    i own a Human Touch (HT) whole body 7.1 chair. its out of warranty. it began malfunctioning. after sending HT a description of the issue with a video they told me i needed a new 'massage mechanism'. i received it from HT on 4/25/25. for installation they told me to use *************************** (***) here in *******. FSN installed the mechanism and i paid for installation. after a few days the chair began malfunctioning again. on 5/16 i contacted ** again and submitted a description and video of the issue. after reviewing the video and determining it was defective they sent me an email on 5/16 saying they will send a new mechanism free of charge because the previous one was still under warranty. in their email on 5/16 there was no mention of covering the cost of installation of the new mechanism. i called them and was told i would have to pay for installation. i tried to reason with them that they should cover the installation cost because they sent me a defective mechanism but to no avail. my case number with Human Touch is #******. thanks for your help

    To Whom It May Concern,
    Thank you for the opportunity to respond to this complaint regarding the service experience of a Human Touch customer.
    We have reviewed the details of the case and confirm that the matter has been addressed. The customer initially received a replacement massage mechanism for their WholeBody 7.1 chair and arranged installation through a third-party service provider. Unfortunately, the part was later determined to be defective.
    Upon being notified of the issue, Human Touch promptly shipped a new replacement part at no charge. To further resolve the situation and as a gesture of goodwill, we have coordinated with a new service provider to complete the installation at no cost to the customer. The customer has been contacted and is happy with the solution. 
    We appreciate the customer bringing this to our attention and consider the matter resolved.

    I ordered a chair for $6,607.54, Serial Number ************, even though I tried to speak with a person it was impossible it took me more than a week to research and find out if this chair would be good for me. Because I am disabled with a neurological disease that causes the highest (in the short list of worst human pain) neurological pain in my body, for this reason, I tried to speak but again it was impossible. Not only did the chair take a month to arrive as soon as I sat on it and tried it it also harmed me with 3 days immobile in pain in bed. I called to cancel and return, but they canceled and I had to wait for the return throught the same awful "white glove service" I will post a picture of how it was. By talking with the representative, she assured me that the chair that I needed was the perfect chair PC-600 she did a process to return the chair and order a new chair cheaper. I made the first purchase using Affirm for half of the amount because I live on disability but saving for this chair is as important as being with my family, I can sit in the living room. So she ordered and made me pay before receiving a refund and ****** already took 3 payments. in December she asked me to make another payment of about $3,000 before I received the refund to ship the chair, I was already done, I wasn't going to do it after 3 months, no money no chair, I was upset the people never came to pick up the chair days later and then literally just throw it in the asphalt by the truck on my entrance I took a picture and sent it. They came to pick up the first chair that I couldn't touch right after I canceled the second chair.THE WORST PART IS THAT I HAVE NO CHAIR AFTER 8 WEEKS I DIDNT HAVE A REFUND, AND THE PAYMENTS CONTINUED AS WELL FOR 8 MORE WEEKS I STOPPED THEM, AND AFFECTED MY CREDIT! IN. JANUARY I STILL DIDNT HAVE A REFUND.AND AT THE END OF THIS HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE, THEY CHARGED ME $350. NO CHAIR AND PAID $350 FOIR A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE OF 4 MONTHS.

    Dear Mr. and **************************,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Better Business Bureau. We appreciate your time and effort in bringing your concerns to our attention. As fellow consumers, we understand the importance of seeking resolution when feeling undervalued or unfairly treated. Allow me to provide clarity on the steps we've taken to address your chair issue.
    Upon your initial phone call to Human Touch, our team acted swiftly to resolve the matter. Within just 8 hours of your contact, we had dispatched a technician to assess the situation. Not only did the technician evaluate the issue promptly, but they also alerted us to any potential concerns. Upon receiving their findings, we immediately ordered the necessary parts to address the problem.

