recumbrent bike I purchased a recumbrent bike less than 3 years ago. It started to make a loud grinding noise when in use. I reached out to the company and sent videos of the noise it was making.Bottom line I got nowhere. I was told I had to pay for any parts because it's warranty expired. I feel although it was not an expensive bike, I should have gotten more than three years out of it. Was not happy that everything was done by email and could not speak to someone. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT OR COMPANY TO ANYONE!

Lauren was excellent Lauren was excellent. She was very patient with me. The rower I got (sf-rw5515) is functional and cheap, which means its a good "starter machine" to see if you have the dedication and willpower to take up rowing. If you like rowing and can use this machine routinely for awhile, you can always upgrade for a better model later. The only flaw with the machine is that it doesnt count distance. It counts time, strokes, estimated calories burned, and total strokes over the machines life. But for like 200 dollars, its fine.

Contact CS for a basic question Contact CS for a basic question. CS tells me to send proof of purchase and bike serial nmbr. It has no serial nmbr. I wish I would have purchased elsewhere. Their assembly instructns are not complete. If you have not built one before this can cause severe damage. Can cause damage that may not be noticeable immediately. Those who do talk there try to blame problem on it being Chinese made. They are not nice or helpful people. Also beware of spiders coming out of box. Their CS answering system is only a run around of wasting time.

Defective equipment, useless warranty Bought an elliptical from them. after 1 month it did not work. tried to contact them, no real answers, just the generic "your mail has been received and will take up to 2 weeks to respond." They only answered when I involved paypal, but I made the mistake of not elevating the claim through PP and when teh time to do it expired, they stopped answering at all. So, my advice is avoid making business with them, if you did, had a problem and used Paypal to pay them, just get your money back through Paypal's warranty because you won't get them any other way.

Follow up to December review - they're still rotten. This is a follow-up to my December review. They finally contacted me in mid January, 2 full months after I sent a video/audio highlighting the bike issue. They said they would be sending out replacement parts within 1-4 weeks, and would notify me when the parts shipped. It is now early April...nothing. How does a company that has absolutely NO customer service stay in business??? I guess they must sell enough to unsuspecting people (like me). Like lambs to the slaughter.
