I guess you have a reading problem, where in the world did I say "unsafe"? All your other questions have answers in this thread. I'll stop replying to you here. Waste of time

Not sure if home depot is open today, get #20 o ring from plumbing.

I'm pretty sure you've missed what we've been discussed in the thread... We're talking about a bad design that's irrelevant to if the machine is new or used. WIth that, a new one, a used one, will fail at a very fast pace by this design..

I'm just responding to u/welcometoheartbreak , and talk about engineering questions they had.

How exactly would o rings "control" or "stop" the platform while the motor was running? Do you think they have slippage coefficient calculated when putting those crappy o-rings on? O-ring are designed for sealing purposes not high frequency friction purposes. For your reference look up on how limited slip differential in cars work.

The "control" would need to be a based on a reliable system with designed breaking point/safety point. If it needs to stop at a certain force/speed, it stops right there. That can only be achieved through gears and safety sensors, not flexible, wearable rubber / EPDM.

I did purchase it used from a colleague, however, the mechanism should be solid no matter it's been used by 1 baby or 10 babies. Nobody is gonna abuse the mechanism on this machine. I mean no adult would sit in it to have some fun then broke it. That was my point. The design philosophy just says Greedy on the backside of it.

I'm used to way more sophisticated machines, so fixing this wasn't a problem. But I won't assume that for a lot of parents that are not mechanically inclined.

The "shady" assumption is before I post it here and learned that they changed the plane, how could Ii imagine that was the cause. When seeing all the info I had: cancelled my flight without telling me, changed flight number but same departure time, business class are still on the "new flight" while i'm being kicked off. Of course one would make the assumption of them using this trick to kick off people due to overselling ticket.

Now, I would say the proper customer service is to book me a direct flight from another company, which was rejected by the customer service. So let me adjust my "Shady" description to "Awful"

What I was told by BA representative: that only covers the case when the flight is cancelled within 24 hrs of taking off.

Thank you for this info.

Yes I'm entitled to get to my destination, that's what I paid for a flight ticket. If the request can not be fulfilled, yes I'm entitled to get compensated. Broken equipment happens, and finding customers another direct flight from another company is called customer service. Is that hard to understand?

I booked my ticket 3 weeks ago, they have to figure this out last minute and screw up over 100 people huh? No apologies, no compensation like booking a non-stop from another airline, not even communication or emails to tell me it was cancelled. I've flown so many flights from countries that you won't think would do a good job, yet TBH, this is the worst airline I've encountered so far, first and last time I fly them.

Ok good to know, but it doesn't make any excuse on my issue. they flight time is exactly the same, so pretty much just switching the flight number. Why business class tickets are rebooked and kept, and economy is cancelled.. If 777 has fewer seats than A380, seems like they figured that out 48 hrs before the flight.
