Customer Review: The Bomb!
This is simply the best showerhead we have ever had. It is a snap to install and changing the settings is smooth and easy. There is a flow setting for every need. You get a wonderful shower with no “missing” spots in the water delivery.Having the ability to remove the shower head from the holder makes cleaning the shower a breeze now. It is so inexpensive too when you see what you get for the money. Highly recommend.
Customer Review: Misleading Packaging
I like the 3 main settings, but the package says “6 settings”, which lead me to believe those were 6 different settings. They are counting the in-betweens as other settings. I was pretty disappointed. I looked extensively at different models and at the description of this one, and I couldn’t find those details I was looking for. Some models didn’t even have descriptions at all.

Anyway buyer beware of packaging. Other than that main point, it’s a really nice alternative to the standard head. My kids actually like showers when they can control the stream of water. Also the settings it does have are good standards to have if there are only 3. Click here for more info on this massage product

HoMedics AK-3 Foot Pro Ultra Foot Massager

Sit down. Take off your shoes. Use a big toe to turn on this electric foot massager. (There’s a toe-friendly on/off switch at the bottom.) Use that toe to select the intensity of the foot massage you desire (high or low). Cold feet? Direct the toe to the infrared switch for muscle-relaxing, penetrating heat. Now lean back and run your tired, aching feet over the massager’s vibrating surface while different-size bumps rejuvenate you according to the ancient practice of reflexology (or, if you don’t accept reflexology’s tenets, soothingly stimulate your feet). This durable plastic device measures 14 by 12 inches and is angled so your feet rest comfortably while you’re seated. The massager carries a two-year warranty against defects. –Fred Brack
Customer Review: Great value, long life
I purchased this foot massager four years ago, when it was a slightly different looking machine. I placed it under my desk in my home office, and I’ve used it at least once weekly since then. I’m amazed it’s still working, but it truly is! I’ve spilled a couple mochas on it, several cats have slept on it (one inadvertently turned it on mid-nap and got a big surprise), and I certainly haven’t handled it with any sort of care. Yet, it continues to function beautifully, keeping my sore, arthritic, bunion-infested, little feet quite happy.
Customer Review: Don’t expect something great!!
I find the HoMedics Ak-3 Foot Massager is worth the sale price. Not a big bang for the buck. I agree with other reviewers that the motor is undersized. If you put much weight on it it slows way down. If you want something to really massage your feet go with a product that had rollers or kneaders. Which by the way cost alot more money. Click here for more info on this massage product
