Not a massager,,, it simply vibrates. The lumbar support will work if you are about 5 feet tall.... any taller and it's too low. Save your money!

I thought the seats would be covered but they're not, more like a mesh metal, I have to put a towel on it to make it comfortable. Also it is too short and the length should be made longer. It does a decent job for awhile, but nothing i would use on a consistent basis. Gave up on buying anything because Tony does not really check out the quality of these things anymore. Would not really recommend

I bought this cushion because I was always either too hot or too cold at work. They blast us with the AC in the summer and really crank the heat during the winter. Now that I have my TempRite cushion I'll be able to warm up or cool down whenever I need to. I've used it a few times already and it works like a charm. I even took home the jacket I usually kept at work becuase my TempRite cushion keeps me just warm enough. I can't wait to use it this winter when they turn the heat way up. Dealing with the winter heat will be no sweat...anymore!

WOW - you feel your butt and back cooling off IMMEDIATELY!! Works WAY faster than my car air conditioner. It's been great this summer - look forward to the heat this winter. Great back support. The seat is firm, but you couldn't have the air flow if it wasn't. Great product, Tony!!

All this does is vibrate. There is no massage feature whatsoever. The cooling and heating features, like the massage component are also almost non-existent. HoMedics and Tony misrepresented this product and that really irks me as a consumer.

I am disappointed with this item. The concept of air/heat/massage is great BUT, the cushion you sit on is very uncomfortable. You sit on hard nubs sort of things and uncomfortable. The air cooling and heat feature works well. The massage part, even on high, isn't sufficient. Sorry Tony, this one isn't a keeper have to return it.

VERY uncomfortable, not a good massage! Settings are just for upper and mid back! No low back setting! SO many people have low back problems too! Hard as a rock and terrible. Going back today!

If you like sitting on hard prong plastic this is the one for you. Sorry Tony! I will have to send this one back. Saw another similar one for $110 in a magazine and glad I tried yours first, cause I am sure it is the same kind of product. Cooling with the fan when it is 100 degrees in your car doesn't sound like it would cool you either. Sorry. Dissappointed!

HoMedics Massage Cushion appears to be well made and that is the best I can say. When I am looking for a "massage" I don't want something that is uncomfortable to sit on and has a weak vibration for the massage.

Seat has round HARD things covering the part you sit on VERY UNcomfortable AND the heat doesn't come out of the bottom part of the seat as it says on the box on EITHER of the 2 units I purchased.
The cooling, heat from the lumbar part & lumbar support area all fine -
FIX the heat to come out of the seat part as they say it does --- CUSHION the seat --- QUITE the massage noise & this would be an AWESOME, FABULOUS product

Amazingly for the price you get cool air, heat, and a vibrate type massage. I bought this for the air blowing feature which my husband will use while working. The air blows just in the right spots where he tends to get hot sitting at the driver's wheel on long hauls. Good & useful product for the money!

The product is well made and functions as advertised. However, the rigid lower back section is not comfortable. That might be because of my scoliosis (which is why I got the cushion). I thought it would help with my office chair. A coworker sat on it and he thought it was comfortable. It will help if you have a chair with a high back as my office chair has a regular back so I didn't get the benefit of the top part of the massage cushion since you have to be able to lean against it.
