(confirmed they have actually sent the g5 version)
At 60% off, I had to get one. This is the best hand held massage gun by far. I have the elite and was looking at the new G6 to upgrade, but the G4 at this price, I can do with the old version.
I think so. I tried it but already a registered user it didn't work, so can't confirm.
Worked for me.
Are you sure this is the G5
Shaver Shop Product Code G4-PRO-PKG-AU
The Good Guys for the same product code shows G4 https://www.thegoodguys.com.au/therabody-g4-theragun-pro-g4-…
Looks like the G4 to me as the charging cable in one of the pictures isn’t USB-C
You're probably right. Couldn't find it to confirm. thanks.
with this model G4 Pro, how is it charged?
do you need to take the battery out to charge it?
also do you get 2 batteries?
You get 2 batteries and have to take it out to charge it in a dock.
They sent G5 version. So this is became a great deal.
What would be better: This or 10 $30 Amazon guns duct taped together?
Bad carrot.
Someone who always use this and Renpho (cheaper) for my recovery after long runs. Either will do the same. Get the cheaper.
I know right? I dont get the extra hundreds for what
Do you have the renpho model that’s similar in strength as this theragun? Thx
Got Renpho, first one died, got refund no dramas, got another one (smaller), still going strong.
"theragun is second to none."
Maybe you havent heard of or not use the ached away pro.
Ive used the G4 TG, its actually second to Achedaway pro.
I use the Renpho and it works well. Was in HN the other day though and they had the newest model of the Theragun on display so gave it a crack and it had significantly more impact than the Renpho. Not sure it's worth 10 times the price though.
I have the Renpho and as well as the Theragun Prime.
The Theragun does feel more solid and is more ergonomic.
From a usage point, I prefer the Theragun, it feels nicer/more effective. Hard to put into words.
But it does cost 3x plus more… so it could be my willing it.to be better.
Also, the Renpho already broke down once. Had to be sent back to be replaced.
Fingers crossed cos it's now out of warranty.
On my third Renpho, and unfortunately, the battery isn't holding up like it used to.
The first one is dead. The last one I returned after about 3 months, as it just didn't hold a charge.
Can anyone confirm the 300-minute battery life on this Theragun?
I can't confirm the 300-minute battery life but both batteries didn't last a year and you cannot purchase replacement batteries. However I've purchased this as it's a really good price and can use the second battery on our current Theragun.
And this is G4
Product Code G4-PRO-PKG-AU
It's G4, I picked up one yesterday. Still a good price imo. Almost went a brad and Ben? But for thirty bucks more I felt this was the safest bet
Replaced the temu job that was very poor when working…and which died a quick death
Is this really worth the money? Genuine question.
Nope. I've got renpho and Bob&Brad. Feel like they do the job. Maybe 90% of what this does at a fraction the cost
But hey - if you're not poor like me it should be a good deal for you.
The triangle grip is really good. You can massage pretty much the whole body easily, especially the back. And it doesn't stall when you apply pressure.
I took the plunge last year upgrading from my renpho one, and it's leagues better, the renpho one just vibrates at higher setting if I'm being honest 😂 I wouldn't say 90% like the last comment.
Good to know. The back is probably the main area I need it for.
Pretty sure if you get the chance to compare side by side the theragun will be able to handle applying much more pressure before it stalls
In the Theragun range, the Pro, even it is an older generation model, beats the rest in terms of quality. I own a Pro G4 and an Elite G4, on paper the difference is adjustable head, replaceable battery and range of message heads.
The motor in Theragun Pro is most quiet in their range, it is much more solid in assembly. The Pro was 1yr with me, 1yr with my mum, the Elite is what most shops (physio) use economically
I guess now we all know @Donmega123 lives by the ’anything is a sex toy if you’re brave enough’ motto.
Well Joe Rogan is a fan
Despite appearances it's not the ultimate fanny hammer.
this brand has some crazy mark ups lol
Thanks had to grab one at that price
Got one after trying some of the KMart and Renpho options.
As someone who had to spend 30+ minutes everyday using the spiky ball, this has been a lifesaver. Actually getting into the meat vs vibrations.
I do so love a product that knows its way around meaty vibrations
I got the g5 today from jbhi fi. They priced matched and i used the $30 off perks voucher to bring to $289.
thru online chat?
Yes online chat and shaver shop reference.
Damn. Online chat would not price match for me.
@Jhonka: I went in store, asked to price match the Theragun pro at JB. Store was a bit busy so the girl checked briefly the name of the product on my phone displaying the shaver shop website. Got the G5 at $319
@Bubbleshark: Thank you!
Saw your comment and decided to give a store a call (after unsuccessfully getting a PM via chat this morning) and got the G5. $305 in the end with Bupa Rewards!
Using this reference? Would appreciate a response
Is online chat open till late?
is the G5 you got better than this deal?
I assume they got the G5 Pro. In which case it’s certainly better, but not by much.
Nah didn't work as they said that this is a g4 and not a g5
Beat me to it.
Did the same thing last time but you hot a better deal because they did PM for 499 at the time of deal.
They did PM over the phone for me.
