more options then it should have at $1500. The chair feels great and if you are starting to get minor aches and pains from work…this will make you feel good:) I’m a police officer so wearing a vest all the time starts to wear on ya. This chair is already helping a ton.I would buy it again and recommend it to all my friends.Hope this helps.

Shipping took a little longer than expected. Friendly delivery guy though. & as other reviews stated: the remote needs to be lit or have some type of illumination. 4.5 out 5. I’m a bigger guy and I have no issues. I did have to put extra padding for my lower back, but others that have tried it say there was no issue. Thanks

Love the L track. Amazing massage. The only thing I dont like is the limitation of 15 min for each program. I had 2 other older model massage chairs.This one give me the best massage that I never experienced.

Heavy as hell but it’s a great chair for the price. Foot massage is a bit strong. It you get used to it.
Benjamin Kappel –
Love this thing. 6’3” 210 lbs. It fits decent, love the manual mode to work out knots. Not a fan of the shoulder air bags because it can push me away from the chair. My wife reads for hours in it while it’s not even on, just reclined.
H. Netherton –
My boyfriend has a Master’s Degree in Engineering. It was a challenge for him to assemble. I would have been lost trying to assemble it by myself. I read many reviews & narrowed it down to what I wanted. I have cervical stenosis so I wanted a chair that would massage my neck and I wanted one to stretch & massage my back which this does. I wanted a space saver which this chair is although it is still a large chair. I’m petite so the pressure on the legs & arms is too intense for me so I allow the squeezing only briefly. My boyfriend who weighs over 200 lbs loves it! It is wonderful for massaging the back! I am disappointed that I can barely feel the heat. I hope this lasts a long time. I’ve had it for a couple months with out any problems. I would not want grandchildren playing with this as I’m concerned they could break it some how.

At my work they have a few expensive model chairs, I do not recall what they are but are easily top tier devices since the company pays for it. I got tired of always going to the room where they have it to only find that they are taken. I had some spare change left over and I did not want to spend 8k+ on a chair. I saw this chair, an Amazon prime chair with positive reviews, so I bit the bullet and bought it. It came literally 2 days after I purchased it and It took me about 15 minutes to set up. It consisted of screwing in the shoulder rests and side arm parts. This was the easy part, the hard part was disposing of the packing materials and the shipping box. I jumped into it once it was set up and I did the Auto mode and was very satisfied with the chair. It was definitely not the same as the office chairs, missing a few airbags locations and the roller did not have as intricate patterns, but it was very comparable. At the price point of view this chair performs greater than the cost and I am very happy with it.Pro: Cost, Strong Air bags when they are singled out, very comfortable chair, smaller than most chairs, Can be put really close to the wall, foot rollers are strong (many complain that it is too strong, but I always found most chairs are really weak and this one was cable of working my toes, It does come with pads for the weak)Con: Biggest and only con, is that there is only 15 minute sessions. Some sources online say the Yoga mode has 30 minute timer, but that is not true. Every time at the 14 minute mark the chair beeps letting you know it is almost over, and at the 15 minute mark, you will need to completely reset the sitting position and all your settings to be able to do another session. It was misleading that the chair has a timer up to 30 on the remote, but this might be due to multiple chair models which might use this remote. I plan to open the remote to take out or glue the module which produces the beep, as it’s ugly and loud. The only other con I can think of is that my arms sometimes slip out of the arm airbag location because the shoulder bags push them out. I find I need to sit in a certain position for them to not slip out, but sometimes you just relax too much and they naturally slip out.

I run a fairly stressful business so I needed something to relieve my stress on a daily basis at the end of my day. I bought this chair based on how many people said it was “to intense”. That’s exactly what I was looking for. I’m a bigger guy so I love having my knots dug into extremely hard. But, let me tell you, it can really squeeze and dig into all the right areas if you want it to. It has intensity levels you can adjust. I love it full INTENSITY! It takes some practice with the remote to find the settings you enjoy the most. Like I said I use this EVERYDAY. The chair is quality and works well. I have fallen asleep multiple times while this thing is working me over. It’s been a great investment into my health and well being.

We have been looking for a limited space massage chair for some time and as this was on sale we decided to take the plunge. We are extremely happy with it. It is very economical on space but does everything it promises. A few things to note. It is heavy so it may take two of you to put it together. The instructions are not very helpful, better to go to the video on YouTube and you can put this together in less than 10 minutes. Only issue is as others have said. The foot massage is brutal and we like a strong foot massage. Place a small hand towel on the fabric and that should be enough to go from pain to pleasure (this is why we made it 4 stars, not 5). Also, if you are very tall or very wide this chair isn’t for you. We are both under 6ft. All in all, we are very happy. Let’s hope it doesn’t break down because after the 1st year of their warranty you need to ship it to them to repair!

It came fully assembled. Options for customizing a massage for your needs or choosing from a number of programmed massages. Massage can be aggressive on hip bones so we use a blanket as a pad which is better than having a weak massager. The manual is poorly written and needs to be proofread for clarity. Some directions at EDC unintelligible. Customer service was top shelf. First chair delivered had a faulty hard-wired remote so they replaced the whole chair. Voice command is very convenient to make changes without having to move and disrupt the massage underway.

This chair does more than others selling for twice the price. It had the best features/price ratio of the other L-track massage recliners I tried and seems very sturdily built. Shipping was quick and I had it put together in about twenty minutes.

I researched home massage chairs endlessly and purchased this one a couple of months ago. We’re very pleased with the purchase and use it on a daily basis. My husband and I were able to figure out how to assemble it ourselves. He’s blind and assembly isn’t in my wheelhouse, so it isn’t terribly hard.We had an issue with the shoulder bags not inflating but I came on here and got lots of help and miraculously, they just started working on their own.
D. C. Cooper –
My wife has a high stress job and has back and neck pain and just general stress tight muscles. She is in great physical shape but as we age things sometimes hurt. Got this as a present for her and she loves it! (ok I do too)Lots of different settings to get the type of massage you want. I am partial to the Yoga setting which is a relaxing massage/stretch.One tip. I put some heavy socks on the foot pads. The foot massage can be rather intense. That cushions it a bit and definitely helps.I highly recommend it!
H. Hardman –
We have really loved this chair. We are still discovering new settings and combinations of settings that have enhanced our use of it. I use it every day. My 6’ son and 6’2” son feel it is a bit short, like other reviews stated, but the are still able to enjoy it. This chair is an exceptional value and I would recommend it to everyone! Online videos were critical for the assembly as a couple of the air hoses had incorrect parts applied. Luckily the video helped me figure it out and it was useable within an hour or so.I have only had one bad headache since getting this chair 5 months ago and needed no chiropractor visits or massages. Before getting it I had frequent headaches and spent a ton of $ on physical therapy, chiro, and massage. I figure it will pay for itself in about a year.

It does what it’s supposed to do – giving a pretty good massage. It still won’t match up to the acuity of a human touch but still relieves pain points on shoulders and neck, especially the tailbone only L track can cover. Even compared to Kahuna’s own higher-end line-up, this still is the best bang for the buck. My only disappointment was the delivery. I would expect at least two men to be delivering a 100-pound massage chair; only one man came. I ended up badly bruising my hand prevent the heavy box from falling over him. But overall, it’s been a little less than a month and the product is pretty good so far.

We liked the chair. Registered warranty at the time of purchase. After 3 years lower part stop working and there is no contact or any information about how to get service or parts. Purchased from good price world. Please help to find dealer or contact info to get it serviced. Thank you

Worth every dollar. This is an amazing massage chair. It was easy to set up and very easy to use. I would recommend this chair to anyone.I looked at lots of massage chairs and bought this one. I’m glad I made the right choice. Yoga mode is great.

After weeks of research I went for this solely because of great customer service and reviews of brand reliability. The market is saturated at every price point. A lot with stories of companies being unreachable or hard to get hold of for after sales service. I have contacted them 3 times and have reached a representative within seconds. Very professional, courteous and knowledgeable and one can tell some effort and training went into that.Gives a great massage. Not harsh at all as some say. Low noise and even the sound of the airbags is soothingGave it 4 cause at this price point, installation is a bit of a pain. Other brands have more features for less price and a had a small issue which was quickly fixed with a call but seems like a design flaw. At this price, this is the one to go for if you want peace of mind.

Bought this chair in November 2015 and we love it especially my wife who loves the yoga setting , and uses it daily. I use many times a day mainly for the foot massage, which does the bottoms of the feet nicely. I did initially find it hard on the feet so I used wool socks to lessen thethe foot discomfort while I got used to it, also i’m 6.1 and found that the bottom piece of the foot massager is adjustable for taller people although I don’t know what the recommended height for this chair is .Recently I moved the chair and bumped the remote plug in, which broke it and after contacting customer service they immediately sent me a replacement remote which fixed the problem. Customer service was fast and efficient. The free shipping to n. Dakota was included with the tracking number so we new exactly when the chair would arrive.I definitely will buy from this company again

We absolutely love this chair. I done a lot of research, and decided that this was the best purchase for our budget. It wasn’t that hard for my husband to put together and it only took him apx 30 mins. We did open it outside and carry in the pieces to our room for set up. The main part of the base is fairly heavy, but if you tip it up to an almost vertical position, it rolled right through the house like it was nothing.I’m 5’4″ with very long legs, a short body, and I’m a little on the fluffy side. I have fibromyalgia, and RA. I was a little nervous to use it since there are so many “pressure points” that cause tremendous pain off an on all day long. It took a little time to get used to the pressure, as there were certain areas where it really hurt. I knew this would be the case though, as just receiving a massage at a spa hurts. I used small pieces of foam we had laying around the house to “cushion” those areas (low back, feet) for the first couple of weeks. Like many reviews, I’d have to agree that the foot massage was a little harsh, but, that was only for the first few uses. Now, since using it regularly my trouble spots are used to it. I use it with bare feet and no extra padding at all and find myself wishing I could adjust it to massage a little harder. I even throw the head/back pillow over the back of the chair so I get the full force of the massage. How amazing is that! Having long legs, I love that the foot section adjusts with a little push of my feet. I have to extend it to it’s fullest. I use it every night before I go to bed and am feeling much better over all. It’s not a cure all, but it is definitely helping in how I feel as a whole. My hubs is 6′ and with a stocky build. He has a bad ankle so the air pressure even on the lightest setting is a little too much for him, so he will use it minus the air. He likes it, but not as much as I do.I like that there is a warning beep before prior to shutting off. It gives you the opportunity to hit the manual button, then the auto button and it resets the timer allowing me to continue receiving a massage. You do need to put it back to your desired setting, but at least it doesn’t shut off making you start completely over. A definite plus. I usually do a series of 4-5 different modes in 1 sitting, so get an hour to hour and 15 minute massage.The only problem I have with it is, I’m not sure the scanner always works but my husband found a way to somewhat fix this. Sometimes it will go to the top of my head, above my ears, and that’s not comfortable when it’s doing the kneading or tapping features. He found that when the scanning stops, if you push manual, then auto right away, it will redo the scan. Sometimes I have to do this more than once, but in doing so, it will actually end up stopping at the base of my head, which I prefer. Then I can set it to my preferred mode. The only other option I’d love to see in this chair would be if you could actually turn off the compressor during one of the pre-programmed modes, since due to my health issues I can get a spasm in my feet or legs, and being able to turn the air off them would be great. I am aware that I could just use the manual settings, but you don’t get the same movements as in a pre-programmed modes.UPDATE ON THE SCANNER; If you sit forward while it starts to go down, and then sit back once it’s near your hip area, it will stop at your neck every time. No need to keep trying to push the buttons. 😉 Still loving this chair and sleeping like a baby.If you are considering this chair, I would say get it, you definitely won’t be disappointed.

