HoMedics Ribbit Mini Handheld Massager, Vibrating Electric Massager with Comfort Grip and LED Light, Batteries Included, Comes in variable colors, Green, Blue or Pink (Color May Vary)

This little massager works really well. It’s small and simple, but it gives a very nice and relaxing massage. The vibration is strong enough to help relax muscles in the neck, shoulders, and back. One thing I didn’t expect is that my kids also really like it. They think it’s fun and enjoy using it too, so it ended up being something the whole family uses. It’s lightweight, easy to hold, and comfortable to use. For the size and price, it does a great job. Overall I’m very happy with this purchase. It’s simple, effective, and definitely worth it.

I didn’t buy this for its typical use. My son loved the one they had at the doctor’s office as a distraction for little ones, so I figured I’d get him his own to play with as a sensory item. I went back and forth between this one and another here on Amazon that lights up but has a ball-shaped top with 4 legs. I couldn’t decide, and they were cheap enough, so I got both. PLEASE learn from my mistake and just spend the extra $2 on the HoMedics brand! Both massagers arrive and I find out they’re only cool when a nurse gives them to you. Oh well, now Mom gets to use it for the various muscle spasms that accompany severe disc herniation! Gotta look at the positives, right? 1) It is powerful enough to soothe average muscle aches and promote fascia release - if you push hard enough. Not even close to relieving lumbar tension and spasm from disc bulges/herniation, however, if you’re in the same boat as me, you know nothing really helps! I find it very useful for my husband’s neck and back after work and for leg/calf pain for myself. My oldest also uses it to take the edge off the damage he does on heavy lifting days. 2) Build quality is excellent! As we expect of HoMedics, the plastic is thick and durable, the button is securely installed, the lights function perfectly, and all pieces fit together seamlessly. 3) I prefer this ergonomic handheld design (with a slope) as it reduces wrist stress and allows me to push harder without making it uncomfortable. Did I mention I have carpal tunnel too? I’m just waiting for heart failure and complete tooth loss at this point - listen to yer elders, kids! Take care of your body so you’re not writing reviews about massagers one day! ;-) 4) Comes with batteries! Woo! With two toddlers and 300 battery-operated toys I’ll take as many free ones as I can get. 5) Now, this is not an endorsement for tossing your “Ribbit” around all willy-nilly, but my son has both spiked it on my granite and hardwood floors, as well as dunked it in the water tub on his sensory table. Still kept buzzing away. Ribbit lives another day! The short of it: Well worth the investment, will help ease minor to moderate pain from muscle cramps, release tension without hurting, and doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. Buy one!

Works well, easy to hold, good ergonomics. Can use for lite or heavy massage. I even use it on my older dogs shoulders and she loves it. Would buy again

Not as strong as vibration as previous one but I am pretty sure it will help neck area. Good for some but I woukd not repurchase. Excellent quality though

I've had the original Comet version with the equal sized 4 paws for years and it has worked flawlessly. Since that model is not available, I got this Ribbitt version. It is working flawlessly also. They are great to use with one in each hand on the sides of the neck, down the back, on the lower back, and even on the head. Needless to say, my spouse is VERY happy. The pics show the easy on/off button, the nice shape that is easy to grip, the solid battery compartment, and the magic paws. I have used this for 18 sessions of 10-20 minutes on one charge of my AAA Enelops I got here on Amazon. Excellent massager that is small, easy to handle, long battery life, and nice vibrations. Update: Ordered another and got a Green One --- Hurrah! It works just as great as the first one (Pink). The one pictured is still working great and I use it 5 to 6 days a week. I like the shape as it is easy to hold at different angles.

Love this! It is perfect for my neck and back muscles when they tense up so bad. It is only one setting of steady vibration which some may not like but for me it works perfect. I like that is small, handheld and it makes it easy to reach those knotted up muscles myself.

I bought this for our beautiful son, who has a sensory processing disorder, among other things. Ok, lots of other things. But right now, he's been struggling more with some of his sensory stuff since a recent hospital procedure, and he does really well with vibrating stimuli on his jaw line and to the sides of his mouth, it helps calm him down and decrease his desire to chew on things that aren't meant to be. We had gotten rid of the prior one because he hadn't wanted to use it here at home for months, it too was a homedics, but a different product. So when this came today, I noticed that it wouldn't start even once the “Pull out to start” tab was yanked, and that the try me function didn't work. So I opened it up, and pictures are attached. The batteries in it had corroded, and the contents leaked all over the inside of the device. I was able to clean it up and new batteries did get it to start, however, given the corrosive nature of battery juice, I'm not sure now how long this thing is going to last, hence the three stars. I asked my daughter for a fairness meter on this, because I was leaning towards 2, and she said if it was a common problem reported by other reviewers then we should give it a 2, if not leave it at 3. I only saw 2 other reviewers mention that, so I'm going to go with her fairness meter on this one and leave it at three. I actually feel like as long as it's not put on a table while on, this isn't very loud...at least ours isn't. The noise didn't bother my little guy, and he's pretty sensitive about sounds. I have included a picture of the lights. I don't think they aren't bright so much as the color is intense, especially in a shaded room (kind of like a glow bracelet), and he's very distracted by them, and was wanting to look at the lights more then put the device up to the side of his face. I think perhaps the novelty of that will wear off though for him. I think the light is kind of one of those unnecessary features that will probably suck the battery down quicker, so unless you need that feature for a kiddo who would be amused by it, it may be better to get a device without it. So for us, the big problem was that it came with corroded and leaking batteries, which will more then likely affect how long this thing lasts, given how much of the contents were leaked out. So heads up... Update 3/21/17: This thing burned through a set of new batteries in 3 days with fairly minimal use. The other homedics one we had without the lights, the batteries lasted a few weeks. So I really can't recommend this product at all at this point based on how quickly it drains the batteries. It is always possible this is a side effect of the corroded and exploded batteries on our unit, but I recommend you consider a different massager...At this point, I am planning on getting a different one myself, because it would be more cost effective to do so then to keep buying batteries at this rate of usage...

This is a fantastic massager. I ordered this because I have a trigger point below my shoulder blade that flares from time to time. I applied this massager to the trigger point, and it really helped. For $6.00, I figured if it isn't a good product, I'm only out $6.00. I'm very pleased with this product. I received a pink massager that includes batteries. It did not come in a box. It arrived in the Amazon blue and white bubble envelope. Some of the other reviews stated that the massager was broken when received. I'm sure this is why. Mine arrived completely intact. The material is of good quality and the on off switch is in a good spot. The massager is comfortable to hold. The Ribbit has a cute design; it looks like a frog. I used this on my dogs neck and shoulders and he fell asleep! It's a little noisy, but it is not distracting. The legs of the massager lights up, but I did not notice if they heat up, which is fine. I ordered this massager and received it within two days. This is an excellent product and the seller provides excellent service!

It is a massager so I wont send it back but it is a bit dissapointing

Perfect delivery and item thank you

Only 2 points of vibration, not two as the description says. My phone would provide stronger vibrations. Complete waste of money.
