Daniel at the modern back was very knowledgeable and helped us choose the best chair for my wife and me. He was very patient in helping us to try out many chairs in the showroom and made the process easy. I would highly recommend seeing Daniel at the modern back!

Happy Again
This is the second time we have used the modern back. My first chair was beginning to fail so we went to replace it. Daniel was very helpful and knowledgeable. Based on my request he found me the perfect chair in just minutes. It was a floor model. They were able to have it delivered in just a few days the delivery drivers who came all the way from Orlando were absolutely stellar in every way. They were very polite very convivial, very professional and worked quickly. I cannot say enough, good things about the pair of them. I would recommend the modern back in the future to friends and family.

Refreshing experience
The ability to "feel" the right massage chair is amazing. I have tried other chairs but none like the Daiwa Legacy 4. Not only did Daniel and team help to find exactly what i was searching for, they worked within my price range. Daniel was super helpful and listened to my needs! Thank you so much!!

Great experience working with Daniel
Great experience working with Daniel. He helped to make sure we got the chair that worked best for us. Even went above and beyond to get answers to warranty questions.

Daniel Le Modern Back Store -Customer Service at Its Finest
Daniel Le at the Modern Back Store provided truly outstanding service from start to finish. His extensive knowledge, patience, and willingness to walk us through multiple models made the entire experience both informative and enjoyable. He asked thoughtful questions, listened carefully, and offered recommendations that felt genuinely tailored to our needs. On top of that, he was incredibly friendly—if all customer service were like his, shopping would always be a pleasure, and we absolutely love our Daiwa Supreme Hybrid massage chair

I Love this chair
First let me say, I LOVE THIS CHAIR! Now I also really liked and enjoyed my experience with Modern Back.
Daniel was very easy to talk with and very patient with me and my wife. Understand I am an analog man trying to live in a digital age. I am 81 years old and among other things that don't work is my hearing. This necessitated a lot of repeating from Daniel.
We live in Fort Myers about 80 miles from The Modern Back it was the second time we visited the first time about a year ago. They remembered us (digital memory I'm sure).I called ahead to confirm their hours. Daniel met us at the door and I told him what chair I wanted to see. The chair is for me, my bride of 61 years does not appreciate massage chairs for her use. I had been shopping on line and found what appeared to be the best fit for use and budget. So we went to the floor model and guess what, It was too small. So Daniel showed us several chairs and then I plopped down in The Daiwa Supreme Hybrid. He turned it on and to quote Jackie Gleason (sorry if you are too young to remember him) "Away we go." My bride said that looks like a good fit, I said it feels like one too.
Daniel demonstrated some of the programs. To say I was impressed is a great understatement. I had read up on the hybrid and the massage was described as having several people massage you at the same time , it really did, on my feet, on my lower back, on my glutes on my upper back and neck and on my arms and hands all independent of each other, Oh man, it was great.
Well, we went home without the chair. I had a difficult time spending that much money on just me. My bride said, " look it will make you feel better and you looked good in it." Well I could not refuse anything that makes me look good, so we called Daniel and bought the chair.
I wanted to relate this experience to you who have been patient enough to read this knowing that you are not alone when it comes to buying a massage chair, we are not spending pocket change. Take your time and if possible go to a real brick and mortar store even if it requires a drive. If nothing else you get an excuse to eat at a new restaurant or have some alone time together.
We made the decision to buy and Daniel set us up for delivery. The delivery was made as scheduled and the guys set up the chair, made sure all was in working order and answered all my questions. It was great.
Now the chair is installed and I am enjoying the heck out of it. I have demonstrated it to several friends and my two daughters and they all love it. I have the chair installed in my masculine hillside excavation( aka man cave).
I introduce them to the chair by turning down the lights, turning off the tv and turning on my northern lights generator. They are then advised to relax, drop their lower jaw slightly, let their muscles go limp and do not fight the chair. Let the chair move the torso, the chair is designed to move and massage muscles. Once they are comfortable in the chair and because some of them have never been in a massage chair before, I tell them I am going to start with a mild program and work them up to a more vigorous program. I start them in the options program with the full body air bags. That gives them a feel for the chair and its strength and will loosen their muscles a little. (I use the ten minute cycle for all the programs in the intro phase) After the air bag program I move them as follows using the Gentle setting,
1. Morning Buzz
2. Stress Relief
3. Recovery
4.Royal Treatment
This is just my way of showing them what the chair is capable of doing. Years ago I had a very basic massage chair and when I showed friends how the chair worked I popped them into the chair and turned it on to the most vigorous program. Shame on me. Most people got out of the chair not liking it. I was young and strong and enjoyed a vigorous digging into my back massage (I thought everyone else wanted the same thing) Not only that, it is very hard to relax with some one watching you shake, rattle and roll in a chair. That being said, I start the chair and settle back to read a book. I do not want to start a conversation I want them to have a good experience. They will tell me if it is too rough, if it is I stop and add another back pad. I use the two back pads that are attached to the chair and another for the glutes. another pad can be used if necessary. Remember, don't scare them off the way I did.
As for the bells and whistles all the controls work very easily and for an old guy that is important. There are three timer settings for the programs, ten, twenty and thirty minutes. The heat is turned on by using the push buttons on the left arm of the chair. The turn control button switches to gentle, smooth and vigorous operation.
I don't use the speakers my hearing aids blue tooth to my phone.
I hope this has helped your massage chair journey.
I recommend Daiwa and The Modern Back

Durrell - Thank you for taking the time to write this detailed review. It means a lot to all of us at The Modern Back. We’re especially glad to hear how much you’re enjoying the Daiwa Supreme Hybrid—it’s a remarkable chair, and your description of the massage experience really captures what makes it so special.
Daniel will be very happy to hear your kind words. We always try to make the experience comfortable and pressure-free, and it’s wonderful that you and your bride made the trip from Fort Myers to visit the showroom again. Being able to try the chairs in person is exactly why we keep a showroom, because as you discovered, the “perfect chair” on paper doesn’t always feel the same once you sit in it.
Your story about taking time to think about the purchase—and the encouragement from your bride of 61 years—is something many customers can relate to. A massage chair is definitely an investment, and we always want people to feel confident in their decision. We’re very glad it worked out and that the chair is now part of your man cave.
It was also great to hear that the delivery and setup went smoothly. Our delivery teams work hard to make sure everything is set up properly and that all questions are answered before they leave.
Most importantly, we’re thrilled that the chair is helping you relax and that you’re “enjoying the heck out of it.” Thank you again for your kind recommendation of Daiwa and The Modern Back. We truly appreciate your support and wish you many years of great massages.
