Review Icon FranksWildYears reviewed Gym Equipment in FitnessBlowout :
One of my beer league hockey buddies has a rule that every piece of equipment that you purchase should have multiple uses in order to maximize its effectiveness and justify the prices they charge for them.

He says that he has an excellent treadmill that doubles as a drying rack for his sweaty hockey gear. He also notes that he hasn't used it as a tread mill since the month after he bought it.

Review Icon marryjonhson reviewed Gym Equipment in FitnessBlowout :
"I wanted to buy a treadmill, but wasn't sure what to get because of my artificial knees...the staff was, first, very helpful online with a live chat and them when I called to order, more than helpful with picking out a machine that would be safe for my knees. I highly recommend Fitness blowout.com if you aren't sure what you should get."

Review Icon WaltBochenek reviewed Marcy PL-43211 Upright Mag Cycle in Exercise Bikes:
I have this bike, and I’m satisfied with it, but I’m extremely happy with this company, Impex. They stand behind their products! When I had a problem with this bike, they sent me new parts, free, without asking when I bought the bike! (I had used it for less than the warranty period, but since it had sat unused until my other bike was no good, it was actually past the warranty.) When it turned out these parts weren’t sufficient to fix it, they sent me a new mainframe, basically a new bike, at no cost! (They do sometimes get orders wrong, but they do correct them quickly and don’t ask you to return the wrong order.)

Review Icon smt reviewed 24 Hour Fitness in Fitness Facilities:
FRAUD, CHEATS..I can't believe this buisness is surviving after the way they are cheting their members who are trying to leave or not continue their membership after free trial.
I took a free 1 month trial and discontinued my membership exactly 1 day before last date. After 1 week i saw they charged me for the 2nd mnth and then refunded the second mnth. the original joining fee and first month charge of $85 was never returned. I had to call them twice and then they told me that it was an 'error' . They finally returned the original charge after 2 weeks.
my wife was a regular member and left at th same time, they told her to freeze the account instead without any penalty incase she wants to return. After 1 mnth we find out they are charging our credit card with 62$ for a training class that she used to go to. When we talked to them and wanted to cancel her membership all together, they said we have to give '30 day notice', so they would charge us 42$ for the next month before changing the status of her membership from 'freeze' to 'cancel'.

BEWARE--DO NOT FALL FOR FREE TRIAL, FREEZE, READ THE FINE PRINT OF THEIR CONTRACT..IT'S fishy

Review Icon lroger4 reviewed LA Fitness in Workout Centers/Clubs/Exercise:
I joined LA Fitness 19 months ago and wanted to cancel my membership. "Well I'll just knock this out on line.", I thought. I had changed my billing information on line before so not problem right? WRONG!!!

When I signed into my account and checked the selection to cancel my membership and they wanted to show me a video...Then they wanted to know why I wanted to cancel...I pressed next...I was told that to complete my cancellation I had to print out a form and mail it to their office in Irvine, CA...WHAT!!?? This is just customer harassment! So I printed out the form from the web site... The form came out with printing so small it would take an electron microscope to read it!

Having had enough of this. I drove down to the Gym to cancel my membership in person...Who was I kidding? It was a Saturday and the only person that could cancel my membership was the manager who wouldn't be in until Monday. That's Odd, I established my membership on a Saturday? I can’t come in on a Monday or any day during the work week that is why I was cancelling in the first place! At least the young lady could print a readable copy of their form... Hopefully I have done everything to cancel membership and I can get rid of these corporate leaches.

So I rate this corporation - an F for FAILURE! Poor customer service. Poor on-line business practices.

I recommend you never give these vampires access to your checking account or debit card number. A credit card can be cancelled and new credit reestablished easier than those other accounts.. All you really have to do is report your credit card lost to do that.

P.S.. I have to agree the music stinks, The L.A.F. I used always had broken machines. their personal trainers were good but a little flighty, I mean broken appointments or you're paying for a 30 minute session, not cheap, and they double book and throw in another customer during your time...

The locker rooms suck. They have cheaply constructed half lockers that barely fit your shoes, and they carpet the damn floors! What idiots! I have watched as guys wrung their swim suits out on the floor and gave themselves pedicures in the locker room disgusting. Its a Petri dish for disease.
