Kyota Kenko M673 Massage Chair

The Kenko M673 3D/4D was designed with daily massage in mind. With its 3D back mechanism and 40 strategically placed air cells, the Kenko gives you a full body massage. You don’t have to travel to a spa to experience a massage when you can get one from your home at any time.
With its 3D/4D massage technology, this machine mimics deep tissue massage using a 3D mechanism that moves up and down, left and right, as well as in and out (intensity), and adds a fourth dimension (speed).

Compared to Other Chairs

The Kyota Kenko M673 massage chair is a great choice for those looking for an affordable solution to daily massage. With 46 airbags and 4 motors, it offers many of the same features as much more expensive chairs such as 3-Stage Zero Gravity, Space Saving Recline, SoothMe sound therapy, and Waist Twist Therapy.

Additionally, the Kyota Kenko M673 is much more affordable than both the Osaki OS-Pro Admiral Massage Chair and the Infinity IT-8500 Plus massage chair. In comparison to static displays or control panels, full-color displays M673 provide a menu-driven interface with additional features. All these features make it a great option for those looking for an all around massage experience.

Osaki OS-Pro 3D Admiral

Kyota Kenko M673 Massage Chair Notable Benefits & Features

3D/4D Back Massage Mechanism

By using a 3D mechanism that moves up and down, left and right, in and out (intensity), 3D/4D back and gluteus massage mimics deep tissue massage of human hands. A fourth dimension is also added to these movements, by varying their speed, so that they feel like they are being massaged by human hands.

Truefit™ Body Scanning

Incorporating special technology into the chair’s hardware and software, the chair can determine the dimensions and shape of the user, providing them with customized massages.

Weightless Zero Gravity Recline

The Zero gravity position was developed by NASA to elevate your feet above your heart, relieve pressure on your spine, and improve circulation. A massage chair provides a sense of weightlessness that aids in the therapeutic benefits of decompressing the spine.

Extra Long Calf Coverage

From your knees down to your feet, this massage combines air massage with node pressure point relief. Circulation enhancement is used to relieve pressure and tension.

Targeted Arm Therapy

The sensation of human hands relieving your tired muscles is a wonderful way to benefit from arm compression therapy. Relax and enjoy the sensation of human hands relieving your arm, wrist, and hand tension.

Airbag Compression Therapy

The chair is equipped with airbags that inflate and deflate to provide a compression sensation that mimics the feeling of human hands. Each airbag consists of an air cell.

Triple Foot Roller Total Sole Reflexology

Using three Shiatsu rollers per foot, this feature covers the soles of the feet, which are linked to other parts of the body, which is the best coverage possible in a massage chair.

Kyota Kenko M673 Warranty

Kyota 4-Year U.S. Residential Limited Warranty. 4 Year structural framework warranty. No-cost replacement on covered parts for 2 years. Complete Care/No-cost parts & labor (in-home, if required) for 1 year.

What Do Users Say About Kyota Kenko M673 Massage Chair?


“It’s a chair I’m currently sitting in, and I’ve been using it every day since I got it. When it arrived, it was in perfect condition. It looks great, operates perfectly, and gets me moving every morning. I am older, and this chair keeps me moving. When we gather for Sunday dinners, my family fights for the chair. I looked at chairs in the seven to eight thousand range, but this chair competes with all of them. Neither I nor my five children would hesitate to recommend this chair.”
Dany B.
“As 74”, I can fit the chair, but have to push down on my feet to get past the aping loaded leg height system or I will not be able to get a good knee squeeze. It works well for heat. Since the pillow is one size fits all, tall people may need to lift it to get a neck massage. Customer service was excellent. Several auto programs I couldn’t adjust the 3D feature to lessen the force. Speakers worked well with Bluetooth. Overall, the massage is good and yes, it works well on the feet.”
Gunnar H.
