1. ACEVIVI Foot Spa Bath Massager

Best Foot Spa Overall

No matter what the category, a premium product is one that not only has all the features a user would need from it, but does each of them extremely well too. And while it does face some severe competition from the rest of the entries on this list, we believe the ACEVIVI foot spa more than deserves its top spot on our list, beating out even very well-known companies like Kendal, Conair, and HoMedics in this regard.

This product has everything you could want from a foot spa, from the extremely basic features like adjustable heating and massaging rollers to the more sophisticated ones like a rotating pumice stone for pedicuring your feet and infrared light for sterilization.

Even the massage rollers on this foot spa are quite sophisticated, offering two different kinds of massaging motions (Tai Chi wheels on the four corners, and Corncob rollers in the middle) to give you a better foot massage, based on foot acupuncture techniques.

The ACEVIVI even has a few extra features for convenience, the most notable of which are the detachable wheels on the underside of the foot spa for easy transport, and the gravity flow valve port for easy drainage. Add a folding bucket handle to the top, and you’ve got a spa that’s pretty easy to carry around.

For a product as good as this, it’s quite hard to find something it doesn’t do right. Which is why we were only able to come up with two legitimate concerns:

One, the ACEVIVI is pretty large (size 17), and women with small feet can’t seem to make full use of it, and two, the ACEVIVI doesn’t have a remote, so you’re going to have to bend down every time to change the settings. Otherwise, this is truly one great product.

Pros

Large size, most people can use it
Two sets of massage rollers
Built-in heat programs
Infrared light sterilization
Easy to transport even when full of water

Cons

Some people with small feet may have trouble using it
No remote control

2. Ivation Foot Spa Massager

Our Runner Up

While the ACEVIVI is undoubtedly our top pick for a foot spa to use at home, we believe the Ivation foot spa massager gives the ACEVIVI a solid run for its money, what with having almost all the features the latter provides AND being available for a substantially lower price.

Like the ACEVIVI, the Ivation foot spa covers all the basic features you’d require from a spa, with stellar heating features and oxygen bubbles for a smooth and relaxing experience.

The design of the rollers and massagers, on the other hand, are a lot different as compared to the ACEVIVI, with their only being a pair of corncob rollers under each foot in the middle, meaning you’ll have to move your feet around if you want to massage all of them with the rollers.

Of particular note is the central massager, which you can use to not only target the balls and heel of your foot for a good massage but also swap out with two other attachments for a different pedicure experience.

And while the model does come with a pumice stone included, it’s just a shame that it doesn’t come in the form of an attachment, meaning you’d have to scrub your feet with the stone in your hands instead.

While the lack of a proper pumice stone attachment is disappointing, the Ivation foot spa does make up for its shortcoming by providing a very solid foot spa.

The build quality of this device is quite impressive, with many customers lauding it for its durability under rough use.

You can even throw in bath salts and essential oils into this foot spa and rest easy knowing they won’t mess up the foot spa in any way. In fact, had it not been for the lower quality massage and pedicure experience the Ivation foot spa provides, choosing the ACEVIVI foot spa as the best might have been very difficult indeed.

Pros

Provides intense vibrating massage
Bubble action
Adjustable heat functions
Lower price than the ACEVIVI
Pedicure attachments

Cons

Only one set of massaging rollers
Pumice stone not as a proper attachment

3. Kendal FB09 All-in-one Foot Spa

Best Value for Money

Much like the ACEVIVI, the Kendal FB09 features two sets of massagers, one set of circular vibrating massagers and another set of corncob massagers in the middle, though it doesn’t have as many rollers as the former.

The Kendal FB09 is also very easy to use, giving the user the ability to switch between built-in heating and massage modes with just the twist of a simple of a dial, which is great if you’re not too picky about your heating and massage options, but restricting if you’re someone who likes to fine-tune everything to the nth degree.

The Kendal FB09 is also a pretty big foot spa, catering to the larger foot sizes with relative ease, and even letting you submerge your feet substantially higher than your ankles.

Managing large foot spas can be a pain though, since the more water they can hold, the heavier they end up getting, and the more difficult it is to move around them.

Thankfully, the Kendal FB09 has a set of wheels at the bottom of the device, so rolling it around from the bathroom isn’t a chore, nor is too much of a hassle to empty out the tub, thanks to a drainage pipe located towards the back.

Pros

High-frequency vibrating massagers
Easy to move around and drain
Simple dial interface
Heating therapy and oxygen bubbles
Massages top end of feet as well as middle

Cons

No massagers under the heels
No pedicure attachments

4. ArtNaturals Foot Spa Massager

Best for Athletes and Athlete’s Foot

For extreme cases like worn-out heel and even fungal infections of the feet, you need something that is equipped to take care of them thoroughly, and the ArtNaturals foot spa is just right for the job.

