Human Touch | WholeBody 8.0

Human Touch WholeBody 8.0 Massage Chair

The WholeBody 8.0 is built on different hardware from the Novo chairs above it, and Human Touch is explicit about what that hardware is. The massage robot is 3D FlexGlide, an orbital mechanism, and Human Touch publishes the massage intensity as moderate. There is no S-track, no L-track and no track length on this spec sheet, because FlexGlide is not described that way. What is on the sheet is a maximum load weight of 285 lb, a height range of 5 ft 0 in. to 6 ft 2 in., seven auto-wellness programs, and patented warm air technology.

The other thing this chair does that none of the Novo chairs do is move. The base swivels 55 degrees, the ottoman retracts, and the whole chair weighs 114 lb, roughly a third of a Super Novo X. Upright it takes 44 in. L x 28 in. W x 40 in. H, which is a footprint a spare bedroom can absorb. BodyMap PRO lets you press where you want the massage to work, a CirQlation figure-eight calf massager works the calves in an upward wave-like motion, and the headrest pad slides to adjust. It comes in Charcoal or Bone SofHyde.

Inside the chair

Four Published Parts of the WholeBody 8.0

Human Touch describes this chair in its own vocabulary. Reading it against a Novo spec sheet is the fastest way to see where the two families part company.

3D FlexGlide Orbital Massage
Human Touch's spec table names the massage robot as 3D FlexGlide Massage Technology and describes the motion as orbital, working the back, neck and shoulders. Orbital means the roller path is a circular sweep across the muscle, where a tracked chair runs its rollers along a rail. Human Touch publishes no track type and no track length for it, and states the massage intensity as moderate, which is a useful number to have before you buy.
Intensity: moderate
🌡
Warm Air Technology
Heat arrives as warm air, with no heating element behind the pad, and Human Touch calls the method patented. No patent number and no application number is published anywhere on the page, so we report the claim as Human Touch words it and do not stand behind the patent status ourselves. No heat zone count and no temperature range is published either.
Patented, number not published
👈
BodyMap PRO
Human Touch's instruction for BodyMap PRO is to press where you want to feel better and let the chair work that area. In practice it turns the controller into a map of your own back: you point at the spot, and the program concentrates the orbital massage there. That is a different way of driving a chair from picking a named program off a list.
Point at the spot
🔄
Swivel Base and Retractable Ottoman
The base swivels 55 degrees, so the chair turns toward a television or away from a doorway without being dragged across the floor. The ottoman retracts when it is not in use and carries the foot and calf massager, including the CirQlation figure-eight massager that works the calves in an upward wave-like motion. The headrest pad slides to sit where your neck actually is.

Warranty and protection

How Human Touch Coverage Is Actually Structured

Human Touch publishes a single headline warranty figure on each product page and a three-part breakdown on its consumer warranty schedule. The two do not say the same thing, and the gap between them is where the extended plans live.

The Position the Frame Spends Its Life In

Flat out, the chair runs 66 in. L x 28 in. W x 29 in. H and wants 9 in. of clearance behind it. That is the position the frame and the recline mechanism spend most of their working life in, and Human Touch covers that hardware under three separate terms: 3 years structural, 2 years parts, 1 year labor. The product page headline reads 3-Year Limited Warranty and refers to the structural term alone. Labor is the term that catches people out, because a covered part failing in year two is a free part with a paid service visit attached.

  • 9 in. of clearance behind the chair to reach this position
  • Warranty schedule: 3 years structural, 2 years parts, 1 year labor
  • The product page headline covers the structural term only
  • The Novo chairs share the shape at 5 years structural, 3 years parts, 1 year labor

Consumer use

The Plans Are Written for a Chair Like This One

One person, one chair, one living room: this is the use Human Touch writes its extended plans around. What a plan carries is parts and in-home service for consumer use, and that wording is the whole of it. It is end-user coverage, so a chair going into a clinic, a gym or a treatment room sits outside the terms before the first program runs. For the WholeBody 8.0 the two options are the 3-Year STANDARD plan and the 5-Year STANDARD plan.

  • STANDARD covers the WholeBody 8.0, the WholeBody 7.1 and the WholeBody ROVE
  • PREMIUM covers the Super Novo 3.0, the Super Novo 2.0 and the Novo Flex
  • ELITE covers the Super Novo X alone, sold only as a five-year term
  • STANDARD and PREMIUM each come in a three-year and a five-year version
  • The ROVE and the Super Novo 2.0 are dropping off the dealer price list, so talk to us first
STANDARD tier Parts and in-home service Commercial use excluded

Exclusions

What Is Left Out Once the Chair Is in the Room

From the day it lands in a room like this one, Human Touch's exclusions are the part worth reading. Normal wear and tear is out, and Human Touch spells that out as foam softening from regular use, fabric wear, leather texture or color variation, creasing and pilling. Damage from animals, rodents, insects or other pests is out. So is damage from power surges, loss of power, a dropped product or a failure to follow the operating instructions. Shipping damage is handled separately again: it does not count as a defect and must be reported and documented at the time of delivery.

