Did anyone else have trouble with the assembly? It seems to me the holes in the round wooden parts for the metal rods to go through are too small.

We did not have this problem. The rack is very sturdy and no glue was needed.

I did not have this particular problem but I did have a bit of a problem assembling the top part with the rods coming down through.

I marked the holes after making sure the holes were level. It would not mount fully assembled. I took it apart and mounted the two side pieces individually. After the sides were mounted on the wall I lined up the middle parts and tightened with the allen wrench.

I did not find the Pre-assembled worked as good as the other ones (I have no idea why.) I went back to the reg.ones. Maybe you will have better luck I don't know. LLee

This was the hardest part of putting the unit together for me. The holes are way small and don't stretch.. The holes have what I think is a thin metal ring. I had to gently rip the ends open, it takes a bit of force but when it lets go it makes a pop sound, then they slide right on. Hope this helped.

I wish I would have seen these comments before trying to assemble ours! NO manual and we had a heck of a time getting them put together. Same issue with the holes not lining up, I'm wondering if it would have been easier if we didn't tighten the screws all the way until they were all in....I don't know? We nearly stripped our screws but muscled through it and got them assembled. Really cool chair; just a pain to assemble.

It's kind of a pain to assemble. I had to call the manufacturer. I only assembled my unites once and let them be so I don't remember exactly how to put it together but there is a very specific way to do it!

I had to drill holes also. It's possible they are all like this. It wasn't difficult to assemble though. I did it myself with no problem.

I do not remember having any problems. but I have done a lot of assembling of other items, so either you got a defective part, I got lucky, or it is just practice makes if not perfect, at least easier, but I would suggest calling the manufacturer and get a replacement.

I had no problem assembling it, anytime you have metal that has bends in it you sometimes have to put a little pressure on them to get the pieces to slip in together. My total time was about 15 minutes to assemble

I also had a problem with assembly, but the only thing that saved me is I had another golf net and the parts were somewhat a like. That knowledge and the basic diagrams that came with the set is how I got it all set up. I am sorry I can not help more. It would take a small book to tell you a step by step how to assemble the 3 in 1 unit. Don Geib

I know, it need lot of imagination to get it assembled... gosh, I don't remember how I got it at the end, but I did reassemble a few time to get it right. ==" and the end product is ok. Sorry, I wish I could help. :(

We assembled it together slowly. Keep looking at the picture on the box along with the instructions. It helped my husband if I held some pieces for him, but we got it. We just went slow. It's was worth the trouble to me and I love it.

Yes, I had trouble getting it assembled the first time, but now that it is on there it hasn't moved. I wish I remembered how I got it figured out.

I remember having the same problem. Try something different for the spacer or cut the spacer in half. Once you get it to snap together, it will be fine. It has been assembled and in heavy use by my 5 year old since I bought it.

Hey Donna; I had trouble putting one of the bolts through one of the holes where the arm meets the foot pipe. I got stuck on that one part for about 30 minutes to an hour. It was like the holes were not synced when they were cut. It took some moving around and a few grey hairs later voila! I had my issue on the "L" footbar and arm bar. I had to maneuver the arm and leg every which way to get it to fit. Eventually it ended up going in; could not tell you what I did to force it to fit. It was like little effort did it over my weak force! I hope you ae able to get it to work. I am on the elliptical as I write this and it is an amazing pice of equipment.

I'm sorry, I can't help! My son put it together and if I remember correctly, it was a pain. Good luck!
