Conair Cord Reel Massaging Jet Footbath

This was an impulse buy at Fry's. I bought it for $31.00 (a return?). I didn't expect much out of this unit and I was curious to find out if it's any good. I read the reviews here and noticed no body was happy with it. It's true that it doesn't heat the water or have moving massaging pieces. When you buy a unit like this, you have to find out who does the "massaging", you or the unit!? What I do to get the most out of this is to put very hot water in the unit to the top marker. I mean put real hot water (not boiling) and turn on the jets (and bubbles if you're going to use that) without putting your feet in. You will do this for two reasons. Get the unit to absorb the extra heat so it warms up and so that the water cools down to a good level. You don't want to start with warm water because it will cool down quickly. Start with very hot so that the cool parts in the unit warm up and you start with a good temperature. I remove the fixed rollers because I don't find them useful. ... Read more

The problem mentioned by other reviewers are all true. "Heating" is practically non-existent. I am very disappointed at this. I also found that the water splashes out a lot. Although I kept the initial water level to that instructed on the machine, after keeping the jet on for about ten minutes, half of the water had splashed out of the bath. I am going to see if I can return this tomorrow.

If you just want somthing that bubbles around your feet ok, If you are looking to relax your tired feet this aint it!!!! I was disappointed when I came home from work and opened it up I used it once and put it back in box......Waste of MONEY!!!

This model is not particularly powerful (jet pressure) in comparison to an older model by Conair (which is no longer available). The water does not 'heat' either. All in all, I was very disappointed in the unit.

Was very dissapointed in this product. Recieved as a Christmas gift, not only does it not heat up water, it dosnt keep the warm water you put in warm for more then 4 mins! In no time your feet are freezing! A plastic pail would be better!
