We will present a review and evaluation of the HT 1650 massage recliner by Human Touch. This is a full size recliner that converts into a massage recliner. This is a luxury massage chair with many therapeutic massage functions. This review will go through the main functions of the chair and also present the warranty coverage for your consideration.

The warranty coverage is important to remove risk away from the buyer and keep it with the manufacturer. After all, you the consumer are taking a risk any time you buy a product. The idea of a warranty is to balance out the risk equation. Massage chairs consist of both mechanical, electrical and computer systems. We always recommend going with the top name brands to avoid taking undue risk with these big ticket items. Certainly, one can find cheaper massage chairs, but you are also taking much greater risks.

Let us take a look at the warranty coverage provided by Human Touch for the HT 1650. With this model, you get 5 years on the structure of the chair. They also give you 3 years of parts. Labor is 1 year and field service or in home technician service is provided for 90 Days. This is a luxury level massage recliner and the warranty coverage is pretty good. This warranty is more on par with the top manufacturers in the industry.

This massage chair comes with 4 manual massage functions. The manual massage functions include: rolling, compression, kneading and percussion. There are also 8 automatic programs which include: full body sore muscle relief, sports and back therapy, leg- foot-hip therapy, neck-shoulders relief, after work stretch, morning wake up, night time soothing, and massage demonstration. Each of these automatic massage functions provides for targeted relief of particular areas.

The HT-1650 has a built in body scan function. The body scan detects your acupressure points throughout you back. The computer notes the location of each point and identifies the most important for stimulation. The massage is then adjusted to target those acupressure points to help induce full body relaxation. This is particularly important for the shiatsu style massage, which stimulates your acupressure points during the course of the massage.

Human Touch has designed this massage recliner to look just like a normal recliner. To do that, they have a unique calf massager. The calf massage is actually hidden in the leg rest and can be flipped over. When you flip it over, then the leg wells where you can place your legs is visible. However, when not in use, you can flip it back and it looks like a normal recliner. This enables you to put this massage chair recliner in virtually any room in your house.

If you come home with tired or aching feet, then just flip the leg rest over and enjoy a soothing compression massage. The HT 1650 comes with an air massage system that allows you to target your calves and feet. Just place you feet in the leg rest wells and let the airbags gently or firmly squeeze the tension out of your feet. Relief is just a push of a button away.

One of the impressive features of the HT 1650 is the two sided remote. This unique remote has controls of two of the four sides. This enabled Human Touch to reduce the size of the remote by taking advantage of this remote real estate. With a smaller remote, the remote stand was then removed. In its place is a pocket built into the chair to house the remote control. This is a great design feature which keeps this recliner looking like a recliner–rather than your typical massage chair.
