Macally Buzzball

Have you ever sat by the computer and felt a pain somewhere on your body? Most of us have and tonite we are having a look at a product that might relieve the problem :) It's a Macally Buzzball, which is a massage ball that you plug into your USB port and run it through that.... Maybe not the most necessary product but if you have problems with tension and pain why not try this!

The product:

Buzzball yes, hmm ok this was very well packed and on the back we have some specifications about the product. You can get a USB 2 model later this year with more RPM in case this one is not enough for you :)

This is very easy to use since it runs through USB. Just plug it in and push the button on the back and you are on your way. The cord is long enough so you can sit down and let your husband/wife rub your back with this product right by your computer.

This product actually does look alot like one of those massage balls you can buy at massage places. It fits even in a small hand. It's not very thick either so you can easily rub someones back since it fits very good.

On the back of the product we have a Macally logo and the On/Off button.

Testing:

I tested this on my wife and here is her quote: 'I was surprised that it worked so good considering that the product is so small and compact. Although it is not as strong as the larger ones it is very relaxing to use, and works tense muscles well.

Conclusion:

This is a short review but it's also a small product :) We personally review everything here at rbmods. This is a nice product that works very well. Personally I would have liked a handle on it because your hand is tingly after you have used it for awhile. A rpm controller would also have been nice so you could have used lower speeds on tense muscles. This works very good though and gets 3 out of 5 and a recommendation for a good idea and newthinking that works great at lanparties etc when your muscles get tired and tense.

Pros:

+ Small
+ Works pretty good
+ Easy to use and plug in

Cons:

- No rpm controller
- No handle



Red&Blackness gives it 3 out of 5 dots
