Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I've owned both this and the Sharper Image one. This one performs better overall, but the Sharper Image has 6-speeds vs 3-speeds of this one. I found more speeds to be better.
I felt the Sharper Image one stalls more at low speeds even though it claims to prevent that. Returned it because those stalls would make the unit skip/studder and it can sometimes hurt.
On the Bondir, some quality control issues and I did not like how the extension is made of metal. And because it is metal, it cross-threaded on me and that made me return it.
IMO, the recalled Massimo was the best and it was cheaper. Should have kept it and risked fire.

Add me to the curious - how does this compare to sharper image one for $65. Besides this one having a higher starting price.
Umm because anything not sharper image is better than anything that is sharper image…..?

I was inactive for a good while. When I started getting active again this helped me tremendously. I didn't use it last night after working out and I was in pain. I normally always use it after I work out and then I sleep without any real pain issues (from working out). So I think it's pretty invaluable. I've never used the higher end stuff like Theragun etc. But this does a really good job. I did buy something that was around the same price from Walmart and it was terrible (it was underpowered and would randomly stall, this has three intensity levels and provides a good amount of power/pressure on the higher settings). So I definitely recommend this.

Can these be found in-store? Specifically, downtown San Francisco or Daly City?

Can't speak for this unit, but I saw the Sharper Image one in the warehouse last week and picked it up. Prior to this, I had one of the cheap Chinese knock-off ones you find all over Amazon for $30. The biggest difference I noticed was the motor, which was significantly more powerful. I'm 6'3 225lbs and relatively muscular, so I have to apply a good amount of pressure when using these to get much benefit. The motor on the cheap one will struggle and slow down significantly. Over the course of a few months of weekly use, it has gradually sounded worse and worse. While I've only had the Sharper Image unit for less than a week, the motor will noticeably compensate when I apply more pressure so that it doesn't slow down. There are some other smaller, less noticeable differences like the attachments being easier to remove and replace as well.

I'm considering trying this one out as the extension handle could come in handy.

I bought this the last time it was on sale, it made extremely squeaky noises while I was using it, also the rubber bottom part that covers the charging port continually kept falling off. I returned it and bought the sharper image one. So far it's been working better for me, more silent and the overall feel is better. Plus it comes with a nice case that holds all attachments well. No complaints yet

I couldn't find any comparison online of the sharper image vs this Bondir. On Costco website if you go to the Sharper Image reviews and then search for Bondir nothing comes up. If you go to Bondir reviews and search Sharper Imaged you get about 10 reviews. 8 out of the 10 said the Bondir was a better unit. Saying it was more powerful, better battery life, and extension handle helped. 2 people like the sharper image better both quoting this Bondir unit was too loud and the Sharper Image is whisper quiet.

Doesn't really help much but thats all I could find. Plus Sharper Image is out of stock as of now.
There are tons at the store I visit in WI, have you tried/ checked in store?

Anything you buy from Costco they will stand behind for years even if the warranty is expired. Easy decision

The last massager I purchased from Costco was recalled. I'm not ready to buy a cheap unit again.

Many of my families households have this exact model. Paid about $90 for them. Highly recommend. Have not tried others.

I actually like the $65.99 (after $15 sale) Sharper Image one. Second comment in this thread say this one is better. I'm so confused. I ordered 2 of these to find out. I've been making way too many returns this year because of confusion similar to this.

Then about the ~5 comment down said Massimo is the best of the cheap massagers. So I googled that and there is a recall on that one (early 2021).

Sometimes research gets you know where.

Again, I like the sharper image, and have no complaints. Even the way they did the case was premium. Has a nice case, and open the case it has a sub-case form the tips.

I ordered 2 of the Bondir's to compare. Would like to get a total of 4. 1 me, 1 girlfriend, and to relativew. This is a cyber deal so If I end up likeing this Bondir better, I will have wished I ordered two more tonight. It never ends. Consiering ordering two more and just taking what I don't want back. All but one will be unopened.

Ordered one of these to compare to the sharper image one I picked up in store. I like that this has a handle extension and uses usb-c charging compared to a regular brick ac adapter of the sharper image. If it is anywhere similar in quality to the sharper image I have, I'm keeping the R2 because of the extension handle and convenience of usb-c charging.

Motor stalling wise, the sharper image one definitely has a beefier motor and "nicer feel" than the a random cheap one from amazon that a friend of mine has. I could feel the motor on the amazon one stall/slow at lower powers when I was pressing hard while the sharper image kept going. I'm only a 165 lb thin build guy though and could never see myself pressing hard enough to start stalling out the sharper image.
