On February 15th Matt & I purchased a "Mac Daddy" NordicTrac Elliptical Machine from Sears. It has all the bells and whistles including a fan and IPod music system! We had it assembled @ Sears because my husband is not the handiest person in the world! We picked it up 3 days later and were very excited to get it home and start working out again. We had recently cancelled out YMCA membership because we have a awesome weight bench and 3 boys that keep us a runnin. We figured by adding an elliptical...we would be set!!! And so our journey begins...
Feb. 15...Purchase Elliptical
Feb. 19...Elliptical FINALLY assembled and so we pick it up!
Feb 21...Elliptical Gliders BROKE after 20 minutes of use.
Feb. 21...Called Sears...They said they would have a new machine delivered to us on Feb 23
Feb. 23...SUPPOSED TO BE DELIVERED...here is the phone call we received...
"Hello...This is Steve with Sears Delivery! We are on our way to your house with your replacement Elliptical Machine. I just looked in the back of the truck...and...uh...Is it supposed to be put together?" ...OK NOW I AM MAD!!! I take a breath and say..."UH...YES! That is what we paid for!" He ever so matter of factly replies..."OK...Well then you won't get it until tomorrow!" UGH!!! THREE DAYS LATER...
Feb. 26...Our NEW machine arrives and the broken one leaves! Yay!! Let the getting skinny begin!
We had WEEKS of wonderful use. I had to fight Matt for Elliptical time. We love our new machine! Or should I say LOVED!!!
TUESDAY MAY 26th...THE COMPUTER ON OUR ELLIPTICAL SHORTED OUT. I mean "COME ON!" Long story short...BUY AN EXTENDED WARANTY! Sometimes they atually work for you! I called the Waranty people on Friday May 29th and within 15 minutes I had local NordicTrack people calling me to schedule a time to come REPLACE the computer with a new one! I will believe THEIR speediness when I see it. Now we wait for the new computer to arrive! Will I EVER be skinny? Will I ever Elliptical again! Time will tell and so will my patience with Sears!!! Wish us luck as this SAGA continues!
Our BRAND NEW machine! We bought on Feb 15th...
...and it broke on Feb 21st!
Our SECOND New Elliptical delivered on Feb 26th! Yay...it is so pretty!
Now the computer is broke! SERIOUSLY!!! 2 months of use! Good thing we have a 5 year waranty!
