I'm giving this product a 8 because it is a good product for the price. If it were more expensive, I would give it less stars, only because it's very basic. The foot baths that are more expensive probably have more bells and whistles, which might be nice to have, but I don't think you really need it. At the end of the day, they're all tubs for water with bubbles. Of course, if money is no object, then get whichever one you want.

I got this for Christmas from my dad several years ago. I had been wanting one forever and he found this one on sale. It's a decent little footbath and was such a thoughtful gift, but if I were to go and buy my own today, I would probably get something a little bit nicer with a few more features. It's good sized, has several little attachments and works very well. It's been quite durable since I've had it for I think almost 5 years now. Definitely relaxing and a great little thing to have, but could be better. If you want warm water (who doesn't when you are relaxing?) you need to put warm water in there and it only stays warm for so long. There isn't really a feature to keep it warm and there is no feature to *make* it warm. It does bubble up, but they are pretty mild bubbles. It is a bit messy, too. Sometimes can splash over when you're trying to empty it (or just filling it). In general I would definitely recommend this footbath. It is relaxing and has enough features and attachments that you do feel like you're being pampered. It's easy to clean, fill and empty and is a great price. There simply isn't a whole lot to it to give it more than 3 stars. But it is a good little pamperer when you need it.

When I was pregnant with my first child my feet hurt. I asked for a footbath for Christmas and received the Homedics Pedicure Spa Salon Footbath. Perfect! I often set it up in our living room and soaked my feet while watching TV in the evenings. It does a nice job of massaging but is a bit loud. My daughter now loves to do pedicures with me and we often include the Homedics footbath as part of the ritual. She loves the bubbling and massage features, and sits very patiently while it is her turn to use the footbath. I still use it occasionally for tired feet days, and I am never disappointed. It is a bit limiting since you need to be near an outlet and due to the possibility of spilling water in transit, and I see to use it less now that I have small kids. But I am always happy to have it when I do go to the trouble of using it! Fairly easy to store, I kept the original packaging and just pop it back into the box and then into my linen closet.

I recieved this foot bath as a christmas present from my husband. My other footbath finally gave up the ghost so I had been looking for a new one. There are upsides and downsides to this foot bath. it says it's heated but it does not warm the water- it just keeps the water temperture. It has "seagrass" inserts which are ok but they really don't massage or scrub your feet. If you wear size 10 or larger shoe you may find this a little diffucult to use. I have big feet so I had to curl my toes in order to be comfortable. The unit is not "whisper quiet" as it claims- it is actually a bit loud. The down side is that it is quite bulky and the water splashes all over the place when you carry it. I would like it if it were a little deeper to prevent splashing. The nifty thing is that there is a attachment to use for callus removal however I don't feel that there is very much power to it, althouth it is nice to have instead of nothing. Another downside is that even though you empty the water out there seems to be residual water 2 days later making it a breeding ground for mold and other bacteria to grow. It defiantely is not worth the 49.00 my husband paid for it, but it does the job if you just want to soak your feet. I give this a 2 of 5 stars.

I was having trouble with sore and achy feet so my daughter got me a Homedics Pedicure Spa Salon Footbath. I did not think it would make much difference but I was willing to try it. Wow was I wrong! Not only did it make my feet feel better but it left me with the feeling that I was being pampered. I have had professional pedicures before and they are great. Well this is the next best thing. This pedicure has a handle that makes it easy to carry it to fill. It has a pull out foot massager which has a spin brush to massage your feet. It has a gel footrest to cushion your feet while they are soaking. It has an attachment to smooth and reduce the calouses on you heels.There is a brush attachment to exfoliate your feet. All the attachments are interchangable.There is a compartment  in front where you can store all of your attachments when you are not using them. I would definitely recommend this pedicure spa to anyone wanting that feeling of a professional pedicure in your own home.

Homedics HL-300 Pedicure Spa Salon Footbath is like heaven for your feet.  It has attachments for the feet, like a pumice stone and massager.  It keeps the water hot and it has bubbles so that  your feet get the best spa treatment possible for the home.  This footbath is really amazing.  My husband bought this footbath because he stands up all day so his feet were killing him by the time he got home from work.  We put a little bit of epson salt in with the hot water and it really helps his feet.  Pros of this footbath are that it works really well.  It feels wonderful on the feet.  Cons of this footbath are that the water does tend to sprinkle onto the floor so I put a towel underneath it.  Another con is that you either have to carry it with the water in it, or you have to use a container to pour the water into the footbath.  I would also like for the warmer to keep the water warmer for longer.  All in all though, I would recommend this footbath.

I received a Homedics Pedicure Spa this christmas. It was on my wishlist, as I have dry heels and I just love having my feet pampered. I might add that I also have Fibromyalgia, so my feet ache alot. I looked forward to trying it out! It's like a professional salon footbath, even with heat. The footbath comes with a handle to easily tote. You lift the handle, and take to a water faucet to fill with warm water. There is a fill line inside the tub so you know how much water to use. The heat from the footbath will only maintain the temperature of the water put in, it will not warm cold water. I found the temperature of the water dropped a little when I first used it, so I made sure to use warmer water the next time. I find a comfortable chair and put the bath in front of it. It has a toe touch control to turn on and off. I like that feature because you don't have to bend over. Turn it on to enjoy a warm, soothing bubble massage. The first time I used mine, the bubble action got the floor a little wet, so I had to put less water in the next time. There is also sensuous seagrass underneath to invigorate and soothe your feet even more. The seagrass can be taken out to find raised nodes in the floor,which help rejuvenate your feet as you rub them over the nodes.  This footbath is also  equipped with a rechargeable Pedicure tool(with spinning action) with five attachments. There is a covered storage area for these attachments.Each attachment has a different purpose: 1. Dry Heel Reducer-removes rough spots and reduces dry skin 2. Stone pumice-Exfoliates to smooth and soften skin. 3. Finishing Pumice-gently exfoliates to provide a smooth finish. 4. Nail Brush-cleanes and exfoliate your feet.     5.  Nail Buffer-Smooths and shines nails. Overall, I really enjoy my footbath. It's not perfect, but it gives me the pampering I need once in awhile, and it's simple to maintain.         Smoothes and shines nails 5.Nail Buffer-
