~Very Effective~
The Sharper Image - PowerBoost Pro Hot and Cold Compact - Black massager is a surprisingly great massager. I didn't think it would be able to compete with my hypervolt, but it does. It is quiet and easy to use. I can run it while watching TV without it interfering with the sound. The hot and cold attachment is a nice perk. To feel benefit from the hot and cold, it needs to be on bare skin (obviously). The temperature is felt very quickly. The massager runs for 10 minute cycles and then shuts off. This was a surprise to me because I didn't read about that feature anywhere in the instructions. It's not necessarily bad though, it keeps me aware of how long I've been in an area and keeps me from over stimulating or aggravating a sore muscle. I am learning to not over do it, which has been a problem in the past. The carrying case is appreciated, I can keep all the attachments, charging cord, and massager in one place. The instructions are helpful in directing you where each attachment is best utilized. Each one feels amazing. My favorite one seems to be which ever one is attached, it's pretty hard to pick. The massager does last for a long run time (up to 2 hours). In turn, it takes a long time to charge. My previous massager took 30 minutes or so to fully charge. This one can take well over two to three hours depending how low the charge is. The charging end is a USB C, that may be why it is a slower charge time. The massager is on the heavier end compared to others, and the handle is *Not* non-slip material. The handle is slick and the top end, that is not is not the main area to hold, *is* non-slip. I think reversing it would make way more sense. Those design flaws aside, this is the massager I go for between the two that I have. I have noticed marked improvement in my chronic shoulder, back, and neck pain with use of this massager and my physical therapy regimen. When placing the hot/cold attachment, the holes and pins need to line up. If they are not in line, you can gently twist in one direction to get the word "temp" to appear, which indicates the unit is ready to do hot or cold. This was not specified in the manual so I wanted to save others the guess work on that issue.

A perfect compact massager
This is my first such massager, so I don’t have any previous experience using one. As I do with all my tools, upon receiving the Sharper Image Powerboost Pro+ Massager I plugged it in and left it charging for a few hours. The Powerboost Pro+ Compact comes with four attachments and a storage/tote case. The Hot & Cold attachment is installed on the handheld gun at time of receipt. Inside the storage container are three other attachments that are best suited for different areas of the body. My first impression was that calling this compact aptly describes it. I have some arthritis in my hands and yet I didn’t have any problem holding it. It definitely feels well built. To charge the unit, there is a USB type-C port on the bottom of the handle. It sits next to the on/off button, which is recessed and doubles as a speed selector. Pressing the on/off switch for a second causes the rear to illuminate for a second showing you a status display of the massager including battery level, speed (which is zero), and the hot/cold status. Keep in mind that I haven’t turned it on at this point. Press and hold the on/off button for a few moments, and the massager display illuminates and stays on. Tap the on/off button, and the display shows the number “1”, which is the lowest speed. Tap it again and the massager goes faster, and the display now shows a “2”. Keep tapping and the numbers and speed continue to increase until you reach the highest speed, which is “6”. Tap one more time and the display returns to “0” – essentially stopping the massager from pulsating. To turn the unit off, press and hold the on/off switch for a couple of seconds. You can do this at any time. To make the massager hotter or colder, there is a rotating bezel around the display. Rotate it clockwise and it turns up the heat. Counterclockwise makes it colder. The heat and cold options are only available if you have the hot/cold attachment installed. Here are some stats on the massager: •

