[Discount At Bottom] Whether you're on your feet all day as part of your job or just like to go for a run after school, we put a lot of weight and pressure on our feet. And they hurt. Which is why a foot massage feels so good and can be so relaxing! The Renpho Foot Massager offers a satisfying massage with its combination of shaitsu and deep kneading, along with optional heat.
Tech expert Dave Taylor of https://www.AskDaveTaylor.com/ tried out the Renpho Electric Foot Massager Machine and found that there were a few quirks - and a missing remote - but that it still offered a very pleasant 15min or 30min foot massage. All explained and demonstrated in this review...

Happy feet make for a happy person

Let's talk about it. Dave Taylor here, and like everyone else
0:13
I get my share of pains and aches and such, and I like a nice massage
0:18
Specifically, I like a nice foot massage. Don't get a lot of those, but enter robots, right
0:25
This is, this sort of behemoth, is the Renfo foot massager, and it's pretty cool
0:33
It works off of reflexology and acupressure. Well, to be fair, there is actually a correlation between spots on your feet and different parts of your body
0:43
but I don't know that this is tuned to any specific one, but it does work with Shiazu and what they call deep kneading
0:50
and that's really where all the actions happening. There's three levels of needing
0:55
There's also air pressure that fills a bladder which pushes your foot
0:58
foot down onto the rollers. There's three levels of that too. And there's also infrared heat
1:04
Takes a little while for the heat to get started, but it is adjustable
1:08
And there's a remote control with some models. The model I got, sadly, doesn't have a remote control
1:14
But fortunately, the whole control strip on the front is easy to access and very easy to understand
1:21
It also features auto shutoff at either 15 or 30 minute intervals
1:25
So right off the bat, let's just switch and give you a close up as I do a little tiny bit of foot massage and then I'll come right back
1:33
All right. So the first thing to notice is that you actually put your feet all the way in
1:37
And I have pretty big feet size 10 and a half and they fit in just fine
1:43
Then power up. And automatically it gives me 15 minutes on low need intensity and low air pressure and heat So let go ahead and up the intensity and up the air intensity Sorry the need intensity and the air intensity
2:08
And that feels really nice, actually. And you can hear, once I stop talking, that it's not very noisy at all
2:22
And it does get my heels, but it doesn't get the back of my heels
2:37
nor is it getting anything on the side. So there's no ankles or anything
2:42
But the top gets sort of pushed by the air intensity. And then the need intensity are the rollers that are under my feet
2:51
and they move around, but not a huge amount. Still, I feel like it covers most all of my bottom foot surface
3:01
And I'm going to go ahead and have the full 15 minutes here, but I know you don't want to watch that
3:06
Totally understand. So let's switch back to me being on camera. Okay, so you've got to see it in action a little bit
3:14
Of course, I can't give you that sort of feel-o-romo, so you would actually be able to feel the foot massage
3:19
but it was pretty nice. I want to show you the control strip pretty quickly
3:24
So you power it up and then you have from the left, you have the timer that's 15 or 30 minutes
3:30
You have the need intensity, low, medium and high. And high is pretty intense
3:36
You might want to work up to that, particularly if you have larger feet. Power
3:40
And then you have the air intensity, which is low, medium and high
3:44
And then you can turn on and off the heat. So all pretty straightforward
3:49
Actually maybe turn it off You probably don need to hear that sound although now you heard what it sounds like All right So here the thing is that it feels really good So you put your feet in and it nice and big I reviewed a previous unit that you had your foot sticking out
4:05
And maybe for small feet, that was good. But for my size foot, I wear a 10 and a half
4:10
My feet are a bit big for that sort of design and it left my heel feeling very lonely
4:15
This one, as you saw, your foot goes all the way in and it works up to a men
4:19
size 12. So this is really nice. You have this like full experience and you have stuff going on all over
4:27
your foot. There's not much on the back of your heel, but definitely all the way through your heel
4:32
all the way along to the front where your toes are. The top is being pushed down. The bottom's
4:38
having the rollers. It is quite a pleasant experience. So I like this design a lot better. It is
4:45
big. This is sort of a big heavy unit. There's no way around that. And it
4:49
would be nice to have the remote control. I didn't get one. There's two different models. So pay close
4:55
attention. The model number that ends with the R is the one that has the remote as far as I can tell
5:01
That would be nice. Without that, you can still manage to function. It's not like you have to do a lot of
5:06
changes. And of course, you can pull your feet out at any time. So if you do it on 30 minutes and you're
5:11
16 minutes in and you're like, that's enough. You can just pull your foot out, touch the button with your toe, and you're good
5:17
Now, let me tell you, a lot of people say that it never gets hot
5:21
And here's what I came up with was the idea of setting it to 30 minutes, turning on the heat
5:27
and then just letting it do its own thing for like 10 minutes, and then putting my feet in
5:33
And at that point, it's actually warmed up and it's quite pleasant. So if you put your feet in and turn on the heat thing, you'll find that it takes a pretty long time to actually heat up
5:43
But there are methods you can use to manage that. So is this as good as having someone sit on the other end of the couch and give me a foot massage by hand No it not And of course that a very intimate act anyway So there a lot of other things going on there too which definitely this can do
6:01
Unless you're really into robots and we, that's a whole other video. Go find something else
6:06
But in terms of just getting a foot massage, this is remarkably pleasant
6:10
I like this one a lot. And I have a feeling that it's going to be quite popular with my kids too, particularly if you've had a
6:17
long day on your feet or you've just done maybe a marathon or you've just been playing volleyball
6:23
or basketball or something 15 or 20 minutes with this is going to make your feet feel a whole
6:27
lot better now only thing left to talk about is the price but before we get to the price if you
6:34
would be so kind as to subscribe to my channel i really appreciate that thank you cool now this
6:40
the renfoe foot massager is 139 dollars at amazon.com And when I checked just a couple of days ago, it turns out that they also have a $10 digital coupon
6:53
So that'll drop the price down even more. And honestly, this is well worth it
6:58
This feels like something that's going to work just fine for years to come
7:02
I obviously have not had a chance to test it for years, so I can't guarantee that
7:06
But this is a nice, well-made unit, and it's pretty strong and solid
7:10
So I like it. And if you're feeling like your feet are sad and lonely and wishing, you know
7:17
wishing that they had a little bit more touch, then this might be a really great choice for you too
7:22
So with that, I am going to get back to that massage, which means I'll catch you in my next video
