I was seriously thinking of buying this, the money was holding me back, & I'm glad I found this site. I'm trying to lose the 25-30 lbs (& get back to 100 lbs, my pre-marriage weight), so I've decided I'm gonna start walking/jogging. I really did think this product was going to help with weight loss, but as I've seen here, it's only for tonning. well, jogging will take care of both, lol. maybe cut back on the white rice (don't eat meat anyways, but animals foods I know make u fatter, just a tip).

If you guys don't want to pay to have it sent back, keep the box and if it doesn't work out for you pack back in the box the same way, black out your address and write 'return' on it. Take it back to the Fedex or the UPS store or whatever company sent it to you and tell them it was the wrong address and you mistook it as some other product you were waiting for. That'll save you half of the shipping trouble. But yeah, I saw the infomercial for it and yes I did see the 'six payments of' they pretty much flashed it and i was like 'what was that?' so I waited for it to go around again and saw it. So, it is on there but for only a few seconds. Finally, when it comes to ballet, it's a dance not an exercise. Stop trying to lose weight by stretching and squatting. Those moves are meant to tone and give your body the proper posture.

I bought the bar thinking it would be a great bargain/deal for $39.99. I fell into the scam. I wanted to try it for free for 30 days and send it back if I didn't like it or see results. No where in the infomercial do they say its actually 6 payments of $39.99. I was horrified when I saw the bill but to my financial doom in order to ship the heavy bulky (don't know where to store the darn thing or hide it) thing it would cost be $100. They charge you for the shipping and handling so its $50 one way and $50 the other. A total of $100 you pay them for trying their dumb invention. Oh and if you want to keep it you pay $261.00 or so; what would you do? Return something you don't want and still end up spending or wasting $100 or keep the darn thing for $161 extra the hundred? Don't do it. Just buy workout video for your DVD, same concepts, same workouts for much less. Or better yet get yourself an exercise ball for $16.99 from [] that comes with a workout DVD--same results and you save more than $100. Believe me I got scammed.

Ha! I was going to purchase this product after watching the infomercial and I kept holding off. Come to find out, one of my friends ordered it and it gave me the opportunity to try it out. It was a pretty good work out. A week and a half after she got it, she hurt her back in an unrelated accident and she decided to send it back, since she would be out of commission for a few months. This was back in July and I've seen the problems she's had to go through with the return. (Most of the same problems that everyone else is talking about.) Ballet is one of the most amazing ways to tone your body, hands down, not lose weight, you have to get your heart pumping for that! Get online, for under $50 (includes gas to the hardware store) you can build your own ballet bar with proper heights and stability. Then google ballet stretches and wah-la! Yeah, it's a little more work than picking up the phone or ordering online, but well worth it! No dealing with silly customer service people, fighting to get refunds or giving away your bank account info!

I was very close to ordering this product today. I often order on line versus calling and was surprised to see that $39.95 is only one of a total of 6 payments. This product is expensive. $40 seemed reasonable. I was willing to give it a try, but the final price is over $200. No way! Then I decided to check out this site and was surprised by the number of complaints on the deceptive price, and the return policy. While some folks seemed to like this product, too many others warn not to purchase it. I saw that ridiculous price on the website and opted out before I even decided to purchase. Beware!

I LOVE THIS!! I am completely happy with my bar. I ordered mine online, and the price/payments was clearly stated. If it worked, I thought it'd be worth the money. And it is. I've had mine for about 6 weeks now. But yes, you have to realize, it's not meant to help you lose alot of weight. After the first few times I used it I could see a new shape to some of my muscles, especially little curves to my arms I never had. I thought the workout was pretty easy but then the more I use it, it becomes clear when you feel your butt burning that it's not THAT easy. But what do you expect. You got to work at it. I am very happy with the tone that it has given my body, and I think it is a very nice stress reliever as well. I feel so good afterwords, the stretches are really nice. It is heavy, so just be careful. It also did have a little bit of a smell, but mines faded, you only notice it if you sniff it. I'm sad that this site is turning people away from buying this, maybe it's just not for some people, and some people want magic cure to their body, and some just like to complain. But I am happy with mine.

i ordered this product thinking that it was the best thing ever. for some personal reasons i had to cancel my order. i ordered this on a saturday morning and canceled it on monday morning. it has taken me a month to recieve my money back and as of right now i still have not recieved a refund. i call every week, and they keep giving me excuses. because of there mistake (not canceling it in time) im out $50 in shipping. plus phone time because i only have a cell phone. this is absolutly rediculous! and a total scam!

everyone reporting on this product is right on the money and i do mean money it cost them 39.95 to ship it to you but when you want to return it it cost you around 120.00 to return it to them, on you, they don't pay for returning it! It was very misleading! I had mine for almost the whole month and could not use it because the dvd's they sent me were all the same one or they were so thick they messed up my new dvd player think they are gona pay for my dvd player, I DON'T THINK SO! finally they sent me the last dvd i didn't even open it because they had taken up my introductory offer(which is what i am sure they wanted to do) so i couldn't send it back. All i can say is the truth does not seem to care to these people but that is how these people make their money by being scam artist. BE CAREFUL WHEN DEALING WITH THIS COMPANY! by the way this is a joke it does not work, gotta see what they are doing behind the scenes to get in shape-it's not fluidity!

My friend bought this and promptly hated it. I stole it from her and I LOVE IT! I am well over 200lbs, and even though it IS heavy and does smell ALOT. I didn't drop anything on myself, or DO IT WRONG and hurt myself. consumers need to pay attention and not blame EVERYONE else for their stupidity. if you had friends to help you assemble it, or actually paid ATTENTION to the instructions maybe you wouldn't feel so taken. I love this product and would endorse it to anyone.