The hot/cold setting is just what I needed!
I own a massager very similar to this but this one far elevates the experience with the hot/cold feature. The Sharper Image PowerBoost Pro Hot and Cold Compact comes with several heads designed for massaging specific areas of the body and the main one that serves to massage while conducting heat or cold onto the skin. It has four attachments in total, a charging cable, and a zipper storage box where everything can be kept well-organized. The box is compact enough that I can take it with me so that I can uses as needed on the go. I especially love the heat setting because I tend to get a stiff neck and the heat really sooths it away along with the pounding of the massager. The hot and cold each have three setting as to how high/low you want the temperature. The cold really feels like you just took it out of the refrigerator, I find it amazing that the massage gun changes temperature as quickly as it does. The massage gun has 6 speed settings to choose from. I tend to not go up beyond the 2nd but my husband goes through all of them depending on how sore or stiff he is. Beyond 4 though, I personally find it difficult to hold more than a few minutes. It feels like I’m holding a jackhammer, and my arm starts feeling odd from the vibrations. One of the main things that caught my attention about this unit is how quiet it is. I have never come across such a quiet massager, it is perfect since my husband and I tend to use it at night once the kids are in bed, otherwise they want to get turns with it. I am honestly really enjoying the power of intensity that this massage gun has, and even more so, the hot and cold settings. This is an item that I am going to keep in mind when looking for a gift because I know it will be useful for just about anybody.

Powerful Plus Heat And Cold Features
Sharper Image has done a great job with their PowerBoost Pro Hot and Cold Compact massager. It's small and powerful. It looks good and the majority of it is metal. It has a solid feel to it. It comes with a carry case that holds the massager, attachments, and USB charge cable. It holds a charge for many uses so if you are taking it with you on a trip for a few days, it will likely last long enough that aren't likely to have to charge it while on the trip, but since it uses a USB-C charge port, it would be easy enough to charge it on longer trips. It's compact, but doesn't fail on delivering power plus heat or cold temperature to the hot/cold massage attachment. It heats up and can get cold within a few seconds. I was surprised at how cold the massage head was. I was expecting it to get cool at the highest setting, but it actually was cold. The PowerBoost Pro doesn't fall short on covering hot and cold massage therapy uses. There is a power button on the bottom of the handle the servers to power on/off the massager and it is used to select the intensity of the massage. It's simple and straight forward to set. It also has a dial at the end of the main body which allows you to set the heat or cold setting or no temp setting. Just turn the dial left to set the cold setting or right to set the heat. The display on the end showing these settings is bright and easy to read. The motor is powerful. It's helped a lot with my shoulder muscles, calves, and upper leg muscles especially when using the heating option. I charged it when I received it and it is currently still running on the initial charge after using each day. The battery life is really good given that this is a compact massager. The PowerBoost Pro Compact has been a big help. If you are looking for something to toss in the luggage for a trip or just want a compact massager for use at home and one that has both heating and cooling functions, then consider the PowerBoost Pro Hot and Cold Compact. The heating and cooling functions work great and it has a powerfull motor with good battery life. I would recommend considering this for both travel and a home use massager.

Heat / Cold Therapy in a Massage Gun! awesome!
I'll start by saying that I'm no expert in muscle / tissue recovery and by no means a massage therapist. But as a regular Joe that works a physically demanding job, I can say that this massage gun is pretty good and has helped a bit with the common aches and pains I come home with. I don't know what kind of sorcery Sharper Image is doing with this massage gun, but the "hot and cold" attachment is very cool. You can toggle heat or cold or nothing at all with the massage gun. The attachment will get pretty warm fast and will provide a nice warm touch to your aching muscles. It gets cold right away too, not ice cold.. but cold enough! I didn't think it would cool down so fast after using the heat setting but it does. I haven't seen any other massage gun do this, it might be the first of its kind. It is a very cool feature! The cold setting is great for reducing swelling and inflammation for recent injuries, and the heat is great for relaxing muscles. My one and only complaint about the massager so far is that this function does not work with any of the other attachments. The massage gun is smart enough to know not to turn the heat or cold on with the other included attachments. Battery life on the massage gun is excellent, I've yet to recharge it after a week of use. It charges conveniently with USB C. I found that my fast charging USB C cable works great with it and will charge it up quite quickly. There is 4 attachments included and a nice case for stowing everything. I lose all my attachments to my last massage gun, so I love that this one comes with a case. No this massage gun will not replace a massage therapist, but it is very nice for use in between your massage sessions. The older I get, the more I appreciate this type of technology. I feel like they help in recovery and physical therapy. I'm trying to do what I can to keep my body strong and able and having heat and cold therapy in a massage gun is a blessing. If you are looking to buy a massage gun, I can whole heartedly recommend this one. This is my second massage gun, and so far it's been great. I really like it, and I think you will to.

