“Just wanted to give you some positive feedback on my experience so far. I have to say the two gentlemen that delivered my treadmill were very polite, friendly and efficient. Also, I am impressed by the quality of the treadmill, I wasn’t expecting such a good quality treadmill and for it to be brand new too. I have been telling all my friends what a good service I have received and am very happy to recommend your company should anyone want to hire some home gym equipment.”

“We hired a treadmill so that my wife could keep up some gentle exercise at home while she was on maternity leave. The treadmill provided by Home Gym was perfect, a much sturdier model than I expected based on my experience of home treadmills, and at a fair price. Home Gym delivered and installed the treadmill within a few days of my enquiry and at a time convenient for us, then when it came to the end of our rental period there was no fuss – they came to pick it up immediately.”
