### 5/5 — Love it! August 2026

*2026-08-09, version 2025.6*

Great customer service great machine. I use it often and whenever I need anything the truth is always there to respond and send me anything that I need.

### 2/5 — Not Worth It

*2026-06-08, version 2025.6*

Expensive machine that requires subscription to fully work as intended. The app is not great, requiring you to check your email every log-in. Doesn’t track workouts if you don’t subscribe to app. I don’t recommend this to anyone. Save your money and get a gym membership.

### 5/5 — Best fitness machine

*2026-01-15, version 2025.6*

I really like my Vitruvian. It’s a powerhouse and has a max capability of 440 lbs, the most of any digital resistance machine. It has terrific modes such as eccentric and echo that really add to the quality of my workout.

### 5/5 — Love- gutted it’s liquidated

*2025-12-15, version 2025.6*

Love my machine & more than gutted the company has liquidated esp. after buying my lifetime subscription. Waiting for it to bricks using it while I can..so sad. An incredible machine.

### 1/5 — Ripoff

*2025-09-29, version 2025.6*

After spending 3k on this machine ai would expect the app has decent functionality without a membership. 

The app was already quite mediocre but I just found out that without the membership the app is completely useless.

This is really a ripoff. Shame on you thieves!

### 4/5 — Good not great

*2025-08-01, version 2025.6*

Good app. Want: real time force output graph like ARX. Echo as basic feature, not paid. 130% eccentric echo. Easier ability to redo a set in a workout.

### 3/5 — Good app but please keep me logged in

*2025-07-06, version 2025.6*

Its a decent app and works well enough for my sessions once I get going. would like the app the keep me logged in at all times. It seems like every week it’ll log me out or after some inactivity. At the very least I’d like to stay logged in for a month at a time.

### 1/5 — Avoid at any cost

*2025-07-03, version 2025.6*

What do you do when the app decides to not connect to the trainer?

Nothing really, you just have a useless hunk of waste that cost way too much money that cannot be used.

The fact that the hardware is unusable without the buggy app is insane and a scam.

### 1/5 — Great hardware, ok software, bad company

*2025-06-30*

I love the Vitruvian trainer.  It provides one of the most interesting and robust home resistance training options out there. 

The software is fine for the most part, except when it stopped working for a very very long time due to poor operations.  

That being said, it’s a start up and things like this happen. 

The reason for the one star rating is the incredibly poor response by Vitruvian leadership. 

The software outage was primarily greeted with silence and no details given. 

At one point there was a very generic “we’re working on it” but this is the kind of d if situation that demands the CEO come out and explain exactly what happened and what’s being done. 

The details are far less important than the high bandwidth communication. 

You’ve done way more damage to your product by terrible communication than any amount of software mistake.

### 2/5 — Subscription required

*2025-06-17*

There should to be tiered subscription options. You pay a few thousand dollars for a machine that only fully works with the subscription, which is more expensive than it’s worth if you aren’t using any of the programming or classes. You can’t see your workout history or keep from hitting yourself in the face when your timed set is done because the sound to let you know it’s done is behind a paywall. This seems like a safety concern but the company isn’t interested in including this or other basic features in the price of the machine. You’ll get very little help from customer service if you aren’t a paid subscriber and no improvements have been made in the two years I’ve had the machine that are available to non-subscribers. If money isn’t a concern, it’s a great machine. If you don’t want to pay monthly on top of what the machine costs, look elsewhere.
