Massage Function Worth 1k?
Hello,
After checking some discussions about the comfort vs sports seats, I've arrived at the conclusion that for the extra 200-300 euros I should get the comfort ones and I've also added the air ventilation because the leather can get hot in the summer. I was also curious if I should get the message function? Is it really worth it 1k or should I spend the money elsewhere? I've tested a friend's g30 that had a massage, and with my coat on, I didn't really something significant. Waiting for your opinion. |

I have massage seats and I find the massage function to be borderline useless. Its very weak. Spend your money elsewhere.
I like ventilation function. NOT to be confused with cooled seats though.

I'd also say it's worth sitting on a comfort vs sports seat as the choice is individual. I chose sports seat as I feel comfortable in them. However, before I checked I was borderline considering the comfort seats based on my previous experience.

It depends. I have the massage seats and have a long 90min commute. I find that I use them a few times each trip (they shutoff after a bit).
Be advised it’s not a deep massage. It’s a light massage. I’d make my decision based on the typical duration you are in the vehicle at one time. For example, if over 45min I’d get them, less than that, prob not a value add. |

I like them, but my expectations are in line with what they do. They really just keep you from getting tight.

I have them too and agree with others that it is a light massage on the highest setting.
Wife loves it, I find them a waste of money. The massage on the 7 series is better, you can really feel it much more.

One of my favorite options. Mine on 3 gets er done and wouldn't want anymore while driving. Use it every time I'm in car. Heat on three and massage on three

Mine came as part of the luxury seating package and I love them. I have lower back problems so sometimes I sit in the car in the driveway with seat heater on, massage, music and just enjoy the peach. Maybe it matters what seating option or leather package you have as to cushioning and such but mine work as desired.

Just got my car and I love the massage function. Had it on most of the way home from PCD. I found the seat massage a bit uncomfortable and it was strong enough to move me in the seat, but the back functions are incredible IMO.

My comfort seats came with nappa and massage as a deal. I find the massage great and the wife likes the function also. Would I have got it without being in a deal - unlikely. But as it came with the other two its good...
