Conair Pedicure Foot Spa with Bubbles and Pinpoint Massage Attachment

I don't understand why this product gets so many sub-par reviews. I'm fairly picky when it comes to products and I really like this product.There are many reviews that mention how loud the foot spa is. I disagree. There is a small fan at the base of the foot spa, but that is for the bubble ambiance. The "loudness" isn't any louder than a personal-sized fan that goes on a desk. There was one review that mentioned you couldn't even watch TV while using the spa. That review is really exaggerated. I gave my husband a pedicure today and we both watched TV and talked without any issue. If you choose not to buy this product because you are somehow convinced that it is loud, I think you are making a mistake.There are many reviews that mention the heat setting, or lack thereof. No, this foot spa does not have a heater. It doesn’t heat water! We added warm water (equivalent to a bath temperature) and 30 minutes later the water was still warm. My husband says that if the water cooled, he couldn't tell. If you choose not to buy this product because you are convinced somehow that the water won't stay warm, I think you are making a mistake. Because, after all, how long are you planning to soak your feet? More than 45 mins?This foot spa was comfortable for my husband to put his feet in it and then lean back. I think it's important that you take that into consideration when choosing a foot spa. If the backside wall is too high, you will have to sit at a 90 degree angle as the backside wall will press into the back of your ankles. This foot spa has the perfect backside height so you can lean back in a recliner.The foot spa has a foot in each corner. This prevents it from tipping and worked great. My husband would take his foot out and rest his heel on the blue lid and there was no wavering.I took a few photographs with measurements. A man's size 12 foot will fit in this spa just fine (ladies, you know then that all of our feet will fit). My 12inch ruler fit into the bottom, with about an inch more to spare. A man's size 13 would fit, but anything bigger would not be comfortable. The width of the foot spa is about 12 inches.I'm really happy with this product. For the price, I think it is a great product.

After searching, reading and comparing, I finally decided to make my purchase and go with the Conair Foot Spa with Bubbles and Heat.Let me start by saying that this machine does NOT have a setting to control heat or maintain your water hot/warm/lukewarm. So if you're looking for this feature when making your selection this is NOT the foot spa for you.Alright on to the great stuff! First things first, great, fantastic seller! NO problems upon making my transaction, rec'd my beauty within 3 days using the standard shipping. It came in a giant box, well packaged, and delivered! I would def repurchase from this seller again and recommend! Two thumbs up on seller!Secondly, OMG, this machine was great for an at home pedi! I fill it up with hot water, pour in some epsom salt and let my puppies soak in the water, with the fancy bubbles adding some spa like treatment! It isn't obnoxiously noise as others have said by any means. Looking for something affordable and practicable to do your pedi's at home without all that hoopla... this is the one for you! Def recommend! -Leslie

Huh. When I bought this item, it was sold by Amazon, but apparently it's not now. So you can't see the old customer reviews anymore.I'm giving this product 4 stars because it is a good product for the price. If it were more expensive, I would give it less stars, only because it's very basic. The foot baths that are more expensive probably have more bells and whistles, which might be nice to have, but I don't think you really need it. At the end of the day, they're all tubs for water with bubbles. Of course, if money is no object, then get whichever one you want.Mine works fine. If you've never tried a foot bath appliance, and you're considering it, go for it. Even a simple one like this feels soooooooo good. It relaxes your whole body.This one has bubbles and "heat". I put heat in quotations because 1) It doesn't heat up the water itself, the water has to be hot before you put it in, and 2) It's supposed to maintain the water temperature, but I haven't noticed it doing that. The water seems to cool down as quickly as if there were no heating element. But it doesn't matter that much, because you don't typically use it very long. The manual says you should only use it for 10-15 minutes at a time.There are numerous medical conditions for which the use of this product is contraindicated!!! I don't think that fact is listed in the product description on Amazon, but it really should be. The ones mentioned in the manual are: diabetes, tuberculosis, benign or malignant tumors, phlebitis or thrombosis, hemorrhages, open or fresh wounds, ulcerated sores, varicose veins, poor circulation or bruised, discolored, burned, broken, swollen or inflamed skin. OK, a lot of those you could probably figure out on your own, but still. Another obvious one is if you have numbness in your feet. You should consult your doctor before using if you have: a pacemaker, cancer, infection, fracture, persistent pain or if you are pregnant.I hope you liked my review. Serenity now!