    Regarding the request for a new chair, our policy states that replacements are provided within 30 days of receipt. As your chair has been in your possession for longer than that period, we are committed to repairing it promptly. Our team has already expedited the required parts to you, and you should expect to receive them shortly. Once received, a technician will be scheduled to restore your chair to its optimal condition.

    We apologize for any inconvenience this process may cause. Please be assured that we are diligently working to resolve the issue according to our records. While we cannot control technician scheduling, we are doing everything possible to expedite the repair process.
    Thank you for your patience and understanding.

    Kind Regards,

    I bought a HumanTouch Novo massage chair a few years ago for anmost $6k! and the main mechanism stoped working a few months ago. I contacted HumanTouch in December for repair service, and I paid almost $800 for both parts and labor. However, turns out that the part they shipped over was broken through the shipment per technician, as the issue still existed after the part is replaced. I contacted HumanTouch again regarding the issue, they refused to resolve and told me my massage chair already reached its end of life, i either give up not repair or buy another part with 10% discount! Excuse me!? They sent me a broken part in the first place, why now asked me to pay again for their broken product?

    I bought a Human Touch I-Joy *****. The material is not leather, like promised. This item gets shipped, therefore you don't know the material you end up with. I have tried going to ************************************************** to help solve my problem. I was directed back to the ************** number that when you call it you get, "sorry, we can not complete your call at this time" Since I can not get a hold of Human Touch with their 800 number, I am putting in a complaint here, BBB. This fake leather, which I was told was real leather, is peeling and looks horrible. I emailed a couple of upholstery places, sent them some pictures and was told this material is very cheap and should never have been put on a massage chair. I now want Human Touch to pay to have my chair re-upholstered to real leather like I was originally promised. You can see, the chair is kept in great condition, minus the cheap material. I still have the tag on it, which you can see on the right ********.

    I am rejecting this response because: Human Touch used cheap material that did not last. I explained to Human Touch when they called, that I loved this chair. It was vigourous, a low rider and *********** in my home.  I would like Human Touch to reupholster this chair and not use cheap material.  I do not want to spend another $2000-$5000 on a massage chair.  That is not a good solution

    I am rejecting this response because: Interesting that you say a generous discount, without saying the discount. As I keep repeating myself.  I do not want to spend $1000s, because Human Touch used cheap fabric.  I am asking Human Touch to re-upholster the cheap fabric in the chair I already bought.

    Sincerely,

    I hope this message finds you well. I appreciate your continued feedback and understand your concerns regarding the fabric used in the chair you purchased from Human Touch. I apologize for any frustration this has caused you.


    Upon reviewing your request for a re-upholstery of the chair, I regret to inform you that we are unable to fulfill this particular request. Our policy only allows for replacement or repairs of defective products within a specific timeframe, and re-upholstering falls outside the scope of our warranty coverage.


    If you were open to discussing these alternative options, we would be more than willing to work with you to find a suitable resolution. Your satisfaction as a customer is of utmost importance to us, and we value your feedback. Please let us know if you would like to explore these alternatives.


    Thank you for your understanding and patience.

    Despite Human Touch's best efforts to assist the customer with her chair, it appears that the customer's requirements do not correlate with Human Touch's business practices. For example, the consumer requests that Human Touch reupholster her chair, a service that the company does not offer.

    In addition, the customer claims that she endeavored to contact us to resolve this issue, but that she was unsuccessful, despite the fact that we have a documented history of communication with her.

    Human Touch has taken every possible measure to resolve the issue, including offering a substantial discount on the purchase of a chair of a later model, as the customer's current chair is obsolete based on our inventory.

    Human Touch has finally reached out to the consumer in an attempt to resolve the issue. Sadly, it is clear that the customer insists on having her demands met in complete and does not consider any other resolution satisfactory.

