Cozzia CZ800 Quantum 5D.
Uh oh. If you've been following the past few reviews on my blog, then you probably know what's coming.
This chair shares the same core and the same fundamental frame, hardware, and software as the Osaki Escape Duo and the JP Medics Kozue. The biggest difference, in my opinion, is that they seem to have used cheaper materials for pretty much everything else.
The first thing I noticed was the noise. This chair makes one of the loudest “leather” rubbing noises I've heard, similar to some of the cheaper massage chairs you find online. The mechanism also makes a noticeable plastic like sound. Basically, every time the chair moves, you hear something.
Now, some of this may come down to personal preference, but I also found the armrests to be unusually high. The wireless phone charging port is positioned extremely high as well, which is slightly inconvenient.
Another small annoyance is the LED lighting. The light runs inside the chair, and unfortunately, the brightness cannot be controlled. If you're trying to use the massage chair in a dark room and actually relax, that bright light can become a little distracting.
Thankfully, the software and control interface are exactly the same as the Osaki Escape Duo and JP Medics Kozue, which is a good thing. The controls are familiar, easy to use, and the overall massage experience is still very similar.
Overall, there are some slight ergonomic changes, which I assume is necessary since different brands have to change the chair at least a little bit to make it feel like their own. Lol.
Other than that, this is still a great massage chair, just like the JP Medics Kozue and Osaki Escape Duo. If you're looking at all three, the differences are mostly going to come down to materials, ergonomics, design, and the little details rather than the core massage technology itself.
