Whether you are an entrepreneurial fitness coach looking to start your own personal training studio, or you are a homeowner looking to equip your ‘now essential’ home gym with quality equipment, you can get commercial grade exercise machines at a fraction of the cost with refurbished fitness equipment.
New commercial exercise equipment can cost you thousands of dollars. With refurbished exercise equipment you can save up to fifty percent off the regular retail price of a new machine. Everything from treadmills, elliptical trainers, exercise bikes, steppers to free weights and even floor matting can be found at a discounted price from a fitness remanufacturing company.
Is refurbished exercise equipment as good as new? If you find the right company that sells refurbished exercise equipment, then the answer is a definite yes.
It’s best in life to be ‘in the know’ so here’s a break down of the remanufacturing process of an exercise machine. The Remanufacturing Process is basically the taking apart of the used exercise equipment, powder coating the frame, and the machine is reassembled from the ground up. In the end, the gym machine will function and look as new.
There are three different remanufacturing processes:
Total Remanufacture. This process goes as follows: 1) Machine is stripped down and sand blasted; 2) Powder finish; 3) A test of all moving parts; 4) Savings of 35% off the price of a new machine; and 5) Longest warranty period-comparable to that of a new model.
Refurbished involves: 1) Touch up of paint job; 2) Testing of machine to make sure its 100% operational; 3) 40-50% off the price of a new machine; and 4) Approximate 6 month warranty.
Serviced remanufacturing process is: 1) Machine is cleaned with some minor touch-ups; 2) Testing of machine to make sure its 100% operational; 3) 40-50% off the price of a new machine; and 4) Approximate 3 month warranty.
It goes without saying that when purchasing refurbished exercise equipment you should always do some research and shop around before you make a final decision. Here are some tips to help you select the right equipment to ensure that you get the most out of your investment: (A) Check the stock of the items. Make sure that the refurbishing company has the item you are looking for in stock in their inventory. If they do not have in-stock inventory of the preowned strength training equipment, you could be waiting days, weeks or even months before your equipment arrives to your doorstep. (B) Know the life expectancy of the reconditioned machine. You can speak to a representative of the used exercise equipment company to find out how long the exercise machine was originally used, and the life expectancy of the machine. Also, contact the original fitness equipment manufacturers to find out if particular models had any defects, recalls, and how (or if) they were resolved or remedied in later versions. (C) Get and contact some references.
Obtain a list of previous customers from the remanufactured fitness equipment dealer and contact them to find out details of their experiences with their used equipment.
In summary, refurbished exercise equipment is a fit choice when you are contemplating the purchase of commercial strength training equipment, treadmills, elliptical trainers or any other exercise machine. Purchasing refurbished commercial exercise equipment from the right remanufacturing company can give you a practically new workout machine while saving you thousands of dollars.
