BreoiPalm520e Hand Massager with Heat and Compression, Cordless Electric Hand Massager Gifts for Women & Men

I've had issues with my hands after a long day of work. I spend a lot of time on my phone and laptop so I'm using my hands all day, and all night when I get home.This hand massager really is relaxing and helped me to get rid of any issues I was having with my hands overnight. It's like a really good paid massage. If you are having trouble with your hands, or finding some pain in your hands this is a really really good option in my opinion. I really like the compression and heat that it can do, that's better then just a regular massage in my opinion.The product is really simple to use, you literally just stick your hand in it and press a button, It couldn't be any more simple then that really. Very intuitive, even without the instruction booklet, you can figure it out!!

Opened the box, the charging g wire and block plastic bags were already opened. This told me this was an opened box item. I plugged it in and power light blinked continuously. I could turn it on. Read the instructions it talked about the battery. I could find where the battery compartment was; the instructions had no info on battery compartment. I didn’t think it had a battery. Anyways I was unable to power on so I sent it back.

I gift for my grandfather he absolutely love it ...

First of all, the first machine they sent was most likely a returned item. It came alone in the box with a small black cable that did not fit the machine and the top of the unit was all scuffed. I returned it and Amazon sent out an immediate replacement. The second machine came as shown in the picture I have included. It was in a white cloth like bag in a clear plastic support tray with a white cable and wall adapter and small instruction book. The first one had none of these which tells me either Amazon or the company selling this is trying to sell you a returned, damaged item. Is that why they don't show a picture of all the items included? If you receive a unit like that, immediately return it. You are not paying for a returned unit and should only get a new one. Of course I would have given it one star for that but I decided to give them one more chance to do it right and Amazon did.The second unit was obviously new so next on the list was to try it out. When I wake up in the morning I cannot straighten my fingers without it feeling like they will literally break. I had charged the unit over night so it was ready to go. One annoying thing is that the company (in china) that makes these includes an instruction book that is only 4 inches by 3 inches big. I am thinking that most people who use this have arthritis and are therefore older. I had to put magnifiers on to read it. Minor problem but still annoying. The machine is set up on a default mode of 5 minutes, low to high air pressure cycling and high heat. That is probably adequate for most people. I however ended up wanting only high pressure, which felt very nice. Don't worry, it won't get high enough to damage your hands. The heat only happens in the palm area and the highest setting is about right but I wish it was in the fingers too. I solved that by first putting my hand all the way in (push it in till your fingers almost reach the end hole and the bump is in the center of your palm) and then doing a second cycle by pulling my hand back until my fingers rested over the palm bump. Doing it that way I got both my palm and fingers heated and compressed nicely. I would recommend sitting with your hand in the unit and reading the instructions while experimenting with the buttons till you understand all the options you can do. Otherwise, the default setting should be adequate for most people. The only other reasons I can see that people would give only a 1 or 2 star for this is that there will always be people who find something to complain about. It works as advertised and feels good to loosen up your hands if they ache. Now that said, like any heat, massage (squeezing) done on any arthritic joint, it only lasts as long as the heat lasts. But take advantage of the heat and do some arthritis hand exercises while your hands are warm. The exercises will help our hands stay limber longer than just doing the heat and nothing else. I am totally happy with this unit so far. Now we will see how long this "Made in China" product lasts.

I used once for 15 minutes on each hand. The following day it wouldn’t work…and yes it was fully charged. Sadly I’m not sure if it would make a difference or not. I returned for refund.