I recently purchased the Fluidity Bar and love it. I had been watching the commercials for a while and finally decided to give it a try. It is honestly one of the hardest workouts I've ever done and I consider myself if decent shape... I run on a treadmill, lift weights, do pilates, etc. but for some reason, this particular workout is really hard for me. I think the main reason is because it's different and it's using muscles that are hard to target w/ the regular workouts I do. I really like the workout and look forward to getting better at it to acheive the results I'm looking for. The bar itself is made very well, it's very sturdy and appears it will hold up for the long haul. I saw some of the complaints on this site about how heavy the bar and mat are, etc... I guess I wonder why you would want it to be light and flimbsy?? You need it to hold your body weight so you can target specific muscles during the workout. To all the 300 lb folks out there that think this is the easy cure all - get real... this is a hard workout that you have to really focus and work at. You can't just do this workout and think you are going to look like the ladies on the tapes... you have to do other things too. Overall, I'm 100% satisfied w/ the product and am looking forward to more workouts!

The Fluidity Bar has four important characteristics that the Fluidity Infomercial does not mention: 1 - It stinks to high heaven. The mat gives off a strong pungent odor that quickly spreads through out the house. 2 - It cost far, far more than the $39.95 the Infomercial talks about. The total, including shipping and handling, adds up to a whopping $323.91! 3 - You can make an inexpensive workout bar using materials from any lumber yard and or hardware store. I made one for a total of $32. 4 - You will have to search far and wide before you find a phone number or an address for Fluidity Bar. Fluidity Bar does a very good job of hiding from customers wanting to return the exerciser. Here, for anyone is thinking of returning their Fluidity Bar, is the phone number you will have to call for a Return authorization Number (RAM), 1-886-229-9111. Bottom line, stay away from infomercials! With best wishes, Urban

I tried to fluidity bar and absolutely love it! I dont think its a scam because umm hello! Youre buying something from an infomercial! They all have these so many payments that are not broadcasted right away. They do tell you when you call to order and is seen on the website when you order. Its your own fault if you dont read all the terms and conditions! The only part i was unhappy with is that i didnt drop the pounds they proclaimed to. but i did feel the product was convient, easy to assembly and store, and I did get the toning it promised!

I, too, bought this product about a month ago. AND I bought it with the intention of, if I didn't like it, I'm still not sending it back since it is ridiculously expensive to do so. However, I LOVE the fluidity bar. If I don't feel like working out, then I just do the beginner DVD. One truth be told, there is a smell, no doubt. After a month, it is just now starting to subside.

most of the complaints here are because of stupidity on the part of the consumer. if you didn't read or completely check it out then you only have yourself to blame. and who doesn't know that you have to reduce your caloric intake to lose weight? does anyone not know that in this day and age? i have the bar and it has worked wonders on the shape of my body and i knew it cost $240.00 before i bought it. how dumb do you have to be to let it fall on your foot? if you read the instructions before you touch it, it's no problem. as far as the dvd's go you don't need a long grueling workout. they work every muscle. it's extremely efficient. it seems like most of the people complaining here are a bunch of cry babies.

I'm sorry to see so many complaints. My mom bought it, but like all the other gym things she buys for the house... it had not been used after the first few weeks she had it. But, I LOVE IT! It does not shed lbs, but you have to know that going into it... theres no cardio and its strength training w/ your body. I also do it at least 5x a week. Its certainly not easy on beginners either. Great for abs, arms, and better posture/flexability!

I got my fluidity bar yesterday. It arrived in a box that was completely ripped on 3 ends exposing most of the unit w/ only a thin plastic over it. I have never recieved a package in that condition. Fortunately, the unit was not damaged BUT it has an extremely strong offensive chemical smell comming from it. I noticed the smell the minute I opened my front door. I unwrapped the bar and put it outside for 24 hours to air out. That did not help. I can't be near it w/o getting a sore throat and having my eyse water. I washed the mat w/ soap and water, but no improvement. The smell penetrates throughout my house w/ in minutes, even w/ windows open. It looks like it is sturdy and I would like to work out on it, but unless I get a gas mask, I can't go near it. The mat is permanently attached to the bar so I think the whole thing has to be returned, but what am I supposed to do for a box, it is in shreads!!

I had the Fluidity Bar and and sent it back for a shipping price of $124.36. This was on 2-10-08. I have not heard anything from Fluidity Bar and they are still charging my account. I have tried all numbers listed and have not reached a person. Also have tried the Customerservice@asontv.com and it is not avialable. This company needs to be investigated by California and shut down. It is not operated as a ligitimate one. They take your money and run.

I too saw the infomercial on the fluidity bar and almost bought it. I decided to do some checking and found this website. It is regretable that there are so many scams these days, praying on those of us who want to believe. Thank you for your blogs. I will not be purchasing this product.

hi, i saw the infomercial for this today and figured it looked really good, then went to their website and realized how incredibly misleading the infomercial is...nevermind that but even on other review sites, there are reviews by unknown people who write that this product is so amazing, but i am really glad to have come across this site andi feel so bad for the people who didn't get to see this site before buying this product

I bought this product for my wife a couple of months ago, she really wanted it so I got it for her. My main complaint isnt about the product because it seems to work. My complaint is about their customer service. Along with the Fluidity Bar I mistakingly purchased the weight loss pills with it. I got two shipments in the mail right away and was charged for them. Well I want to return them but cant seem to find anyone to talk to - except a sales person (right off the website) and they just direct you to a phone number ( 866.229.9119) that keeps on ringing with no answer or a number that is busy constantly no mater how many time you call it. I cant seem to get through to anyone. Ive emailed them and still no response. I just want to get a refund for these pills and return them. That shouldnt be hard to do. But it is and im getting tired of it. Wish I knew better!
