Great sale

First of all, was a great sale price! The site was very easy to navigate. It took me longer to write this review, than it did to order the revolution.

I live in Southeast Alaska

I live in Southeast Alaska, even if shipping wont go as far as our state, we have e a Barge system, "freight forwarding". But reasoning behind not fulfilling my order is it was like shipping to a company and not an individual, but same could be said about using UPS. Second it might void the warranty, even though its their job like any other shipping company, as well as anyone who accepts a package accepts the condition it arrived in. I was excited to finally buy one of these, but feel let down without any solid reasoning that I believe should prevent my purchase, and a special circumstance or someone willing to work with me to help me purchase this home gym setup would be great, rather than a supervisor saying no without trying to go higher in the chain to figure out if the buck stops there.

I'm so sorry to hear you ran into difficulty.  It looks like you spoke to a sales rep, so they would have up to date information.  I will pass this on as feedback so that the company is aware of the issue. - Bowflex Team

I’ll never buy bow flex again

I’ll never buy bow flex again. Recalled my $500 dumbbells. I sent them back received a $120 credit. So buying the same weighted ones now are $800 on top of the $380 I lost on my old ones returned.

Hi Aaron,

Product recalls are conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and are designed to prioritize customer safety. As part of this process, remedies are provided according to the program terms established for the recall, which may include a refund, replacement option, or credit depending on the claim details submitted. 

Thank you so much for expressing your thoughts.

Repeat customer smooth online shopping experience

Online shopping experience at Bowflex for Xtreme home gym was great again (recently purchased a treadmill)! Their site is very informative and the Xtreme home gym was on sale at good value price point. Ordering process is easy and efficient.

Worst customer service of all time

Worst customer service of all time. I have been waiting on a box for a safety recall since 06/2025. I keep reaching out and they keep telling me they don't have an update. I am not allowed to print my own label or ship the safety recalled product back in my own box. I would never purchase a product from this company again. They are great at taking your money, but terrible at standing behind their product when it is a safety recall. So, I have had their product for almost a year and I am told not to use it for safety reasons, but they will not allow the safety recall to move forward.

I'm so sorry to hear you ran into difficulty.  This one has never been scanned by FedEx, so they have not been sent back to us under the label we provided.  We do need to receive the dumbbells in order to honor our part of the recall. - Bowflex Team

Communication improvement

It took a long while to get my recall accepted and replaced, but it was received as promised. I haven’t had any problems outside the recall replacement.

I ordered an elliptical a few minutes ago. I received this email to rate you on how you did but I haven’t even received a confirmation email for my order. Seems a little backwards. It really bothers me that companies are so concerned about ratings but should be more focused on service first.

I'm sorry to hear you didn't get your order confirmation.  They usually happen automatically immediately after the order, so you shouldn't have gotten the review request first.  I've sent another order confirmation for you in case you never received it. - Bowflex Team

Nicole was an amazing customer service representative. She went way and beyond what is normal in sales. She has definitely made my experience shopping with Bowflex the best ever. Give her a raise before someone else steals her from you.

My welcome50 code did not work when trying to order my treadmill. Customer service told me I had to call Sales, and I even questioned that but she assured me they could help me. When I got to sales, because it was financed, he could not cancel it. He told me I may need to call customer service for a credit after the fact. As a new customer, can you imagine how stressful this became? Three calls in one day and a extended hold. I expect this from a lower brand at times, but not Bowflex.The lady and gentlemen were nice, but getting my issue resolved was the goal and that did not happen.
