I’ve been an amazon customer for almost 12 years, and whenever I buy something, I always check amazon first.
No surprise, Amazon had the recumbent bike I was looking for, and nearly $100 cheaper than the local big box sports store where I tested it out.
Shipping is the factor here in the competitive price. Regular shipping was around $70 for this bike through amazon, and if I was paying that, then probably easier to just pick up the bike locally. But free shipping, well then it’s a no-brainer, right? I can wait a couple of weeks for the bike. . .
So I ordered the bike through amazon on 10/25. Almost a month has passed. According to tracking, the bike arrived in Chicago (local hub) on 11/6. No call from the shipper, no way to contact them (CEVA?). Amazon wants me to wait until tomorrow to either cancel or have them ship another one. Ahh, just in time for the Christmas shipping rush. What are the odds I’ll get it this time? And apparently I just gave a $400 short term loan to amazon if all I do is get a refund.
Bottom line, in this case, amazon free shipping appears to be free because the package never arrives. Maybe not such a good deal. I think I’m going back to the big box.

I have a 231 Schwinn Recumbent exerciser bike and love it. the Schwinn 240 Recumbent exercise bike is a piece of junk and you can’t get anyone at Nautilus co, who make the bike and handles the warranty to answer the phone, if you have all day and like listening to music then all is well. Personally I would like to talk to some one and get the bike fixed or my money back. If you have any ideas where I can go to get help let me know.

It is the first review of the first week of beruht.ABF Property (shippers contacted) and we asked if we would like delivered. It came when they said. I live on a farm track and the driver was unable to enter my house in the snow. No problem, I’m used to. I rode my bike to the truck loaded, we have them in my trailer. He was riding on my bike with me in my house and we invited them into the room I wanted. Excellent. The box was in great shape, 14 solide.Mein six year old son she put up in 1 hour, then I reviewed his work as we have spent 30 minutes going over the nuts and bolts tight. He had the cross in the front leg back so it does not roll when we picked up at the back, not a big problem, we can reverse. It was easy for him to travel montieren.Erste favorable to them, to ensure that the seat to tighten after each setting. Do not count on them when you move the seat. Until now, the seat of the weak. We’ll see how it holds. You must understand the programming to get the best use of IT. I have other devices where you had during pre-programmed to mount hatte.Es is not the power button. Only away from her, and it is off. I read somewhere dass.Der cupholder is Mickey Mouse and probably will not be used. I do not think the basket is used werden.Ich reviews complained about the older models on the same line as the 240 and play them on the package, shippers, the Assembly was to have been hard, instructions bad. I had no problem with any of these, maybe I was lucky. Rating: 5.5

Bike came without the siège and l' électronique Anzeige.Ich était on the ice with the line of Schwinn service à the clientèle during 30 minutes, and it n' était able to block itself more. J' have rappelé and has exigé the figure d' businesses, not d' à makes an attempt all, but they étaient hard and little disposés à to help.
