The only 2 things wrong with this situation is it requires batteries every 3 weeks...so best to just go ahead and spend another 100.00 on the 3 year extended warranty and the ac adapter will be thrown in free and the display does not light up so you have to be in an area where there is plenty of light if you want to see what your doing as far as time..speed..etc.
I spent a few days doing some online research on which bike would give me the best value. I usually read Amazon reviews before purchasing something, but this Gold's Gym bike wasn't on Amazon. Luckily, I also happened to skim through Walmart.com before making my final decision, and I came across this the Power 390. This bike offers much more than other bikes do at this price. I will agree with other reviewers and admit that the fan is basically useless, and while buying an external AC adapter can be a hassle, your total price you will spend is still better than what you would pay elsewhere for a bike of this caliber. You can find the AC adapter on Amazon for about $25. In the end, I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a casual exercise bike to ride while watching TV, reading a book, etc.
Excellent bike for the money. Easy to assemble. Buy a $20 "ProForm 6-Volt AC Power Adapter" (online at Walmart) instead of using batteries. 90 day warranty, so check it out asap., or buy the optional Walmart warranty...My wife and I are completely satisfied.
The only workout machine I ever bought that didn't end up as a clothes rack. Sort of hard to assemble (I would reccomend a helper during assembly). The bike in comfortable for my big butt, used it 30 minutes on my first workout, didn't even know I was working out (until I tried to get out of bed the next day!!!). It's so quiet, I would call it SILENT. Or plug your iPod or iPhone into the built in speakers (connection cord included). Great assembly instructions, probably written by a women who actually put one together. Also good brief instructions on how to properly utilize the machine for beginning workouters...workoutees ? Great machine for watching TV while you workout because it's so silent, or read a book because both your hands are available, unlike a treadmill or elliptical Delivery was to my front door, arrived two days earlier than promised. Haven't lost any weight yet though, it's only been a week. Although I did work up a sweat during assembly.
The bike was easy to assemble and set up. The materials feel as good as any exercise bike I've used in the gym. The only weaknesses I see is that the display isn't back lit so using the bike in low light can be difficult unless you don't need to see the screen display. I also wish that the heart rate monitor wasn't inconsistent in measuring heart rate. The monitor tends to jump around a bit when I use it but that could be due to my hand placement. Otherwise this is a great way to raise the heart rate and warm up the muscles. The seat is comfortable and the mechanics are very smooth.
Good solid product. The comments about the LED screen being too dim are not accurate to me. Even if you have low lighting it shows up bright. The only time I can't see it well is when it's dark. Also wanted to comment that Ship To Store was free and I had my product from final mouse click to in my home in 5 days.
I brought this home and assembled it today. Right out of the box I could see that I had one with a few manufacturers' defects: the holes in the front stabilizing bar were placed so that the leveling feet don't even sit on the floor once installed. The handlebars are wiggly and one was missing an end cap. A call to the toll-free number for customer service was met with very congenial help, however, and they are shipping out replacement parts right away. So, okay, I can handle that. Every once in awhile there's going to be a bad apple, right? So as the previous commenter noted, it does not come with an ac adapter, but there is a little insert that gives you a toll-free number to call to order one, except that it doesn't tell you what to expect to pay for one. And after all that work putting it together, I wanted to be able to use it NOW. So I bought new batteries and installed them, overjoyed to hear a nice satisfactory little whirring sound - power at last! - and then I noticed a very disconcerting constant high-pitch noise. One of those really faint but really high pitch noises that not everybody can hear but which will pierce your head if you CAN hear it - that kind. There's no "off" button for this bike, and since my ears are bleeding (or it feels like it) so I can't wait for it to shut down on its own (will it? or will it burn down my batteries? I don't know!) the only way I can MAKE IT STOP, is to take off one of the battery covers and break off the power supply. I don't know if an ac adapter will fix that or not. It would be very hard to exercise with that noise in my ears. Another phone call to customer service coming up....
I got the bike home and put it together without a problem, but, it went downhill from there. The display is so dim that it is very hard to read. You couldn't specify the time that you want to ride. For my Physical Therapy, I am to ride without resistance to begin. This bike defaults to a setting that doesn't allow me to select the time, and it goes to one of the programmed rides that has varying levels of resistance. I am very disappointed with this product. I had my last bike for more than 10 years and I am so sorry that I am now stuck with this one.
This is a "worst buy" I bought it because I have back problems. When I sit on the bike to use it the frame slides apart and there is no tightening it to prevent this from happening no matter how hard I turn the knob. (Even tried pliers)., so till the end of 20 minutes of use I am stretching my legs to the limit to pedal and end up with a backache. And in order to slide the frame closer together you basically have to pick the bike up (it weighs a ton). It was easy to assemble, but you either use 4 "D-cell" batteries to power the monitors or purchase their adapter to the tune of $73, or you can get a "free" adapter with the purchase of an extended warrarnty which costs $99. So buyer beware. Keep your reciept!!
First off, the Dept. manager of sporting goods was tremendous. Knowlegeable and professional. They put this product together solid. When we got it home and in place, I turned it on and it WORKED!....For about 10 seconds and the control panel died. Then the agravation started. Tried calling Gold's Gym service center. Three times...put on hold.. by electronic voice...each time for over 50 min. to no avail. Never would answer. Then found a so called live chat. They were useless. Called Walmart back, again very professional and they told me to just bring it back. I did, and ordered a Schwinn exercise bike. Now waiting. I would NEVER ever buy a Gold's Gym product again. They are the WORST!
