is this light weight? My mom will be massaging my dad and i don't want anything heavy for her.

I feel it is light weight. I hold onto it & massage areas for up to the 20 minutes recommended without any problem, then move on to another area. It truly is a good investment!

It says in the product description that it is 1.9 lbs, but to me it feels a bit lighter than a 16 oz hammer. It's not heavy like on of the bigger back massagers; I don't think your mom will have a problem with that. The head broke free from the stem after I used it the first couple times; it was still usable when I popped it back in and taped it. If she won't be applying a lot of pressure at an angle though, this might not be a big issue for you (I press hard).

It is ergonomically styled in my opinion so that even though it weighs over one pound, preferred by vibe users who are using it for personal types of massage, it also feels manageable for those suffering from things like arthritis pain as the weight is distributed in a way that it hardly feels as heavy as it is.

Yes it is very light and easy to handle. I use it on my back and I've had 4 1/2 hours of surgery. It is a great help in getting the blood circulating at the end of a tough day. I think your Mom will be pleased.

Yes, it's lightweight. If you pick up the cup by itself it barely feels like you're holding anything at all - that's how light it is. Or at least that's how it felt to me. I've only ever used cups made of heavier material, so it was definitely a surprise for me.

Lightweight. You will have no problem lifting it into the cabover bed. Don't know exact weight though.

It is very light. If she needs to balance herself I would say no. But it is very easy to push to get around. I love mine. I use it a lot

It is pretty light weight. I have my table covered all week long. Only remove it on the weekend as my kids like to have lunch outside.

I'd say less than 5 lbs. My mom is very petite and doesn't have trouble using it.

It should be ok. My Mom weighs slightly more, but I suspect it will work well.

I am so sorry, I gave this as a gift so I cannot weigh it for you, but I can tell you that it is not heavy at all. It would be no problem for a young, middle-aged, or even an elderly person to be able to lift it. My mom is 90 years old and does not have any problem with lifting. Hope this helps!!...

That's how my Dad uses it. He seems to prefer it this way. He weighs around 290 Lbs.

It's pretty light weight. You will see the actual weight on the items description.

I have this model and I'd say it's less than a pound, so theoretically it's not that heavy. Of course the longer you use it the heavier it feels since your arm gets tired, but that's a separate issue...goodluck

It is not heavy it's actually more light to medium. It will keep you warm but not over heat you.

We have had our Homedics massager for over 5 years now without any problems. My husband weighs about 200 lbs. and uses it frequently. It also gets used by other family members on a regular basis without any problems but they are much smaller. From my experience I can't see why weight would be a factor because the massaging balls are only on the back and not on the seat where most of the weight would be. Hope this helps.

No - not light weight and not heavy - the weight helps with the pressure in the needed area
