Recliner Review: HT7120 Massage Chair by Human Touch

By Steve Esquire


This product review will evaluate and show the salient features of the HT-7120 massage chair. The HT 7120 massage recliner is made by Human Touch. Human Touch is one of the larger American manufacturer's of massage loungers. This particular massage recliner comes with advanced features and with a sleek contemporary design. Human Touch also has integrated its patented massage system in the HT 7120. Let us take a look at the HT-7120.

We are first always concerned with the warranty of massage chairs. These are big ticket items and you want to be sure that you have adequate protection from the possibility of problems down the road. We always advise buying your chair from the top manufacturers because there are many cheap imports that promise the world and then just do not deliver. Human Touch is one of the best companies in the industry and has national distribution.

The HT-7120 comes with the following warranty coverage: 3 years for the structure of the chair, 1 year for parts and 90 days labor. We find this warranty a bit short for this class of massage chair. Human Touch does not include in home technician service with this chair, so any problems require you to return the chair back to them or pay for the technician to come to your house. We are a bit surprised, since we feel the Human Touch chairs are fairly well built, but this is not reflected in this warranty.

This recliner comes with a unique flipping leg rest ottoman. The ottoman has wells for your calves, but the unit can be flipped, so it looks like a regular recliner. This is a very nice feature and greatly improves the aesthetics of the massage recliner. Additionally, you can change the width of the wells to better fit and accommodate your legs. This helps to really get the proper fit and massage compression for the area of the legs you want massaged.

This recliner comes with a full body stretch mode. The airbags in the leg rest ottoman will energize to squeeze the legs to hold them. The chair back will then start to slowly recline. As the chair back reclines, it will gently stretch out the body. This body stretch will bring more blood flow to the spine as it decompresses and rejuvenates your back.

Get some targeted heat with the dual lumbar heating elements of the HT 7120 massage chair recliner. These dual heaters target the lower back for relief of aches and pain. They also help to reduce swelling and increase blood flow. This is a good compliment to receiving massage therapy in this area as well.

Let us talk about the massage therapy of the HT-7120 massage chair recliner. The HT7120 comes with a 15 automatic massage which is adjustable for the upper back, lower back or full back. You can also adjust the comfort control to 7 different levels of intensity. You will also find 4 manual massage treatments. These manual treatments include rolling, compression, kneading and percussion. You have quite a few options to really target the areas in most need of attention.

One important element of the HT 7120 is its design. It is a sleek, contemporary looking massage chair recliner. Human Touch brings a designer's touch to the HT 7120 with its oval base that can swivel 30 degrees. This chair can compliment most any room in the house. If you are considering a massage chair in the mid range level, then the HT-7120 is certainly a contender worthy of your attention.
