RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES

To make your training experience even more efficient and pleasant, we recommend that you add suiting accessories to your fitness equipment. This could be a floor mat, for example, which makes your fitness equipment stand more securely and also protects the floor from falling sweat, but it could also be additional handrails on some treadmills or silicone spray to keep moving parts in good shape.
If you have purchased a fitness machine with pulse training and want to train your heart rate, we strongly recommend that you use a compatible chest strap, as this ensures optimum transmission of the heart rate. You may want to buy additional grips or weights for multi-gyms.

In addition to the statutory warranty, we provide a warranty for every fitness equipment purchased from us according to the following provisions.
Your statutory rights are not affected.
Warranty
The warranty is the first/original buyer and/or any person who received a newly purchased product as a gift from the original buyer.

Warranty period
The warranty periods, shown on our webshop, begin on delivery of the fitness equipment. The respective warranty periods for your equipment can be found on its product website.
Repair Costs
According to our choice, there will either be a repair, a replacement of individual damaged parts, or a complete replacement. Spare parts, that have to be mounted while assembling the equipment, have to be replaced by the warrantee personally and are not a part of the repair. After the expiration of the warranty period for repair costs, a pure parts warranty applies, which does not include the repair, installation, and delivery costs.
The terms of use are defined as follows:
+ Home use: solely for private use in private households up to 3 hours per day + Semi-professional use: up to 6 hours per day (e. g. rehabilitation centers, hotels, clubs,  company gyms)
+ Professional use: more than 6 hours per day (e. g. commercial gyms)

Warranty Service
Within the warranty period, equipment that develops faults as a result of material or manufacturing defects will be repaired or replaced at our discretion. Ownership of equipment or parts of equipment that have been replaced is transferred to us. The warranty period is not extended nor does a new warranty period begin following repair or replacement under the warranty.

Warranty Conditions
For the warranty to be valid, the following steps must be taken:
Please contact our customer service by email or phone. If the product under warranty has to be sent in for repair, the seller bears costs. After expiry of the warranty, the buyer  bears the costs of transport and insurance. If the fault is covered by our warranty, you will receive a new or repaired equipment in return.
Warranty claims are invalid in case of damage resulting from:

  • misuse or improper handling
  • environmental influences (moisture, heat, electrical surge, dust, etc.)
  • failure to follow the current safety measures for the equipment
  • failure to follow the operating instructions
  • use of force (e. g. hitting, kicking, falling)

  • unauthorized repair attempts

Proof of Purchase and Serial Number

So that we can clearly identify the model of your equipment, and for the purposes of our quality control, you will need to give the serial number of your equipment, when contacting the service team. Where possible please have your serial number and your customer number ready when you call our service hotline. It will help us to deal with your request swiftly.
If you cannot find the serial number on your fitness equipment, our service team is at your disposal to offer further information.
Service outside of the Warranty Period
We are also happy to issue an individual cost estimate if there is a problem with your fitness equipment after the warranty has expired, or in cases that do not fall under the terms of the warranty, e. g. normal wear and tear. Please contact our customer service team to find a quick and cost-effective solution to your problem. In such a case you will be responsible for the delivery costs.
Communication
Many problems can be solved just by speaking to us as your specialist supplier. We know how important it is to you as a user of the fitness equipment to have problems solved quickly and simply, so you can enjoy working out with minimal interruption.
