Has anyone else had a problem with the cables stiffening?

I have not. I did have a problem with the plastic surrounding the internal cables separating after about 6 months (those were the cheaper ones.) For these particular ones, it's only been 2 months and my volume is starting to go in and out of my left bud and I never play it at full capacity. -(

As of yet I have not had a problem with them, but it hasn't yet been a year.

No, I have not had that problem. The only problem is an occasional hum in the speakers.

It is a little stiffer than some but not enough that I questioned it...maybe you received a faulty one.

The cables and everything else is fine. Their customer support is great. Just remember that you do get what you pay for in some respect. This is not going to be as smooth as the pulldown in your local gym.

I had a something like that happen but only because of a bad connection with my cables and I was trying to do a dual monitor with a lesser resolution. FixING the cables and getting a better second monitor fixed it for me. Hope you didn't just get a bad monitor

Yes. I had it with my first one. Sent it back and they sent me a new one. New one started doing it again after 3 weeks. It's something to do with the connection. not sure about the quality of shielding used in the cables. If I move the cables around in the back of the monitor it will sometimes go away for a day or so, but always comes back. Annoying as hell. The only issue I've had with it so far.

Have you considered it might just be a bad cable. No matter how ridged a companies quality control is a faulty product can slip through. Have you asked twisted vines for a replacement?

I had a similar issue, and it turned out that a cable inside had snapped. I called the manufacturer and purchased a replacement cable for about $7. It was easy to install, and certainly worth the cost/effort.

Be sure your cables are routed properly then grab your cable and twist it until the pulley relaxes. Mine just started doing this after a year and this fixed it. You may have to repeat this from time to time especially if you change exercises a lot. Good luck.

Problems with the cables are rare. We send a New cable if there is any problem with it.

No, I have not had that happen. I would send them back or exchange them. They are definately worth it. I swear by these after many years of problems.

It could be that where is connect to could possibly be loose. I have not had that problem. But its said to be after much movement the cable tips could go bad

Yes, the cables on my machine are real good....... Ever so often you will have to un twist it due to certain exercises but other than that I have really enjoyed my machine

Not sure never had this problem. Sounds like the drive cable/rod is not engaging.

I have not had that problem with this cable; I have experienced that with other knock-off no name brand cables I bought prior to purchasing this one. I have had this one for 3 or 4 months now with no issues. I hope you find this information helpful!September ~ AlteredAttic.com ;-)

I purchased mine in December, 2012 and constantly disconnect/connect cables. Still strong and have that feeling of lock at the end when plug it in. I am totally happy.

Hi Jeannina! Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) My sincere apologies for missing your question previously! We have been plagued recently with people attempting to counterfeit our cables, due to our very high rating on these. So first of all, did you buy them directly from us or was it a second hand seller on Amazon? If it was second hand, that is likely the reason for the cable failure, they are not ours. Secondly, if you'll send a message to us at the following link along with your Order ID #, we'll of course replace them if they WERE purchased directly from us at The Friendly Swede. Anything else, please let me know here at this link:
