Review of Panasonic EP 1285 Massage Chair Recliner

This is a review of the Panasonic EP 1285 model massage chair. This is a new series of contemporary urban massage recliners from Panasonic. This series is the first attempt to begin to match the decoration of most homes. Almost every massage chair released from Panasonic unfortunately has looked like a massage chair. This is a good break with past tradition.

One of the first areas that you will always want to check is the warranty coverage. Born key coverage is equivalent to an insurance policy. These types of recliners have many moving parts and electronics which sometimes can have problems. You want to be sure that you have sufficient warranty coverage and protection for peace of mind.

The EP 1285 comes with their standard one-year coverage on parts. It also provides for one year of on-site service or in-home service. This is an important aspect of warranty coverage as it is better to have it serviced in your home rather than you have to take it somewhere. The rollers in the chair back are covered for three years. This is basic warranty coverage and you may want to consider getting an extended warranty.

This new contemporary urban massage recliner series is a welcome departure from the traditional mundane designs typically from Panasonic. They have been famous for their sterile industrial designs in the past. The new contemporary series brings a fresh look to the line.

The contemporary urban massage recliner series comes with an arsenal of massage treatments. There are nine different manual massage techniques contained in this chair alone. You can choose from Hawaiian, shiatsu, Swedish or even chiropractic. Each of these massages can be used to target specific areas such as stiff shoulders or a sore lower back.

Select from four different automatic massage programs with the EP 1285 massage recliner. Each of the automatic massage programs controls the entire chair. With the push of a single button you can get a full body massage. These programs also allow you to adjust them based on the height of your shoulder.

The EP 1285 comes with an air massage system and the leg rest. The leg rest has 12 specially designed airbags to help improve the circulation of the lower legs. The airbags are synchronizing to provide a soothing massage by directing the pressure upward from the feet through the calves. This is a soothing and relieving massage.

The EP 1285 also comes with a like stretch. The leg stretch utilizes the leg rest to stretch out the lower body. The leg rest is raised horizontal and the airbags are activated to hold the feet. The leg rest is then lowered slowly to three different positions to stretch out the lower body.

The Panasonic EP 1285 massage chair uses the latest sweetheart to urban massage technology. This particular technology replicates the hand movements of a master massage therapist. The mechanism is used to simulate the palm of the hand, the heel of the hand and the thumbs. This is a very subtle technology which adds to the effectiveness of the massage therapy and this recliner.

Overall, we like to do contemporary design of the EP 1285. Panasonic has done a good job in styling this chair to match with the decoration in more homes. The massage techniques used in this recliner are subtle yet effective. The air system in the leg rest is effective in helping improve the circulation of the lower legs. This is a good step forward for Panasonic and is a massage chair that you should check out.
