The NEW Champneys Massaging Bubble Action Deluxe Footspa gets feet party season perfect!

"The super-quiet, infrared vibrating massage, jet action Double the Bubbles™ footspa and accu-pressure massage rollers make this footspa pure bliss. The moving pedicure system ensures feet are baby soft and prepped for the next stage of your manicure. A dream to use, the Champneys Massaging Bubble Action Deluxe Footspa comes complete with toe-touch controls and a splash guard with pour-lip for easy filling and emptying."

That's what it said on the release I got when I received this product for review. So my hopes were quite high! Knowing Champneys are a brand recognised for its quality I wasn't setting myself up to be disappointed and overall I certainly wasn't.

The footspa is lighter to carry than you'd expect, even full of water and the bubbles are very relaxing. I really like the rollers that attach to the base (very easily by the way) so you can run your feel over them for a little 'shiatsu' type massage. The only let down for me was the noise - I did find it quite noisy but then again I do have wooden floors! I put a thick towel underneath and that dampened it a little, but still a little noisy. After a while though with a glass of wine in my hand and the X Factor on TV - the noise was forgotten!

I would heartily recommend this as a Christmas Gift (or an anytime gift for that matter) - it's relaxing, easy on the eye, does what it says on the tin and more than delivers the quailty you'd expect from Champneys!

RRP £49.99, available from Argos, Comet and John Lewis.

The instructions suggest that when the infra-red switch is ON the front area stays illuminated but in my new spa it does not so I cannot tell whether the heater is on or off.