Quality: ExcellentModes: Excellent: Tons to choose From: Full Body Heating (Heating on the Cavs can get too hot because of the pressure/heat combo), massages all the way from the base of the head to the lower butt. Also, the Cavs (Can be a bit rough), and Feet (Amazing!!)Size: Excellent: Compact for the House. I am 6’3″ so it is a little too small for me, but it still does the job comfortablyAssembly: Excellent: Not hard at all.Overall: For the money, there is not other massage chair that will give you the same amount of options. There is no better chair for the money, and I’ve done the research. A Must Buy for People Looking for a Good Quality and Reliable Chair. I know because I use mine once a day… as well as friends and family.

The chair performs as stated. The delivery was not as stated by the shipper. She said the chair would be placed where I wanted it. Apparently the box was too large to fit through the standard door so they left it in the garage and left my son to unpack. That was fine. However, they also wanted to leave the wood supports for us to deal with. He insisted they haul that off. I tried to call the shipping number, got no answer and the mail box was full. My son was able to get everything in to the house and assembled with no problem. The chair itself is all I could ask for. I like the yoga stretch with heat.

I received the chair on the date and time I scheduled the delivery. The installation is not too bad. It definitely helped that there is a YouTube video showing you how to put the parts together. I tried it and liked it overall. The upper body message definitely feels very nice. It’s also compact, so it didn’t take up much space. However, I couldn’t find the location how to connect the heating cord with the plug that is supposed to be at the side panel somewhere. The video didn’t really show the location. In the menu, it didn’t mention it at all. There are also two black cotton strips without any description about what they are. So I called the 855-646-9500 customer service line around 5:29 p.m. (PST). A rep picked up the call quickly. However, as soon as I told him that I just received my message chair and finished installing it. But I have a quick question about the chair. He cut me short right away and tole me to call back tomorrow. He said he got off work at 5:30 p.m., which seemed to be a pretty usual customer service line and response. I wish the customer service quality could be better considering customers paying that much to purchase their product and had to encounter this type of cold treatment. Since I just received it today, I will use it for a while and see if it is really good and worth the money.==================================================As an update for my review: I received a call from Kahuna’s customer service rep the next morning and he did provided me with all the information needed. He was friendly and professional and apologized for the customer service call incident the night before. With his help, I can now really enjoy the chair and be a happy customer. So I updated my review and rating for them due to their prompt attention to my request.

I would like to thank all those who wrote reviews on this massage chair. The reviews helped in my decision to make this purchase. I bought this thru Amazon Prime and was delivered on time as promised. My husband took less than an hour to assemble and I was on the chair right after. There were a couple of steps missing in the assembly instruction manual but it was easy to figure out. Like everybody’s comment the foot massage part is kinda hard but with some padding, it helps and feels good. I wouldn’t ask to have this adjusted so it’s there when you need that hard massage on the leg. This is really good if you have RLS (restless leg syndrome). I love everything about this chair especially the Yoga mode, which stretches your body. Of course my cats love to sleep in it so I put a cover over it!

UPDATE 11-11-2020:After reaching out and finding the right guy at Kahuna to talk to, they offered to take the chair back no problem at all. This type of customer service is almost non existent today, and is exceptional, On customer service alone I give them 5 stars. Even though the chair didn’t work out the company at least went above and beyond to take care of us.Original Review:First of all, we researched chairs a long time before finally deciding to go with Kahuna, and were very Leary about making such a big purchase online and now looking back wish we hadn’t. We went Kahuna based on the glowing reviews and it seemed like a really decent chair for the price, and we like the idea of the stretching the main feature we were looking for in a chair. I have been battling sickness for years and having something like this would be a huge benefit for my body since I haven’t been able to move much. I had used other chairs in the past and they really seemed to help out so we decided to finally invest in our own and unfortunately couldn’t be more disappointed.Pros1. It looks niceCons1. Shipping was a terrible experience, the item actually sat is a warehouse a couple miles from out house for two weeks while we fought to get it delivered. When we finally were able to track down the third party delivery company that was actually delivering the product, they were excellent to deal with and went above and beyond our expectations. The actual shipping company was a joke.2. The chair is incredibly painful to use. In fact the only part that doesn’t Hurt is the part all the other reviewers complained about, the feet. The foot massage was the only tolerable part of the chair. Every other aspect of the chair would cause severe pain. I kept trying every way possible just to make sure I wasn’t doing something wrong I mean there were so many glowing reviews surely it just must be me but even on the lowest mildest setting it would cause unbearable pain, there was no easy mode for sure. And the part we bought the chair for, the stretching is even intolerable. I had several other people try the chair to make sure it wasn’t just me and everyone had the same response, it was just a rough unfun experience and a couple even told me it took them days to recover from how harsh it was.3. The remote leaves a lot to be desired. Controlling the chair is actually quite difficult and the only way to stop the chair from what it’s doing even in manual mode is to shut the remote off the turn back on. You can pause but the function just resumes back when you unpause, there really should be a cancel feature. The functions are very limited and in manual mode the three stage pressure adjustment doesn’t work only in auto. Which seems odd. Overall the remote is generic and functions are basic.4. The chair was put together by professionals but after only a couple uses it makes a horrendous grinding sound when reclining.5. The footrest part is not automatic like the rest of the chair. In order to extend it for your size you have to manually push with your legs and hold it in that position. This eventually becomes pretty uncomfortable to keep doing and isn’t very relaxing. Not a huge deal but wish it had been more adjustable so you didn’t feel like your legs were constantly being pushed into your chest and there could be a more natural way to sit.Unfortunately this chair for us just doesn’t work and even more Unfortunate is that between the shipping issues and getting it put together it was already past the return date by a couple weeks so now we are stuck with an expensive chair we cannot use that just sits there collecting dust. Like I said I have used a few other chairs and never had issues like with this one which Is very disappointing because we researched so much to make sure we narrowed it down the right one, and were so excited to actually have something like this to improve my quality of life which would have been huge for me. It’s tough buying such an item online you really have to try one for yourself first.

I am very happy with this chair. It is pretty much what was advertised and agrees with the reviews on Amazon. Delivery was on time to my garage and I moved it inside by myself. Assembly was a bit tricky on getting the sides in correctly, and I had to call because an air tube had displaced in shipment. Customer service handled this with a simple phone call. This chair does all the more expensive chairs do. The back massage is good and as firm as you need it. The Yoga feature actually stretches your spine. So far very satisfied with this purchase.
Annette Bernard –
We have had this massage chair for about 6 months now and have really enjoyed using this Kahuna massage chair. It is very relaxing and works the tension and sore muscles well. We have found the remote control to be quite easy to understand. There are several options to choose from. The options on the left hand side are more individual settings, such as roll where it will roll up and down your spine, a shiatsu, a shiatsu and roll and a tapping mode. You can also select on the left side an option to focus in one area of your back, such as the upper, the middle or the lower back that includes the buttocks. You can also choose an option on the left if you want the massage rollers to stay in one section or spot on your back for a longer period of time. The options on the right have already been pre program so all you need to do is sit back and the massage chair will complete a massage in the certain orders of which it was pre-programmed. You have several pre programs, of which will give you different focus areas on your back with different settings such as kneading rolling shiatsu and tapping, along with the air compression on your lower legs, feet, arms and shoulder areas. There is also a yoga setting that stretches and has the chair legs and back area go in different directions as it stretches and massages your back. The yoga pre-programmed option is very relaxing. The chair is comfortable to sit in and when you turned it on it begins to recline back just a little. Then there is an option for you to have it continue to recline further back. There is also a heat button that is nice to use during the winter months. In my experience each massage cycle is programmed to last only 15 minutes. Unfortunately I have not found a way to increase the time on any one individual cycle. However, we have found that when you hear the beeping sound towards the end of the 15 minute cycle, it is indicating that the massage chair will end it’s massage, but if you select one of the options on the right hand side, (the pre-programmed ones), you can bypass it turning off the beeping sound and continue with one of the pre programs for another 15 minutes. I just wish there was a way to increase the time to 30 minutes, instead of having to change up the massage when the beeping sounds come on. Many reviews noted that the foot rollers hurt their feet. For us, we found the foot rollers and air compression really helps relieve the sore and tired muscles and renews circulation in the feet. The foot rollers are one of the best features. Another great feature is the L- track design that reaches past your upper thighs. The chair delivery arrived at the specified date and time frame of which I was able to choose when I ordered. This was very helpful and arrived right on time and the delivery person even called 20 minutes prior to let us know he was on his way. The installation instructions online and in the booklet were helpful and the customer service number is awesome, you actually talk to a live person that will answer any questions you have and even helped us with some of the assembly questions. Overall this is a very solid massage chair at a great affordable price.

I have been suffering from work related back issues for years, this is the mother of all chairs and not emptying out your wallet. The delivery was first class here in the D, friendly and called to let me know the were running a little behind due to traffic. The chair has a small footprint with the design it can be placed close to the wall area.The foot rollers are a little intensive needed to put thick socks on. The massage is just hard to explain other than superb, like a person with strong small hands. Relieves pain and slept all night on the first day, hope to reduce pain Meds soon. Could be a problem for someone over 6 foot…Neg.. the remote does not have a light on it for low light use but still 5 stars

This chair is wonderful. Other reviews make note about it being a bit hard on the feet and it pushes the arms out. This is mostly true. I put a towel down for extra padding on the feet. The first week was a bit uncomfortable, but know I use it between 2-4 times a day Great to get the blood flowing first thing in the morning. Great after working on an assembly line all day. The yoga setting is also wonderful. I use one setting then the other setting back to back.

