Take Bongers anywhere for quick relief of back pain, headaches and tired, sore muscles. Fun and easy to use on yourself and your friends.

I've had ongoing back issues for a few years now, so I was excited to see these at a very reasonable price on Amazon. They work fantastic but one of the two handles has loosend and is slowly deteriorating already! The wood is intact, but the silver ring at the base came unglued two days ago, so that's any easy fix right? And just tonight the metal "rod" is sliding from side to side within the handle! I'm the only one that uses the Bongers, so it's not a matter of over-use, or mis-handling. I already threw my box away, not thinking that one of the two Bongers would do this so quickly. It appeared to be a very sturdy product when I received it last week.
Now I'm afraid to use this on myself as one of the metal rods could launch right out of the handle! I'm contacting the seller to see if I can do a swap-out. If I can get a pair that don't have the same QC issue, this will go up to 5 stars, as it is a great massage tool!
***********UPDATE**** May 13, 2010
After some confusing correspondence with Amazon CS, I sent an email to Bodyback directly and just yesterday I received a replacement pair. This pair is actually different! The Ball-end is still blue, but the steel rod on this pair were a blued-steel and the handles a stained golden-oak color (like the Amazon pic), whereas the first pair I received were a shiny steel with clear stained wood handles. Even the box was different between each pair. It's obvious the replacement pair are of a better quality than the first set and I am extremely pleased!
It took awhile to get the issue resolved, but it IS resolved and I am pounding my aches away!
I've changed my rating from 4 to 5 stars.
Nice but can get tiring

I really enjoy the sensation, I have lower back problems and these seem to help, you just have to be careful where you hit. My only complaint is that my wife can't use it on me all the time.
Fun Stress Relief!

They pack a punch, but it's relief you can't get otherwise. The tools are very flexible...not like drum sticks! They bend slightly when in use. I love this product, and using it can be quite quite comical. It's stress relief for the recipient and the "drummer!" Give them a try, but do not expect the impact to be gentle. I like them. I have no regrets.
