Horrible service
My TM broke (the frame) and UTS had me lubricate the belt and try to schedule a replacement of one of the shocks. Only after I tried to do the shock replacement myself when I found out the repair service would take another 6 weeks of more to get to me did I diagnosis the broken frame.
They have a company in Yakima WA that services for them in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana. One company that services the entire Pacific Northwest and then some. I sent multiple copies of the crack in the frame, my contact information, my TM receipt (most of the time I just copied and pasted from the previous emails where I had already given them the information). After another 2 months they told me a new unwarranted TM would be sent to me.
I arranged the delivery and spoke with the shipping dispatcher about the weight of the package and was reassured that the driver would be happy to help me get it to my door. "They do it all the time" The driver of course had different instructions and while pleasant would not deliver is anywhere but the curbside in the snow and melting snow. I submitted paperwork for the refund of money on my agreement (2 months ago) and am still waiting now for that to happen. Bottom line: 1.
They don't really have much in the way of providing labor. Most of the diagnosis is self diagnosis and the service company covers a territorial mass that is ridiculous (over 40000 square miles). 2. They don't provide timely solutions.
3. They are a subsidiary of the same company that makes the TM so if the company makes a bad TM (frame breaks or cracks), their escape clause (Limit of liability) leaves you with a replacement TM made by the company that messed up the first time and no warranty. (In some ways having no more warranty with them makes me very, very happy- I can call a company minutes away in the city I live in that sells and services exercise equipment) 4.
If you still decide to purchase the coverage be prepared for several months of headaches and 5. if you have problems make sure you have the needed tools to disassemble the equipment and figure out what is causing the problem yourself and even if the original sale included assembly know that the replacement TM is all you.