I researched home massage chairs endlessly and purchased this one a couple of months ago. We’re very pleased with the purchase and use it on a daily basis. My husband and I were able to figure out how to assemble it ourselves. He’s blind and assembly isn’t in my wheelhouse, so it isn’t terribly hard.We had an issue with the shoulder bags not inflating but I came on here and got lots of help and miraculously, they just started working on their own.
Amazon Customer –
So….I wanted to write my review now that I’ve had my massage chair for almost 4 weeks now. I based my purchase on other reviews, so I wanted to make sure I gave my input also!I am very happy with my purchase of the Kahuna LM6800. It’s a great massage chair for the price and all the features it comes with. So far anyone who has come to my house and tried it out loves it also. What’s not to love about a massage, and a good one at that! There are times I don’t always feel the massage is strong enough for me, but it takes a very deep one for me, but I just remove the padding and use something with less padding over the roller to get a stronger effect. I do wish it came with different thicknesses for padding as an option, we all have different needs and some of us require a deeper massage. The yoga stretch program is great, you can really feel the stretch but its not overpowering. I sat in an 8,000.00 massage chair that stretches before I purchased this one and I hurt for 4 days after because the stretch was too intense. I have set in chairs at Brookstone stores and other places and this chair does everything that theirs do for a much cheaper price tag!As far as the foot massager goes, its like other reviewers have stated, its pretty strong, but you do get more used to it with time. But the free, that’s right I said FREE Kahuna Pau foot massager I got with it as a free promtotional item with purchase of the chair from good price world is wonderful, and a much better foot massager and its valued at 499.99!Also as others have mentioned the remote needs some improvements. But once you get it figured out its quite easy, and I called good price world and asked questions, and they were great to answer any questions I had. The chair has 5 auto programs, plus the Yoga feature. For the other 5 programs you have to push auto and a number shows up, but to get to program 5 you have to push it fives times, and the 1 and 4 button lights up, you have no way of knowing this unless you call and ask, which I did. So I made a cheat sheet listing what auto program 1 through 5 is. I also had a problem with being charged for the foot massager at first. I called amazon which was no help at all, they couldn’t even see the promotional item when they pulled up the item on their own website. You need to work on promotional items offered Amazon. So I called good priced world who was very nice and told me once I received the massage chair to let them know and they would credit it back, and they did, and very quickly! They did ship separately with Good Price world shipping the foot massage, which I got within one week, but on the other hand I only give Amazon 1 star for taking 2 weeks and a day to get the massage chair to me. It shipped within a week, but the company they used to get it to me received it on a Monday and I didn’t get it until the following Monday. It set in a warehouse 1 hour away from me, and missed the first Monday truck by a few hours, and they only delivered in my area on Mondays, so it basically took a week longer than it should have.My other complaint as others have mentioned is that the programs only last 15 minutes even though it appears you can go to 30 on the remote. You can extend it by pushing manual-auto-manual before the 15 minutes are up to get it to go another 15 minutes, and your are relaxed and don’t realized the time is almost up, then you have to start over again , and the put the chair all the way back up and start again. Although I knew this was the case when I purchased it, because I read most of the 300 and some reviews. It was kind of a scary purchase considering the 1899.99 price tag. But the other reviews made me feel more confident and I would do it all over again.Now as far as if the chair will hold up without many problems I can’t say that as of yet since I haven’t had it long enough. I sure hope it does. But I do know that Good Price world will bend over backwards to help if the time comes. I Iam 5’1 and the chair fits me well. I even called Good Price World to ask what chair would fit me best for my height, as I was considering the Kahuna 7300, and they told me the LM6800 would fit my size better, and I really appreciated their honesty since the 7300 had a much higher price tag of 2599.00. When I’m reclined all the way back I cant really feel the foot rollers because I’m too short and my feet barely touches them, but that’s another reason why I’m glad I got the free foot massager with it, so I don’t miss getting a good foot massage since I have the extra one!So here are the PRO’S: Great massage chair with lots of options and features for the price. Nice looking chair.CONS: remote needs work. The air massage on the arms I can barely feel on the lowest intensity, and if you are in manual mode you can adjust the intensity, but then its too much for my calves. It would be nice if you could control the air bag intensity for the legs and arms separately. I wish there was more than one chair cushion included that was thinner for times you need a harder massage. Although no one else who has tried it out has complained about it not being a deep enough massage, so the average person would not notice. The remote should have a name listed for the first 5 auto programs instead of just numbers.So all in all, it has some things that could be easier like the remote or features, but am I happy with my purchase….absolutely YES!

The LM6800 was shipped on time and well packed when received. Putting it together is easy if you are good with tools and handy. But it will make it easier if reading through the instruction first and “pre-fit” the screws ( pay attention to the angle of the screws vs the holes) prior putting the side panels and shoulder airbags. Both air tubes for the side panels came with (male)plastic air fittings, so it is necessary to remove it in order to secure to the air supply tubings.Pro. It is well built with good warranty. It has full body massage functionalities.Con. The height of the rollers cannot be adjusted when they are going up and down. It’s not comfortable when rolling up and down the spine. May be getting used to it after a while, but an extra padding can help on the issue for now. The shoulder airbags may not work well for small or short bodies. The remote display is too small to read. There is no memory settings, not sure if it’s available on other models.There is not an area to input the serial # when registering online. ( just input the barcode to the same box with the model #)

I would have given this chair a 5 star review but during a massage it makes a annoying clicking noise that the seller Good Price World tells me is normal which I’m skeptical about. But the chair does everything I expected it to do which is relief for my nagging back pains.

I love my Kahuna LM 6800. It’s very comfortable and comes with Auto, Yoga, and Manual mode. Yoga is really good after a long day at work standing. Auto mode covers whole body without muscle stretch. Manual comes in handy when you want to focus on one section of the body. It’s pretty quiet and doesn’t take up lots of space, which is perfect for my home. I just wish the installation could be easier (took us about 45 mins to assemble). Overall it’s an awesome massage chair for it’s price.
Brian Hurley –
I’ve had 2-massage chairs prior to this purchase ranging 1.5-2x the price of this chair.This chair is superior in quality, craftsmanship and comfort to the other two chairs.With high usage, I’ve seen the parts that typically fail and have rebuilt each chair with warranty parts. Upon arrival I inspected the usual suspects and this chair has superior components. my chairs usually need to be replaced every 3-4 years so it makes sense to buy at mid range price point. I’m very happy to have this chair at the low end price point with a very good warranty.
Evrday Shopper –
Never have had a massage chair before. But this is the best one ever. The company is great. The warranty that comes with that is the best thing ever. All the options that it comes with are great and the foot rollers when I bought it I was afraid was going to be too hard on my feet but it actually is just fine but tickles my feet. I believe in this product enough to put my email on here which is huntharris97@gmail.com and will answer any questions about it.
U,p –
It does what it’s supposed to do – giving a pretty good massage. It still won’t match up to the acuity of a human touch but still relieves pain points on shoulders and neck, especially the tailbone only L track can cover. Even compared to Kahuna’s own higher-end line-up, this still is the best bang for the buck. My only disappointment was the delivery. I would expect at least two men to be delivering a 100-pound massage chair; only one man came. I ended up badly bruising my hand prevent the heavy box from falling over him. But overall, it’s been a little less than a month and the product is pretty good so far.

I have been battling sickness for years and having something like this would be a huge benefit for my body since I haven’t been able to move much. I had used other chairs in the past and they really seemed to help out so we decided to finally invest in our own and unfortunately couldn’t be more disappointed.Pros1. It looks niceCons1. Shipping was a terrible experience, the item actually sat is a warehouse a couple miles from out house for two weeks while we fought to get it delivered. When we finally were able to track down the third party delivery company that was actually delivering the product, they were excellent to deal with and went above and beyond our expectations. The actual shipping company was a joke.2. The chair is incredibly painful to use. In fact the only part that doesn’t Hurt is the part all the other reviewers complained about, the feet. The foot massage was the only tolerable part of the chair. Every other aspect of the chair would cause severe pain. I kept trying every way possible just to make sure I wasn’t doing something wrong I mean there were so many glowing reviews surely it just must be me but even on the lowest mildest setting it would cause unbearable pain, there was no easy mode for sure. And the part we bought the chair for, the stretching is even intolerable. I had several other people try the chair to make sure it wasn’t just me and everyone had the same response, it was just a rough unfun experience and a couple even told me it took them days to recover from how harsh it was.3. The remote leaves a lot to be desired. Controlling the chair is actually quite difficult and the only way to stop the chair from what it’s doing even in manual mode is to shut the remote off the turn back on. You can pause but the function just resumes back when you unpause, there really should be a cancel feature. The functions are very limited and in manual mode the three stage pressure adjustment doesn’t work only in auto. Which seems odd. Overall the remote is generic and functions are basic.4. The chair was put together by professionals but after only a couple uses it makes a horrendous grinding sound when reclining.5. The footrest part is not automatic like the rest of the chair. In order to extend it for your size you have to manually push with your legs and hold it in that position. This eventually becomes pretty uncomfortable to keep doing and isn’t very relaxing. Not a huge deal but wish it had been more adjustable so you didn’t feel like your legs were constantly being pushed into your chest and there could be a more natural way to sit.Unfortunately this chair for us just doesn’t work and even more Unfortunate is that between the shipping issues and getting it put together it was already past the return date by a couple weeks so now we are stuck with an expensive chair we cannot use that just sits there collecting dust. Like I said I have used a few other chairs and never had issues like with this one which Is very disappointing because we researched so much to make sure we narrowed it down the right one, and were so excited to actually have something like this to improve my quality of life which would have been huge for me. It’s tough buying such an item online you really have to try one for yourself first.

So far we really like it. I just wish the instructions were a little bit more detailed and not so vague. And I would have liked to had an extended warranty but it appears they don’t even offer it. Other than that we really do like the chair

I am really impressed with this product. I am 39 y.o., 6’7″, 255 lb. I have a 37.5″ waist and wear a 48-50 suit jacket. I am an avid weight lifter with wide proportions. I have many aches and pains from my active lifestyle. Lower back, foot, heel, shoulder blade, etc… I researched many different brands of massage chair, fearing I would not fit into any of them, as I am much bigger then average. Many reviews for the Kahuna were from 6’3″, 6’4″ people, so I decided to give it a try. It is snug, but I fit! My next concern is that none of these chairs would be powerful enough to massage me to satisfaction. This chair is more then capable! The 3 levels of intensity make it perfect for all body types and uses, usually the “medium” setting is powerful enough for me. I love the foot massage function, again, size 15 feet, I wasn’t sure if the rollers would reach the correct spots, but they do. I’ve only just gotten this, so I will update my review in the future as my only concern left is longevity, but with a 3 year warranty, even that is not too concerning. This is a fantastic chair! Assembly is very easy, and it has enough variety/intensity levels to be useful for most anyone. My petite wife loves it too! Great product, can’t recommend enough!

