Thread: Fluidity Bar is showing wear and tear, anyone else?

My barre is screwed in place. If you have one of the earlier bars that shift around, I can see how wood scrapings could happen. Also, the feet of my bar are screwed in, so I don't see how they could come off. It's possible I have a newer model. I also plan to leave my bar height in place once I have it adjusted to the right height. As to wood filler, my bar seems to be made of solid wood. I looked at the side of my bar and it seems...

I just wanted to say that even though I'm having some issues with my Fluidity Bar it's still the best fitness related purchase I've ever made. I get so much use out of it and I really am able to do my barre workouts better. I don't think the wear and tear is excessive or beyond what can be expect for the amount of use it gets. I think part of the problem is that I have to store it and then wheel it out and set it up each...

I am willing to bet that they no longer offer the 'lifetime guarantee'. They told me that since my order was from 2005 or 2006? (don't recall exactly...) that I was S.O.L. (well, not in those words...)

proof of purchase Did you have to provide your receipt or proof of purchase to get a replacement and pay only shipping?? Mine is okay for now but just wondering for the future , I am not sure if I kept my shipping information or not.

I have no idea if I kept the receipt, I usually do but I have moved cross country 2x and across town 2x since then so I dunno. That said, knock on wood, mine seems fine. I also keep the mat folded up 99% of the time I use it too...mainly because I rarely do the actual Fluidity DVDs. __________________ Stephanie_B If you can't do it today what makes you think you will do it tomorrow?

I wonder if the bar can be removed and replaced with solid wood? (I'm too lazy/tired right now to drag my behind off the couch and walk across the living room to look ). I've had mine for three + years. I use it 3-4 times a week. I've noticed no wear and tear, but as Alison does, I keep...

Wow, I can't believe it's not a solid wood bar! It should be!

Another bandwagon I never hopped on. I'm sorry you are all having so many problems. I didn't realize I was saving so much money and hassle when I bought a heavy duty shower grab bar at the hardware store and had it installed into the wall studs. It's been a great barre for me, and if I want to sit on the floor and grab it while balancing against the wall, it works great for that too. I chose the height that was right for me....