Nice one 👍
ya they didn't pm for me as well, only offer for g4…
for g5 they only offer $543.6
I’ve had the RecoverFun massage gun since before Covid and it’s done wonders. Great product at a normal ‘uninflated’ price.
https://recoverfun.com/products/recoverfun-plus-upgraded-str…
Price has gone up considerably since the initial release but still a lot cheaper than others.
Seconded. Have two recoverfun massage guns and they work a treat. Much better than the other cheap options as they don’t stop when you push down into the muscles.
anyone know what is the upgrade you get from
g4,g5,g6?
also the difference models in each gen e.g pro, plus, prime, elite etc
Force applied before it will stall, travel distance of gbr stroke, spare battery with the pro. Moveable arm with the pro. Newer LCD and auto workout modes on newer models.
is elite better than pro?
what is good about moveable arm?
so many models, hard to know what is difference
The pro has a different motor. Elite will deliver up to 40lbs of force, the pro can deliver up to 60lbs.
The pro has a moveable arm which means you can get a better position on some muscle groups. That being said the triangle shape is pretty good anyways at getting most places.
Pro has a changeable battery. It’s effectively meant for professionals so they can use it while having the other battery on charge. Such that it has unlimited run time as the battery charges faster than it is depleted by the gun.
Can someone share their invoice for this please if you don't mind?
Purchased 1 of these from this deal. Gets used daily for at least 10 minutes.
Hasn't missed a beat.
Does exactly the same as a Theragun for a 1/10 the price.
Yes also have daily access to Theraguns etc.
I'm glad you liked what you bought.
But this is not "exactly the same" as a Theragun.
It's not even the same type of product.
Theraguns are percussive massage guns. What you bought is a vibration massage gun. You can educate yourself here: https://www.shavershop.com.au/blog/how_to__choose_between_pe…
This is like someone saying, "don't buy that oven, I bought this microwave for 1/10 the price and it cooks food just as well".
Mate i use Theraguns daily.
This does the exact same job even more so on tight tendons etc.
I don't care how you "WHIP" the cream, so long as it gets the result.
Yes. I have/immediate family have had Shoulder Replacement, Hip Replacemnet. Knee reconstructions etc. I know whats going on for rehab and prehab protocols.
Mate I use microwaves daily.
It does the exact same job heating up food, even more so when I'm in a hurry.
I don't care how you "WHIP" the cream, so long as it gets the result.
Yes. I have/immediate family have cooked whole chickens, lamb roasts, etc. I know what's going on for heating up food.
Just buy a microwave it's 1/10 the price of an oven.
Donot buy any other cheap brand as theragun subsitute they are miles apart. I got 2 different amazon ones and returned both once got theragun i will never go back to any other one. Zero competition donot pump cheaper massage guns tyres all know they not worth it . At this price its a no brainer anyways
You čan get some nice adult toys attachments for it. Missus loves it.
Would this be good for back pain?
According to the Theragun FanBoys, yes.
It's good for massaging back muscles.
Whether massaging back muscles will actually help with your back pain is probably a question for you doctor/physio.
Great device at a great price, I got this for $800 back in 2022. I use it every day.
Anywhere to get discounted shaver shop gift cards?
Thank you OP. The Theragun is great and this is a good price.
This is my second time buying a Theragun as the previous batteries died under a year. It likely still works but have no way of knowing with no working battery.
Just fair warning that there is only 90 days warranty on batteries and there is no way to purchase a replacement battery.
Just fair warning that there is only 90 days warranty on batteries and there is no way to purchase a replacement battery.
wow that sucks..
which essentially makes these throwaway devices once the batteries die
what type of batteries they used that only works for 1 year?
what is your previous model you got and how much paid?
knowing about how crap the battery life is, do you have concern same thing will occur?
There are some reddit articles stating there are four batteries in the pack. Also, that people hack replace or fix the battery but I'd be too scared to do anything like that.
My previous model was the same G4 and I paid either full price or close to full price at Rebel sport.
Yes I'm concerned it will die again. I'm not sure what I'll do if it does.
I'm glad it comes with two batteries however as I can put one into our existing Theragun too.
Seems like G4 is a better deal than G5 as it includes two batteries.
Just Grabbed one of these thanks OP! The theragun is great! The pro destroys my wahl stick one I’ve had for years now by a long shot!
Is the Theragun Elite G5 same? better? worse? than this? Amazon have it for sale. $599 down to $373
Did anyone who purchased this receive the G4 model? I've been sent the G5 which was a nice surprise. Though I was more keen on the G4 for the double battery
Haven't received mine, but would your G5 still be covered by warranty? As your invoice would say G4, and they could not honour it?
I received G4 , though im concerned about the battery life.
Full overnight charge and after 20 use mins its only showing a quarter charge left.
Will test the second battery tonight.
Mine arrived and is the G4.
I was actually ok with that because I thought having 2 batteries was good and like the seperate charging base but now also concerned about the long term battery life.
I was sent the G5 Pro as well! Nice surprise indeed.
Dammnit, missed out on the deal. hopefully they go on sale again
$10 off first timer?
