Bowflex.com, Help for the Droopies

by bluehawq Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Feb 01 '02
We started off with the free video and brochure. We did not order this on Bowflex's online store though. It came through the U.S. mail and I found it while searching for freebies one day. This was last year.

Bowflex Online Store: Lightning Fast Shipping

by beckish Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jun 14 '09
My husband and I have long been talking about developing a good workout program and getting in shape. A couple of weeks ago we actually took the first step. Our home gym is ancient and hard to use, so we decided to invest in a new one. Both of us had ...

Shopping at Bowflex Online was a great experience. Wonderful service!

I found that Bowflex was a great place to buy my Bowflex. At http://www.bowflex.com, the website is built very well. It's very easy to navigate, and has very detailed descriptions of all of their products.

When I bought my Power Pro, the...

Surprisingly Quick Delivery

My fiance and I had discussed purchasing a Bowflex for a time after watching the TV infomercial. We went on their website and decided on the least expensive model (PRO) $999.00
I charged it to my charge card. About a week later, perhaps less than a...

by bouffard , Nov 22 '02
I had made my decision to purchase the Bowflex Ultimate unit. I called to place the order and the first thing the sales rep does is start questioning you, trying to talk you into the higher priced machine. Since I had already decided to get that one, it...

Bowflex XLT

by kwalker5 , Feb 27 '06
Shipping of the Bowflex went off without a hitch....however, I felt the Bowflex didn't work me out as hard as free weights or even universal machines. It definitely fatigued my muscles, but I never felt sore the next day, no matter how hard I worked...

Excellent machine, fast delivery, really BAD financing.
by born_leader ,Oct 25 '03
I bought a Bowflex XTL, in September 2002.
It was delivered quickly, everything was included, never had any problems with customer service.
The machine is small, quiet and it looks great.
I was unhappy with the financing, though. The interest rate was horribly high and I had to pay it off right away, rather than over next 30 years. The finance company charges you the interest rate of about $45 a month and deducts only about $3.00 a month of a loan principal. This way you pay-off your Bowflex in 30 to 35 years.
Overall experience - GOOD, financing - REALLY BAD.
It's October 2003, now. I've lost over 40 pounds, gained a ton of muscle and self-confidence. The money I've paid for that machine was the best $1300 I've ever spent.

The Bowflex is a great machine for people who stay motivated.
by lacrosse964 ,Apr 08 '04
This product overall is pretty good. It takes a little while to come in the mail due to all the packages and sometimes doesn't all come in one day. The order came fully equipped with no mistakes or problems but you may have to open many packages to find the instructions and screws... Be prepared for a huge assembly job. You may not need two people but it sure is a big a job. Customer service is satisfactory. They answer your questions well and are friendly but you may be on the phone for 2 minutes waiting. Overall this is a pretty good product and provides a great workout but it is tough.

this is the worst ever. i work in cust srvc and they dont have any.
by barry26 ,Jun 10 '08
DELIVERY SPEED..ORDERED IN MARCH..GOT THEM OVER A MONTH LATER. CUSTOMER SERVICE? THERE IS NONE. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THESE PEOPLE. THEY ARE CHARGING ME TO SHIP THEIR UNOPENED WEIGHTS BACK TO THEM AFTER i CALLED AND CANCELED MY ORDER. OF COURSE THEY DONT SHOW A CALL. WILL TELL ALL MY FRIENDS, FAMILY AND GYM OWNERS I EVER COME IN CONTACT WITH THAT THEY ARE THIEVES. THIS COMPANY OBVIOUSLY THINKS THAT THEY CAN TREAT YOU ANY WAY THEY WANT AND TRULY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU DO NOT ORDER FROM THERE OR PAY THE PRICE. THE WHOLE PRICE.

Buyer beware
by enaevans ,Dec 22 '05
Buyer beware! I purchased a Bowflex Series 3 treadmill in July thru Nautalis online. It quit working the first week of November and I am still waiting on something to be done. After countless calls and emails I am told that it needs a new console and that it is on back order but I should receive it the 2nd week in January. Then I still have to figure out how to install it. Thier warranty "parts and service" is a joke!

Great workout but.....
by arthurjackson ,Jan 21 '06
The good thing about the Bowflex is that it really does give you a great workout. When I first bought mine I was alternating between the Bowflex and free weights but now I've given up my gym membership and use my Bowflex exclusively. It really does give you a great workout and the results are quite noticeable.

The bad news about the Bowflex is that it is very cheaply constructed. There were two recalls which required adaptor kits to fix problems with things falling apart. Even with the adaptors installed you always have problems with screws falling out and such due to holes which don't quite line up correctly, etc. I would have expected better workmanship considering the price.

One note though - I purchased my Bowflex in 2000. Hopefully they've improved the design in the newer models, though I can't confirm whether they have or not.