Stretching your tight and stressed feet in the warm, bubbling bath provided by the ArtNaturals is just pure ecstasy, and no matter how sore your feet are, it’s nothing a short session in the ArtNaturals foot spa can’t fix.

The foot spa is quite roomy, so you can move your feet around quite easily and thoroughly enjoy yourself, while the roller massagers at the base of each foot work towards easing the tension in your soles.

With adjustable heat controls to finely tune the temperature exactly how you like it and switching bubbles on or off with the push of a simple button, you have the freedom of setting your foot bath exactly how you like it. And that’s pretty great, especially when you’re trying to relax the day’s pain and stress away.

However, when it comes to something as serious as Athlete’s foot, a simple foot massage session isn’t going to cut it, and this is where the ArtNaturals truly shines.

With the option to add essential oils and bath salts geared towards curing athlete’s feet, a soak in the ArtNaturals foot spa isn’t just relaxing. It’s also medicating.

Pros

Can be used with essential oils and bath salts
Roller massagers at the center of feet
Adjustable heat controls
One-button bubbles on and off
Large size accommodates most feet

Cons

Rollers aren’t motorized, you have to move your feet yourself

5. Kendal Wave Best Deep Foot Spa

Best Deep Foot Spa

Sometimes a foot soak that only extends to your ankles just doesn’t cut it, and you find yourself in search of a much deeper experience. Well, in that case, something like Kendal Wave is your best bet for a foot spa experience that extends far beyond just your ankles.

In fact, the Wave is so deep, it can easily submerge your legs up to the top of your shins, which is saying a lot.

And for those who stretch their calves almost as much as their feet, being able to relax them in a warm bubbling bath can mean the difference between relaxed, rejuvenated legs and extremely sore shins, possibly leading to injury if not destressed.

But the Wave’s large tub isn’t all it has going for it; it’s got some pretty sweet features too. For example, the Wave features a set of motorized rollers under each foot, which means you can just put your feet inside the spa and enjoy the massage, without actually having to move on your own.

The temperature regulation on this model is pretty sweet, and with bubbles coming out from right under your feet, you’re bound to have a great time using it.

And though most large foot spas do feature a set of wheels on the bottom of the device to make it easier to move them, the Kendal Wave goes one step further and adds a trolley handle to the mix, which makes moving it around even easier than it previously was.

And, of course, it’s a Kendal product, so you can be sure the build quality and durability on this thing are going to be pretty impressive. Oh, and did I mention the remote control for selecting the best mode without even needing to bend down?

Read More: Kendal All-in-one Foot Spa Bath Massager

Pros

Kendal product, durable and long-lasting
Very deep foot spa, lots of room
Motorized roller massagers
Great temperature control, can maintain high temperatures with relative ease and consistency
Pumice stone pedicure attachment
Remote control

Cons

Waterfall feature feels tacked on and unnecessary

6. Dr. Scholl’s Pedicure Foot Spa

Best Basic

Having a great bunch of features on your foot spa may seem like a great idea, but to a certain section of the user base, all these extra features come across more as gimmicks than something actually worthwhile.

This is why if you want a foot spa that doesn’t have too much going on over the surface, Dr. Scholl’s pedicure foot spa might spa just be the right product for you. Because this product is literally the limit of how basic you can get without sacrificing the most important features a foot spa has to offer.

One look at Dr. Scholl’s foot spa is enough to be able to differentiate it from the rest of the foot spas on this list, particularly because this foot spa only features a singular roller massager, located in the middle of the device, unlike the rest that features these rollers under each foot instead.

However, that’s not necessarily a bad thing, because it lets you enjoy your foot bath without being bothered by the grinding massage under your feet, letting you massage your feet when you feel like it instead of constantly having to feel them under your feet.

The model even offers a removable pumice stone and 4 other pedicure attachments, making it pretty easy to work on those calluses on your feet while you relax and soak them in hot, salted water.

That’s right the Dr. Scholl’s is completely safe to use with bath salts and essential oils, meaning you’re free to enhance your foot spa experience as you like.

It’s just a real bummer that the model can’t heat up water on its own, relying instead on you to pour warm water instead. It is, however, able to keep the water poured inside it hot for long periods of time, so at least that’s a relief.

Pros

Just the basic features, easy to use
Single massage roller, massage your feet when you want to
Removable pumice stone and other pedicure attachments
Safe to use with bath salts and essential oils
Bubbles for soothing foot soak

Cons

Need to add hot water to the foot spa yourself

7. MaxKare Foot Spa Massager

Best Waterfall Massager

Contrasting to the grinding noise massagers make when they run, waterfall sprouts on foot spas make a very tranquil flowing sound, one that’s akin to music when you’re trying to relax with a nice hot foot soak.