I have tested several massaging chair, the prices ranged from $3,000 – $9,000+ and none came close to this. The chair has the capability of zeroing right where you want it, at the perfect adjustable intensity and speed. The foot rollers were a little intense but they supplied cushions to soften it. Couldn’t ask for more, for a surprisingly competitive price and warranty.
Lana Z –
Update to my original review: I think that I have now figured out, the programming of my chair. I’ve discovered how to control the intensity and added padding where it was necessary for my individual comfort. We use the chair daily and are loving it. I’m still patting myself on the back, as I really feel that we scored a chair that is every bit as good, as the higher priced models!
Joshua M Edwards –
I researched a bunch of massage chairs before purchasing this one and I’ve got to say that for the money it’s well worth it. I’ve only had the product for a little while, but it’s amazing. My only regret is not purchasing it sooner. The instructional video for assembly is excellent and easy to understand. It took me about 10 minutes to assemble. The video on how to use the remote is also very helpful. I love the numerous settings and targeted spot massages. My only con would be that I wish the leg length was a little longer (I’m 6 foot). It does extend but I haven’t figured out yet how to keep it extended. Other than that it’s excellent.
Berube333 –
Shipping took a little longer than expected. Friendly delivery guy though. & as other reviews stated: the remote needs to be lit or have some type of illumination. 4.5 out 5. I’m a bigger guy and I have no issues. I did have to put extra padding for my lower back, but others that have tried it say there was no issue. Thanks

I have been suffering from work related back issues for years, this is the mother of all chairs and not emptying out your wallet. The delivery was first class here in the D, friendly and called to let me know the were running a little behind due to traffic. The chair has a small footprint with the design it can be placed close to the wall area.The foot rollers are a little intensive needed to put thick socks on. The massage is just hard to explain other than superb, like a person with strong small hands. Relieves pain and slept all night on the first day, hope to reduce pain Meds soon. Could be a problem for someone over 6 foot…Neg.. the remote does not have a light on it for low light use but still 5 stars
Matthew Ohrt –
After about 1.5 years the liner did become frayed And the motor that makes the mechanism go up and down got caught in it and burned out. I called and they sent me a new liner in new motor assembly. I had to put it in but the service was excellent. I have a working chair again.
Benjamin Kappel –
Love this thing. 6’3” 210 lbs. It fits decent, love the manual mode to work out knots. Not a fan of the shoulder air bags because it can push me away from the chair. My wife reads for hours in it while it’s not even on, just reclined.
Tim V –
My wife loves the chair especially for the Yoga Stretching. Unfortunately, I am 5′ 10″ and the chair is not able to stretch me because the legs are simply a spring loaded extension. A rather large oversight by the company or perhaps they are not concerned with selling a product that works for most American men. So if you are taller than 5′ 7″ I would recommend finding a different chair if the Yoga Stretching is high on your reasons to buy a massage chair.

My family and I were walking around the mall and ended up in a store that sells these. I saw a chair like this and the price of $3999. I couldn’t believe my eyes. What can a chair possibly do to be worth that? Then I sat in it. I was hooked and had to have one. The price sent me in search of an alternative. In comes trusty Amazon. I saw this chair and read all of the reviews. I wanted to be sure this was an equivalent chair. It’s not apples to apples, but this chair seems to be every bit as relaxing as the one I used in the store.I have stenosis in my lower back and this chair actually helps the pain that I feel all day every day. I will agree with other reviewers that the foot massager is a bit rough, even with two layers of the shipping foam being added on top of it. However, other than that, this chair is awesome! It massages strong enough to make me grunt and actually pop my back. The more you lower the back of the chair, the stronger the rub. I love it. My family loves it. Money well spent. This was my birthday present to myself and it has really helped how I feel.It is heavy to move into the house and it does require some assembly. I think it was 10 screws total, not that bad.The only negative I see is that the design of the arm position allows your arms to move out of the recessed area. I have to pay attention to that and push my arms back into the recess constantly. Honestly, though, I wanted it for massaging my back. It does that like a group of massage therapists at one time. I can fall asleep while resting in this chair and for that, I am truly thankful.

we love our chair, we used to travel by car and used chairs like that on the way to New York and back to Florida. my husband fell and broke his hip. while waiting in the waiting room and playing a game of solitaire on the phone an advertisement came up for the Kahuna Chair, the rest is history. we use it, love it and could not be happier.
Unbaked Pegga –
This is the best money I have ever spent in my life. this chair is fantastic! It is customizable. If you want to focus on one part of your body and 3 levels of massage…fatigue relief, comfort, and pain relief. I could go on and on but this chair is a fantastic bargain and I would highly reccomend it to anyone
The Introvert MillionaireThe Introvert Millionaire –
I run a fairly stressful business so I needed something to relieve my stress on a daily basis at the end of my day. I bought this chair based on how many people said it was “to intense”. That’s exactly what I was looking for. I’m a bigger guy so I love having my knots dug into extremely hard. But, let me tell you, it can really squeeze and dig into all the right areas if you want it to. It has intensity levels you can adjust. I love it full INTENSITY! It takes some practice with the remote to find the settings you enjoy the most. Like I said I use this EVERYDAY. The chair is quality and works well. I have fallen asleep multiple times while this thing is working me over. It’s been a great investment into my health and well being.

This is my first massage chair, though I have tried many and have received massages from numerous therapists. I am impressed with the various settings that allow one to accommodate the sore spots. An interesting experience I have had in the short time I have been using is how it cures my headaches! I was not expecting that bonus! Using the manual controls I have found that I can better focus on troubled areas than my therapist does, since I can control the speed and timing of the massage.Great chair, great price! Highly recommended!
TrumpSupporterMAGA –
Love the massage rollers – especially the foot rollers. The heat is great. The airbags are too harsh. Even on the lightest setting, it felt as though they were cutting off my circulation and can honestly make you feel a bit panicked and “stuck”. The zero gravity positions are amazing. The biggest disappointment for me was the shipping. The original shipping company did not regularly update the manifest. Thankfully Amazon kept me better updated. The shipment experienced a “carrier delay” two days prior to scheduled delivery date. When I called Pilot’s customer service about it three days later, they had no answers to my questions. Then out of the blue, the delivery date changed to a week later! At least the manifest was finally updated. When it arrived to the local delivery warehouse, I was told it would be another 5 days until it was delivered to my home!! We ultimately drove to the warehouse and picked it up ourselves. Disappointed in the experience – especially after spending so much money.

We recently purchased the Kahuna Massage Chair for a combo husband/wife birthday and anniversary. We love it! I’m using about every other day and my husband…..well let’s round down and say 3 times a day, it’s great. I am 56 years old and a nurse of 34 years and I’m thinking my legs would be in better shape if I had purchased this in my 20s or 30s. There is nothing like a good shower and massage after a long day and the zero gravity function is great for elevating your legs above your heart. The chair is designed to be low profile, so even in this position it does not hit the wall (big plus) Also, love the L track function that really gets down around your lower back and hips. The foot compression is a little too strong sometimes, but there are always other program options that allow you to bypass this area or wearing rubber soled slippers solves the problem for me. This is one of our better purchases and the white glove service, offered through the company was great. They basically come in and set it up for you for an additional charge. We felt very pampered throughout the whole process. I made my decision by reading a lot of reviews, hope this helps you make yours. Happy New Year,….. to your health.
A & J –
So up front I gave it 5 stars but as shipped I would only give it a 4.5. I had to to a small adjustment to make it better for me.I did a lot of research on Zero gravity chairs mainly because I didn’t want to spend a fortune but at the same time I was going to if it meant I got everything I wanted. So with this chair I was taking a risk because the cheaper price made me fear that quality. I am glad I did so far (mind you I only had this a few days so I cannot speak on longevity).So with all the research I did I will list my pro’s and cons. I will also try to answer any questions I can over the next few days as I check this.Pro’sPrice. You will NOT find a chair that has every new total package option.Options. This chair has rollers on the feet and calf. Shoulder airbags (not standard), arms, legs. It also has heat, vibrating but pad, and a twist and stretch options. THE MAIN option is that is has the new-age L-track. So just like the one in brook stone for 3000 $more, this one will massage all the way to your butt. Not just to the bottom of your back, to your butt! It also has this cool Yoga setting that will do a 30 minute massage that mixes massage with a stretch. The stretch is very noticeable, like you are bending your back over one of those gym balls.Real Zero gravity. I bring this up because you see on the picture that shes basically just recling back. I am not sure why Kahuna decided that was a good picture because the chair actually has two more zero gravity levels after that one. The final setting leans you fair back with your feet about 4-6 inches above your heart. Its legit zero gravity position.So the actual massage is above average, but not amazing. I want to be honest here because it’s a 1500 dollar chair. I would say 90% of the massage feels amazing. Sometimes the rollers just hit me wrong and it doesn’t hurt per say but I wouldn’t want it to stay there for long. I am still messing with the settings thou. I normally only feel this during the deep massage option. I believe this is only because the fabric near the rollers is a tad on the thin side. If they just added a tiny bit more padding it would make this massage perfect. The other massage options I have no issue, just sometimes the deep tissue.Structure is a pro and con. The base of this chair is a mix of plastic and steel. The plastic portion looks a little cheap but its sturdy. The steel portions will clearly support the wieght (I am 220 pounds, 6’4′ and have no issues). The leg/feet holder does adjust about 5 inches so its comfortable. I would say thou anything after 6’4” is pushing it. Everything once I got it all in place fit well and snug. I see this chair lasting awhile if it’s taken care of and not treated as a toy.Ok my CONS:Installation. While it should of been easy because there are really only a few minor steps, the screw holes did not line up. This is because at whatever factory it was made you can tell that the machine used to cut it was out of whack or something. This was only for the side walls. The shoulder pieces went in like a glove and only took me 5 minutes to install both. The arms on the other hand had two issues that can be fixed really easy. There are two steel rods you have to slide them on and on one of the arms the holes weren’t big enough. It was cut wrong and could tell me the jagged line. I had to shave a very tiny portion of the plastic down to get it to slip on. Im talking like 1mm..nothing more. The other part was the 4 screw holes. They are suppose to be lined up like two full moons, but instead I got the whole half moon thing and couldn’t fit the screw in. So I had to shave that down as well. Soon as I did it fit perfect and was very sturdy. This shouldnt happen and if you aren’t good with basic tools I would beware or have a friend help you set it up.Second CON and almost a deal breaker for me was the feet rollers. THEY HURT ALOT. Even with socks on they hurt. Its not because they are different from any other rollers on the market…they do the samething. They hurt because the fabric between your feet and the rollers is just super thin. This also was an easy fix because I just took some padded fabric and some velcro (type with an adhesive side and a velcro side) and placed it where my feet go. So now it is much softer and gives a great massage instead of feeling like rocks going into my feet.So with that said, A small 4 dollar peice of velcro and padded fabric, and a basic file and small drill bit is all I needed to make this chair beyond perfect for the price. Its comfortable now and has more options then it should have at $1500. The chair feels great and if you are starting to get minor aches and pains from work…this will make you feel good:) I’m a police officer so wearing a vest all the time starts to wear on ya. This chair is already helping a ton.I would buy it again and recommend it to all my friends.Hope this helps.

