Just plugged in the same one for my girlfriend. Thank you for this video I couldn’t figure out how to properly add the salts. Your video helped alot in dropping some ( Gold mountain beauty therapeutic foot soak glacier cooling tea tree oil & peppermint) 😉👍.
I noticed on 11/26/21 that the retailer is selling a model that looks identical to this but no longer says it's MaxKare brand in print and the name is missing above the LED temperature. I will not buy my footbath with this missing from the product. If the factory messed up it should be much cheaper or could it even be counterfeit. It is a market place item but has been tagged as a retailer favorite. I got a great price on a branded on elsewhere.
That's a good point about if you can add salts to the water. I just bought a Homedics Bubble Bliss at Walmart and in the instructions it says "NEVER put soap, salts or other additives into the water in this foot bath". Because of that, I'm returning it unused. Why they don't want you to add salts beats me. Anyway, I will probably purchase one of these after seeing your video. Thanks.
I just bought the same exact one and I paid $30 for it on eBay other than that everything she says is right about it I do wish the rollers rolled around but it does have a temperature setting so that’s good
I know this is an old video but if anyone could reply asap that would be great! So my mother had to chemo therapy somewhat recently and has suffered foot neuropathy as a result. Mother’s Day is around the corner and since she complains about the pain a lot I thought one of these foot spa’s would be ideal. Just wanted to know if anyone was in any sort of similar position and knew if it helped for something like foot neuropathy?
i just bought , but it rollers didnt move and give the massaj how do i turn on rollers if rollers doesnt work then its waste of money its better boil water and dip ur feel inside
I got this recently and it sucks. Takes ages to heat up water unless already warm/hot. Bubbles are so weak they can't be felt, vibration just makes the unit buzz and again can't be felt. Rollers not comfortable. Temperature can only go up until looping to the minimum again. Going to return. Will just stick to a basin/kettle.
Hello Ramona I just purchased a similar Max Kare model. First the manual has no nun instruc6on how to clean it. Any pointers? Or just a damp cloth, warm water, and soap perhaps? Also is tap water ok or shall I use distilled water? Thank you in advance.
I just got this as a gift, and it seems that the heater does not work... It keeps going down by one degree and not up at all, and I have been sitting there for 15 minutes or so. I checked the manual, and it says "Please check and connect the product to the power supply." My foot spa is already connected to an outlet, and I am so confused... Did you have this issue?
Thanks for your review. You are generous because I gave it a six out of ten. It vibrates and bubbles but nothing special at all. It keeps water warm, but up/down temperature arrows seem to default going up... hard to get it to go down. The rollers are not smooth but actually poke/scratch a bit. I don't mind that it's not an auto roller, but at least it doesn't have to poke/scratch. I may keep it because It's my second foot spa (tired of returning stuff) and the price point was higher than I wanted to pay but still not super high. However, I may have to just upgrade. That doesn't always mean I'll get a better product if I pay may more, hence, my hesitation and thoughts about keeping it.
@@ramonatulk5319 thank you so much for response! It doesn't really specify in the user manual if you could add oils but I guess it should be okay adding essential oils such as tea tree and peppermint. Also wondering how the storage box works! X
@@ramonatulk5319 hello , may I know why the temperature keeps changing once you set it ? Does that mean the heating keeps changing as well? And how do you find the massager now? As I am planning to purchase one
Hi, do you still have this? If so, how’s this holding up? Do you think it’s worth the hefty price tag? I do agree that they should have an auto massage feature. Also, I see some pictures on Amazon with brown water, is that rust? Have you experience that?
It does look comfy for your tootsies and I hope it helps them. If it works good for you just think of all the money you'd save on foot massages & pedicures. I was wondering if you think this is ok for a diabetic to use? My NP is always after me about my dry skin on my feet. Thanks for your review. Roxie looks intrigued by the massager.
@@ramonatulk5319 I will check with her. I already lost one toe due to apparently not drying between my toes after soaking so I only let the podiatrist cut my nails, otherwise I definitely would love a pedi but I have to be cautious. That was in 2010 and then one year ago in February, I had to have my right little toe amputated due to an issue with a corn which developed into gangrene - it was not fun. Thanks.
@@ramonatulk5319 Thanks but it could have been worse - I could have lost my foot bc of the gangrene at least that's what the surgeon said b4 he chopped off off my toe! BTW thanks for sending me the Scentsy brochures.
i have been unlucky just purchased one and it doesn,t work. i can't ship it back because it will cost me a lot. i was so looking forward to enjoy it but unfortunately
I'm so excited!! I've worked as a assisted living housekeeper in the past. Just bought one similar to this from Amazon!! 60.00 for 40.00!!!!
Ramona that sounds relaxing for when "your dogs are barkin'". That's a lot of steps every day. Enjoy a little pampering! ♥️😘
Very homey approach to wellness. K
Nice and relaxing 🧖🏽♀️ hope you're enjoying it!

