Creaking &amp; squeaking noises - did any of you have it &amp; fix it?

The creaking and squeaking came just before the chair self destructed. Try tightening all allen head screw/bolts. Be careful, this is a poor quality product, the arms are held in with small wood dowels and poor quality glue which will dry out. Also, the bottom back, where the long back rest slates fit in cracked all the way across. We did try to secure the arms by drilling pilot holes and the using drywall screws but it was a short lived fix. If it is new we recommend returning this item. As you can tell we are extremely disappointed with this product.

Mine rattles. I have been trying to troubleshoot but can't quite figure where it is coming from.

Adding my situation, had the dreaded squeaking on the left pedal, confirmed it was the rubber wheel against the rail bar. Tried all the solutions, loosening the arm nut, lubrication, but nothing worked. The noise got worse, and now the right side is making noises too. Drives me furious and kills my mood during exercise.

it isnt noisy or squeaky. i've had it since April and it's the same now as it was then. i'm only walking on it though, so running might make a difference. as for the incline, i never go above level 2. never measured it.

I think there may be a problem with your unit. I've had one of these since before Christmas, anyway, and it makes a kind of low hum when I use it, but no creaks. I weight about 210lb, so maybe I squash the creaks out of it, but I think you should get Rodeo to send you a replacement.

Mine is noisy too, a high pitch whirring sound. I wondered if mine was broken as well but it has great suction so I think it's suppose to sound like that :)

I'd also suggest making sure all the bolts are tight. They loosen up over time and I find that giving them a quick tightening occasionally helps reduce squeaking noises.

I would say probably try to go a little tighter to see if it stops the squeak if it doesn't maybe take the screw out reproduction a little and then reinstall.

I have found no noise or squeaking in the one I purchased. The person who sleeps on it doesn't move around a lot. Hope this helps

I had the same issue with a creaky mattress (not too bad). It quiets it very little. But still worth it

I actually didn't know there was such description. I have been using it for over an hour without any problem.I have been lubricating the contraption to get rid of the squeaky noise, perhaps that helped.

Mine squeek horribly. Called manufacturer and was told it was a known defect in the assembly process. I am waiting for replacements to be made.

I would also suspect defective. I can't remember anything about the setup that I would suspect could lead to squeaking. If anything, I think improper set up would lead to an unbalanced swing or poor range of motion but not squeaking. Have you tried to turn the motor on without the other parts attached? If it still makes the sound that would help confirm a defective motor.

if you have been lubricating it, it shouldnt make the sound. You can lubricate it even now. While doing so, you can celar the squeaking sound by adjusting the treadmill speed using the screws provided. It should be available near the leg of your tread mill at the very end. Have you ever tried that?

Thank you! That was definitely part of my problem. One last question: when opening, I hear a pleasant ratcheting sound, which I don't hear when closing. Does yours also not make that sound in one direction?

Yes, same here! Quite frustrating! Had to buy a new bed all together because my husband was annoyed with the noises & lack of quality of this one.

At first this bed didn't squeak. I have had it about 10 months and about a month ago it started squeaking when I roll over. Within a week the squeaking became noticeable with every movement. We've checked the screws and everything is tight.
