- Is it corded or cordless?
- It is corded. The pump runs on AC mains, so you need an outlet nearby and cannot walk around while wearing the boots.
- How does air compression work here?
- A pump inflates chambers around the feet and calves in sequence, then releases them, repeating the squeeze-and-release cycle. It is the same idea as recovery boots used in sports clinics.
- Can I use it on my arms?
- No. The boots are shaped for feet and lower legs only. Sharper Image sells separate compression products for arms.
- Is $206.99 a good price?
- JCPenney lists it at $206.99 as of November 8, 2026, and it is the only new price shown. Without a longer price history there is no clear discount to point to, so compare against other compression boot brands before buying.
- What comes in the box?
- Expect the pair of boots, the air pump and hose, and the power cord. Check the listing for the exact included parts before ordering.
- Who should skip it?
- Anyone who wants to move around while massaging, or who has circulation problems or a medical condition affecting the legs, should check with a doctor first.
- Where is the Sharper Image Powerboost Boots Air Compression Leg Massager cheapest?
- At JCPenney, for $206.99, as of our latest check.
