Relaxonchair MK-II Plus

Today I will be providing a review of the Relaxonchair MK II Plus. This chair is a full body, zero gravity, Shiatsu massage chair with built-in heat and air massage system.

Controls

Unlike some rival chairs, this chair has a computerized control panel that sits on a stand on the left side of the armrest. While it looks overly technical, its actually really easy to use and understand. Its very easy to read and see without glasses. It comes with 4 different programs and 3 manual techniques and intensities. You get to chose on how fast or strong you want your massage. It has 3 levels of airbag intensity and 3 levels of speed control.

  • Easy to understand and bright display of remote controller tells you exactly what functions are performing during your massage.
  • Controller is small enough for one hand operation with direct one touch command buttons.  There is no complicated menu system to operate.
  • By default, it is set for 15 minutes.  You can increase to 30 minutes of uninterrupted massage

Features

This zero gravity Shiatsu chair is literally one of those chairs that can put you to sleep with its ability to fully recline to a lying position. It has individual airbags that can inflate and deflate to stretch your body and alleviate tension around your neck, shoulder and leg areas. Designed with innovative rollers that can form to the spines natural shape. This chair comes with Smart Body Scan, 3 Stages of Zero Gravity Positions, 4 Automatic Programs, 5 Unique Massage Techniques (Kneading, Tapping, Combo of Kneading & Tapping, Shiatsu, Rolling), Built-in Heat for your back, Air Massage System for your Arm, Legs and Foot, and much more.

The Massage

You can select from one of the four automatic programs or you can individually select the type of massage you’d like. Whether it is a kneading, tapping, combination of the two, shiatsu or rolling, this chair does them all. When in operation, the dual rollers glide from the upper back all the way down the seat to the gluteus muscles, providing the user with a full body massage. The L Track innovation is especially beneficial to users with lower back agony, sore or tight glutes, or those that experience the ill effects of sciatica. It provides a good and relaxing massage to the hip area as well. It has two heating pads which are especially nice for your lower back. The MK-II Plus from Relaxonchair is a terrific product with its zero gravity capability, heating pads and body scan features.

3-Stage Zero Gravity Position

  • Easy one button zero gravity position navigation system.  Press one button to navigate between zero gravity positions.
  • Unlike other massage chairs, 3rd stage zero gravity position gives you closer to 180 degrees of flatness. A big plus for relaxation.
  • Manual position adjustment buttons are to aide for separate movement either to recline or incline your back and foot so you can achieve the exact zero gravity position you want.

Affordability

Considering the benefits you’ll get from the Relaxonchair MK II Plus, it is actually better than most brands with higher price points. It’s small enough to fit in small apartments, but big enough to ensure your comfort. One slight downside is it’s foot rollers, which can be a bit uncomfortable. This can be fixed by wearing an extra pair of socks.
