This is a great deal OP! My previous version from this was from Costco at $60 or so and was recalled.

I bought one and used it a few times. Tried to charge it a year later and it was dead. Read the most recent reviews on this. Same problem with the battery.

Are these any better than a plug in vibrator like the Hitachi wand? For massaging muscles the wand feels more like a slight buzz rather than a jackhammer needed to fix a back knot.

Can we take a moment to talk about the top review on Amazon that includes this line: "Bf said you just don't know what to expect from this thing, either you're being assaulted or abused, and for the back of the thighs, even on the lowest rpm setting, he felt like it was vibrating his anus/sphincter open."

This is a percussion massager like a Theragun. It doesn't vibrate. Very different. If she tries to use this like a vibrator, she's going to be very sorry LMAO

I own a Theragun and it's amazing for intense post workout soreness, sleeping wrong (getting old sucks lol), or just stiff muscles. The massage intensity takes a lot of getting used to because you feel like you're being pulverized/tenderized. But, it unlocks and relaxes muscles very well. I wish these devices were available when I was running marathons. Percussion massagers really do require a second person to get the most out of them - especially for the back regions.

As to this specific device, reviews and specs look good. I paid $300 for my Theragun and it was worth every penny. I'm buying a few as Christmas presents. Even if they do die or exert less power, it's a good intro to the value of a Theragun for $30 imo. It's difficult to justify $300+ to someone else for a "massager".

Oh, and product photos show this being used almost halfway up the neck. Please do NOT do that. I wouldn't even trust the other attachments. It'll be fine at first but you could find yourself in the ER. NIH article here [nih.gov] and you can Google anecdotes by people who didn't read the warnings.

Yes - better. Not a vibrator. Works like a "jackhammer" aka percussion. You'll need a second person to use it effectively on the back. Percussion massagers are amazing at unlocking/relaxing muscle tissue.

I accidentally knicked my right testicle with one of these. I can confirm it's not meant for the groin area.

With Theraguns or any other Drilldo, you just change the attack vector by 90 degrees and you have the very happy setting OMG
