Key Features to Compare in 2025
1) Roller Technology (2D vs 3D vs 4D)
3D adds depth control (light to deep); 4D adds speed & rhythm changes for a human-like feel.
2) Track Type (L-Track vs SL-Track)
SL-Track follows the spine’s curve and reaches the glutes/hamstrings—ideal for full-body coverage.
3) Zero-Gravity & Auto Programs
Look for multiple zero-G angles plus preset routines (recovery, stretch, deep tissue, quick 10-minute).
4) Compression & Heat
Airbags for calves/arms/shoulders with adjustable intensity; lumbar or full-back heat enhances blood flow.
5) Smart Controls & Profiles
App control, voice commands, and user profiles make daily use effortless—great for multi-user households.
6) Materials & Footprint
Premium leather/vegan leather, quiet motors, and wall-hugging designs for tight rooms.
