The Sanyo DR 7000 And the Omega Montage Premier Massage Chair Comparison

Two of the best massage chairs are the Sanyo DR 7700 and the Omega Montage Premier. These both have extraordinary features and provide a range of therapies. See which of these massage chairs provide the ultimate is massage therapy and relaxation.
We take a look at two of the high-end luxury massage chairs available on the market today. One of the massage chair is it is manufactured by Sanyo and the other by Omega massage. The Sanyo model is the DR 7700 in the Omega model is the Montage Premier massage chair. Both of these manufacturers produce high-quality massage chairs and have national distribution. They also have many different features, so selecting between the Sanyo massage chair and the Omega massage chair can be quite a decision.

The fit of the massage chair is always important. When you sit down in both chairs, you will notice some slight differences. The Sanyo seems for me to be somewhat on the small side for a high-end chair. The Omega Montage Premier on the other hand seemed to envelop me when seated. It just seemed to feel plusher than the Sanyo. The Omega certainly could fit taller people much better than the Sanyo could.

The Sanyo DR 7700 comes with some amazing electronic features. One of the electronic systems integrated into the Sanyo massage chair is a physical shape sensor. The physical shape sensor determines how your body is sitting in the chair. If you move during the massage, then the shape sensor redirects the massage based on your new body position.

The Montage Premier by Omega comes with body scanning technology as well. When an automatic massage program is activated, then a body scan is taking. The rollers will move up and down the back and determine important points of the neck and shoulders. The massage is adjusted according to the coordinates imported from the body scan.

One of the advanced technological features of the Sanyo DR 7700 is its stiffness detector. The stiffness detector works off a mouse like device. The user must cut their hand over this device. The device will then take a reading of the pulse rate and the level of perspiration. This information is then used to determine stress points throughout the body.

The Montage Premier comes with five automated massage programs. Each of the five massage programs delivers a full body massage. These programs are designed to address different types of needs. Some are more deep tissue related while others are for warm up and invigoration.

Sanyo has equipped the DR 7700 massage chair with four automatic programs. These programs also are full body massage programs. Many of these programs are fairly subtle and not as deep penetrating. This seemed to be one of the drawbacks of the DR 7700 massage chair.

When comparing both of the chairs from Sanyo and Omega, we noticed two things right away. Sanyo tends to use more electronic devices such as a physical shape sensor and stiffness detection system where as Omega tends to add more therapeutic features such as full body heat and an MP3 player.

The Sanyo DR 7700 is a zero gravity recliner. The zero gravity position is used to better distribute the weight of the body and to relax the spine. The Omega Montage Premier does not recline as far back as the Sanyo for the zero gravity position. The Montage Premier, however, does come with a lower body stretching system. This stretching system enables you to elongate the muscles from the hips to your ankles.

When you are actually getting a massage in both chairs, you will also notice that the Montage Premier provide a much better environment for total relaxation. Just slip on the headphones and listen to some soft music to relax. Activate the full body heat to warm you up and start an automatic massage program. Close your eyes and you'll find yourself in a comfortable and relaxing place.

After putting both chairs through their paces, we find that the Omega Montage Premier is the superior massage chair. The end result of any massage chair is to provide relief and relaxation. The Omega Montage Premier simply out performs the Sanyo DR 7700 massage chair. The features of the Montage Premier add therapeutic value to the chair, whereas the Sanyo DR 7700 has more gimmicky features. If you are looking for the best massage chair on the market, you have found the Omega Montage Premier massage chair.
