DETAILED OVERVIEW
The WholeBody 5.1 is the simpler of the two Human Touch chairs in this catalog. It uses the company’s FlexGlide back engine, a dual-motor backrest and leg rest, and a retractable calf/foot massager in an open chair that swivels 55 degrees.
Its appeal is restraint: three automatic programs, adjustable massage width, and a removable softening pad. It does not include heat, airbags, zero gravity, body scanning, Bluetooth, or an app.
WHO IT SUITS
FEATURE ANALYSIS
The FlexGlide engine provides orbital back massage without the adjustable forward depth marketed on the 7.1. The removable pad offers a physical way to soften or strengthen the experience.
The calf/foot unit rotates out for use and stows when the chair returns to a seating role. It is a figure-eight lower-leg mechanism, not a set of sole rollers inside an enclosed footwell.
FIT AND ROOM PLANNING
The chair is 28 inches wide with a published 21 × 18-inch seat and 285-pound maximum. Human Touch does not publish a user-height range, so short and tall shoppers should test whether the shoulder mechanism and ottoman align correctly.
Reclined size is 67 × 28 × 28 inches, with 9 inches required behind the chair. The shipping carton is 48 × 29 × 32 inches and 133 pounds gross.