  • Foam softening, fabric wear, creasing and pilling count as normal wear
  • Leather texture or color variation over time is excluded
  • Damage from animals, rodents, insects or other pests is excluded
  • Power surges, loss of power and a dropped product are excluded
  • Shipping damage must be reported and documented at delivery

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Both run 3D FlexGlide, both are rated 285 lb and 5 ft 0 in. to 6 ft 2 in., both weigh 114 lb and both swivel 55 degrees. The published differences are the program count and the headrest: the 8.0 carries seven auto-wellness programs against the 7.1's five auto-massage programs, and Human Touch lists a headrest pad with sliding pillow adjustment on the 8.0 only. The 7.1 comes in three colors where the 8.0 comes in two, and the 7.1 publishes a seat height of 19 in. where the 8.0 publishes seat width and depth alone.
Human Touch publishes 5 ft 0 in. to 6 ft 2 in. and a maximum load weight of 285 lb. The seat is 21 in. wide and 18 in. deep. That 6 ft 2 in. ceiling is specific to the WholeBody chairs. If the user is taller, the Novo platform publishes 6 ft 9 in., and the Novo Flex is the least expensive chair that documents it.
FlexGlide is Human Touch's orbital massage mechanism, published here as 3D FlexGlide Massage Technology, with a circular sweep across the back, neck and shoulders. The Novo chairs are described in completely different terms: an HT Flex S- and L-Track with rollers running from the neck to the glutes. Human Touch publishes no track type or track length for FlexGlide at all. They also publish this chair's massage intensity as moderate, which no Novo spec sheet states.
Human Touch's method of delivering heat as warm air, and they describe it as patented. No patent number or application number appears on the page, so we repeat the claim as their wording and leave the patent status to them. Human Touch publishes no heat zone count and no temperature range for it.
It lets you press where you want the massage to concentrate and then runs the program there. Human Touch's own instruction is to press where you want to feel better and let the chair do the rest. It is a targeting control on the remote, so you point at an area of your back and the program name never comes into it.
55 degrees of rotation without moving the chair across the floor. On a 114 lb chair that is a practical feature: you turn the seat toward the room or away from a doorway with your feet down. None of the three Novo chairs publishes a swivel.
Human Touch publishes three separate terms for the WholeBody 8.0: 3 years structural, 2 years parts, 1 year labor. The product page headline reads 3-Year Limited Warranty and refers to the structural term only. This is a shorter base warranty than the Novo chairs, which carry 5 years structural, 3 years parts and 1 year labor. Labor is one year on both.
The STANDARD tier, which lists the WholeBody 8.0, the WholeBody 7.1 and the WholeBody ROVE. It comes in two terms: the 3-Year STANDARD plan and the 5-Year STANDARD plan. Both extend parts and in-home service for consumer use. Both are end-user coverage and exclude commercial use, so a chair going into a clinic or a gym falls outside the terms.
Upright it occupies 44 in. L x 28 in. W x 40 in. H. Reclined it occupies 66 in. L x 28 in. W x 29 in. H and needs 9 in. of clearance behind it. At 28 in. wide it is the narrowest of the five Human Touch massage chairs, six inches narrower than any Novo chair, which is what makes it viable in a bedroom or an office.
In one carton, 58 in. L x 31 in. W x 34 in. H at 144 lb gross. Standard To Your Door delivery is free and leaves it at your front door, first floor only. The White Glove upgrade adds first-floor delivery, assembly in the room of your choice and packaging removal, and Human Touch charges less for it on the two WholeBody chairs than on the Novo chairs. Full delivery terms are on the Super Novo X page and apply here identically.
Two, both in SofHyde upholstery: Charcoal and Bone. Both are the same chair with the same specification. Human Touch labels the choice as a pad set color on its own storefront.
No voltage or wattage, no airbag count, no track type or length, no heat zone count, no manual mode count, no stretch program and no underfoot roller. Bluetooth and an app are not mentioned. No certification statement of any kind appears on the page, so we assert none, and the patent behind the warm air technology is claimed without a number. Ask us about any of these and we will put the question to Human Touch in writing.
