Human Touch has a full massage chair line and the HT 7450 is the top of the line. We take an inside look at the salient features, functions and warranty coverage of this high end massage chair. The HT 7450 is also a Zero Gravity massage chair. We present our evaluation of this massage chair recliner.
First we want to point out that when looking for a massage chair, it is imperative to go with a reputable company with retail distribution. There are so many imported massage chairs, which offer very low prices and unfortunately the same quality to match. This only becomes evident down the road when you have a problem with the massage recliner. We have heard too many horror stories, so go with a top brand. Rest assured, Human Touch is one of the top American brands out on the market and has national distribution. You will be covered down the road.
So let us look at the warranty coverage from Human Touch. The high end HT7450 gets the best warranty coverage from Human Touch in its product line. The HT 7450 comes with 5 years on the chair's structure. There is a 3 year warranty on parts. You get 1 year labor and 90 days in home service. This is the most extensive warranty coverage offered by Human Touch. It is somewhat below average compared to the other name brands. Customer service is pretty good and turnaround is quick.
The HT-7450 is a zero gravity massage recliner. This means that both your knees are above your heart. This is the positioned used by NASA astronauts when being launched in a rocket. This position takes the pressure of your spine and evenly distributes it across your whole back. If you have back pain, then this position takes the pressure off which is very comfortable.
The recline function to the zero gravity position is highly engineered for ergonomics and that translates into comfort. For example, the armrests move independently of the chair back at the perfect ratio between the arms and the body. This ensures there is no stress or tension on the neck, shoulder or arms in the zero gravity position.
The armrest is also complimented with the seat of the HT-7450. The seat of this massage recliner will tilt down when you are going to the zero gravity position. This is designed to support the lumbar and keeps it in a natural and stress-free position. These two features are to keep tension to a minimum in your body for this position.
Let us take a look at the massage capabilities of this massage recliner. There are 8 pre-programmed automatic programs with this chair. These are one button massage choices which work the whole chair. There are four manual massage techniques. You can select the area or region you want to target with these techniques. The seat has 8 different massage treatments and the leg rest has calf massage capability.
One of our favorite pre-programmed massages is the Full Body Sore Muscle Relief massage treatment. This massage treatment has a warm up, full massage and then a warm down in its program cycle. The warm up massage lasts for 3 minutes and is to loosen the muscles for the main massage cycle. The main massage cycle is a deep tissue massage to relieve sore, aching muscles. The recliner then shifts into a warm down to relax the muscles for the final three minutes.
This is a very well designed massage recliner. It also is a very attractive massage recliner and comes in top grain leather upholstery. It does have heaters in the back, so we are not sure of the durability of the leather over the long term. In any event, this massage recliner is a first class executive looking massage chair that will look good in virtually any room in the house. If you are looking for a comprehensive massage lounger in the luxury range, then the HT-7450 is definitely a serious contender for your attention. - 16083
