When ordering, there were the usual problems: several days' delivery is being prepared ", but the delivery was surprisingly still on time (one would have to rely on the Verandstatus would have missed the delivery). Following the delivery of the state was still on the way, "Shipping is prepared" !? Possibly should here Amazon reconsider its austerity plan and invest less in developing its own smart phones and video portals, but rather in the core business (including well-paid qualified employees and reliable logistics partner to its prime guarantee to effectively comply could). The availability and next day delivery are unfortunately increasingly a matter of luck rather than guarantees.
Back to the topic:
The package (just under 30kg!) Was secured with tape and roped, the board was, however, touched on the center (an additional outer packaging was not available).
The items (manual, strung Bank, handles / foam covers, rod / stud frame made of tubular steel, screws and tools) were partially wrapped in foil and partially thinner foam sheet; in some elements but it looked as if they had been repackaged and not professional (returns?).
When careful unpacking of metal pipes came a first disillusionment: scratches in the paintwork of the first crossbars and patches (fingerprints on the leatherette / Kunstoffbespannung the Bank). The latter are certainly easy to remove with a cloth.
The Haupgestänge (a metal cross made of square tube on which the deck is attached) was processed completely flawed: very poorly executed welds (uneven thickness, inclusions, Interrupted), visible rust, sharp metal tabs / ridges - and a massive dent in the square tube and the end of the weld an indentation probably due to thermal stress.
When stress here the pipe would definitely by kink - and that is extremely dangerous, if one hangs upside down in the instrument! On another unpacking or the construction I have omitted here. The operating / assembly instructions was the way of stapled copies and was in French (Francaise Manual).
Small scratches in the paint, finger prints, like a repackaged metal rod. But even a favorable price ratio does not justify these dangerous workmanship. Here Amazon should be strongly active and require a certification. Also of note on the maximum load limit of 125kg is doubtful if even at delivery components are pressed. Corresponding pictures I have added.
Conclusion: The "murder machine" I will pick up again ...
Supplement May 5, 2014: Apparently Amazon or Gorilla Sports has my customer images removed or well hidden? I will therefore publish my review along with additional images in reviews and Idealo.
