Do any forumites use a footspa? If so please can anyone recommend one?
They seem to range in price from £20 to £70 - whats the difference?? :confused:

Any info/advice much appreciated :D

I'm no expert but I do own/use one.

Mine was a pressy years ago, so I have no idea how much it was.

As far as I can see the basic ones are just aprropriately shaped reciptricals for putting your feet into water. The next levels have heaters that keep the water hot and vibration for massage (like mine) but i've seen more advanced ones that have water jet bubble effects, like a jacuzzi and rotating pumice stones and rollers you can stumulate your feet with! :eek: Some of them even have an ifra red remote control! :waycool:

In reality i hardly ever use the vibration thingy, (unless i'm in the garden, which is a favoured place to 'do' my feet) cos it shakes the whole house!

I think the reason I use mine so much, is that I don't like laying my whole body in the bath!

Call me a cheap skate, call me a cynic , call me whatever but after using MANY foot thingy's including Lory's I would say .....save yer pennies!
A bowl of hot soapy water with a good old fashioned pumice stone is better in my opinion than this gadget stuff. Just get some nice smelly foot stuff (am an avon rep so give me a shout :wink: ) and do it the old fashioned way and spend yer pennies on some new dance shoes/clobber/weekend away.

THATS a better idea! :clap: :grin:

Or you could get someone to buy you one for next birthday/Christmas etc!

I got one as a pressie.
Novelty wore off after 3rd dunk.
Major hassle to fill up and heat.
Too heavy to carry.
Nowhere to store it.
Water + electricity is a bit scary :eek:
