Our review compares foot spas on customer satisfaction, so you can find out what other Aussies think about the compared brands before you go ahead with a purchase. Think of it as asking hundreds of your closest mates which foot spa brand they think is best!
Canstar Blue surveyed 342 Australians for their feedback on the foot spa(s) they’ve purchased or been gifted in the last five years.
Respondents rate their satisfaction with their foot spa brand(s) from zero to ten, where zero is extremely dissatisfied and ten is extremely satisfied. Brand satisfaction was rated by respondents on the following criteria:
The winning brand is the one that receives the highest overall satisfaction rating once all the scores from the overall satisfaction criteria are combined and averaged.
