Brilliant, effective and easy to use little device.
I was a bit dubious about buying this if I'm honest... I'd bought a machine designed for the neck on a deals website previously which claimed to be a TENS device, and I suppose technically it was, but let me tell you it was a painful experience as that thing had been poorly designed and came with basically no instructions as to how it was supposed to be set up or used. Needles to say it now lies unused in a drawer somewhere.However I had seen and heard about the effectiveness of TENS machines so I was prepared to give it another go as I've suffered from lower back pain, shoulder pain, neck pain and leg pain for many years and financially at the moment I was unable to see one of the many physios or chiropractors I've used in the past.So I started researching devices on Amazon and came across the MedFit 3 device which was very reasonably priced, made by a British company and had excellent reviews so decided to order. There is also the MedFit 1 device which is very similar but the MedFit 3 has an LCD screen which I preferred as I could clearly check the settings.Item arrived next day and in the box you get 1 x MedFit device, 8 x self adhesive electrode pads (up to 4 can be used at once so it's effectively a 'spare' set for later, 1 x 9V PP3 battery (very welcome as it was something i'd totally forgotten about), wires to attach the TENS device to the self adhesive pads, and booklets and leaflets with very detailed step by step instructions on how to set the item up, how and where to place the pads for a variety of different types of pain or muscle areas and also a large booklet which shows you other products the company offers along with several different types of electrode pads and deals on them should you need more.So after quickly setting it up as per the instructions and attaching the pads I was ready to go,I attached the device to my jeans (it has a sturdy metal clip which is very handy) and VERY slowly turned it on.... I think it's important to point that out as this machine can be very powerful and the goal is to feel a warm, tingling sensation but if you just turn it all the way up straight away you'll definitely feel the full force and you don't want that. There's a definite 'click' when you turn the dial to ON which is reasssuring, and from there you can very slowly raise it to your preferred comfort level.The control dials on top also have a plastic lid that closes over so there's no chance you can accidentally turn it up or down.There are different modes you can set it to and different strengths and sites you can also set, these are all clearly set out in the instructions although you can adjust as you see fit. For instance you could have 1 set of 2 pads at a certain level on your shoulders and you could have the other set of 2 pads on your lower back at a different level, they're both independently controlled by the dials on top.The machine is designed so that you can wear it all day or just for an hour if you wish.So basically once I'd found 'my' setting it generated that nice, tingly feeling along my painful shoulders and I'll say it genuinely took most of the pain away and replaced it with that warm buzzing. Technically I think the pain doesn't actually go anywhere, it's still there, it's just that the tingling feeling effectively masks it, helps circulation and helps muscles to unwind..... It's kind of like a light massage or climbing into a warm bath and I found it to be a great help. I used the machine for a few hours that first day and have used it for a few hours each day since on different areas and it's providing me with great relief from the dull, achey pains I've had for years. As it can clip on to your belt I've even worn it outdoors and just had the wires under my jumper.I also find the relief extends past the time I'm actually wearing it as well, I feel a bit more mobile and generally less achey. I also had to email the company to ask a question and not only did they get back to me quickly but their service was excellent.So all in all I've found this a great little device for the price and I can't really think of many negative things to say..... It comes with a battery but i'd maybe buy an extra couple in advance as depending on your usage it may get used up quickly although my battery lasted a while, also the pads are very adhesive but sometimes can curl up or move if placed on a flexible area such as an elbow but I've been using plasters to hold them in place and that's been that problem solved, also the pads work best on areas that have been cleaned and dried thoroughly but I've also found that if you have hairy arms or legs it's better to shave the part where you put the pads as the hair makes them tend not to stick as well.Apart from that, I've absolutely nothing to complain about and I've got no hesitation in giving it 5 stars. Hopefully it works just as well for you.

I was recommended to use a tens machine by a colleague for a nerve injury causing pain, after reading a bit and not wanting to spend a lot plumbed for this digital version and have to say that although it is rather light and plastic it works surprisingly well. The digital setting seem to add a level of options but in reality have just got to a setting and leave well alone, in use the 'volume' (intensity) setting seems a little course in operation/effect (needs a steady hand when increasing the setting to not get too much effect!In use I increase the settings until just before it gets uncomfortable and gradually increase it a little as the body get used to the setting.Overall glad I bought it and things are going well after a couple of months - and do get relief from pain/symptoms although not effecting a cure the relief can be welcome, and on this basis I recommend as good value.

Great wee machine for a very reasonable price
This is a really good wee tens machine. Powerful and really compact for carrying about. I’ve been using it for 2 weeks now on advise from physio and it definitely is helping my neck and lower back pain

Great, get on.
It looks like a pocket radio from the 80s, and it works. And I mean it really works, I was prepared for it to just be a load of nonsense, but it’s not. I take less pain medication now that I have this, which is healthier and cheaper than trying to fix everything with pills.Thanks to manual controls and replaceable batteries, it should last a lot longer than equivalents with temperamental touchscreens, or rechargeable batteries that stop working and turn spicy after a few years of use.The guidance documents that come with it could have done with a bit of editing, but overall they’re solid and get across a lot of valuable information on how the thing works. There are also suggested electrode placements and settings for a bunch of common conditions so you have somewhere to start from. The controls are simple and clear, and the unit remembers its settings, so you’re not constantly fiddling with it.Overall, get one. The cost is minimal, and if you get any results the thing will pay for itself very quickly. Not to mention, you will be in less pain.
