Interested in buying the Fujita Kn9005 but want to read some unbiased reviews before making a final decision? You’ve come to the right place – we’ve put it through its paces and are ready to deliver our verdict.
Executive Summary
The Fujita Kn9005 is a premium product at the higher end of the market. It comes with 3D Massage Technology and a host of unique features that offer you a more personal and spa-like massage experience. While expensive, it represents magnificent value for money – it’s as good as chairs twice the price.
It’s a large chair, so you should have help available when it’s delivered. Being so big, it’s more suitable for tall people than most massage chairs, though NBA stars will likely miss out on the foot massage feature.

Pros
Full 3D Body Scan and Point Navigation System
The Kn9005 is equipped with a full 3D body scan to determine your body type and spine length. It’s able to pinpoint the areas it needs to massage and which areas to avoid. With the 3D Point Navigation System, it’s also capable of giving you an accurate and efficient massage by mapping out the unique contours and curves of your back.
This technology helps make it one of the most human-like massages available in a chair.
Foot Length Detection and Massage
If you feel frustrated about other massage chairs missing your legs and feet, this one doesn’t. (Provided you’re not over 6 feet tall, anyway. See below.)
This chair includes foot length detection and leg and foot stretch massage feature to give relief to your calves, feet and legs. And because it mimics human massage, you will find it easier to relax.
It’s fantastic, but as we said, very tall people might be slightly short-changed by this particular feature.
3D Massage Rollers
One great thing about this massage chair is that its rollers don’t just go up and down your back. They can also swerve back and forth or left and right for a more accurate massage. They also provide a tapping and kneading massage to reach your deeper muscles. Bliss!
Wireless Remote Control
The Kn9005’s remote control matches the chair’s advanced technology. It’s wireless and comes with pre-programmed buttons for ease of control. It also includes a navigational up and down button to let you target specific areas on your back. Handy.
Full Body Massage
Mimicking traditional Thai massage, this chair can target your head, shoulders, hands and wrists. It is also able to stretch the muscles around your pelvic area as well as your neck and shoulder blades. The chair is equipped with several airbags and massage rollers for a realistic massage experience. It can stretch, press, retract and even do knotting and locking motions to address your specific body pains.
Two-way Zero Gravity Positioning
The Kn9005 provides more than spinal relief with its 2-way zero gravity positioning. It elevates the legs above the heart so that the spine gets to rest horizontally. This position helps reduce spinal stress while allowing the massage rollers to give a deeper massage to your back.
Cons
No products found.
Large and Heavy Chair
Weighing 287 lbs, this massage chair can be difficult to move around the house, especially if there’s no one home to help you out. If you’ve just recently bought it, it’s a good idea if you can directly assemble the chair on your preferred spot at home. This way, you won’t have to go through the trouble of fitting it through doors and dragging it around.
Incomplete Leg Extension Stretch for Tall Men
Although the product is large enough to fit tall men, it may not deliver the same comfort when it comes to their lower extremities. Tall men may not be able to completely experience the chair’s leg extension stretch.
Confusing Models
Fujita creates models with very minute differences in features which make selection confusing for its buyers. Despite the subtle differences, price discrepancy can vary from hundreds to thousands.
Conclusion
The Fujita Kn9005 offers a lot of benefits to its buyers, particularly those struggling with muscle strains and discomforts in the hip area. The chair has widely varied massage capabilities to cover almost every part of your body. Its human-like massage feature is something you’ll daydream about while you’re in the office or stuck in traffic.
As you’d expect from something so well built, it doesn’t come cheap. There are also minor concerns for tall people (over 6 feet). Overall though, it’s a top quality product that’s a great long-term investment in your health and happiness.
