There are many massage chair manufacturer’s in the world today, many of them make high quality, affordable chairs, but one of the newer companies that has hit the market strong is Repose. Let’s take a look at this recent company, what has made them successful, and what they have to offer.
Repose Corporation is one of the newest entertainment and massage chair companies in the industry today. Repose was founded in 2004 by Kerry Lee, who was coming from a previous successful company he had started in 1997 called National Lighting, which he had led to be one of the leading manufacturers in the furniture industry. So Lee knew how the furniture industry worked, but he also really liked the electronics industry. Massage chairs filled both categories and he saw it as a growing industry that had a need. A need to offer a massage chair that was an alternative to the cold plastic massage chairs that were currently on the market. Repose was one of the first companies to offer a massage chair that not only delivered a great, deep tissue massage, but also looked good. A chair that you would happily put in your living room instead of stashing it away in a back room.
Repose believes in having complete control over their products, both design and quality. One way this is done is by manufacturing all of their products in their own factories, and not contracted out to some mystery factory in China.
Repose offers five different massage chairs. They are:
The R-100 is its entry level chair which offers deep tissue massage with kneading and knocking for the back and air bag massage for your legs. It comes with three preprogrammed massages. The R-300 is the next step up and is sometimes referred to as the big brother to the R-100. It offers everything the R-100 offers plus vibration and roll massage. It also has an LCD remote control. One of the really nice things about this chair is that it is a bit larger than many other massage chairs, making it ideal for anyone over 5’7″. The R-500 is called Repose’s super massage chair. Besides great massage functions, it looks good. It comes in a beautiful leather with wood armrests. For features, take everything the R-300 offers and add a total of four preprogramed cycles, plus you can personally control the massages for intensity, location and massage type. It also offers foot massage, the leather cover is removable for easy washing, the chair comes on wheels for easy moving, and the chair can be folded up for easy storage. R-600 can give you a full body massage, including your thighs and buttocks. But even cooler is that this massage chair has sensors built in that scan your body to determine the best massage for you. It also has an integrated MP3 player and will synchronize your massage with the music. This massage chair also has heat added to the lower back and foot massage area. Finally, the ultimate massage chair offered by Repose is the super deluxe R-700. Besides having the cool features of the R-600, it also has a 3D massage mechanism meaning it has back rollers that adjusts to fit your body’s contour to give you the most effective massage possible. Another advanced feature is the sensors in the leg massager. These sensors detect your leg length and automatically adjust to fit you best.
As you can tell, Repose has hit the massage chair market really strong. And looking at what they have to offer, I would say that they are here to stay.
