I am very happy that I ignored the bad review (mostly because it belonged to a different product and apparently they are not as identical as the reviewer imagined
) I don’t see any problems with the materials, used the massager 3 times last night with very pleasant results.
The shiatsu thing does a pretty good job on my neck (so it can move again), the heat is strong enough and vibration puts me to sleep. What else do you expect from a $30 gadget? I am buying one for my uncle Leonid.
P.S. Try it upside down – you might like it.

I purchased this product despite the only other review here (by M. Kaplan) and I am SO GLAD I did. I tried the demo unit in “Bed Bath and Beyond”, bought it (on sale for $14.99) and in three words…I love it! I have a pinched nerve in my neck and I can’t begin to tell you what a relief it was to find this product. I have several other HoMedic products and this lives up to the same quality I’ve come to expect from this company.
Unlike the other negative review, I have experienced no redness on my neck after using it for up to 30 minutes at a time. A Shiatsu massage should be tempered by the amount of pressure applied to the unit, and I suspect that if too much pressure is applied, this might be the problem with the other reviewer. But for me, it seems just right.
The amount of heat generated by the NMS-350 seems just right. If it were less, it wouldn’t be sufficient (for me) and it certainly doesn’t seem like too much heat. This is another reason I think the other reviewer had a defective unit and might consider trying a different one.
Overall, I’m very happy with this neck massager and would highly recommend it.

I get extremely tight knots in the back of my neck which make my neck painful to move. I’ve only had this thing for a couple of days and I feel better already. I often use it while watching TV or reading. BTW, anyone who complains about the fact that this massager is “too rough” doesn’t understand the principals behind Shiatsu massage. I used to live in Japan and went for Shiatsu all the time. It is supposed to be a tad bit uncomfortable. It is working the knots out! I’ve been pulling this massager into my neck as much as I can handle. I hope that it lasts for a long time.

I was experiencing some real neck discomfort and tension that had become fairly intolerable.
I scanned all the neck massage products online and bought this one.
While not awful, I had some specific issues with it.
1) Its heavy and bulky. It did not want to stay put around my neck when I was sitting up and would slide off my neck and down my back. It does have hand holds on each side, so i guess you could hang on to it to keep it around your neck, but what’s the point of that?
2) The only way to feel any real kneading sensation is if you do as mentioned above, and hold on to each side at the hand holds, and then pull down on it so it’s very snug against your neck. I found this impossible to do for long. I wanted to relax, not work to relax.
3) The heat is pretty effective and I did like that about it. It almost got too hot afer a while.
4) It’s not that quiet. I didn’t expect it to be, but after getting it and then trying to listen to tv or the radio, it did tend to drown out the normal level I usually have my tv on.
It just did not provide what I was looking for. I’m sending it back.

I had hoped for a better massage functionality. I mean, it kind of does it’s job, but the textile material can be annoying on your skin. Plus you have to move the whole thing around and hold it constantly in place in order to get the results you are looking for. Overall this was quite a waste of money for me, I do not use it as often as I expected to.
