Lloyd I bought the fitvibe machine and it works great... Should I feel big difference when changing intensitiy, I mean amplitude from low to high?  Cause I dont.

Always ask yourself just one question if listening to any of that kind of stuff..... Why do 99% of the worlds commercial locations use the machines these people say will kill or hurt me. But after 12 years, no reports of damage.

Im just wondering about EMF radiation with vibration plates. Is there any concern with  AC motors? Any info on that?

 It is possible. But I would need to see it....Got a link or send me a photo by email    

Lloyd, is it possible that fitvibe plate has different name. Im asking because the plate Im trying to buy looks exactly like fitvibe, but has different name written on machine and also in software. Have you ever heard of that? Im just trying to make sure its the right plate before I buy it but I dont want to post the link to it  here.

Handlebar .....  Sorry don't know if it is detachable. Long time since I seen one. 

One more thing, can you remove the holder from plate, I ask that for transportation purposes.

Thank you, Can you tell me can this  machine be placed  on flooring?

Cons......   No warranty.   

It has come down to two plates, Dkn xg 10 vs fittvibe medical old model with separate control. Would like to hear your opinion, pros and cons. Thanks.

Hey Guys,

What do you think about this one from the bulletproof guy...

http://www.bulletproof.com/whole-body-vibration-plate

Looking at power plate My5

im in the US , have had nervous system issues,  neuropathy , proprioception, balance problems . With proper use can this machine help me or do more harm    

Felt I could walk better, feel the ground better after trying it out 

  Fitvibe medical over the newer Pro .

The pro just has a bigger plate which makes things like the wide stance squat and proper pushup position possible.  .

Lloyd, could you make a comparison between Fitvibe medical and fitvibe pro excel in terms of force developed. I can get a used fitvibe m. for under 2000 eur, and there is also someone selling pro excel but I think is very expensive. What would be a good price for both, both used? Thanks

 Very old models....  piss weak. Only good for rehab.  

I found some strange DKN models and these are DKN evolve, DKn pro extreme and DKN Dunlop. How are they compared to DKN xg10? Are those old models? No info on KN force found. Thanks for all info, I am really learning a lot from you.

Standard Medium Energy Level units. Weaker than powerplates .

The only exercise contraindication for Vibration Training is no heavy weights straight afterwards.

Does anyone know anything about Bremshey or tunturi vibration plates?

H Guys,

I am a long time user of Vibra Train, 3 sessions a week. I have recently started doing high intensity interval training on a exercycle,  also 3 x a week.

My question is,  should I do the interval training on the same day as theVibra Train, or should I do it on alternate days.

Thanks

Glenys

 Ok. After 12 years.. Never heard of a FitVibe Medical going down. And I have used one myself.

Also Globus and DKN , but they are newer brands.

The thing is i would buy a used machine, all these machines I listed are being sold as used in countries near by , so I dont count on service support very much. Some of the machines are being refurbished and even renamed. Dont know if that is good. Considering this I guess the most important factor for me would be the quality, so it doesnt break often. So which firm according to your info is best known for having least repairs?

 Quite simply David. Getting the machine you feel is well backed up warranty wise is a big thing. As they are the price of a small car.

David..... My opinion with all relevant info

Power Plate classic .... Good. But if it breaks, that might be it.

Old Vibrogym  .... Good unit. But Vibro-Gym now run by Power Plate people whom you should never trust. So if it breaks ? 

Fitvibe medical.....  ( very rare ) Technically a better option thanks to the separate electronics. Best to see if they still service them though.

 Globus fit  Globus Mygold  ...   Both good options if company is active in your area.

Dkn xg10?  ......   Yes a bit lighter. But great reputation to date. No issues with their service.

Im trying to decide between many units. So what would be best, power plate classic, old vibrogym, fitvibe medical, which has separate control unit, globus fit, globus Mygold or dkn xg10? Dkn seems a little weaker but is very quiet. Are all others pretty much same units with differrent cover? Thank you.

I would go for the larger plate only for this reason. Same electronics, same motors etc....

I found that globus has one more bigger plate, It is called phisioplate Fit, the specs and weight seems the same as MyGold model, the only difference is it says it only has 9G, and the design is more like older vibrogym or powerplate. It also cost about 1000 eur less than Gold model. Do you nknow anything about this machine? Is it strong enough compared to Gold model Thanks for all the informations.

Nothing wrong with the specs. The motors should last years. Even if a bearing goes, they are very cheap to replace.

The electronics are the only risk really. And that can only be predicted by the breakdown rate of other Globus Gold units. So all you can really do is contact them and ask for an honest answer and costing of replacement parts.
