Kyota | Kansha M878 4D
The Kansha M878 is the Kyota massage chair for tall users, rated to 6 ft 9 in. The fit range starts at 5 ft 4 in. and the seat holds up to 300 lbs. Adjustable shoulder airbags squeeze in from each side, so the fit tightens on a narrower frame. A 4D back mechanism moves up and down, side to side, in and out, and changes speed. It covers your back and your glutes. Three shiatsu rollers run under each foot, and the calf wells knead and oscillate. It weighs 323.4 lbs. and comes in Grey/Black or Gold/Tan. Behind the backrest, 2 in. of clearance is enough.
Fit is the part of this chair worth a second paragraph. The Kansha takes a user as tall as 6 ft 9 in. and one as short as 5 ft 4 in. That is seventeen inches of span. Height alone does not settle whether a chair fits, though. Across the seat it runs 23 in. at the shoulders and 20 in. at the hips over a 17 in. seat depth, and the shoulder airbags adjust inward from there, so the top of the chair closes on a narrower frame. Before the first pass TrueFit body scanning measures your back, so the rollers land where your own shoulders sit. Complete Calf kneading and oscillation runs in the calf wells, with three rollers under each foot below them. An Integrated Air Ionizer sits behind a small vent near the headrest, and Premium Bluetooth speakers sit in the cabin beside it. Weightless Zero Gravity Recline drops the backrest and lifts the footrest, so the knees sit roughly level with the chest. Zero Wall Fit slides the seat forward as the backrest goes down, so the chair needs 2 in. behind it.
Under the upholstery
One backrest has to work for a 5 ft 4 in. user and a 6 ft 9 in. user. The adjustable shoulder airbags are how the Kansha manages it, and the 4D equipment below is what they are adjusting around.
The build
The fit range shapes the whole Kansha specification, and the eight items that make it up are standard on both colourways.
Closer look
Weightless Zero Gravity Recline takes the backrest down and the footrest up. Rocking Technology then moves the whole chair back and forth in a metronome pattern once you are settled. Because the seat travels forward through the recline, the gap behind the backrest holds at 2 in. in every position the chair reaches, and that figure is what decides whether a chair this size can live against a wall.
The Kansha runs from a Color Menu-Driven Remote whose full-colour display carries a menu interface, so the options are read off a screen and not off a printed panel. Intensity is set on a scale numbered 3 to 7. Intelligent Voice Command and Control covers the same ground spoken aloud, and the Kansha app on Apple and Android devices is a third route to the same chair.
The seat figures are the ones to check before anything else on a chair this size. Seat depth is 17 in., hip width is 20 in. and shoulder width is 23 in., and the rated user runs from 5 ft 4 in. to 6 ft 9 in. at up to 300 lbs. TrueFit body scanning maps your back at the start of a session and sets the roller path against what it measured, and the adjustable shoulder airbags handle the rest of the fit at the top of the seat.
Compare
Complete Calf and triple foot roller hardware is common to these three chairs. Scale is where they part: how much chair arrives on the truck, and how tall a user each one is rated to carry.
