I bought a Tonal second hand but almost brand new. Before I bought it I talked to Tonal and they informed me that the warranty would not transfer but they would support the product. After 2 months of total use, in the middle of a workout, the screen goes white. The program is still running in the background but nothing can be seen. After powering the device off and trying to reset it multiple times, I called Tonal. Eventually, customer support emailed me back. They said that since I was the second owner they would not do anything to help. Two representatives offered to remotely access the Tonal and try a reset, but they were overridden by customer support. They told me that this is a known software issue but won't give me any details or try to fix it. I offered to pay for a technician to fix the product or to exchange the original Tonal for a new one at a discounted price, and they refused. The only thing that they would be willing to do was sell me a new Tonal at the upcoming sale price, $50 less than the current price.
The idea and programs are great when it works. I really enjoyed using it. Unfortunately, the quality and reliability is poor and it rarely works for long. Even though Tonal told me they would support the device, they don't. Bottom line is that once the warranty has expired and it malfunctions, which frequently happens judging from reviews and their customer service, all you have is a $4000 wall hanging.