Actually the salts are added in the middle (1:47 min) you can rotate the plastic blue lid and then you have a recipient for salts. Hope this helps.
@@JoaoPedroSobral does it open? How do you put them in? I can’t get the lid off.
I use 2 cups water, 2 cups lesterine and 4 cups of water. It works good for me.

Daughter got this for me for Christmas. Haven’t used yet, looking forward to it.

Excellent review, answered all my questions. Thanks.
Use between 101-103 F max. Higher can cook your feet. 1-3 cups of Magnesium flakes is a good range. Go high if you're deficient.
Press the temp up/down button to start the heater manually.
Thanks for this it’s hard to find review on foot baths lol

Hi Marcel. I swish warm soapy water around and then dump it. Seems to be working ok. And yes, I use tap water. Happy Soaking! 💚🍀

I have to say I did not. But other people have commented they had issues also. I’m sorry to hear yours is not working well.
How long does it take for the water to heat up?
tequilabnatural fast...3-5 min depending on how hot you set it. I’m still enjoying it and coming in handy now that I can’t go for pedi’s
Hi Ramona! Can it be used only with cold water for the summer? Can you disable the option to heat the water but keep blowing bubbles? Thx!
kbe87kat I just plugged it in and it auto sets at 72 degrees which isn’t too hot. I set mine around 108. So it might work for you. 😊
@@ramonatulk5319 In Barcelona, 22ºC (72ºF) is like a sauna lol Thank you! =)

Hi Ramona, i was thinking ordering this one? Do you still recommend it? Thanks in advance
For the money, it was fine. Does it replace a pedi at the salon?? Nope
@@ramonatulk5319 ohk thanks
Mine is new and screen is reading OF and cannot any of the buttons to work
Oh no. Get a refund or exchange
What is the size of the foot?
8.5
I just got this! Can't wait to try. Would it be okay to add oils to it? Thanks x
Probably. I add bath salts. But I don’t know if the manufacturer recommends using oils or salts
@@ramonatulk5319 thank you so much for response!
It doesn't really specify in the user manual if you could add oils but I guess it should be okay adding essential oils such as tea tree and peppermint.
Also wondering how the storage box works! X
I just put mine in the closet

So far I’m not having any problems. I use it with foot soak/bath crystals. No brown water. I’m enjoying it. 😊

Oh no NEVER will I give up pedi’s. I just had one this morning. 😊 I would check with your NP about using it.

You suppose to add the salt inside that circle if you didn’t find out yet. Probably have.
I purchased one and it is not working
So sorry to hear that. Did you return it?
i have been unlucky just purchased one and it doesn,t work. i can't ship it back because it will cost me a lot. i was so looking forward to enjoy it but unfortunately
Oh no! What’s not working?
I just bought one and it is not working.
The rollers hurt my feet.
YOU OPEN THE BLUE PIECE IN BOTTOM AND PUT YOUR SALTS IN THERE TO KEEP THE SALT FROM GETTING INTO ELEMENTS.
Aloha Ramona!
Aloha!
