On the Amazon platform, consumers have given the product an average rating of 4.6 stars. One common complaint is that the product starts to squeak after prolonged use. Many customers like the fact that the massage set is of very good quality. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the quality was very good. During our test period, we did not notice any squeaking or other unpleasant noises.
Prices of up to €39 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from as little as €20. The Heldson massage set is currently priced at €26, which puts it in the middle price segment. The price ratio is reasonable for the quality and scope of services you get.