And while there have been a couple of foot spas on this list that do feature waterfall jets, no other product does as good a job at this feature than the MaxKare foot spa massager.

Submerging your feet into this foot spa and letting the warm waterfall jets rush all over your feet is a truly sublime feeling, and one can instantly feel their troubles melting away.

But a good product doesn’t have just one good feature, but a series of other great features to complement its best one, and this is definitely the case with the MaxKare.

This foot spa even comes with a small removable case you can use to hold bath salts and other spa materials to enhance your foot bath, so there’s absolutely no need to worry if salts are safe to use with this foot spa or not.

Read More: MaxKare Foot Spa Massager

Pros

Soothing waterfall feature
Large size allows for most large feet
Adjustable temperature and vibration controls
Simple to use control panel
Safe to use with bath salts even comes with a removable case to hold salts

Cons

Not deep enough, water sloshes outsides

8. Conair Foot/Pedicure Spa

Most Convenient to Use

No matter how simple a control panel on a foot spa may be, the need to bend down and push a bunch of buttons every time you want to adjust the temperature and variables automatically makes them hard to use.

Because let’s be honest, would you really want to have to constantly move around while you’re trying to relax? This is exactly what was going through the minds of the people over at Conair when they were designing their foot spa, and the solution they came up for this is pretty innovative.

Instead of regular buttons, the Conair foot spa features toe-touch controls for adjusting everything on this product. With the push of a single button, you can easily reach with your toes (without even needing to so much as crane your neck to find it), you can cycle between different states of the foot spa, easily letting you adjust your foot bath to your liking.

And while the rest of the Conair foot spa’s features are pretty generic, for the price at which you can get it, I’d say it offers pretty good value for money anyway.

Read More: Conair Active Life Waterfall Foot

Pros

Toe-touch controls make for very easy use
Massager fitted in the middle
Can easily maintain high water temperatures
Removable rollers for controlling massage intensity
Deep basin and splash guards protect from water sloshing out

Cons

Does not heat up water from low temperatures, have to pour in hot water at the start
Does not let you adjust temperature and vibration exactly as you like it

9. HoMedics Collapsible Foot Spa

Best Collapsible

When designing a foot spa, most companies don’t cater to the problem of storage, opting instead to focus their energies on more significant features of the product.

And while storage isn’t a huge concern when buying a foot spa, for those who really don’t have space around the house, storing a foot spa when it’s not in use can be a huge pain.

Enter the HoMedics Collapsible foot spa, the only foot spa on this list capable of being used as a foot spa and later collapsible to the thickness of a doormat. A doormat! Brings a whole new meaning to space-saving, doesn’t it?

Besides the stellar space-saving features, the HoMedics provides a couple of other great features too. Forsaking the traditional massage rollers and disks, this foot spa opts for using an AcuNodes surface; the entire floor of the tub is dotted with raised nodes that you can rub your feet over to massage them. These nodes release all the accumulated pain and tension stored in the muscles by vibrating at high frequencies.

Complementing this massage is stellar heat management and the ability to use bath salts in your foot spa. Truly a wonderful combo.

Pros

Collapsible foot spa for easy storage
Large roomy tub when expanded
AcuNodes surface vibrates at high speeds
Keeps water hot for long periods of time
Safe to use with bath salts

Cons

No air bubble massage
Does not heat the water itself, you have to pour in hot water

10. HoMedics FB-55 toe-touch foot spa

Best Entry Level

While the ACEVIVI foot spa is by far the best foot spa on this list, it is also one of the most expensive foot spas on the market right now, which isn’t surprising considering the features it packs in a single package.

And as an inexperienced customer, you might be skeptical about the benefits a foot spa provides and whether or not you might actually enjoy using one. That’s why it’s better to start off with a simpler and less expensive model, much like the HoMedics FB55 foot spa.

For an entry-level foot spa, the HoMedics FB55 surprisingly brings a lot to the table. Besides the regular water heating and temperature adjustability, the FB55 gives a killer bubble massage, and you can use the nodes on the surface to massage your tired soles after a long day.

The FB55 even features a toe-touch control system, making it very easy to switch between modes without having to use your hands. All these things make the FB55 perfect for getting a taste of what foot spas have to offer.

Pros

Very inexpensive
Bubble massage
Can heat up water to comfortable temperatures
Removable pumice stone
Toe-touch controls

Cons

No vibrating massages
No drainage holes
