How many times do I have to write and call customer service to get my issue resolved? I haven't been able to finish a ride for months! I get 6-9 minutes into a ride and the video fails. I've been on the phone with customer service so often and they keep passing the buck. Here are the facts.
I bought the Studio s22i from $#*!'s on 12-20-2020. It worked fairly well for six to eight months though there were occasional glitches. Now it glitches EVERY SINGLE RIDE! The screen freezes and the video stops between 6 and 10 minutes. You can look at my profile. I can't finish a ride. It's not holding the wifi signal. I've called customer service multiple times. Done the factory reset, reinstalled software and done everything they've asked me to do. I even changed internet providers, raised my download speed and prioritized the iFit device on the network. NO OTHER DEVICE IN MY HOME HAS EVER HAD A PROBLEM. It doesn't make sense that it would work for six months and then crap out. There is something fundamentally wrong with the software. Maybe stop using cheap, crappy Android tablets, I don't know. I also, stupidly, purchased the maintenance agreement when I bought the bike. Another five hundred dollars down the drain. They came in and replaced the screen and the control box and I STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. They say it's congestion on my wifi network. Again, I unplugged or shut off everything in my house that uses the wifi and it STILL freezes. I changed the channel on my router and STILL it freezes. What I have right now is a $2,000 bike, a $500 maintenance agreement and the rest of my iFit membership for 2022. It's all worthless. DON'T GET SUCKERED! THIS IS REALLY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE! THEY SIMPLY DON'T CARE.
The iFit workouts are actually pretty good. Some of the trainers are unbearable but there are a number of excellent ones. I would really love for this to work but NO customer should have to jump through the hoops I have on a purchase this large. It should work as advertised or they should refund your money. Never, ever again.