Very comfortable easy to use works great!! Would highly recommend, I work construction and it definitely helps loosen my bad back as well as my wife’s chronic back pain.

Ordered this chair for my pregnant wife for Christmas and she could not have been happier with it! The brown color fits in with the living room and the chair looks expensive and well made. We were surprised by how well the air bags work, they apply a LOT of pressure to your arms, legs and shoulders. I always keep it at low intensity for that reason but glad it has that ability. The rollers are great and the pre-programmed modes are good. Only thing I would like to see , is a place where we can order extra padding for the legs and feet. Yes, it already comes with one set of extra foam for the feet but would like another for the calves.
U,p –
It does what it’s supposed to do – giving a pretty good massage. It still won’t match up to the acuity of a human touch but still relieves pain points on shoulders and neck, especially the tailbone only L track can cover. Even compared to Kahuna’s own higher-end line-up, this still is the best bang for the buck. My only disappointment was the delivery. I would expect at least two men to be delivering a 100-pound massage chair; only one man came. I ended up badly bruising my hand prevent the heavy box from falling over him. But overall, it’s been a little less than a month and the product is pretty good so far.

We liked the chair. Registered warranty at the time of purchase. After 3 years lower part stop working and there is no contact or any information about how to get service or parts. Purchased from good price world. Please help to find dealer or contact info to get it serviced. Thank you

I love my Kahuna LM 6800. It’s very comfortable and comes with Auto, Yoga, and Manual mode. Yoga is really good after a long day at work standing. Auto mode covers whole body without muscle stretch. Manual comes in handy when you want to focus on one section of the body. It’s pretty quiet and doesn’t take up lots of space, which is perfect for my home. I just wish the installation could be easier (took us about 45 mins to assemble). Overall it’s an awesome massage chair for it’s price.

TL;DR: Fantastic chair, Only downside is the installation.Just got the chair 30 minutes ago, and this is my first massage chair, so take this with a grain of salt. This chair feels fantastic, and you really can’t beat the price. While searching for a chair I went to a few stores that carried them and this is much better than $2-3k chairs I tried out, and it definitely rivals the $7-8k chairs. Needless to say I was very happy after the first massage and here is my experience.The package arrived, and was a bit banged up, but there was no damage to the chair. Installation should have taken less than 10 minutes, however the instructions were very brief, and you kind of have to figure things out on your own. Which isn’t too bad, except I either did not receive two hoses or I received two additional connectors. Roughly 20 minutes after signing for the package I had the chair setup, plugged in, and ready to go. I fired up the chair, closed my eyes, and began to relax as the machine did its thing. Then the air bags started going and I could swear Darth Vader was giving me a massage. The noise isn’t too loud and if you have the TV on or some music playing I’m sure it will drown it out. However if it’s quiet you can hear the chair working. I noticed that I was a bit too big for the chair (6’2″, 250lbs), as the airbags for the arms kept trying to push my arms out of the armrest. The other indicator, was that I had to curl my hands a bit (think of resting your hands on the home row of the keyboard) as my fingers were an inch or two too long for the enclosed armrest. That being said, I definitely enjoyed the massage and would totally get this chair again. After it was all over, I really wanted to go again, but I know my wife was eager to try it out as well, so she took the next turn and there were no complaints from her. Both of us would definitely recommend this chair to anyone without hesitation.Pros:-Incredible bang for the buck. Great amount of features, Solid construction-L-Track rocks – most of the chairs in the price range stopped at the lower back, this one goes all the way to your glutes.-Space saving design – This chair is almost all the way against the wall (~3″) and doesn’t feel like it’s taking up too much spaceCons:-Vague Instructions and missing/additional parts (chair works, I just had 2 hose connectors left over)Meh Annoyances-Shoulder massage – Not sure if this is due to my size, but I had to consciously keep my arms in the arm rests as the shoulder air bags wanted to moved my arms out of the armrest-Narrow Armrest – Same as above, this might be due to my size, but the armrest airbags felt like they were pushing my arms out of the armrest.

This chair is EVERYTHING! The Kahuna massage chair owes me nothing. Easy to assemble. Took 35 minutes. Used the YouTube video for setup. Outstanding! The controls are easy to work. Others said the foot rollers were to much but I found them perfect for me as I like a lot of pressure. Fits nicely in a corner of my bedroom. Not too big, not too small. Quiet enough for what it has to do. I use it daily…THIS IS A GREAT BUY!

I looked for a long time for a masssge chair and finally decided on this one and I’m extremely happy with my decision. It feels like a chair that costs upwards of $5,000 and made so well. It feels amazing from head to toe. I couldn’t be more happy with my purchase. We’ll worth the $1,899.00 I paid for it. I highly recommend this chair. This is the first review I’ve ever made on a product but this massage chair does everything it says and I feel so relaxed when I’m done.

It’s not as big as it looks on the picture which is a good thing. I’m only 6’ 160 pounds and I fit great but the legs part is spring loaded and always pushes my legs back up. I’m also only 23 and I do a lot of manual labor and this thing killed my feet the first few times I used it luckily you can turn the foot massager off. Overall it’s a little over priced just because the leg massager could have been designed better like other chairs have a button to extend the legs instead of spring loaded. Also I was a little disappointed there is nothing for your hips like no air bags or rollers.

Controller broken and cost too much for replacement, hard to find replacement parts….
Emrys E. Maier –
This massage chair performs extremely well, is manufactured with quality materials, and has had no problems since we bought it (2 months ago). The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it’s just too small for me. Since it was a gift for my wife (she’s under 5′), it’s no problem. But I wanted to just mention for others that this chair is a bit too small for a 6′ man. Even with the extending foot part, I have found that I really have to squeeze in to use it. Fortunately I can just hang my legs over the top of the leg parts and use the back massage part without any problems.
Cynthia Kiive –
The yoga part is just wonderful. You had better be ready to adjust your body to the sudden stretching. I had to take my feet and be on my tiptoes so I wouldn’t have my ankles smashed and feet trapped. Other than that, it is wonderful for my Herniated disks, the Nerve tumor, and the Scoliosis I have.Be sure and learn what each different setting can do. The heat can be optional too.Sometimes you want an extended time with a certain massage type. You can have that. One at a time or all in one. Different areas can be isolated for comfort. I need to add a pillow in my chair at the lower back area in order to prevent the rollers, etc. from digging in too hard. I also add towels to protect the chair from the ointments I use. I no longer need a Physical Therapist. I have one in-house now!♥♥♥

I love this chair! The chair exceeded my expectations. Criteria for a chair was it needed to fit through a 29″ door. I wanted the chair in my home office which has a bedroom size door frame. When looking at chairs to purchase so many of the chairs would not fit. Once the chair was in my office it took less then 15 minutes to setup. 2 screws on each side piece and 3 screws on each shoulder piece and my chair was ready. The remote was simple not complicated and was very intuitive. I am 5’2″ and it fits my body, and my friend is 6′ and it fit his body. The L-Track is awesome. When you start in one of the auto modes the chair first scans for your body size. Being a shorter person the “average anything” just doesn’t work for me and since this scanned first the massage was from the top of my neck to below my hamstrings. Yoga mode adds the extra stretch to the massage. After using one of the auto modes I then targeted my shoulders and neck which need just a little extra time. Again, the remote is simple and I was able to figure out how to use the target mode easily.The seller who offers the chair is marvelous. I had a question so I called the number on the manual figuring I would get a recording and never hear back. Nope! I spoke to a very nice gentleman who was polite and professional. I hope to never have to call for a repair but if I do need to I feel there is someone who will pick up the phone and help.Always scary to buy something which cost so much without trying it or and having to trusting the reviews and the customer service of the seller. I am pleasantly surprised that the chair exceeded my expectations and the seller is just a phone call away.Since my review is so positive I do want to mention in no way have I been compensated for this review. The chair is really that good and I felt it was worth my time to share for anyone else who reads reviews before purchasing.

I would like to thank all those who wrote reviews on this massage chair. The reviews helped in my decision to make this purchase. I bought this thru Amazon Prime and was delivered on time as promised. My husband took less than an hour to assemble and I was on the chair right after. There were a couple of steps missing in the assembly instruction manual but it was easy to figure out. Like everybody’s comment the foot massage part is kinda hard but with some padding, it helps and feels good. I wouldn’t ask to have this adjusted so it’s there when you need that hard massage on the leg. This is really good if you have RLS (restless leg syndrome). I love everything about this chair especially the Yoga mode, which stretches your body. Of course my cats love to sleep in it so I put a cover over it!

