11 March 2007We purchased a Stamina InTone Jogger, model 35-1655D, in December, 2006. The jogger is rated for up to 250 lbs. My husband weighs 170 lbs, I weigh 140, and we used the jogger for 20 minutes each, every other day. Two months after receiving the jogger, two of the springs that connect the mat to the frame snapped in two. We called Stamina, and they sent two replacements. After 30 minutes of use, two more springs snapped. We again called Stamina. This time, they sent 12 new springs. After 10 minutes of use, two more springs snapped.When we called Stamina, they didn't seem at all surprised that the springs had broken. That, plus the fact that they sent so many extra replacements, strongly suggests that this is not an uncommon complaint.Since the springs are presumably all alike, it stands to reason that they will continue to break until all the original ones have been replaced. I have no reason to believe the replacements will be any stronger. I am apprehensive about using the jogger now, fearing a sudden failure of many springs simultaneously that could cause injury to one of us.It should be noted that the springs are extremely difficult to install, requiring not only that the installers be quite strong but also the use of tools and equipment that the average consumer is not likely to have. Had the jogger not come already partially assembled, my husband and I would not have been able to assemble it ourselves, even with the help of the tools and equipment.In addition to the defective springs, the rubber caps that cover the legs of the jogger made black marks on our carpet which proved impossible to remove completely, and one of the legs (made of hollow tubing) has punched completely through its rubber cap. My carpet would have been the next victim, had I not placed a piece of scrap carpeting beneath the jogger's legs.We bought this product because the price was reasonable and because we believe rebounding to be an effective and safe form of aerobic exercise. If the product were durable, we would like it very much. Sadly, that is not the case.UPDATE 12 Nov 2007We've now had our Stamina InTone Jogger for 11 months. My husband stopped using it altogether after the springs began to snap. Since then, the only user has been me, at 140 lbs and 65 years of age, rebounding for 20 minutes every other day. The 14 replacement springs sent by Stamina have all been used, and a phone call to Stamina's customer service department today yielded the following: They will not provide any more no-charge replacements (the warranty period is only 90 days). As more springs break (which they most assuredly will), Stamina will sell me replacements at $2.00 each, plus shipping. Do the math -- for the price of 25 or 30 new springs, I could buy a new jogger.We have determined that the reason the springs break is a design/construction defect: The springs hook into a punched hole in the steel frame of the jogger, and the sharp edges of those holes cut through the springs like a knife. Need I say that I will not be ordering more springs from Stamina? Instead, I am shopping for a new rebounder from a maker other than Stamina, one that will not start to disintegrate within a month after purchase.Interestingly, the customer service rep with whom we spoke today insisted that broken springs are all but unheard of with this product. Who among you believes I am the only owner whose jogger has this problem?

In the past, I have had a small trampoline similar to this, but gave it away because of space restrictions. I had enjoyed using it, and always felt energized after using it, but felt limited by the lack of a safety bar. Now it is more than 20 years later and I began looking for one again. When I came across this one with the safety bar that adjusts in height, I went to the company website, and also checked out epinions for comments. With few exceptions, most users mention that the hardest part of assembly is putting on the fabric piece that goes around the outside over the springs, but the company clearly states that it takes two people to accomplish that step. I considered the more expensive oval rebounder, but finally came to the conclusion that the amount of usable extra surface space would not be any more than the round one because of the location of the bar. I was also concerned about the "can be folded" to conserve space feature, feeling that would be a weak point. Don't even consider buying this if you think you can fold it up and slide it out of sight when not in use; once you've put this together, you won't want to do it again.The safety bar, the price, and reviews I found elsewhere were the deciding factors for me. It arrived soon after I had placed the order, and my husband assembled it with a minimal of muttering, and yes, the springs cover is difficult to install, but do-able. I had read reviews where users commented on the noise or jiggling of the safety bar, so that was one of the first things I wanted to check out. The bar adjusts to accommodate my taller than average height, and the movement is no more than I'd expect with my weight bouncing on the equipment. I feel safe with it. I am pleased with the sturdiness of this product, and don't anticipate ever having to replace it. Considering that 20 years ago I paid $35 for one without a grab bar, I feel that the Stamina InTone Jogger with it's safety features is a good buy.

I just love this thing...I was looking for something different to workout with. This thing is so much fun...And, for once the workout tape isn't goofy. It's one exercise at a time and progresses in intensity as you go. I've owned several other pieces of exercise equipment and they get boring after a while. You can go along with the tape and also make up a few things on your own...You're not confined to a machine...
