Following last year's award in the product design category at the Red Dot Design Award, one of the world's top three design competitions, Hutech achieved excellent results this year at Japan's prestigious design contest celebrating its 63rd anniversary. The company also has a history of winning the '2017 Good Design Award' hosted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy. Local Japanese judges commented, "The product is optimized for interior design to the extent that you don't even realize it's a massager," and added, "After experiencing the massage, the quality and completeness are so high that you want to use it habitually."
The awarded product, the Hutech Restool Foot Massager, is made with luxurious fabric materials and comes in three colors: Olive Green, Gray, and Orange. It provides refreshing massages with three-dimensional air pressure massage and rotating rollers equipped with acupressure nodes. The cover's top is equipped with a heating function, allowing it to be used as a stool to rest your feet or sit on.