Works as expected and more
The unit works as expected and is very easy to use. I love that it heats up to give a soothing effect as you are working out the muscle soreness.

Classic Sharper Image quality and a great massager
I have always loved Sharper Image products for decades. Smartly designed, they include sharp packaging, great presentation and products with simple elegance that look nice and perform as advertised. They also tend to take a pre-existing product types and refine then elevate them. This is exactly what the Shaper Image PowerBoost Pro Hot and Cold Compact Massager does and does it well. I have a few other percussive massagers and the Sharper Image is better built, easier to hold and works better with their hot/cold system than my other units. It comes inside a nice, portable case with the hot/cold attachment already installed. You also get three other percussive attachments that can target the muscle in different ways. One attachment missing I do wish it had was the single cone attachment which really lets you dial down on a specific spot for point release. I love the large, beautiful display and ease of use. Hold button to power on, tap to increase intensity, use dial to adjust hot and cold levels or leave at 0 for nothing. The display shows you your intensity level along with a color read out for temperature: left blue for cold and right red for heat. The front of the massager also has a beautiful ring that lights up red or blue if the hot/hold attachment is activated. Ergonimically, the large oversized handle and balanced weight between the handle and barrel really works well and makes it easy to use and hold. It feels like it is made from metal and the quality feel and look is definitely there. The hot/cold attachment heats up and cools down very quickly which is nice and it can do either while percussively massaging your muscles. My other unit can not do this. You either use hot/cold treatment or you can use percussive massaging; not both. It charges using a standard USB connector but there is no power adapter in the box so you will need an adapter, computer or USB hub/strip. In this day and age with powered USB everywhere, this is ok. Overall, compared to my other percussive massagers, the Sharper Image is the clear winner. Using it before and after a heavy lifting session is fantastic. Hot to warm up and loosen the shoulder tendons before bench. Later on, cold for a nice cold treatment as they start to recuperate before switching to ice packs. This is my new favorite massager.

Powerful Portable Performance
This Sharper Image compact hot/cold massager offers outstanding performance. The massaging action is deep and powerful, while also being versatile due to the included accessories. The vibration, and heat and cold function really lives up to its namesake! I was especially impressed by how hot and cold it could get on the highest setting. Included in the box is a hard case, the massager, 4 attachments, and a USB charging cord. The hard case, like the massager, is well manufactured and feels solid. The massager is about the size of a full size hair dryer, making it easy to wield with one hand. The attachments are for use on different parts of the body and for different effects. It is important to note that only one attachment functions with hot and cold. Fortunately this attachment also has the massage function. Operation of the unit is simple The power button is multi-function. Holding it down for 2 seconds powers it on and off. When powered on, pressing the power button cycles through the 6 levels of motor power. I was truly amazed by how powerful this massager is. It rivals corded massagers in intensity. There is a USB-C power port for charging. I find this to be especially useful since USB-C charging is becoming universal. The massager is rated to last about 2 hours and takes about 3 hours to charge. After using it for a few days I found these times to be accurate. The hot/cold function is activated by a control knob. Turn the knob to the left for the cold function, and to the right for the heat function. There are 3 levels of heat and cold intensity that can be selected. I suffer from intermittent back pain so I am very happy to have this powerful and portable massager to help me get through my episodes of pain. Having a massager that is easy to transport and has heating and cooling functions is going to be a game changer. I highly recommend this powerful and versatile massager! It offers amazing performance making it well worth the price.
