Product Review about the Omega Prestigio Massage Chair

By James Knolan

The Prestigio massage chair is the subject of this product review. The OM-510 is made by the prestigious Omega Massage Corporation. We will submit this massage chair to a test of 5 separate categories. Each category can get between 0 and 20 points. We will look at the following areas for evaluation: Warranty & Customer Service, Comfort/Ergonomics, Ease of Use, Features and Massage Therapy. A maximum score of 100 points is possible in this review process. We now take a look at the OM-510 Prestigio massage chair recliner.

Warranty & Customer Service: You need to take the warranty serious with massage chairs. There are complex moving parts and you can avoid costly future issues. Look at it like an insurance policy. The Prestigio comes with 5 years on the frame, 3 years covered on parts, 90 days of in home service and also 1 year of parts shipping. This is very comprehensive for the mid-tier level. Customer service is competent and responsive. We score it a 19.

Comfort & Ergonomics: The comfort of a massage recliner is important, since you may want to use it just to sit. The OM-510 has a soft padded back pad and comes with a shoulder pillow and a head support pillow. Both of these are detachable. The seat is comfortable and supports the body well. Omega also includes an extra removable back pad. This is used to soften the massage if you are more sensitive. This is important as some users want a massage to be lighter than others. The chair is very well designed ergonomically. The footrest cradles the lower body well. The remote control holder is flexible and can be adjusted easily. Overall Rating for comfort and ergonomics is 17.

Ease of Use: We like the large LCD at the top of the remote and it is also back lit for use in low lighting. The oversize buttons make the remote easy to read and for those with less dexterity, easy to push. We like the top controls the chair back and the lower portion controls the lower body. The change form automatic to manual requires selecting mode and then the massage technique. Overall, it is a good remote and we rate is at a 16 in this category.

Key Features: The two outstanding features of the OM-510 in our minds are the foot massage with the reflexology nodes and the soothing shiatsu massage. Relax your feet after a tiring day with the Prestigio's reflexology foot massage. This applies a firm compression massage over the tops of the feet while reflexology nodes gently push up into the bottom of the feet. Very soothing! The Shiatsu massage is a very invigorating and can penetrate deeply in the lumbar area. We are impressed with the deep tissue potential of this massage. First time users should attach the included softening pad. This is a relieving shiatsu massage recliner. We give it an 18 for its key features.

Massage Therapy: This category is what the culmination of the massage chair is all about--The Massage. The OM-510 comes with 3 excellent automatic massages. This chair hits the lower lumbar better than most luxury level massagers even though it has a shorter stroke length. The shiatsu and kneading massages provide soothing relief to the neck and shoulders. The lower body is invigorated with the air massage system. This uses compression style massage to gently squeeze, hold and release the buttocks, thighs, calves and feet. This is one massage therapy arsenal. We rate the massage therapy a 19 for the OM-510 Prestigio massage chair.

Overall Rating: We give the OM-510 Prestigio an 89/100. We think this is a very impressive and effective massage chair. You will have years of relief and invigoration with the Prestigio. This massage recliner comes in a beautiful design with wood armrests and plush back pad. A designer side table also comes with this mid level massage chair. You get the most comprehensive warranty with the Prestigio from Omega. This massage recliner has it all. - 17273
