After a lot of frusteration and playing around with this product, i got it to work without snapping, its only been a couple of days but i am feeling like my legs are getting a really good workout.

I too am returning this product. After using it only four or five times, it broke. It will not snap into any position at all. The resistance was only good on the inner thigh. The other four seemed too easy and the bun kick especially was very unsteady and not even possible for my left leg. I just received an ra number today and will return it. I will be out the cost of returning it and the original 19.95 shipping fee. They offered to replace it with the extended warranty but who wants to replace a product after only 5 uses? Great concept if only it worked!

I bought the "Buns and Thigh Max" a week ago I was really excited about the product,I did the 16 min. workout tape severals times through the tape the man on there would say how durable the thing was and not to worry you could not break it. well I was using the machine for the 5th time and guess what... Thats right the thing came apart right where you ajust your tension. I paid 60.00 for this "durable machine" that fell apart after 5 uses. I suggest not to waste your money on it. Very Disappointed

After reading the reviews, I was hesitant about ordering the product, but went ahead and ordered the product anyway. I'm glad I did. It's compact and really gives me a nice little workout at work when I'm on the phone and working on the computer. I think the reason why I didn't have the same problem as many others is probably because I actually read through the instructions and watched the instruction video. I've recommended the product to a couple of my friends, and they love it too!

I purchased the Bun and Thigh Max to help tighten up my inner thighs, outer thighs and buttocks for the Summer months. When I received the product, I was so disappointed in not only the cheap piece of equipment, but the videos that came along with it. I would suggest to everyone out there to NOT PURCHASE the Bun and Thigh Max. It was a total waste of money!

I have never written a complaint about anything before, but I just can't help myself. This poduct is definately a waste of money. I have been a dancer my whole life and I have purchased many things, and this has to be the worst product that I have ever brought into my house. I found it hard to balance on, and it does not give you the proper range of motion for the back kick. I kept hitting my foot on the ground and my stationary leg. I expected to receive a video that actually took you through a workout with the machine, but instead I got a demonstration tape and a cardio tape. There never was a workout video with the machine that was like what they showed on the infomercial. Please look into buying something else. This is not worth your money. I recently purchased a Gazelle and I really like it. You might try something like that instead.

Do not spen your time or money on this machine, it is by far the most unuseful piece of junk in my entire house. It does not stay in place and I have only used it 6 times and it is starting to make noises. You will be better off doing leg exercises on the floor and saving yourself $60 plus the 20 dallar shipping fee for a seven pound machine that should cost $5-$10 dallars to ship.

What can I say but a total scam. One of the top three worse fitness products I have ever purchased. I highly recommend anyone who bought this to return it immediately. A complete waste of time and money.

I purchased the bun and thigh max and thought it was horrible. It kept on moving out of place, my feet did not fit properly on the padding (and I have small feet) and the padding was coming apart. It was alo uncomfortable against my legs. I immediately returned it to the store where I bought it and received a full refund.
- Jan of Washington, USA writes:
This is a piece of plastic junk. It broke, totally, within one week of very light use. It may be somewhat appropriate for a very small, very weak person, but it is not designed for a person of any height or substance. It is unstable, uncomfortable, and more hassle to use than not. One could get much better muscle isolation exercises without any equipment at all. Do not buy this!

I certainly wish that I had read the reviews in this forum before purchasing the Bun And Thigh Max for myself, because then I would have realized it was a huge mistake. I totally agree with the comments that it was a "cheap, plastic piece of junk", and furthermore it doesn't even line up correctly to fit your body. It constantly "snaps" out of place which you are warned several times about during the video. It is annoying and difficult to try to line up the resistance arrows and is overall a HUGE disappointment. I, too was excited about receiving it and when I first pulled it from the box, was almost amused (in a sarcastic way) at the piece of equipment that I had just spent a decent amount of money on. Were they kidding? I gave it the benefit of the doubt and tried it out using the instructional video and quickly knew that this was money not well spent. I am definitely going to ship mine back a.s.s.p. I own several pieces of reputable equipment so I am informed enough to know when I am being "ripped off". After reading the other reviews, it is obvious that the majority of us agree that you are wasting your money and your time to purchase the Bun and Thigh Max.

I purchased the bun and thigh max. I received no receipt with the purchase. After using the product for 3 days it broke. I purchased a lifetime warranty, but I don't want another one.
- Margy of North Carolina, USA writes:
As I watched the infomercial, something told me that this was too good to be true, but my trusting innerchild fell for the scam hook, line, and sinker. When I got the Bun and Thigh Max, I was ready to watch the inches melt away. well, the only thing that melted away was the money I paid for two pieces of plastic glued together. I couldn't even get it to stay in place in order to begin excerising. Do yourself a favor, buy some leg weights and do your own leg exercises. That's what I am doing.

This is the worst piece of junk out there!!! Mine got sent right back! Don't waste your money!

Do not waste your money. The product is difficult to adjust and won't stay in place when exercising. I sent mine back because it was cheaply made.

I bought this product as a report card gift and it is not worth it! Not only does it not work, there was no burn, and my muscles did not even seem to be bulging at all. When the lady said on the tape that I should be feeling a burn I could not help but laughing. I am going to return it, and thanks to this new found website, I will buy a system that seems suitable with my well-earned money. Afer all, the reviews for this machine were the same as mine.

This is a piece of junk. I knew, when ordering, I was making a mistake but I took the plunge anyway. The actual Bun and Thigh Max is a hunk of plastic that is difficult to manuver and doesn't sit comfortably between your legs. For the calf exercises, where the machine is supposed to look like a leg press, it kept snapping and I thought I broke it, but it is just a piece of garbage. The videos that come with it are low budget (one is in a living room!) and don't use the product. The cardio video doesn't use the "Max" at all. Don't waste your money. I did and I regret it.
- Vickie of New Jersey, USA writes:
I had seen the infomercial for this product many times. Turns out with every variation of exercise you must adjust the unit.. my problem is my hands are just too darn small to grasp it and pull the "arms" apart to vary the tension.. I am really out of luck since the mall retailer does not issue any refunds! If I'm lucky I can exchange it for another product. I would say think twice before buying this if you are someone with small hands.. at no point in the infomercial do they ever show the female model actually trying to adjust the unit on her own.. this is misleading to a prospective buyer.

I wish I had found this site before purchasing this product. First of all, it took more than 4 wks to arrive. So when I finally received it I was so excited. Talk about a big disappointment. I followed the instructional video (even had to rewind it back to the beginning several times) and this so called "excellent piece of equipment" would not stay locked. Every time I tried to press down on it with my foot, it would collapse. It is made using cheap plastic (the type that cheap children toys are made of)and the instructional video is nothing more than a comedy act. Give me a break! My money would have been better spent at the gym. I should have paid $6.00 instead of $60. This is definitely the worst piece of equipment ever. A definite ZERO!
- Andrea of New Jersey, USA writes:
I agree with the majority here! This product is not worth the money!! The videos are the most ridiculous things I have ever seen!! What a joke!! I could have produced a better fitness video in my own home!! The videos don't even use the Bun & Thigh Max...just some weird woman doing jumping jacks..etc. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!
