Good price on a massage gun

We own a famous massage gun which this and many other similar guns appear to be based on. When I saw this show come up as a Vine review article I thought I'd check it out since I have a good basis for comparison. This product is significantly cheaper, so it performs well. It comes with a handy carrying case. It's not the best case, but it's nice to have a case that fits everything you need. It comes with a range of different attachments for different massage purposes. I usually only use one of the ball nozzles. I've tried one of the nozzles on a name brand massage gun and it fits, but that doesn't compare to the air cushion that a more expensive gun has in the piston assembly, or maybe the way it seals is different. . It definitely worked, but not exactly the same. Decent quality nozzles, not great. I assume you'll need replacements if you use this a lot. There are 2 displays on the back of the device; Battery on the right and speeds (1-6) on the left. It starts at 1400 and adds 400 rpm or bpm until it peaks at around 3000. Speeds 1 and 2 are fine for me. With the foam ball nozzle, the effect is very similar to that of my more expensive massage gun. The speed is controlled using the "Plus" or "Minus" touch buttons under the indicator LEDs. They worked well with no issues as they didn't register my touch. One thing a branded massage gun can do that I haven't seen is changing the battery. That's why I deducted a star. Otherwise, this is a very well built massage gun. The user-replaceable battery really should have been part of the design. Maybe it is and I just missed it, but I looked it up in the manual and there are no obvious quick reset buttons. All other things being equal, this offers many of the features you get from more expensive guns for less than half the price.
