    I highly recommend the Pure Wave Model CM-07, for sale on Amazon for $109.99. 6,130 ratings it at 4.5 stars. Plenty of power, long handle, 7 attachments, long lasting battery and the company has excellent customer service. How did CNET leave such a well-known, excellently reviewed product off their list? Should make you wonder…

    It surely enhances the quality of work as well as resistance to all possible terms just like products for carpenters.

    We all know where is this going, and the real use that “massage gun” are going to have.

      @CEWIIH I am hoping the companies creating these guns create Extention handles that will allow a person to massage their own back. I was considering rigging up an aluminum crutch to one with a bungee cord. then I can guide it to places on my back and shoulders.. and around my scapula muscles and trapezius muscles. It would be nice to have some variation on speed control. And I have an idea on how I can do that with the B&D WP900, by plugging it into a variable power control plug.. then I can increase or decrease or even turn it off there instead of the switch on the device. It just occurred to me that some of these devices could use 3d printed heads made with a 3d printer. And they can even use Flexi material or 3d print cover with TPU

      March 31, 2021 at 3:35 am

      how do they facilitate that? do they rent it out or just let people check it out for a while then have them bring it back? How do they deal with sanitizing? just use wet wipes or?? In any case that is a great resource. I know, pre-pandemic, 24-hour fitness was offering them for sale only.

    • UrbanLegend2k11

      March 31, 2021 at 3:39 am

      @M A#np Great question, we gotta check them in and out to use in the gym and we gotta use sonos sanitizing wipes when we put them back on the charging station. The little stuff like that is why I love my powerlifting gym.

    Being completely honest, most are way to expensive

  22. Zombl337

    The Hypervolt Hyperice was $250 when I got it, and it can really get into the deep tissue, and battery life is good. A little noisy, but overall, best one for the price with like 5 attachments

    I uncovered a 20% discount code for the EKRIN B37 and a code for their new B37S flat rate cost of $247.50. I stumbled across the discounts by searching and reading some other reviews for massage guns.

    Why spend the money when you can jog and message the whole body

  33. M A#np

    March 31, 2021 at 3:27 am

    I want to say that I am so thankful to catch the video done by your other reviewer on the B&D WP900. I am into fitness had had not heard of that phenomena. I ordered one on amazon and used it a few days now and really like it. And the price is great. And it is not as noisy as I anticipated, based on Marta’s comment about that.
    I am hoping these companies creating these massage guns create Extention handles that will allow a person to massage their own back or other parts of the body hard to reach solo. I was considering rigging up an aluminum crutch to one with a bungee cord. then I can guide it to places on my back and shoulders.. and around my scapula muscles and trapezius muscles. It would be nice to have some variation on speed control. And I have an idea on how I can do that with the B&D WP900, by plugging it into a variable power control plug.. then I can increase or decrease or even turn it off there instead of the switch on the device.
