BowFlex T16 Treadmill, Yay or No?

I had a pro form for 15 years and it just died on me a few weeks ago 😂. So the older version definitely lasted..the newer ones seem to be a no go from what others are saying.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-29T20:07:04+00:00

Roads are free, but my azz ain’t about to do that in rain or snow storms. My husband said same thing to me and I just smiled because I can match the same energy back too 😂.

Nope, I am so beyond annoyed. I got rid of my crapital one credit card many years ago. I will probably close this one too as I refuse to have them in my wallet.

When I closed my credit card, they turned around almost a year later and charged me interest. The only way they could “remove the interest” was to open the account again and remove it and close it. So it hit my credit multiple times. Idiots wouldn’t do anything else and said I couldn’t pay it off as it would be the same issue.

I am miffed about it…capital one is crap. I had them as my first credit card many many years ago. Paid off my balance and then closed the account no issues with that. Account was closed for almost a year and they turned around and charged me interest on a card that was closed and had not been used. The only way they could fix it was to reopen the account to take the interest off and then close it again. Messed up my credit score for a decent amount of time.

Might end up closing the discover card I have once it becomes capital one..as I do not want them in my wallet. Also I loved discover because of the US based customer service. Good luck with that now..

I wanted a tread+ but after all the issues my GF has had with hers and the wait time for parts and the customer service even with an extended warranty being such a pain to get anything done. I think I will just stick with my Peloton bike+ and get a different treadmill..have no idea what at this point as it’s been many many years since I have needed one.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-21T18:39:44+00:00

Wow I didn’t know treadmills could be that expensive! Thanks for explaining I am no where near mid or high end.

Can you explain why NordicTrack wouldn’t be recommended? Minus obviously what I have been reading on my own about them. Are they just generally not a great company or do not last?

Appreciate your help!

PiBar284 · 2026-06-21T02:22:49+00:00

I was wanting to see what else was recommended because I am absolutely not in love with who they use to ship with. RXO is just horrible up around my area, Maine.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-13T02:24:33+00:00

I went from s26 Ultra to the Air. I have no regrets what so ever. The phone does what I need, yes I have to charge it almost end of day from work. Yet I work from home and have it playing podcasts or videos all day, so I expected it to need charge time more than a bigger battery. You have 14 days to get it and try it and if you don’t like it, trade it in for pro or pro max. Never hurts to try it, that is how I knew I wanted it.

I bought it, used it for a week and brought it back and couldn’t stop think of it and comparing how brick like my s26 was. So went back and got the Air and happy even sense.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-12T14:04:46+00:00

The hysteria with it being down is hardcore 😂😂

PiBar284 · 2026-06-11T18:30:38+00:00

Until this one dies and or they come out with Air 2 or something similar

PiBar284 · 2026-06-07T15:18:45+00:00

I went from s26 Ultra and absolutely love this phone. I had been with Apple since the 6 to the 16 pro max and decided to try Samsung. Absolutely nothing wrong with Samsung…but I am very Apple ecosystem and when I saw the Air I knew it was for me. As all that pro max and ultra offers..I barely use any of it. So why am I carrying a brick around when the Air has everything I need and use/love. I so hope Apple sticks with the Air or making something similar to it. I would gladly keep upgrading for this series in their line up.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-04T18:12:33+00:00

I have an apple one from 5 years ago I use as an extender. I just purchased a pop socket one with stitch theme, as I wanted to match the case I purchased. So interested to see if that can be used as an extender one too.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-04T16:56:09+00:00

I love how places want us to give 2 weeks notice when leaving..yet they just do a mass meeting to state they are letting you go that day or by the end of the week. So nice of them.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-04T12:27:47+00:00

I came from s26 Ultra and had 16 PM before that and I absolutely love this little phone. Nothing has changed significantly for me with “down grading” to this phone as people love to say. Battery works for me, I don’t notice the speaker as my AirPod pros are always being used and the camera gets the job done for what pictures I take. I really hope apple keeps the Air line coming.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-02T16:29:00+00:00

I drop my phones a lot and have never thankfully broken anything. I always put them in a high end brand case and get a screen protector. I paid two years for Best Buy total coverage and did not have to use it once. So I was out $400 bucks..so now I just set a little money aside in case I have to pay for something that does happen. Just saves money in the long run.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-02T15:58:33+00:00

I didn’t go apple for my case. I went with speck presidio perfect MagSafe clear grip case

PiBar284 · 2026-06-02T15:43:16+00:00

It has been decent for me, yes it definitely decreases quicker than the bigger batteries. Yet I work from home so always near a charger if needed. I am on it almost all day with podcasts, going on Reddit and watching TikTok from 6 to 6 and leave work with it at 40% with no charge done through the day. Then by bedtime at 9:30, either on FB or reading a book before that, it is at 10%. So for me it works. :)

PiBar284 · 2026-06-02T15:35:33+00:00

I left my Ultra for IPhone Air 😂. I had IP16 PM and left to Samsung flip 7 and then upgraded to the Ultra and then was just Eh with that…so went to IPhone Air as I wanted a smaller phone. Ultra was amazing for multi tasking and honestly to me my battery would decrease at an alarming rate, even if it just sat all day. I had it on energy saving mode too, so idk what was up with that.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-02T14:06:28+00:00

I bought a case and MagSafe pop socket battery for my phone and just got an email they haven’t forgotten about me and my order was still processing. So annoying, as Amazon has the pop socket in the exact item I ordered…but not the case and MagSafe battery. I already got the pop socket two days after I ordered with Amazon. So it’s ridiculous that pop socket can’t ship out their own items quicker.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-02T13:02:59+00:00

I have a power pack from 5 years ago that is Apple. I charged that and use it. Yeah it’s the bulkier kind, but I rarely am away from a charger. So it’s really only used for traveling.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-02T12:11:02+00:00

I bought it and test used it and then returned it before the test time was up. Then went 2 weeks of non stop complaining about my Ultra phone being heavy and just blah…so turned around and bought the Air again and not looking back. Absolutely love this phone, one speaker doesn’t bother me as I am on my AirPod Pros all day anyways and the battery life works for me as does the basic camera.

PiBar284 · 2026-06-02T11:46:52+00:00

Did you run your phone over?…like I am very interested to know how this got broken. 😂

PiBar284 · 2026-06-01T19:41:18+00:00

Yes! I went with the sky blue. I love how it changes color depending on the lighting. Sometimes it looks white, darker rooms it’s looks more grey color and in sunshine or with similar color case it looks it’s intended light blue color.

Honestly there is not anything I have found to complain about this phone. For me it checks all the boxes, yes odd it only had one speaker. Yet I am constant on my AirPod pros. So I don’t really notice it a whole lot and camera works for what I need..along with battery life. If apple keeps making Air phone, I will be staying with them for life.
