[SCREEN TEXT: Mother’s Day Sales Galore]
Alan: It’s Mom’s Day, simply across the nook, and so there’s numerous Mom’s Day gross sales. So, it’s a very good day to purchase, and between Mom’s Day and Father’s Day is, apart from Black Friday and Cyber Monday within the wintertime, that is actually a very good time to be shopping for chairs. So, you realize, go to my web site, and go to the Promotions tab, and beneath the Promotions tab, you’ll see, in case you mouse over that, you’ll see the brand new chair specials, and also you’ll additionally see pre-owned therapeutic massage chairs, our pre-owned listing, and so that you’ll have the ability to see what the brand new chair gross sales are, and what offers we now have on the pre-owned ones, however there’s loads of good gross sales proper now, you realize, I gained’t go in to all of them right here. You may see them on the web site, however a very good time to purchase therapeutic massage chairs.
[SCREEN TEXT: Pre-Owned Directory]
Alan: I’d additionally point out that, you realize, we now have, our pre-owned listing is, that’s the place any new pre-owned chair, whether or not it’s a returned chair, or a flooring mannequin, or any form of a refurbished chair, or whatnot, we promote them there, and sometimes, there’s very, excellent costs, very, excellent costs, so however and it’s in flux as a result of we promote chairs, we get new ones in, we promote chairs, we get new ones again, however if you wish to see some actually good costs, some actually good offers on some well-maintained chairs, most of them are lower than 90 days previous, as a result of our return coverage is 90 days, so we normally get these chairs again inside 90 days. Flooring fashions could be as previous as, you realize, anyplace from perhaps 6 months to a yr, however there may be some actually good pricing there. So, if worth is basically essential to you, and getting a very good deal on a, and it’s essential to you on a premium chair, like an honest chair, go to the pre-owned listing.
[SCREEN TEXT: Kyota Massage Chairs]
Alan: Anyway, I simply thought I might additionally point out that there’s a brand new line of chairs out referred to as Kyota, and so they’ve been round some time. They’ve been at Costco. Kyota is an Infinity firm, and so they have quite a lot of fashions. We’re getting three fashions, they need to be up on the web site this, like at the moment. There’s three fashions, the Yosei, Y-O-S-E-I, the Genki, and the Kenko. So, numerous good Japanese phrases in there that I’m in all probability simply thrashing by attempting to pronounce them, however they’re a very good worth.
[SCREEN TEXT: Kyota Yosei = Infinity Imperial]
Alan: As a matter of truth, the Yosei chair is the previous Infinity Imperial, and so they have repurposed that, they discontinued that chair quite a lot of months in the past, however they’ve introduced it again repurposed within the Kyota line, in order that’s a chair we’re accustomed to. I’m not accustomed to the opposite two, however we are going to turn into increasingly accustomed to them the longer we promote them. However anyway, the Kyota line must be on our web site at the moment, and you’ll form of examine and see what these chairs are all about.
[SCREEN TEXT: Positive Posture Brio Sport vs. Brio Plus]
Alan: Let’s see, the Brio Sport and the Brio Plus, I see that there’s a good quantity of confusion between the Brio Sport and the Brio Plus. They’re each Optimistic Posture chairs, they’re each good chairs, however they do fluctuate from chair to chair, and so some individuals will name us in search of the Brio, they’re in search of the Brio, they ask for the Brio Sport, after they actually imply the Brio Plus, or vice versa, so it will get somewhat complicated. Now, in case you go to my web site, you’ll be able to, go to the weblog on my web site, you’ll have the ability to see an article that I wrote evaluating the Brio Sport to the Brio Plus when these chairs had been first launched to the market, and off the highest of my head, I’m attempting to carry up the article proper now, I believed I had it up on my display earlier, however I didn’t have it, the pc rebooted. However anyway, that, the Brio Sport is a extra aggressive therapeutic massage chair, a stronger therapeutic massage chair. The Brio Plus is a extra light therapeutic massage chair. The Brio Sport is centered round, the theme of that chair is to accommodate athletes, and so there are issues on there just like the Sports activities Therapeutic massage program, the Heat Up program, the Cool Down program, the Core Rotation program, the Visualization program, all principally geared towards the athlete. So, and the Brio Sport is a extra light chair, or sorry, the Brio Plus is a extra light chair. The unique Brio chair was simply referred to as the Brio, and that chair was a mild chair. We bought that chair to individuals who didn’t need an intense therapeutic massage, who’re ideally in search of one thing extra light, however nonetheless wished the therapeutic massage expertise. That chair is the one that you simply’d need to get, the Brio Plus is form of an improve from that one. Let’s see, listed below are among the main variations, I discovered the article. The Brio Sport has seven guide packages, the Brio Plus has 5. The Brio Sport has heated rollers, the Brio Plus doesn’t. Heated rollers are a pleasant function, you don’t see that on quite a lot of chairs. Off the highest of my head, I can consider the OHCO M.8, and the Panasonic MA73, and the MAJ7 which have heated rollers, however not many greater than that, and naturally, I’ve in all probability forgotten some, however it’s a really good function to have. The Brio Sport has a multilanguage distant, the place the Brio Plus doesn’t. The colour choices are somewhat completely different. The Brio Sport has black, and darkish grey, and the Brio Plus is available in black, brown, and beige, after which it’s somewhat completely different physique styling, somewhat, the silhouettes are the identical on the 2 chairs, however the physique styling is somewhat bit extra, perhaps somewhat extra stylistic on the Brio Sport. So, anyway, I simply wished to say that as a result of we get quite a lot of calls about that. I do know that on Costco, the Brio Plus is on Costco infrequently, and that’s usually after we get telephone calls concerning the variations between the 2 chairs.
