Makes me tired - but in a good way.

I bought this to use on my desk chair to improve my posture and make working at my desk less sedentary. Because you have to subtly but constantly work at maintaining your position your muscles will definitely feel it until you get used to it. All in all I'm very happy with it and it was worth the price just for the laughs the first time I sat on it!More detail ...

Inconsistent quality: great idea but potentially dangerous

I first used the TRX Professional at my gym (with a personal trainer) and was happy with the results and convenience. I decided to purchase my own TRX for home use on those days when I can't make it to the gym.



I purchased my TRX directly from Fitness Anywhere and was surprised that after about a year of infrequent use the right cam buckle started to slip. A brief internet search and a review of some of the reviews here on Amazon shows that other customers have experienced the same issue (cam buckle slippage). This is not only problematic because of the cost and promised quality of the item but because it's dangerous; I fell to the floor when the cam recently suddenly slipped in the middle of a rep.



When I contacted Fitness Anywhere to inquire about simply replacing the defective buckle (a presumably inexpensive replacement part which I would have paid for) they responded that my product must be counterfeit. When I replied that I'd ordered it from them and gave the order number they responded that my product was outside the one-year warranty period and that they would not replace it. They then offered me a paltry 20% discount on a new unit though I'm not sure why anyone would spend nearly $200 on a product that may or may not be as defective as the first.



For the record it sounds as if at least one other Amazon customer with a two-year-old TRX with defective cam-buckle actually received a replacement from Fitness Anywhere. I've written to them once more and asked them to at least be consistent with their treatment of other customers and hope they will take a look at a picture of the defective buckle on my unit. But based on their responses so far I am not hopeful. I should note that I have made three purchases from Fitness Anywhere in as many years and have widely recommended the unit. I'd have hoped that Fitness Anywhere would treat loyal customers better and I recommend any potential customers consider this information before spending hundreds of dollars on anything this company sells.



I will post more information about their response once the issue is (or is not) resolved.More detail ...

Cheap product

too bad .... kids don't need these long.

but they do need to reach the ground ... they absolutely will not fit 20" bikes they miss by 4" ... 12" bike yes.

they are also so flimsy if your child is not coordinated and able to learn fast they will not last.

if road are rough I imagine they would not last but a few days

I would also question their safetyMore detail ...

Worth the price but somewhat flimsy plastic wheel

The training wheels are sufficient as advertised but they may not hold up for long. If your youngster is just starting out they may not last through his or her entire learning experience. They certainly won't be able to be passed down to a second child learning to balance on two wheels unless the first one was very light in weight and mastered it quickly. Still though probably a good purchase for the price in that you can get at least two sets of these for the price of a more durable and quality set.



They mount easily and you can assemble them with the proper tools while your toddler waits and enjoy the entire experience of putting them together and trying them out together.More detail ...

Solid Product - Recommended

Bought these for my 4-year-old. As my title said a very solid well made item adustable as he becomes more balances as he learns to ride.



Almost an out of the part home run except I wish they threw in two washers so I don't have to keep tightening the bolts as often... I'll just have to dig up a couple of my own. Other than that minor annoyance it is a superior product and I do recommend it!More detail ...