We absolutely love this chair. I done a lot of research, and decided that this was the best purchase for our budget. It wasn’t that hard for my husband to put together and it only took him apx 30 mins. We did open it outside and carry in the pieces to our room for set up. The main part of the base is fairly heavy, but if you tip it up to an almost vertical position, it rolled right through the house like it was nothing.I’m 5’4″ with very long legs, a short body, and I’m a little on the fluffy side. I have fibromyalgia, and RA. I was a little nervous to use it since there are so many “pressure points” that cause tremendous pain off an on all day long. It took a little time to get used to the pressure, as there were certain areas where it really hurt. I knew this would be the case though, as just receiving a massage at a spa hurts. I used small pieces of foam we had laying around the house to “cushion” those areas (low back, feet) for the first couple of weeks. Like many reviews, I’d have to agree that the foot massage was a little harsh, but, that was only for the first few uses. Now, since using it regularly my trouble spots are used to it. I use it with bare feet and no extra padding at all and find myself wishing I could adjust it to massage a little harder. I even throw the head/back pillow over the back of the chair so I get the full force of the massage. How amazing is that! Having long legs, I love that the foot section adjusts with a little push of my feet. I have to extend it to it’s fullest. I use it every night before I go to bed and am feeling much better over all. It’s not a cure all, but it is definitely helping in how I feel as a whole. My hubs is 6′ and with a stocky build. He has a bad ankle so the air pressure even on the lightest setting is a little too much for him, so he will use it minus the air. He likes it, but not as much as I do.I like that there is a warning beep before prior to shutting off. It gives you the opportunity to hit the manual button, then the auto button and it resets the timer allowing me to continue receiving a massage. You do need to put it back to your desired setting, but at least it doesn’t shut off making you start completely over. A definite plus. I usually do a series of 4-5 different modes in 1 sitting, so get an hour to hour and 15 minute massage.The only problem I have with it is, I’m not sure the scanner always works but my husband found a way to somewhat fix this. Sometimes it will go to the top of my head, above my ears, and that’s not comfortable when it’s doing the kneading or tapping features. He found that when the scanning stops, if you push manual, then auto right away, it will redo the scan. Sometimes I have to do this more than once, but in doing so, it will actually end up stopping at the base of my head, which I prefer. Then I can set it to my preferred mode. The only other option I’d love to see in this chair would be if you could actually turn off the compressor during one of the pre-programmed modes, since due to my health issues I can get a spasm in my feet or legs, and being able to turn the air off them would be great. I am aware that I could just use the manual settings, but you don’t get the same movements as in a pre-programmed modes.UPDATE ON THE SCANNER; If you sit forward while it starts to go down, and then sit back once it’s near your hip area, it will stop at your neck every time. No need to keep trying to push the buttons. 😉 Still loving this chair and sleeping like a baby.If you are considering this chair, I would say get it, you definitely won’t be disappointed.

I have been suffering from work related back issues for years, this is the mother of all chairs and not emptying out your wallet. The delivery was first class here in the D, friendly and called to let me know the were running a little behind due to traffic. The chair has a small footprint with the design it can be placed close to the wall area.The foot rollers are a little intensive needed to put thick socks on. The massage is just hard to explain other than superb, like a person with strong small hands. Relieves pain and slept all night on the first day, hope to reduce pain Meds soon. Could be a problem for someone over 6 foot…Neg.. the remote does not have a light on it for low light use but still 5 stars

I run a fairly stressful business so I needed something to relieve my stress on a daily basis at the end of my day. I bought this chair based on how many people said it was “to intense”. That’s exactly what I was looking for. I’m a bigger guy so I love having my knots dug into extremely hard. But, let me tell you, it can really squeeze and dig into all the right areas if you want it to. It has intensity levels you can adjust. I love it full INTENSITY! It takes some practice with the remote to find the settings you enjoy the most. Like I said I use this EVERYDAY. The chair is quality and works well. I have fallen asleep multiple times while this thing is working me over. It’s been a great investment into my health and well being.

I will start by saying, I only received the product today. It arrived one week early which is awesome for me. High marks for quick shipping. It took me about 2 hours to put the chair together, as I am not mechanically inclined. All in all, not too difficult to assemble. I have run through the different options now and I really like what I have seen. I can’t wait to try each one out and see what I like best. I am a happy customer so far.

We owned this chair for about a month now and every family member likes it. It took us about one hour to assemble the chair but it was easy. Build quality is not the best but acceptable for the price. The massage quality is very good but the auto programs are confusing. It will be nice if manufacture can explain the focus or the purpose of the 4 auo programs. I use the manual function most of the time to focus on particular body part needs to be worked on. I do not feel any difference between the different roller strength setting but it provides adequate pressure. The yoga program is awesome. It really stretches your body. I feel really relaxing after a 30 minute combined yoga and manual session. The foot roller and calf air bag can be harsh some times even with the lowest pressure setting. Keep in mind the warranty is 3 years but only the first year is on site service. Overall, I recommend this chair if it falls into your price range. You can find a better chair definitely but it will be hard with this price.

Ordered this chair for my pregnant wife for Christmas and she could not have been happier with it! The brown color fits in with the living room and the chair looks expensive and well made. We were surprised by how well the air bags work, they apply a LOT of pressure to your arms, legs and shoulders. I always keep it at low intensity for that reason but glad it has that ability. The rollers are great and the pre-programmed modes are good. Only thing I would like to see , is a place where we can order extra padding for the legs and feet. Yes, it already comes with one set of extra foam for the feet but would like another for the calves.

Instructions for assembly were a little confusing. Not difficult. Just had to study the parts to figure the order of assembly. A little rough on the soles of the feet. Will be adding a layer of material to the foot rollers to soften the feel. Overall it gives a fairly substantial massage. Would have liked a more thorough manual for the operation of the controller. Not too loud. Comfortable to use just for relaxing.

I purchased this chair from Kahuna. It’s a great value and their customer service is excellent. I spoke with several people in their office and they were professional and responsive in every interaction.

Bought this chair in November 2015 and we love it especially my wife who loves the yoga setting , and uses it daily. I use many times a day mainly for the foot massage, which does the bottoms of the feet nicely. I did initially find it hard on the feet so I used wool socks to lessen thethe foot discomfort while I got used to it, also i’m 6.1 and found that the bottom piece of the foot massager is adjustable for taller people although I don’t know what the recommended height for this chair is .Recently I moved the chair and bumped the remote plug in, which broke it and after contacting customer service they immediately sent me a replacement remote which fixed the problem. Customer service was fast and efficient. The free shipping to n. Dakota was included with the tracking number so we new exactly when the chair would arrive.I definitely will buy from this company again

Love this thing. 6’3” 210 lbs. It fits decent, love the manual mode to work out knots. Not a fan of the shoulder air bags because it can push me away from the chair. My wife reads for hours in it while it’s not even on, just reclined.
Roy K –
It came fully assembled. Options for customizing a massage for your needs or choosing from a number of programmed massages. Massage can be aggressive on hip bones so we use a blanket as a pad which is better than having a weak massager. The manual is poorly written and needs to be proofread for clarity. Some directions at EDC unintelligible. Customer service was top shelf. First chair delivered had a faulty hard-wired remote so they replaced the whole chair. Voice command is very convenient to make changes without having to move and disrupt the massage underway.

The moment we told friends that we got a massage chair they immediately figured we spent way more then we did. After setting the Kahuna LM6800 up the first thing you see is how little space it uses especially when not in use. The next thing you will see is how many settings there are to choose from. You can always find a setting for you. The chair look very premium and feels premium as well. I would purchase it again in a heart beat.If I am looking for something bad to say it would be if you let the program timer run out the chair resets and sits you back up. This just interrupts my relaxation =-). Also there is no hamstring massage area but more expensive chairs do have this just something I noticed that was missing that I would have liked.At the time of review the chair is about 1 month old and used 2 to 3 times daily by our family.

UPDATE 11-11-2020:After reaching out and finding the right guy at Kahuna to talk to, they offered to take the chair back no problem at all. This type of customer service is almost non existent today, and is exceptional, On customer service alone I give them 5 stars. Even though the chair didn’t work out the company at least went above and beyond to take care of us.Original Review:First of all, we researched chairs a long time before finally deciding to go with Kahuna, and were very Leary about making such a big purchase online and now looking back wish we hadn’t. We went Kahuna based on the glowing reviews and it seemed like a really decent chair for the price, and we like the idea of the stretching the main feature we were looking for in a chair. I have been battling sickness for years and having something like this would be a huge benefit for my body since I haven’t been able to move much. I had used other chairs in the past and they really seemed to help out so we decided to finally invest in our own and unfortunately couldn’t be more disappointed.Pros1. It looks niceCons1. Shipping was a terrible experience, the item actually sat is a warehouse a couple miles from out house for two weeks while we fought to get it delivered. When we finally were able to track down the third party delivery company that was actually delivering the product, they were excellent to deal with and went above and beyond our expectations. The actual shipping company was a joke.2. The chair is incredibly painful to use. In fact the only part that doesn’t Hurt is the part all the other reviewers complained about, the feet. The foot massage was the only tolerable part of the chair. Every other aspect of the chair would cause severe pain. I kept trying every way possible just to make sure I wasn’t doing something wrong I mean there were so many glowing reviews surely it just must be me but even on the lowest mildest setting it would cause unbearable pain, there was no easy mode for sure. And the part we bought the chair for, the stretching is even intolerable. I had several other people try the chair to make sure it wasn’t just me and everyone had the same response, it was just a rough unfun experience and a couple even told me it took them days to recover from how harsh it was.3. The remote leaves a lot to be desired. Controlling the chair is actually quite difficult and the only way to stop the chair from what it’s doing even in manual mode is to shut the remote off the turn back on. You can pause but the function just resumes back when you unpause, there really should be a cancel feature. The functions are very limited and in manual mode the three stage pressure adjustment doesn’t work only in auto. Which seems odd. Overall the remote is generic and functions are basic.4. The chair was put together by professionals but after only a couple uses it makes a horrendous grinding sound when reclining.5. The footrest part is not automatic like the rest of the chair. In order to extend it for your size you have to manually push with your legs and hold it in that position. This eventually becomes pretty uncomfortable to keep doing and isn’t very relaxing. Not a huge deal but wish it had been more adjustable so you didn’t feel like your legs were constantly being pushed into your chest and there could be a more natural way to sit.Unfortunately this chair for us just doesn’t work and even more Unfortunate is that between the shipping issues and getting it put together it was already past the return date by a couple weeks so now we are stuck with an expensive chair we cannot use that just sits there collecting dust. Like I said I have used a few other chairs and never had issues like with this one which Is very disappointing because we researched so much to make sure we narrowed it down the right one, and were so excited to actually have something like this to improve my quality of life which would have been huge for me. It’s tough buying such an item online you really have to try one for yourself first.