    We appreciate the Better Business Bureau's efforts in endeavoring to assist in resolving this issue. Human Touch has investigated and exhausted all possible options and solutions within the scope of our business practices in order to assist the customer at this juncture. We welcome any suggestions or potential solutions that the Better Business Bureau may have in order to ensure the satisfaction and happiness of our customers.

    I am rejecting this response because: Human Touch offer is for me to buy a new Human Touch chair from them at a higher price than what I can buy it at Costco.  Human Touch used cheap materials.  I don't feel asking Human Touch to fix the poor material is out of the question.

    We sincerely appreciate your contact with Human Touch, and we understand that you purchased your chair from us quite some time ago. We regret to inform you that, based on your claims, we are unable to provide further assistance apart from offering you a discount towards the purchase of another chair.


    If your chair was still under warranty or if you had recently made a purchase with us, we would be more than **************** various options to assist you, including the possibility of replacing the chair. Unfortunately, your chair is no longer covered by our warranty, and we regret to inform you that we have no other alternatives to offer you at this time or in the future.
    We genuinely empathize with your disappointment in the unavailability of the option you had hoped for. However, please understand that, given the circumstances, we have exhausted all possible alternatives.


    Once again, we want to assure you that we are willing to provide you with a replacement chair at a significantly discounted rate, should you decide to pursue that option.

    Hello *****,

    Thank you once again for reaching out to us. We truly appreciate your efforts in seeking a resolution to your needs. At Human Touch, we deeply understand the importance of providing exceptional customer care and are committed to addressing your concerns to the best of our abilities.


    Regarding the chair in question, we want to assure you that Human Touch has made every effort to be fair in this situation. Unfortunately, the chair you are referring to is no longer available in our showroom and is well beyond its warranty period. Nevertheless, we have still made genuine attempts to assist you, despite your claims about the quality of our product, which we believe are unsubstantiated.


    We understand that our previous offer of a significant discount towards the purchase of a comparable chair did not meet your expectations. It's worth noting that while ****** does carry some Human Touch chair models, none of them are directly comparable to the specific model you own. However, in order to accommodate your preferences, we are willing to extend a 15% discount towards any ****** chair model you are interested in.


    We want to be transparent in our communication, and it is important to note that Human Touch will not be responsible for any reupholstery or alterations to your existing chair, as this falls outside our standard business practices.


    Once again, we sincerely appreciate your time and consideration. We are open to your decision and will do our best to assist you further based on your preferences.

    Terrible ***************** I have an older model ********************** massage chair (HT-125). I am trying to locate a troubleshooting manual. Their website says to call their number but nobody answers that number, ever. The chat site person told me they will not provide trouble shooting manuals as they are "in-house" only. They will not service my chair because I am in ******. They suggested I hire an independent repair person but they will not provide the trouble shooting manual to them either. This is ridiculous that they have the ability to help a customer but refuse to. Terrible if this chair ends up in a landfill unnecessarily.

    Business Response

    Date: 04/20/2023

    I'm sorry to hear that you have had a negative experience with customer experience in trying to troubleshoot your Human Touch massage chair. However, I would like to present a rebuttal of your claim that their service is terrible.

    Firstly, it is important to note that the Human Touch website explicitly states that they do not provide troubleshooting manuals to customers. This policy is likely in place to ensure that only qualified technicians are working on their products, as improper repairs could potentially cause harm to the user or damage the chair beyond repair. Therefore, it is not fair to expect them to make an exception for you or any other individual customer.

    Secondly, it is understandable that you are frustrated with not being able to find a repair person who has access to the troubleshooting manual.However, the fact that we suggested hiring an independent repair person shows that they we not completely unwilling to help you. We are simply limited in our ability to provide technical manuals to non-authorized technicians.

    Furthermore, the fact that Human Touch cannot service your chair in ****** is likely due to logistical or legal reasons that are beyond our control. It is not uncommon for companies to have limitations on where they can provide service, especially for older models of products.

