Product Overview
The Maestro 2.0 LE is the pinnacle of massage chair designs in the industry today. The Maestro 2.0 uses the frame of the original Maestro, but in many ways this is a completely new chair and design. A few of the new features include a quieter motor, stronger redesigned stretching programs, improved 4D massage with more noticeable speed variations, redesigned heat function, upgraded professional grade reflexology rollers, new touch screen tablet display, and wireless phone charging station.
-----
Many of these new features are first in class additions to the massage chair industry. Our favorite new feature is the touchscreen tablet display. Integrated touchscreen displays can be found at much lower price points, and despite the incredibly therapeutic massage the Maestro provides it was a key weak point in the original model. What really differentiates this chair, however, is the true kneading massage, localized auto programs, and unparalleled neck and shoulder massage. The chair has a great stretching program, but is a step down in quality from the Paragon as it does not fully lay flat. I would recommenced this chair to a customer looking for the absolute best the massage chair industry has to offer, with the perfect combination of technology and therapeutic massage components available in the industry.
When you start up the chair digital LED lighting shines on the floor and from the sides of the chair signaling you are in a top of the line model. The auto body scan completes a full 3d scan of your back to ensure the massage is specific and therapeutic to your body type. Upon completion of the scan, the massage will start into your neck and shoulders. The tablet will signal you to make any needed adjustments before the massage starts.

One of my favorite components of the new Maestro LE is how the massage comes down onto your neck and shoulder as opposed to simply pressing against the back of your neck. This downward motion provides a unique pressure and breaks down muscle tissue in a way most massage chairs are incapable of doing. Thew new motor designed for the Maestro LE provides a distinctly quieter massage than the original Maestro. In addition, the speed variations during each are immediately noticeable, especially on the lower back programs. This chair has 8 levels of intensity controls to adjust the intensity of the massage from light and gentle, to a true deep tissue massage. The massage is so complex in this chair I found myself forgetting a chair was giving me the massage when I closed my eyes.
-----
Out of any model massage chair in the industry today, the Maestro LE is hands down the best massage components put into a chair for therapeutic purposes. The complexity of the massage, the dramatic speed variations between massage styles, and the ability to work your neck and shoulders better than any chair I have ever tested truly set this model apart.
I really enjoyed all of the new features added to the Maestro 2.0. The quieter motor allows you to enjoy a massage without the noticeable background noise of the massage. The wireless phone charger fits every type of current wireless charge compatible phone model. You will have to remove some phone cases if they are particularly bulky or not compatible with a wireless charger. The Maestro 2.0 also adds a new 4d mechanism that provides dramatic changes in the speed of the massage. My favorite new technology with this chair is definitely the new integrated touchscreen tablet display.
-----
Other technology features also available on the original Maestro include a USB charging port, easy access manual intensity controls, one touch pause button and power button, along with a zero gravity button for instant relaxation.

Therapeutic Benefits
Value and premium price point chairs have a variety of therapeutic benefits that I will not detail on this chair. The Maestro has several features in it that provide specific therapeutic benefits above and beyond most other models. These benefits include high fidelity HD speakers that provide a more immersive experience inside the chair. If you are looking for high quality sound for relaxation or therapeutic purposes including meditation this chair has the highest quality speakers we have tested. Deeper tissue massage on this model also provide better release of tension than other models. The air bags around your rib cage on the Maestro 2.0 offer the simulation of a hug and can help further relax you. The quick pump action on the air bag components provided a better sense of relief. The stretching program on this chair while upgraded over the original Maestro was a little disappointing. The PSI on the air components has a much higher top end than most other massage chair models. We found the air components provided a particularly strong compression therapy for the hip and shoulder complex.
-----
Editor's Note: As I tested this chair, my personal favorite component was the deep tissue neck and shoulder massage. This model chair provides a top down angle on your neck and shoulder unlike any other chair I have tested. I left the chair feeling relaxed all day after my test period.
The Maestro 2.0 offers a variety of customization features integrated into its new tablet display. The best feature is eight total localized auto programs including 4 dedicated programs for the neck and shoulder and 4 auto programs for the lower back. These programs provide more targeted programs that focus on specific areas you need to address. In addition typical manual massage controls the tablet display also allows you to combine different massage styles together, and then target those styles to specific pain points or areas of the body you want to address. Touch screen controls allow you to micro adjust the position of the chair and foot components, change the intensity of the massage, and control the air massage. In addition, you also can adjust the intensity of the air massage at five levels. These massage and air intensity controls are particularly useful for those that want a more gentle massage.
-----
Editor's Note: A little known feature on both versions of the Osaki Maestro is the android and Apple compatible apps for controlling the chair. While this feature is honestly less useful with the new tablet display on this model, it can be helpful as an alternative means of controlling the chair.
The Maestro 2.0 LE comes with a standard 3 year parts and labor warranty included. Although this is a newer model, as it was built on the same body as the original Maestro we believe the new Limited Edition will hold up the same way. The Maestro 1.0 has had a great track record since it's release, with a very low defect rate as compared to other models.

Value
The Maestro 2.0 LE is at the top range of price points for massage chairs in the industry today. While the chair makes many innovations in it's design and provides a stronger massage than any chair in the industry, it is impossible to rate the value at this price point. We are still giving this chair a 3.0 rating due to it's many innovations and its top end finishes.
While the value concerns of this chair are legitimate, the overall score hit out bench mark of 4.5 or higher to give this chair a 5 star rating. This chair simply has too many new and innovative features to be any lower on our list. We love the new technology components, localized auto programs, improved "under the hood" components in the motor, and improved massage complexity. This chair is not cheap and is in the ultra luxury massage chair category, but for those that have the budget this chair will provide an unparalleled massage for many years to come.