So….I wanted to write my review now that I’ve had my massage chair for almost 4 weeks now. I based my purchase on other reviews, so I wanted to make sure I gave my input also!I am very happy with my purchase of the Kahuna LM6800. It’s a great massage chair for the price and all the features it comes with. So far anyone who has come to my house and tried it out loves it also. What’s not to love about a massage, and a good one at that! There are times I don’t always feel the massage is strong enough for me, but it takes a very deep one for me, but I just remove the padding and use something with less padding over the roller to get a stronger effect. I do wish it came with different thicknesses for padding as an option, we all have different needs and some of us require a deeper massage. The yoga stretch program is great, you can really feel the stretch but its not overpowering. I sat in an 8,000.00 massage chair that stretches before I purchased this one and I hurt for 4 days after because the stretch was too intense. I have set in chairs at Brookstone stores and other places and this chair does everything that theirs do for a much cheaper price tag!As far as the foot massager goes, its like other reviewers have stated, its pretty strong, but you do get more used to it with time. But the free, that’s right I said FREE Kahuna Pau foot massager I got with it as a free promtotional item with purchase of the chair from good price world is wonderful, and a much better foot massager and its valued at 499.99!Also as others have mentioned the remote needs some improvements. But once you get it figured out its quite easy, and I called good price world and asked questions, and they were great to answer any questions I had. The chair has 5 auto programs, plus the Yoga feature. For the other 5 programs you have to push auto and a number shows up, but to get to program 5 you have to push it fives times, and the 1 and 4 button lights up, you have no way of knowing this unless you call and ask, which I did. So I made a cheat sheet listing what auto program 1 through 5 is. I also had a problem with being charged for the foot massager at first. I called amazon which was no help at all, they couldn’t even see the promotional item when they pulled up the item on their own website. You need to work on promotional items offered Amazon. So I called good priced world who was very nice and told me once I received the massage chair to let them know and they would credit it back, and they did, and very quickly! They did ship separately with Good Price world shipping the foot massage, which I got within one week, but on the other hand I only give Amazon 1 star for taking 2 weeks and a day to get the massage chair to me. It shipped within a week, but the company they used to get it to me received it on a Monday and I didn’t get it until the following Monday. It set in a warehouse 1 hour away from me, and missed the first Monday truck by a few hours, and they only delivered in my area on Mondays, so it basically took a week longer than it should have.My other complaint as others have mentioned is that the programs only last 15 minutes even though it appears you can go to 30 on the remote. You can extend it by pushing manual-auto-manual before the 15 minutes are up to get it to go another 15 minutes, and your are relaxed and don’t realized the time is almost up, then you have to start over again , and the put the chair all the way back up and start again. Although I knew this was the case when I purchased it, because I read most of the 300 and some reviews. It was kind of a scary purchase considering the 1899.99 price tag. But the other reviews made me feel more confident and I would do it all over again.Now as far as if the chair will hold up without many problems I can’t say that as of yet since I haven’t had it long enough. I sure hope it does. But I do know that Good Price world will bend over backwards to help if the time comes. I Iam 5’1 and the chair fits me well. I even called Good Price World to ask what chair would fit me best for my height, as I was considering the Kahuna 7300, and they told me the LM6800 would fit my size better, and I really appreciated their honesty since the 7300 had a much higher price tag of 2599.00. When I’m reclined all the way back I cant really feel the foot rollers because I’m too short and my feet barely touches them, but that’s another reason why I’m glad I got the free foot massager with it, so I don’t miss getting a good foot massage since I have the extra one!So here are the PRO’S: Great massage chair with lots of options and features for the price. Nice looking chair.CONS: remote needs work. The air massage on the arms I can barely feel on the lowest intensity, and if you are in manual mode you can adjust the intensity, but then its too much for my calves. It would be nice if you could control the air bag intensity for the legs and arms separately. I wish there was more than one chair cushion included that was thinner for times you need a harder massage. Although no one else who has tried it out has complained about it not being a deep enough massage, so the average person would not notice. The remote should have a name listed for the first 5 auto programs instead of just numbers.So all in all, it has some things that could be easier like the remote or features, but am I happy with my purchase….absolutely YES!

HOW I MADE A 1-STAR CHAIR INTO A 5-STAR CHAIRThe purpose of this review is to help senior citizens understand what they are getting into when the want to buy any Massage Chair.I purchased a Zero Gravity Full-Body Kahuna Message Chair Recliner LM6800 on November 3, 2019 and have gone from “Why in the world did I buy this monster to Boy am I glad I have this chair.A few words to set the context. I have gone from a young man who played flag football and unloaded freight cars loaded with 100lb bags to earn my way through college to a weak, wimpy, out of shape CPA who sits most of the time. I have most of the old age medical issues, diabetes, heart, and lung problems. I no longer can lift heavy things and get exhausted quickly.I never have paid a person to assemble anything I purchased in my life until now. So here we go.WARNINGS:• Do not attempt to put this thing together by yourself it just plain weights too much. Purchase the “Professional Assembly from Amazon (separate item you have to click on to purchase). Do this at the time you purchase the chair because then you can get an appointment established. If you wait until the chair is delivered to make an appointment you will be a week or more with this monster in the middle of your room.• Make a space with 2’ to 3’ all the way around the chair where the delivery people can put it when it is delivered. It arrives the size of a small casket. THE DELIVERY PEOPLE WILL JUST PUT IT WHERE YOU TELL THEM TO BUT WILL DO NOTHING ELSE.• When my assembly company called to set up an appointment, I asked about moving the chair and they said any move would cost at least an additional $145 or more. Make sure where you have the shipping company put it you can assemble it right there.• If you purchase this chair, make sure to purchase “SuperSliders” from Amazon. They will tell you the chair comes with rollers on the back of the chair to help you move it. What they don’t tell you that you must have a crane to lift the chair up and it does not move in carpet. My two gorillas assembling the chair thought I was crazy until they tried to move it a few feet. They stopped, but the four large SuperSliders under the frame of the chair and easily moved it into place. If you fail to do this, I hope you have a tribe of older grandchildren living with you to move your chair.This is how I made this chair work for an out of shape wimp. Hopeful it will keep you from have a sore body for weeks.• I tried the four AUTO settings and each on inflected a slightly different set of pain. The third AUTO setting seems to be the least painful.• The chair is incredibly sturdy, so don’t think you can move your body to escape the pain it can inflict on your out of shape body.• I had a sheet of 1.5” to 2” heavy foam laying around. I notice if you flip the large back and seat cushion over that there is a slot the length of the back and about 3” to 6” wide. I cut a piece of foam to fit in this slot, took my “picker upper” tool, grabbed the end and slide it into this slot.• This made it livable but still hard on my out of shape body. I also had a large seat cushion that I had used in my truck. I took this and put it so my back would be next to the cushion. Then I had a memory foam seat cushion that I put to sit on and eureka it turned in an comfortable seat and back massage chair.• The foot rollers will kill your feet. I again took a piece of the foam and put it in the slot where your feet go and then added on old pair of shoe inserts on top of this and that solved the rollers on the feet problem.What I Have Not Been Able to Solve:• Most of the 1-Star complaints has to do with the Air Massage on the legs. The closest I can describe this feature is to pay to have a truck roll over your leg. Having an overzealous nurse take you blood pressure buy pumping it until she runs off the scale, pales in comparison to the pressure this chair puts on your calf I have looked for a way to clamp of the pressure line to limit the pressure to no avail. There is an Intensity Level which is like having a golf cart vs. a truck run over you. I use the lowest intensity, but it does not help much.• I purchased the chair to help keep my feet attached to my leg as I get older, so I have learned to just grin and bear it. I know I can’t increase the circulation in my leg without this feature. If you don’t face this problem just don’t put your feet into the slot and put them on the outside of the chair. This is what my wife does• I tried the Special Yoga setting for about three seconds and realized I was volunteering to enter a mid-evil torture chamber where they stretch you on the rack. No thanks, maybe someday.General Observations:• It really is a wonderful made chair but the control of the pressure stinks.• I found when I could sit in the chair in the reclined position when it was off, and it was comfortable I had the correct amount of padding.• All the item I mentioned above I had in my “junk”, so it did not cost me any additional money, just sore back while trying to figure it out.Don’t pass on this chair. Don’t let me scare you it is a great bargain for the price and it is solid. HAPPY MASSAGINGUPDATE ON 12-23-2019 From the wimpy CPA.I can not say I have removed all the padding except the padding on my spine and I can do all 4 “AUTO” settings. I have learned to endure the pressure bags and my body is conditioned to the chair. I am glad I did not give up on it and sent in back.

After about 1.5 years the liner did become frayed And the motor that makes the mechanism go up and down got caught in it and burned out. I called and they sent me a new liner in new motor assembly. I had to put it in but the service was excellent. I have a working chair again.

Very happy with the chair. Great delivery time.

The whole family loves this chair. Worth the money. Similar to many chairs 2 to 3 times the price.

This massage chair performs extremely well, is manufactured with quality materials, and has had no problems since we bought it (2 months ago). The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it’s just too small for me. Since it was a gift for my wife (she’s under 5′), it’s no problem. But I wanted to just mention for others that this chair is a bit too small for a 6′ man. Even with the extending foot part, I have found that I really have to squeeze in to use it. Fortunately I can just hang my legs over the top of the leg parts and use the back massage part without any problems.
Alice French –
I love my chair. It took a few weeks to get use to the intensity of the food roller. After many massages the foot roller is great. My feet can flex and my calfs are more flexible. I start my morning with the Auto program and then go to Yoga. Later in the day I do the Chiro program. For tune ups I use the Manual setting. My favorite part are the rollers which run all the way around my buttocks to my hamstrings. I am very happy with my purchase.
Tim V –
My wife loves the chair especially for the Yoga Stretching. Unfortunately, I am 5′ 10″ and the chair is not able to stretch me because the legs are simply a spring loaded extension. A rather large oversight by the company or perhaps they are not concerned with selling a product that works for most American men. So if you are taller than 5′ 7″ I would recommend finding a different chair if the Yoga Stretching is high on your reasons to buy a massage chair.
Amazon Customer –
Chair is fantastic… love it!.was nice if had a side packet to store the manual, the harm pressure massager a little wider and a wireless remote…well made and easy to assemble.Thanks…CJ

Chair arrived on time and in good condition. Package fit perfectly through the door with no issues. We put this upstairs and surprisingly wasn’t that difficult to get up there. It took about 30 min to put all the pieces together so not hard at all. We love the look of the chair once we got it all together (looks just as advertised). We have been using it for about 3 weeks now and have had no issues. Everything works great only issue is timer is only set for 15 min (can’t seem to change it) but it is not a deal breaker for me. Also the feet rollers as some have mentioned are a bit rough. However as some have noted adding a little foam reduces the pressure. For the price you can’t beat everything you get with this chair (L-track, 3 zero-g settings, heat, stretching + more). My wife loves the yoga stretching programs. The remote is simple to use. I would definitely recommend this chair to others.Pros:PriceQuietOptionsCons:So far none.

Yes, it already comes with one set of extra foam for the feet but would like another for the calves.

