Will this work on a Lazy Boy? The current controler does lift/heat/massage. All I want is lift.

It works on a lazy boy, it goes up/down. no massage/nor heat. Just up and down.

If you have a mandrel for it, but I think you will have a tough time controlling the pad with a drill. I personally would buy a buffing machine.

If you find out how, let me know, please. I've kept a pampered chef opener that doesn't work but does have a lifter. I'd like to toss it. I did have the instructions. Maybe I skipped that part.

HiYou can :-). I use both features or just one of them. So yes you can just turn the heat on and not use the massage feature :-)

Aloha Lana...This chair only vibrates. For a little money more you can buy an IJOY massage chair that will do what you want as I have it also and it rolls up and down the spine and digs in to the scap areas. It is a true massage chair and is best priceded at Amazon and you can also get them at Costco too and try one out there. Best to find a dealer and go sit for a while and destress in the showroom! Good luck

Hello,There are two massage motors. One for the Lumbar and one for the thighs. There are no pre-programmed modes. On the remote, it is either On/Off.Thanks

Hi Aug. I have to say that I really like my massager (MCS-510H). My principal problem is mid-back, however---it does just what I need there. For lower back it will do the same thing---that is, sort of roll around the area---not just up & down. But that area is more boney and the massage just doesn't go deep enough to do a really good job. That said, I don't think any of the chair-style massagers will do better. One thing I really do appreciate is its ability to concentrate on one area (low, for instance)---and then you can also "spot" massage by pressing up or down buttons to put it right where you need it. All in all, I think its damn good for the price. Tom

Even though the scape is basically the same base as the one sleep number sells the controller will not work.you can use the mattress it will just have its own remote

By "muscle stimulator" you mean will it stimulate the muscles to grow larger. No, definitely not. This is a pain relieving massager.

Yes, I found some success with this. You have to position the the seat cushion so one of the massage units is up against the lower back. The heat function is very good and sometimes I have to shut off the heat because it gets too hot. I leave the massage on constantly while I'm in the car.

You really do need some one there---How frail is Mom?. I'm not joking. My husband and I went through numerous Maxi rub's. Not because they are bad---but it's the greatest and best gift I ever gave my construction worker husband. We used to do each others backs every night for 1/2 an hour each and it really did the greatest number on our backs. He's passed now and I really realize what a great deal of help that massager was doing for both of us. I miss him---and our 1/2 therapy with that maxi. It would be awkward if it was for your Mom to do on her own. If she had a lower back problem she might be able to "prop" it in a chair and lean against it. If she's elderly it might be a problem. I'm 64 and I bought myself a "Shiatsue" massager (sp). If your Mom has siatica (sp) that might be a problem too. Some women who have Calcium deficiancy in their bones might find this uncomfortable. There are cheap models under a 100.00 out there but they aren't much good---the one that's about 125.00 or so is great---My boss borrowed it and 4 friends---I had to threaten one of those to give it back. They are like a matte that you sit on with a back. The good ones have metal or hard plastic balls in the back part that go up and down---mine can go side to side along the spine---you can also use the remote to hit the button to make it stay in one spot. I love mine---If any of this is too much sometimes a plain old heating pad works Let me know if you need more help-I've had back problems my whole life with a handicap child

sorry i am unable to help you as i use mine as a lifter control on the back of a truck

Yes. The control is a rocker switch - off at center. Click it one way, the heads spin - one clockwise, the other counter-clockwise. Click it the other way, both heads switch direction. So essentially, in one direction it's like thumbs pushing UP on either side of your spine, in the reverse direction they push DOWN your spine. Heat comes on in one direction, is off in the other direction. I love it.

I was able to adapt this to a Lazy Boy recliner and am very happy with the result. I did have to add some structure to fit to the legs and to the switvel and was careful to place for center of gravity. I did this for my son and he is happy with the result.

My son uses this massager often, but never leaves it on the chair to just sit on. It is not designed for that. A great massager he's gotten a lot of relief from it. I cannot address how it would be for someone tall, since my son is 5 ft 8 inches and it covers his back quite well.

It worked as a replacement for my Lazy Boy (they wanted over $300.00 to replace). The valve worked with the pump from Lazy Boy. It fits into the box spring. I can only tell you that it works with a Lazy Boy. I have been very satified with the price and quality.

Yes, it should be fine for you. My husband is 6"0, and 310 lbs, with a really big upper body. Thumper works great for him. There is a sliding button to control speed. 5 just means it will go fast. If someone is holding the massager for you, then they just push a touch harder, but even a little will get in and work your muscles very well. sometimes I even massage my husband's back once he falls asleep, and he wakes up feeling great. The pressure of my hand on the back of the thumper is enough even when I'm tired.
