It’s a fact, massage chairs are one of the most expensive health care products you can buy for your family. And chairs like Inada Sogno Dreamwave are not in reach of everyone. But the question is: do cheap massage chairs work? And are they really worth the investment? To be honest, I don’t think investing in a $5000+ today is a good decision, because there are so many brands nowadays that are offering massage chairs at affordable prices with almost the same features. But just because the market is too much crowded with new products. I’m writing this guide to share this amazing collection of cheap massage chairs that have the best high-end features and durability. Now while writing this guide, I was confused what to consider as cheap. Since many people would consider $1500 as cheap, while others might be looking for something below $500. So I wrote this guide in the following format: 1 ) Best Massage Chair Under $2000: Kahuna Lm600 2) Best Massage Chair Under $1500: Ideal massage chair
3) Best Massage Chair Under $1000: Bestmassage ec-06c, ReAct Shiatsu Massage Chair 4) Best Massage Chair Under $500: iJoy Active 2.0 Massage Chair The lm6800 is the best selling product in kahuna’s inventory.

11) Customizable massage speed and intensity Click Here To Check Price, Reviews and Discounts on this Chair The ideal massage chair is yet another great massage chair at a low budget. This chair comes with the S-track roller system, which are not as good as the L-track. But still can massage you to the deepest ends of your tailbone. It supports heat therapy for the lumbar region. The chair supports kneading balls, which are kind of a cheap replacement for the foot rollers. Basically, these balls don’t move back and forth like normal rollers, but are pushed into your feet for a more enjoyable foot massage experience. It also supports a computerized body scan that helps deliver a more personalized massage. But zero gravity is not supported by this chair. Here is a list of all the features the chair has: 1 ) S-track massage robot 6) Adjustable Massage Speed and Duration 7) Roller Caster for improved mobility CLick here to check price, reviews and possible discounts
The Bm ec-06c is the best selling massage chair on Amazon. There are only a few full body massage chairs available at this price. And out of those, this one stands out. The bm ec-06c is one of the few chairs that specifically target tsubo points around the neck area to provide instant relaxation. These massage rollers cannot only target the neck, but their reach extends to the tailbone. This chair features two sets of heating modules for heat therapy. One in the lumbar region and one for the feet. The chair also supports adjustable massage intensity. 2) Heat therapy for lumbar and feet 3) Tsubo point targetted massage 4) Shiatsu specialized massage therapy 7) Roller casters for improved mobilty ReAct shiatsu massage chair is another chair that grabs attention. The most exlusive thing you get with this chair is obviously the looks. It’s a gorgeous looking massage chair. You can’t even tell if it’s not a normal chair. The best thing I love about this chair is that it supports L-track massage rollers.
Which literally no chair in this price is currently offering. You also get the lumbar heating modules. Though, one thing that is not so good about the chair is that it’s not a full body massage chair. Yup, there is a price that you have to pay for the looks. With this massage chair, you won’t get the foot, arm and shoulder massager. So if you’re someone who is more into aesthetics, and is ready to compromise on the foot and arm massager for a cheap price. Then this is the chair to get. 2 ) Cheapest chair supporting l-track 3) 2 Automatic massage programs 4) heat therapy for back pain 5) Spot massage targets specific body parts The iJoy Active 2.0 is a really basic, but compact massage chair. It comes with 3 pre-set programs that can also be customized according to individual needs. The chair does have massage rollers for the back which can also be combined with vibration massage. Moreover, the chair supports width adjustment to manually change the focus onto any part that you feel needs more relief.
As a whole, the chair is surely not crowded with features. But its something that you can’t really complaint at this price. 2) 3 Automatic Massage Programs 5) Ideal for small places 6) 45 Degree recline supported CLick here to check price, reviews and possible discountsMany people are understandably hesitant before buying this chair from Inada. Although it has been regarded as the best money can buy, it also comes with a rather hefty price tag. So far after owning it for a while I have my obvious compliments and grips about it. The chair has held up very well but there are a few things I would fix which I detailed below. One of the main reasons I bought this chair was for the 3-year limited warranty for parts and labor. With how much this chair costs one would expect a decent warranty to cover it which this one does. I have not had any issues with the chair as of yet but if I do I know the company will help rectify the issue in no time. Customer service has been superb so far
– Air Cells: 100 – Sitting Upright: 36.5 x 54.7 x 47.6″ – Completely Reclined: 38.2 x 82.7 x 29.9″ – Maximum Recline: 170-degrees – Manual Massage Type(s): 18 typesObviously this is the best part! The chair offers a deep massage without being too invasive. If you’ve ever sat in one of those massage chairs in a mall that costs a lot of money you will understand where I am coming from. This chair gives a powerful massage without being too strong. I really enjoyed the preset full body massage which hits each area of the body. It is great to do in the morning before you head off to work (as well as when you come home!)The leather chair is plush and comfortable. It doesn’t seem to flatten out over time as most type of chairs like this do. It doesn’t seem to hold odours at all which is a big plus. I have had regular leather armchairs that tend to hold any odours regardless of what it is, so I am pleased too see (smell) this is not the case.I was given 4 different choices of colors for the chair which include black leather, dark brown leather, creme leather and red leather.
I think most, including myself, have chosen the black leather model since it is a neutral color for any room. However I really liked the red leather which gave a more modern feel for those who like that type of decor.Being a parent with two kids I am glad this chair has a way to prevent them from operating the chair. My youngest likes to sit in the chair but I would not recommend they get to use the chair as it is designed for adults. The company includes a child safety key and lock preventing them from operating the chair. – Conforms to your body type. This feature is VERY important since dependent on if your a larger framed man or maybe a smaller framed woman you want a chair that will conform to you. I knew not to buy the type of chair that is a “one size fits all” from past experiences. I’ve bought my share of massagers that you put over a chair and velcro them down. I can’t stress the importance of having an actual chair that confirms to your body type enough.It is quite steep for the average buyer.
However when you think how much a massage costs at a parlour then over time it can appear somewhat economical. Especially if the whole family is getting some use out of it regularly. – The foot rests. If you have this chair in a room with carpet, dust can collect overtime in the foot rests so expect to wipe them down every once in a while. I have found that wearing socks helps keep them cleaner in the long run.On a scale of 1-10 I would rate it a 5. I would imagine it would have been a little more quiet but since it has so many motors, it does make sense that some noise is created. All in all If you are are in the market for the ultimate massage chair then look no further than the Sogno Dreamwave. Nothing else can compare to it’s advanced and effective massage. Yes, it is rather pricey, but in this case you really get what you pay for. I have not had any issues as of yet and will make sure to update this review if I do. Otherwise I foresee myself enjoying this chair for many years.
