The Best Massage Chairs Under $2,000

If you’ve spent any time searching for your perfect massage chair, you’ve likely seen prices that vary widely: There’s a product over here for $250, while this model over here goes for more than $12,000! To the untrained eye, there might not appear to be that much difference between the two, so what drives the price tag so high on some massage chair models? The answer typically lies with quality. 

Yes, a higher price tag can imply more bells and whistles — think intelligent body scanning, hydromassage or dozens of unique automatic programs — but it also typically signifies higher quality parts that won’t break down as quickly as a cheaper product’s might. Premium features can still be had for under $2,000 (before discounts), with no difference in the level of quality. However, any massage chair with a full price under $800 should be subject to scrutiny.

When you encounter a massage chair that retails for under $800 it’s important to do your homework before you purchase. Cheaper products usually mean cheaper parts, which can result in shorter product lifespans, patchy customer service and repairs, and (especially in the case of products related to fitness and well-being) negative effects on the user’s health. Search for reviews of a product before buying; it’s best to find reviews on several different platforms, since many companies will only post the positive reviews on their own website. 

A quality massage chair is not a cheap product to make — therefore, its price tag should reflect the cost and effort that went into its construction. If you find a massage chair with a $500 price tag, chances are it’s been made with cheap, flimsy parts that will not tolerate regular use. And that’s a recipe for a headache, physically and financially.
