One of the most popular massage chairs on the market today, the Kahuna SM 7300 seems to be an obvious choice if you are on the lookout for a mid-price range model. In fact, it's on our main review page of the top massage chairs too. It’s a great looking, feature rich chair that has been updated multiple times by the manufacturer, but does it live up to the expectations?

Keep reading as we dig into the details of the features the SM 7300 offers, looking for both the hits and the misses as well as going through what real users are saying about one of the highest selling full-body massage chair models.


Main features

Hybrid SL Track Design with 6 Rollers

This is an upgraded design which delivers a much more thorough massage experience. The S-track naturally follows the curve of the human spine while the L-track part allows the reach of the glutes and thighs.

Combined with the 6 rollers placed at strategic positions the SM 7300 will reach more areas of your body and able to provide unique massage and stretching programs not available on many models in the same price range.

3D Body Scan

By scanning your body before the start of a program, the SM 7300 is able to adjust its rollers and pressure points to your exact requirements. Naturally, this allows for a more targeted and precise massage, but this Kahuna powerhouse does not stop here.

Allowing the users to further adjust the width of the massage area manually, it delivers a truly personalized massage session.

Zero Gravity Feature

Fast becoming a standard for mid-range massage chairs, the zero gravity mode places the user in a reclined position.

This uses the help of gravity as the body weight of the user presses down against the rollers allowing them to put more pressure on those tired muscles. The result is a deeper, more satisfying massage.