There are a few “negatives” about this chair, but nothing you wouldn’t know upfront by reading the description and a few reviews. Let’s start with a refresher on what those are.The Negatives1. It is heavy. It is a massaging chair, so it is going to be heavy. It does have wheels on the back to allow you to roll it “easily.” Easily it a relative term here, but you can move it around by tipping it back. The only problem I had on this front is that until you have it completely assembled, plugged in and turned on at least once, those wheels are useless because you can’t tip it back onto the wheels while in the shipped position.2. Assembly required. It wasn’t really all that bad just following the instructions. I saw a few complaints in the reviews, so went into it knowing it wasn’t a two second assembly project, but there were no complications requiring a hit on the rating in my opinion. I did skim the online video after I assembled it because I thought I must have missed something, but nope the manual was clear enough for me.3. No cup holder. I knew it didn’t have one, but an add-on from the manufacturer would be nice.4. Lack of Glut support. This one isn’t mine, but a complaint from my partner. Just sitting in the chair, without the massager on, she doesn’t feel like the seat provides any support to her butt. In all fairness I get what she is saying, the massager thingy that moves from your head to your butt needs a groove to run along so there is a few inch “gap” under the center of your buttocks. My hips seem to be supported without a problem even with that gap and as this is my review, no deduction. Your mileage may vary.5. Controller Unlit. If I was going to hit the chair for anything it would be this one and if I could give a 1/2 star deduction I definitely would. The control screen is illuminated but the buttons are not, which make it a little difficult to use in a darkened room. That said, much like the TV remotes of old, you eventually just know where the buttons you use are and this becomes a non-issue. Hence only a 1/2 point deduction.6. Rough on the Feet. It takes a little getting used to the pressure from the rollers hitting the bottom of your feet. The manufacturer seems to recognize this and included pads to place in the feet wells. On the yoga massage I turn off the foot rollers. On the automatic massage I leave them on.The PositivesEverything else. It is a wonderful chair. I’ve watched many friends just fall asleep when trying out the default 15 minute automatic massage. It really helps me relax at night or after a stressful day and was a solid purchase in my opinion.
Berube333 –
Shipping took a little longer than expected. Friendly delivery guy though. & as other reviews stated: the remote needs to be lit or have some type of illumination. 4.5 out 5. I’m a bigger guy and I have no issues. I did have to put extra padding for my lower back, but others that have tried it say there was no issue. Thanks

The Kahuna Massage Chair is something that I should have purchased a long time ago. I bought this chair for myself & My Wife to help relieve sore muscles & other aches & pains that are a part of todays lifestyle. Well, the only problem I have with the chair is not always being able to get in it, because everybody that has tried it absolutely loves it and don’t want to get out of it so I can use it. The first time I used the chair I felt so relaxed that I couldn’t hardly believe it. The next time I actually fell asleep in the chair after it had turned itself off at the end of the massage cycle. This chair massages you from head to toe, & the heated feature really feels great! It is very well built & was really easy to assemble the arms & side air bags, ( everything else already comes pre-assembled. I was able to get the chair through a 28 1/2″ door opening & only had to remove the door itself. If it had come completely assembled with the arms & side air bags already installed it would not fit through my 28 1/2 ” door. The only negative thing is what several other people had mentioned about the foot rollers being pretty harsh on your feet, but this is easily solved by folding a small towel & placing it on top of the foot rollers & this takes the harshness away. I’ve only had it for almost a month & I Love My Kahuna Massage Chair! I give it 5 stars! This massage chair will do more than many chairs that are more than double the price! I think it is well worth the price. You can’t go wrong with the Kahuna Massage Chair! Now, If it were only vacant more often that would be nice, because it’s always being used! I would definitely recommend the Kahuna Massage chair to a friend!

I researched home massage chairs endlessly and purchased this one a couple of months ago. We’re very pleased with the purchase and use it on a daily basis. My husband and I were able to figure out how to assemble it ourselves. He’s blind and assembly isn’t in my wheelhouse, so it isn’t terribly hard.We had an issue with the shoulder bags not inflating but I came on here and got lots of help and miraculously, they just started working on their own.

This massage chair performs extremely well, is manufactured with quality materials, and has had no problems since we bought it (2 months ago). The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it’s just too small for me. Since it was a gift for my wife (she’s under 5′), it’s no problem. But I wanted to just mention for others that this chair is a bit too small for a 6′ man. Even with the extending foot part, I have found that I really have to squeeze in to use it. Fortunately I can just hang my legs over the top of the leg parts and use the back massage part without any problems.

I’ve had 2-massage chairs prior to this purchase ranging 1.5-2x the price of this chair.This chair is superior in quality, craftsmanship and comfort to the other two chairs.With high usage, I’ve seen the parts that typically fail and have rebuilt each chair with warranty parts. Upon arrival I inspected the usual suspects and this chair has superior components. my chairs usually need to be replaced every 3-4 years so it makes sense to buy at mid range price point. I’m very happy to have this chair at the low end price point with a very good warranty.

We liked the chair. Registered warranty at the time of purchase. After 3 years lower part stop working and there is no contact or any information about how to get service or parts. Purchased from good price world. Please help to find dealer or contact info to get it serviced. Thank you

My wife loves the chair especially for the Yoga Stretching. Unfortunately, I am 5′ 10″ and the chair is not able to stretch me because the legs are simply a spring loaded extension. A rather large oversight by the company or perhaps they are not concerned with selling a product that works for most American men. So if you are taller than 5′ 7″ I would recommend finding a different chair if the Yoga Stretching is high on your reasons to buy a massage chair.

We are really enjoying this chair. We have had it for about 2 months. It looks just like the photo once you put it together. There are quite a few parts. The directions are not as clear as they could be, but we were able to get it together in about 30 minutes. We like all of the different massage levels. My one point to make is that the leg area squeezes quite tight. There must be a way to adjust this, but it isn’t clear.

I love this chair. If I were to give it a little bit of a knock, it would be the rollers on the feet. They feel good, but can also be a little painful I think there is a way to shut it off, if I want to do a back to back, but haven’t figured it out yet. But then again, I haven’t spent much time trying….I would most certainly recommend this chair and their customer service is AMAZING! Had a little issue and they couldn’t have been any better and trust me, I am highly critical when it comes to customer service, as I am in sales and hold everyone to my standard. Lastly assembly is a piece of cake. Very very simple…

HOW I MADE A 1-STAR CHAIR INTO A 5-STAR CHAIRThe purpose of this review is to help senior citizens understand what they are getting into when the want to buy any Massage Chair.I purchased a Zero Gravity Full-Body Kahuna Message Chair Recliner LM6800 on November 3, 2019 and have gone from “Why in the world did I buy this monster to Boy am I glad I have this chair.A few words to set the context. I have gone from a young man who played flag football and unloaded freight cars loaded with 100lb bags to earn my way through college to a weak, wimpy, out of shape CPA who sits most of the time. I have most of the old age medical issues, diabetes, heart, and lung problems. I no longer can lift heavy things and get exhausted quickly.I never have paid a person to assemble anything I purchased in my life until now. So here we go.WARNINGS:• Do not attempt to put this thing together by yourself it just plain weights too much. Purchase the “Professional Assembly from Amazon (separate item you have to click on to purchase). Do this at the time you purchase the chair because then you can get an appointment established. If you wait until the chair is delivered to make an appointment you will be a week or more with this monster in the middle of your room.• Make a space with 2’ to 3’ all the way around the chair where the delivery people can put it when it is delivered. It arrives the size of a small casket. THE DELIVERY PEOPLE WILL JUST PUT IT WHERE YOU TELL THEM TO BUT WILL DO NOTHING ELSE.• When my assembly company called to set up an appointment, I asked about moving the chair and they said any move would cost at least an additional $145 or more. Make sure where you have the shipping company put it you can assemble it right there.• If you purchase this chair, make sure to purchase “SuperSliders” from Amazon. They will tell you the chair comes with rollers on the back of the chair to help you move it. What they don’t tell you that you must have a crane to lift the chair up and it does not move in carpet. My two gorillas assembling the chair thought I was crazy until they tried to move it a few feet. They stopped, but the four large SuperSliders under the frame of the chair and easily moved it into place. If you fail to do this, I hope you have a tribe of older grandchildren living with you to move your chair.This is how I made this chair work for an out of shape wimp. Hopeful it will keep you from have a sore body for weeks.• I tried the four AUTO settings and each on inflected a slightly different set of pain. The third AUTO setting seems to be the least painful.• The chair is incredibly sturdy, so don’t think you can move your body to escape the pain it can inflict on your out of shape body.• I had a sheet of 1.5” to 2” heavy foam laying around. I notice if you flip the large back and seat cushion over that there is a slot the length of the back and about 3” to 6” wide. I cut a piece of foam to fit in this slot, took my “picker upper” tool, grabbed the end and slide it into this slot.• This made it livable but still hard on my out of shape body. I also had a large seat cushion that I had used in my truck. I took this and put it so my back would be next to the cushion. Then I had a memory foam seat cushion that I put to sit on and eureka it turned in an comfortable seat and back massage chair.• The foot rollers will kill your feet. I again took a piece of the foam and put it in the slot where your feet go and then added on old pair of shoe inserts on top of this and that solved the rollers on the feet problem.What I Have Not Been Able to Solve:• Most of the 1-Star complaints has to do with the Air Massage on the legs. The closest I can describe this feature is to pay to have a truck roll over your leg. Having an overzealous nurse take you blood pressure buy pumping it until she runs off the scale, pales in comparison to the pressure this chair puts on your calf I have looked for a way to clamp of the pressure line to limit the pressure to no avail. There is an Intensity Level which is like having a golf cart vs. a truck run over you. I use the lowest intensity, but it does not help much.• I purchased the chair to help keep my feet attached to my leg as I get older, so I have learned to just grin and bear it. I know I can’t increase the circulation in my leg without this feature. If you don’t face this problem just don’t put your feet into the slot and put them on the outside of the chair. This is what my wife does• I tried the Special Yoga setting for about three seconds and realized I was volunteering to enter a mid-evil torture chamber where they stretch you on the rack. No thanks, maybe someday.General Observations:• It really is a wonderful made chair but the control of the pressure stinks.• I found when I could sit in the chair in the reclined position when it was off, and it was comfortable I had the correct amount of padding.• All the item I mentioned above I had in my “junk”, so it did not cost me any additional money, just sore back while trying to figure it out.Don’t pass on this chair. Don’t let me scare you it is a great bargain for the price and it is solid. HAPPY MASSAGINGUPDATE ON 12-23-2019 From the wimpy CPA.I can not say I have removed all the padding except the padding on my spine and I can do all 4 “AUTO” settings. I have learned to endure the pressure bags and my body is conditioned to the chair. I am glad I did not give up on it and sent in back.

I purchased a Kahuna massage chair about a year and a half ago and have been very happy with the various massage settings! A problem occurred with the chair recently, in which the rollers would not shut off at the end of the program. I contacted Kahuna support and got a reply within one hour! They suggested that I send a short video of the problem, which I did with my IPad. Within another hour, they said the problem was with the circuit board and sent me a new circuit board with instructions on how to replace it, free of charge! The new board came a week later and replacing it was simple. Now the chair works fine once again! I’m very impressed with the customer support that Kahuna offers and would recommend this chair to anyone looking for a great massage!