[SCREEN TEXT: Who’s Who in the Massage Chair World]
Alan: And I discussed earlier that the Optimistic Posture chairs, now they’re, OK, so Kyota, I discussed earlier that Kyota is a part of the Infinity household of chairs, and I simply wrote an article final week you’ll be able to go learn, and it talks about who’s who within the brand-name chair market. And so, you’ve acquired, for instance, Infinity has the Kyota chairs, the Infinity chairs, and the Sharper Picture chairs. Furnishings for Life has the Optimistic Posture chairs, and the OHCO chairs, and the D.Core chairs, the Panasonic distribution rights. And you then’ve acquired Ogawa, which has Cozzia, Ogawa, JPMedics, Brookstone, Ergo Tech. And you then’ve acquired Daiwa, which has Daiwa, Luraco, the American-made chair, which has Luraco, Osaki, Osaki/Titan, or OTA, they’ve Osaki, they’ve Titan, they’ve Apex, they’ve, oh, I can’t bear in mind, Adore, Ador, and Gamma Medic, I believe are the opposite ones, however OTA is, that’s the Osaki/Titan firm. And so that you, and Human Contact has Human Contact chairs. Johnson Wellness has the Synca Wellness and the Inside Stability Wellness chairs. So, it’s form of like just a few bigger firms have quite a lot of the completely different fashions, and quite a lot of the completely different manufacturers. They usually’re in, you realize, they arrive out, and there are nonetheless are extra popping out, in fact. After which there’s quite a lot of the opposite chairs which can be what we think about perhaps extra of an off-brand chair, or no-name-brand chairs, and so they’re simply one-on-one gross sales from an importer of chairs to direct to the buyer, and we gained’t actually get in to that right here. However anyway, you realize, Optimistic Posture and OHCO are a part of the identical umbrella firm, Furnishings for Life, and Kyota is a part of the Infinity household of chairs. So, anyway, there’s quite a lot of a, it will get somewhat twisted, and I didn’t suppose a lot of the article after I wrote it, however boy, I’ve had quite a lot of suggestions on it, so optimistic suggestions, you realize, serving to individuals perceive what the variations are between the businesses, and who’s creating what, and what’s the place.
[SCREEN TEXT: Made in China vs. Made in Japan vs. Made in Korea vs. Made in USA]
Alan: One other factor I might in all probability let you know with virtually 100% confidence, 99% of the chairs are inbuilt China, despite the fact that a chair might say it’s made in Japan, or made in Korea, these chairs, all, most, if not all the elements had been made in China, however then the elements are exported to Korea or Japan, and there they’re assembled, examined, and programmed. And it’s, usually instances, it’s mentioned that it’s within the testing, the place the distinction, the distinction maker is within the testing, and so the benefit of a Japanese or a Korean-made chair is the extra exhaustive testing that these chairs undergo, and in order that provides somewhat bit to the worth of these chairs, completely. And naturally, there’s programming achieved based on what every firm needs. Oh, and I additionally forgot to say like Well being Mate, Well being Mate has their Orest and Well being Mate chairs, and that’s a Korean, these are Korean merchandise. However anyway, it’s essential to know that the majority of those, 99% of the chairs that come, whether or not they’re Chinese language, Chinese language chairs, Japanese chairs, or Korean chairs, their elements, for probably the most half, are made in China. I believe the Synca JP1100 doesn’t have all their elements made in China, a few of them are made in Japan.
[SCREEN TEXT: Luraco is the Only Company That Does Have any Chinese-Made Components]
Alan: And Luraco is the lone wolf that has no Chinese language elements, at the least mainland Chinese language, they’ve Taiwanese elements for his or her noncritical elements. All their electronics and their crucial stuff is completed, you realize, their, among the construct, among the manufacturing of the elements, the meeting, and the testing, and the programming is all achieved in Dallas, or Arlington, which is the place they’re situated, simply outdoors of Dallas, or a suburb of Dallas. So, anyway, there’s a lesson for you on, you realize, who’s who within the therapeutic massage chair trade, and you realize, what chairs, what it means once you hear the time period made in China, or made in Japan, or made in America, or made in Korea. There’s, and it’s somewhat bit extra convoluted, and at instances complicated than you may suppose, or I’ve simply made it extra complicated, I’m undecided.
