Out of the three functions— bubbling, vibration, and heating— only the heating consistently works, and works well. By the fourth use, bubbles were barely forming. The vibrations never made much of a difference to my feet. Instead, the machine just made a loud humming sound when the function was on. As other reviewers have pointed out, the massaging wheels at the base of my unit also didn’t rotate and I found them too uncomfortable to rest my feet on for more than 5 minutes.

The rollers are too hard and not easy to use. I feel like my feet are to small for the rollers and so they hurt more then feel good. Everything else is awesome! the heater works great! the bubbles work great!

Edited: I am updating my review, not because there is anything wrong with the footbath, but I was contacted by the seller that if I left them a review I would receive the newest version of their footpath for free. Naturally that never happened. Still nothing wrong with the footpath, but don't like a dishonest seller. My original review: I read a lot of reviews before purchasing this foot bath. I love it! One of the things that people had said about other footpaths is that they don't keep the water warm enough. Not the case with this one! It heats really well and if you put hot tap water in to start you are ready to go right away. Great way to soak and relax or to get your feet ready for a pedi! :)

I also have the previous version of this foot bath and had reviewed it on Amazon before. This newer model was sent to me at no charge to review. What I like about this version over the previous version: It's much lighter, which is nice when it is heavy with water. It stays on for sixty minutes vs. the older one, which had a timer to set. I think its just easier to not have to guess about how long you will need it, so I like the 60 minute default. It heated up more quickly than the older model, but I always start with warm water to begin with. Things that I wish this one had: a carrying handle and a Fill Line mark, (if there was one, I didn't see it). Also, when I had finished I noticed that it was leaking and there was water on the floor. It was leaking from where the electrical cord comes out from the base. This is likely just a defective unit, but it dropped the rating down for me to 2.5 to 3.

This is a nice looking little foot spa. Unlike any other that I have owned, the heater actually works and is excellent at quickly warming the water. It is a bit less consistent at maintaining temperature though, so adjustments are frequently necessary to raise the temp back to the desired level. Where the design of this utterly fails is in the lid that covers the top front third of the spa. While this contains the controls, it is also supposed to function as a splash guard. It is oddly not removable, and yet the connection to the bottom of the spa is not water tight. This results in water spashing through the gap and all over the place behind the spa. This is not only messy, it is a potential safety issue when plugged in!

Based on reviews I thought this would have been better just so so...the bubbles barely do anything and vibration is more a gimick

This is my first foot massager so I don’t have another one to compare against, but the vibration and bubble strength are both weaker than I had hoped. It does a good job heating but temperature control is not straight forward. When I press the temp button, it reads a certain temperature but then a few minutes later, the temp reading drops a few degrees and stays at the lower temp. I have to press the temp button twice again to increase the temperature. I would have expected for the temperature to be maintained. These temperature changes and differences are not mentioned in the instruction manual. Since this is my first foot spa, I would have also have liked a recommended fill line. I like the massaging wheels but I would have liked some for my heels as well. Also, the vibration function turns off automatically after several minutes. The instruction booklet doesn’t make any mention of this either. These are all somewhat minor annoyances; overall, it is a decent foot spa, and for the most part, I am fairly satisfied with this product, but I don’t think I would buy one as a gift for anyone.

Upon receiving the updated version of the foot massager I had originally bought a few years ago, I was excited. This didn't live up to my own, or the ratings, expectations sadly. You can't turn the heat off on this version, the coldest you can go is 95 degrees fahrenheit, that's a nice Luke warm option. The vibrations and bubbles are some what relaxing and enjoyable, they do give 'spa' vibes. I not a fan of the massage rollers, they are kinda rough and a dull pointy, not sharp! just rough. They don't move automatically like the last version you have to run your feet back and forth. If you're trying to relax after being on your feet all day, I don't wanna have to do the work. The rollers are placed at your toes and heal, you can roll just under your toes on your feet, but you can't get the middle of you're feet, i need that the most. It does give you *just* enough room to move your feet back and forth on the rollers. There isn't a 'max fill' line with this version so of course I made an absolute mess my first time using it, be aware of that before you go filling it with water. If you put to hot of water in it, the massager won't turn on either, it's fine, just a helpful hint. The tea tree salt soak is nice and helpful to relax. All in all a nice version but I feel like is a downgrade from my last model, maybe they could combine the two?

Pros: - Digital temperature control (it can actually heat cold water rather than just maintain heat) - Doesn't leak (after 2.5 weeks of daily use) - it's basically a bucket; no drain like on some other models so no where for it to leak Neutral: - Bubbles and vibration are ok - I mainly use them to move the water so it heats faster / more evenly Cons: - The acupuncture / massage points are painful - this probably varies per person, but I found them to be very uncomfortable to quite painful. I can't even rest my feet comfortably on the built-in points (without or without the rollers). I really considered returning the unit, but liked the heat and didn't want to deal with the hassle of a return (it was close though). I ended up getting a rubber shower mat and cutting pieces to go over the points, and it's still uncomfortable. Unfortunately, all of the units with digital temperature control have some sort of massage attachment. Would someone please make a simple foot sized bucket of water with a digital heater and some way to circulate the water? Please and thank you!
