Has anyone bought one of these? https://uk.wahoofitness.com/devices/bike-trainers/kickr-core-indoor-smart-trainer-reconditioned-euuk I received mine on 2nd December 2020 (bought with a two year warranty which now seems to have changed to one year) and it will be getting packed up shortly as there i…

[image] swgregg: is that normal for Wahoo warranty? Yes, normal. When the major trainer issue first blew up years ago, they were sending units out prior to return confirmation. Apparently, they got burned by enough to kill that process for everyone. So they must have info that your bad uni…

Thanks @mcneese.chad I’ve had a follow up from Wahoo support with two key bits of info: they will send out a new refurbished unit in advance with a reserve payment of £550 which they will refund once the old one is in transit, seems fair they said that ‘the refurbished trainers include updated…

Yeah, not making excuses. It’s understandably frustrating and shouldn’t be as common an issue as we see. Some existing discussion on the broader issue: [image] Annoying trainers Equipment I have no doubt this has been done before but I rarely come on here and whilst a se…

Annoying trainers een done before but I rarely come on here and whilst a search reveals lots of similar problems, I can’t find an answer… I had a nice Tacx Bushido which I rarely used, in fact, it had blown up with a big bang (thought the tyre had blown!) and a cloud of white smoke but I have…

Hope I get one like yours @PattyP , the performance is great but the noise that developed is a shame!

Yeah i hope it for you! I got a good deal for 500 euro with black friday. Fingers crossed he will stay silence… :slight_smile:

I had a core and had to send it back twice. The second time I asked them to send me a 2nd gen Kickr and they did, been happy with it ever since. The cores are good-ish, especially if you get one without issues. If yours has an issue you will know before your 1 year warranty is up. Wahoo’s CS is ver…

I would be taking a different approach with a second one being returned, particularly as they’re saying the issue is sorted. Good to hear they considered an alternative to sending you a third Core. I’m not a wattage bazooka or anything so the Core seems good on paper for me, unless it keeps breakin…

Bit late for that now unfortunately, perhaps naively I made a presumption that whatever was wrong with it initially would be sorted out if Wahoo are selling the units for £600 each. If it continues to be an issue I’ll discuss my options with them.
