Very dissatisfied with the Pro-Form CBC exercise bike. For £700.00 we didn’t expect a professional (gym) quality machine, but we did expect something that was fit for purpose. The longest we have been... See more

What a great exercise bike! It looks lovely and is easily put together. Some times it can be challenging to find the will power when exercising but Ifit’s interactive classes and pre recorded rides... See more

IFit startup problem

Initially the treadmill was unusable as there’s a process you have to go through that’s not documented anywhere on the manual. When I contacted customer services they could not help. Luckily I found a YouTube video from another customer with the answer

Customer service was awful!

Customer service was poor. Shipping date changed and they would not give me an update when this would be.
There was also an offer on at the time for 1 year subscription to ifit free but by the time the treadmill was sent they changed this to 1 month. I had many emails to them and phoned over 4 numbers to get help but everyone kept telling me it was another departments issue. They would not honour the one year subscription as they thought I made it up but lucky I took a photo before purchasing which proved the offer. They still were going to refuse the deal but I also had written confirmation from a sales rep confirmations one year free and they immediately authorised it. Treadmill quality however is great

Get a 5 yr gym membership its cheaper.

Purchased a Proformfitness Tour-De-France 2 bike (TDF 2) did not use it much for the first two years.
When the pandemic started i turned it on and the software updated and corrupted the console making the bike a very large useless doorstop.
I contacted Proformfitness only to be told the bike is discontinued and they do not stock spares and idvised me to contact IFit. IFit told me the same. So i took the bike to the skip.
The bottom line is this bike cost me about £1,400 and i had it for just over two years b4 it stopped working. I could have got 5yrs gym membership for that price.
Rubbish.

Shockingly bad customer support

Treadmill ordered directly from their website and took 5 days to arrive - no problem so far.

Treadmill arrived incomplete so had to contact customer services via their online form (no number advertised although you can get through by calling sales). I eventually received a response with a copy of the user manual (which also was not in the box) advising me to list each part not delivered - there were approx 130 different parts in an exploded diagram in the user manual. I don't think so.

So here we are 3 weeks later. They've collected the treadmill (2 weeks ago) but still have not provided the refund. A response from "customer services" simply asking for more time.

Sales seems to be provided by Proform Fitness UK (whom I spoke to a couple of times trying to resolve this issue) and they couldn't have been nicer and appologetic.

Sadly, customer services seems to be provided by their parent company Icon Health and Fitness and they are simply shocking.

Please read the reviews here and DO NOT BUY from them. If things go wrong, it will need a nightmare to resolve.

Not sure if they want business direct

I ordered a treadmill at the beginning of February and was advised I would have a 3-week wait for my order. At the end of the 3-weeks, I contacted customer services for advice on an ETA. The 1st Customer Service agent advised that the order would need to be escalated as the item was at the courier but the couriers website was down. They advised that they’d call back. No call came. The following day I called back again and was advised the item was actually out of stock completely. The agent came back on email offering some alternatives but sadly the spec was insufficient so we agreed on a refund whilst we looked at our options. They offered no discounts on other models by way of compensation - despite me pointing out that I’d got a 10% code already, which I could use online but couldn’t be used in replacing an existing order.

The refund process was slick and prompt and all emails promised were followed up quickly. The team on that front were very good.

Oddly, a day later the same treadmill I had been told was out of stock was back in stock on the website.

We went to another retailer and got our treadmill next day with a higher spec and for less money.

I sense that the manufacturer would prefer customers to buy from a different retailer than direct as their pricing and delivery proposition is considerably weaker - even on their own models.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are very sorry for the difficulties you encountered when purchasing from us. Whilst we would love for all orders to be simple and seamless for our customers, unfortunately at times we can run into logistical issues or technical glitches which cause delays and issues with orders. Our team always consider the most efficient way of resolving these issues for the customer and on this occasion, cancelling your order and removing the product from stock whilst we rectified the issue was the best course of action at the time. Thankfully our experts sorted the issue pretty quickly and we were able to put the product back into stock on the website, knowing that all orders would go through without a hiccup!
We are pleased to hear you were able to source the machine you were looking for from one of our retailers and wish you all the best on your fitness journey! Thanks - ProForm UK

Still waiting on a order which was…

Still waiting on a order which was meant to be delivered a week ago now. I’ve been in touch and no one is letting me know when it will be delivered and making up excuse why it hasn’t been. All money has left my bank account.

Great service from the team at proform.

Great service from the team at proform.
Equipment ordered online and delivered on time. On set up it was noted that a wheel was missing (not essential to use) but one phone call sorted the problem with a spare part delivered in the next days post.

Excellent product and service

Easy process, delivered when expected. No issues putting together myself (I’m a <5’4” female with no particular strength!). Connected to iFit easily. Nice to have a follow on call from customer services to check all going ok.

Faulty and no sign of repair

Purchased an elliptical machine at the end of September. After setting the machine up and then turning it on, it was determined that the motor was faulty and replacement parts would be sent to an engineer and to wait 7-12 days. To date, after daily, weekly phones calls still not had a response back. Come and pick the machine back up