    Overall, while it is unfortunate that you are having trouble getting your massage chair repaired, I do not believe that this experience necessarily indicates terrible customer service on the part of **********************. We have a policy in place for the safety of our customers and we are doing what we can to help you within those limitations.

    Finally,we did not see a call from you, but you did chat with a live team member who answered all of your concerns with complete candor.  We regret that you feel we have let you down,but we did our best with a chair that has been out of production for some time.Maybe we can provide you with a discount on the purchase of a new model. Please inform **, as we would be delighted to extend this offer.

    I have a Human Touch Massage Chair. When I bought it, my understanding in talking to the salesman who sold the chait to me was that pure leather. However, I now find that it is bonded leather. The bonded leather is peeling off...The chair now looks ugly. I need a solution regarding how to restore the chair's look. For example, is there a black spray that I can purchase and spray on to bonded leather to enable restoring its look.

    Business Response

    Date: 03/13/2023

    Hello **********,

    We understand that you are dissatisfied with the quality of the massage chair you purchased and feel mislead by the salesperson who sold you the chair. But, I must advise you that applying a black spray to restore the appearance of the bonded leather is not suggested. If that is a thought

    Bonded leather is a material composed of leather and other substances. The bonded leather might fracture and peel with time, especially if it is not properly maintained.
    Instead of attempting to restore the appearance of the bonded leather, you may wish to replace it. This choice may be more expensive, but it will provide a solution that is more durable and long-lasting.

    Human Touch is committed to customer happiness and exceeding client expectations, therefore please contact us since we do not have a case involving this matter. We would be delighted to propose a deal.

    We await your responses...

    Kind Regards,

    Human Touch

    I purchased an Novo XT2 Massage chair from ****** and opened up a line of credit with ********* which was ******'s store credit company at time of purchase. I opened the store's credit card because it provided the extended warranty for purchases made with the store's CitiBank card. The main chair roller failed to work properly from early on and continued to get worse. This was during Sars Covid19. I notified Human Touch and a repair person was sent out to diagnose the problem. I was told that Human Touch would cover the labor and I would be responsible for the parts. I contacted them few months later since I hadn't heard anything from them about my upcoming repairs. Repair tech #1 never ordered parts after his evaluation. I called Human Touch again to question the repairs and they sent out repair tech #2 to access the chair and send in his recommendation. I purchased the 2 recommended parts and I paid for shipping. The parts were installed and the chair is still inoperable, even after I spent an additional $800 and almost a year of phone calls and e-mails concerning this repair.Human Touch is telling me the manufacturer's warranty is up and CitiBank is telling me that the chair is still under warranty with the manufacturer. I finally got a letter from Assurant with CityBank requesting all sorts of documentation which I provided to them in an e-mail with attachments. I was told my repair tech #2 that the chair needed to be diagnosed "defined failure" for replacement. The replacement mechanisms that were installed made so many noises, after a few days and then the main replacement mechanism failed. I am a senior and I count on this massage chair. I would like this chair repaired, replaced or refunded at this time. I would also like to have the extra money I spent for the two replacement parts and the expensive shipping refunded. I have multiple emails to both Human Touch and *****'s store credit card company CitiBank concerning this matter.

    I purchased a HT-**** chair in 2018 for over $5000 and now the Main computer board has failed. I contacted Human Touch in order to purchase another board from them and the informed me that they dont carry parts for it and there is nothing they can do. This $5000 chair is now garbage. I am extremely disappointed that they don't carry parts to support what they sell.

    I purchased their Message Chair through ****** in October of 2021, about 6 weeks ago, it developed a problem which was reported to the manufacturer. This item has a 5 year warranty which the company promised to send technician to the customer's house to perform the repair. However, after numerous emails and contact, there has been no action from Human Touch.Now I have a $8000 chair that does not work after just 1 year of use. The technician they work with is not trained on their products, I received a service manual in the mail for the technician to reference if they get here. This is not the type of company anyone should trust.
