Review about the Sanyo DR7700K Massage Chair Recliner

By Steve Esquire

This review will examine the best massage chair produced by Sanyo. That is the Sanyo HEC-DR7700K massage chair recliner. Sanyo is known for many of their advanced electronics and this massage chair has quite a few. We will present the more interesting features and functions. Here is our evaluation of the Sanyo DR7700K massage chair recliner.

We always feel it is important to first discuss the warranty coverage for a massage chair. Massage chairs are rather complex machines with both mechanical and electrical systems. In any complex manufactured product problems can occur. You want to make sure that you have sufficient coverage to take care of potential issues down the road.

With that said, let us take a look at the warranty coverage offered by Sanyo for the HEC DR7700K massage chair. Sanyo offers the same warranty coverage for all its massage chairs. They cover the roller mechanism for 3 years, 1 year labor, 1 year parts and 1 year in home technician service. The parts and labor are quite short for a high end luxury massage chair. The 1 year in home service is very good.

On to the features of the DR-7700. The DR 7700 is a zero gravity massage chair. What is zero gravity? This is a position used by NASA astronauts when they are being shot to space in a rocket. The zero gravity position is ground to spread the weight of the individual across their back which relieves the pressure off the spine. This is a reclined position with the chair back coming down.

An interesting electronic feature is known as the physical shape sensor. The physical shape sensor will monitor the position of your body. As you move, then the physical shape sensor checks your body position. This new information is relayed to the computer and the massage program is altered to account for your new position.

One of the electronic marvels contained in the DR 7700 is the Stiffness detector. The stiffness detector is a derivative of lie detector technology. It reads your pulse rate and your perspiration level. It senses changes in these two parameters and then correlates where tension and stiffness may reside in your body. The massage is then tailored to relieve these areas.

Sanyo has created four excellent automatic massage programs. The DR-7700 operates these automatic programs with the touch of a button. You can select from Recovery, Relax, Stiffness and Fine. Recovery, for instance, is geared to relieving the body after strenuous exercise. Each auto program has a particular need it is trying to address.

Sanyo has built the foot wells with the capability to apply heat to the feet. The DR7700 comes with these feet heaters to warm up the bottom of your feet. This helps to reduce swelling and increase blood flow during the foot massage.

One of the more effective manual massages included in the Sanyo DR7700K massage chair is the Grip massage. The Grip massage actually works the top of the shoulders. Sanyo has specially designed rollers called GK rollers that have special capabilities to reach over the top of the shoulder for a soothing massage.

If you are looking at a high end luxury massage chair, then check out the Sanyo HEC-DR7700. This massage chair has some of the most advanced electronic features such as the physical shape sensor and the stiffness detector. You also get an arsenal of relieving, soothing massages with both automatic and manual capabilities. The warranty for parts and labor is a bit light and you should enquire about an extended warranty. Overall, this is an effective massage chair delivering relief for your aches and pains. - 17607
