I surrender. I spent another two hours finishing up the elliptical, and damn it looks good. Then I plugged it in, and NOTHING. Blew on the plug, flipped it around, and tried it again. Still, NOTHING. Was getting a Christmas Vacation flashback where he can't get the lights to turn on. I'm sure it's something I did in putting it together, but the wiring was back in step 3 out of 11. Plus the machine is crazy loud. I was under the impression it would be whisper-soft and wouldn't wake the neighbors. Cue an 8 a.m. phone call to the Nordictrack helpdesk, and supposedly someone will be coming out to see how tragically I put this thing together. Hoping he can fix it, because I had to rip apart all the boxes to even get this monstrosity into my apartment, so no clue how I would send it back (assuming I can). Sweet!!
Not to mention the plethora of bruises that are still brewing under the surface on both arms and legs. Good thing it's not bathing suit season anymore.

The elliptical may have won, but I'll bet it's got lots of bruises too. Take no prisoners!
ReplyDeleteRepairman coming tomorrow. Fingers crossed it was just put together wrong. Actually, that's pretty much a guarantee.