[SCREEN TEXT: Osaki 4S Japan Chair has been Discontinued]
Alan: Anyway, I believed I might additionally point out that, you realize, talking of Japanese chairs, or made in Japan chairs, the Osaki 4S Japan chair has been discontinued. I perceive that the manufacturing facility that builds that chair in China, or at the least, assembles, assessments, and packages it’s now owned by the Johnson Wellness Tech household, or father or mother firm, which is the corporate that distributes the Synca, the Kagra, and the Inside Stability chairs. So, we’d see extra coming from Johnson Wellness sooner or later, as they’ve now assumed a majority management at that manufacturing facility. And I can not bear in mind, I believe it’s, is it the Mount Fuji, I believe it’s the Mount Fuji manufacturing facility, or one thing like that, I can’t bear in mind. I wrote an article about it a yr and a half in the past after I first heard the information.
[SCREEN TEXT: Port of Long Beach Backlog Update]
Alan: OK, I’ve talked to you about, advert nauseum, and I do know you’ve acquired to imagine me by now, after I let you know that these chairs are back-ordered on the port of Lengthy Seaside. I’ve given you numbers, I’ve given you satellite tv for pc photographs to point out that issues had been backed up. They’re nonetheless backed up and at Christmas time, they had been backed up two weeks to get product out of the port, and on the vans, on the best way to the warehouse, it could take two weeks. They usually figured it could get higher after the brand new yr when the, you realize, Christmas gross sales slowed down, however you realize what? It didn’t, it acquired really worse, and so we’re seeing two plus weeks. Now, for merchandise, not simply chairs, however any merchandise coming from China, coming by way of the border at Lengthy Seaside, and I’ve heard a pair issues. I’ve heard, primary, that they’ve diverted a few of site visitors to Seattle, to a port in Seattle. And after I say they, it’s you realize, whoever the individuals which can be managing the imports, are you realize, siphoning off among the Lengthy Seaside site visitors to Seattle. However we nonetheless have issues with having sufficient trucking to maneuver all of the elements. We’ve, due to the backup, or not all of the elements, however all of the merchandise, after which we now have a backup of merchandise within the port, on the ocean, and due to that, all of the containers are sitting on ships on the out, on the port of Lengthy Seaside, and again in China, and in Japan, there’s a scarcity of containers, you realize, these large containers that go on the ship, after which go within the truck, after which go to the warehouse. And as a matter of truth, in Japan, I hear it’s actually empty so far as availability of containers. So, they’re, those that have their, you realize, firms which have their chairs inbuilt Japan are considering shifting their, delivery their chairs to China, the place there’s a better entry level of containers and different logistics and issues that may, you realize, get their chairs right here to America faster. However anyway, it’s only a nightmare, and it’s gone on quite a bit longer than any of us imagined, and I’ve heard that the logistics points will in all probability go on for the remainder of this yr. So, I hate to be the bearer of unhealthy information, however that’s how it’s, and once you discuss to an organization, or a retailer about getting a chair, and so they let you know that this chair is back-ordered, and so they provide you with an estimate of arriving, don’t maintain, that’s not canonized, that’s not, that’s not the gospel fact, as a result of it might, there’s no, there’s some, there’s quite a lot of uncertainty with that. So, the chairs might come two weeks later, or they may even come somewhat bit earlier, who is aware of? However simply know that the logistics are a ache within the rumpus. It doesn’t imply all of the chairs are on back-order, there’s a quantity, there’s numerous chairs which can be in inventory right here in the US, however quite a lot of the favored ones are on back-order, and so simply, simply in order that you realize. Let’s see, I believe that’s nearly it for this week. I believed I might simply point out to you, effectively, no, effectively, perhaps we’ll discuss that on one other version of this, one other replace. However one factor I’ll point out is a hack for individuals with lengthy legs. I believe, perhaps I discussed this two weeks, but when your legs are too lengthy for the therapeutic massage chair ottoman, and it doesn’t prolong out far sufficient for you, whether or not it’s spring-loaded one that you simply push out along with your legs, or an digital one the place you regulate the size and the ottoman perform electronically, decrease the ottoman down, prolong the legs out so far as they’ll go, and use the distant management to drop the ottoman down. And for a taller individual, the knees will probably be up too excessive when it’s too lengthy, when the legs are too lengthy for the ottoman. Drop the ottoman down, and it’ll carry the legs down, it’ll bend you on the knees, and it’ll carry the calves extra comfortably positioned in to the calf wells. I believe I’ll have talked about that like two weeks in the past, however that’s one thing that we run in to quite a bit within the showroom. So, simply know that if a chair doesn’t really feel prefer it’s becoming you lengthwise, particularly in tall guys, leg clever, drop the ottoman down after you’ve prolonged the ottoman out. However anyway, I hope I wasn’t too redundant with that.
