Grip Strengthener Causes Thumb Discomfort: Company Takes Swift Action for Customer Safety


XPRT, a renowned provider of fitness and sports equipment, has recently been made aware of an issue in one of its grip strengtheners that may cause discomfort or pain in the thumb during usage. This announcement aims to inform customers about the matter and highlight the immediate measures taken by the company to address the concern and ensure the safety and satisfaction of its customer base.

Upon receiving customer feedback regarding discomfort experienced while using our grip strengthener, XPRT is taking these reports seriously and treating them as our utmost priority. We deeply regret any inconvenience or discomfort caused and are committed to rectifying the issue promptly.

Preliminary investigations have revealed that a small number of our grip strengtheners from batch codes 00125-01253 may have a design flaw that impacts the thumb area, potentially leading to discomfort or pain during use. Although only a limited number of customers have reported these concerns, we believe in being proactive and transparent with our valued customers.

In response to these reports, XPRT has taken swift action by suspending sales of the affected grip strengthener model. This suspension will remain in place until the product undergoes a thorough investigation and necessary modifications are made to eliminate the discomfort experienced by some users. Our design and engineering teams are fully engaged in resolving the issue, and we are actively working towards a solution to ensure the highest quality and safety standards are upheld.

Furthermore, XPRT has implemented a recall and refund program for customers who have purchased a grip strengthener from the affected batch. We urge customers who experience thumb discomfort or pain while using our grip strengthener to discontinue use immediately and contact our customer support team through the provided channels. The dedicated support team will guide customers through the return and refund processes and ensure a seamless experience.

In addition to the recall and refund program, XPRT is diligently reaching out to customers who have already purchased the affected grip strengtheners. Our customer support team is proactively contacting these customers and providing them with the necessary information and assistance to address their concerns. We are committed to assisting each customer in finding a suitable resolution that meets their needs.

Safety has always been a top priority for XPRT, and we deeply regret any inconvenience or discomfort caused to our customers. As a gesture of goodwill, all customers who return the affected grip strengthener will receive a replacement or a refund, including shipping costs, in acknowledgment of their trust in our brand and our commitment to their satisfaction.

XPRT would like to express gratitude to our customers for bringing this matter to our attention. We remain committed to providing exceptional products that enhance sports and fitness experiences without compromising safety or comfort. Our team is confident in delivering a modified grip strengthener that will ensure the utmost customer satisfaction.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience experienced by our customers and appreciate their patience during this process. XPRT values the trust our customers place in our brand and remains committed to remedying this situation swiftly and accurately. Further updates will be provided through our official website and other communication channels to keep customers informed of the progress made.

FitBeast Forearm Strengthener & Forearm Exerciser, Wrist Roller with Thicker Handle

Great addition to home gym

My husband and I built a home gym during covid and this is a great addition to our equipment. We already have good dumbbells, and this makes it very easy to get those forearms, wrists, and biceps.

Forearm Roller

This forearm roller is beefy! It's got large, comfortable handles, and a a heavy duty strap, caribiner, and extension strap. It's a decent weight on its own, which adds a bit to whatever you are rolling. It's designed well with the strap securely fastened to the roller and the extension strap available to thread through for odd sized weights. This makes it versatile and easy to use with dumbell, kettlebells, plates, or other items. I dare say you could use a cinder block if need be! It's marked with percentages which I guess aid in tell you how close to fully wound you are? I'm not sure this is strictly necessary as its easy to see, but it doesn't hurt to have. Overall I'm very impressed with the build quality and absolutely think it's worth the money. Recommended for sure!

Wrist roller with absolutely no complaints

This wrist roller is a game changer for arms day. And I don't think I've ever said this before but I can't think of anything I would change.

Pros: The handle grips a bigger around (thicker) than other versions I've seen. The texture on the grips gives your hands good traction, with or without gloves on. The extender strap is nice if you're going around something big, and if the extender makes the strap too long, you can just stand on a weight bench. The percentage marks on the strap was a surprise and made me chuckle, but I could see it being a legit need, like if you're counting reps and you can't quite get another full rep, you could record how close you got to completing that final rep. It comes with an instruction booklet that is well-written and has helpful images; it shows how to attach weights, how to use the extension, several exercise variations you can do and which muscles will be targeted. No sharp metal anywhere. Aluminum carabiner and D ring. Lightweight yet durable. It comes in a gift-able, attractive package.

Cons: None that I can think of. The only thing would be if any part of it breaks. It seems like solid construction so I don't think that's likely. But if it happens I'll come edit my review. I do wrist rollers almost every arm day, so this thing is about to get a lot of use.

Overall this is amazing and not just because it's replacing my homemade wooden dowel/parachute cord/climbing carabiner contraption that I've been using for years. Great value for the money imho. And a great gift idea.

Versatile

This is pretty handy for those forearm exercises you always neglected to do xD But honestly, this is versatile, and you can use this will all kinds of exercise equipment and even things around the house (backpack filled with bags of rice, water jugs, etc). COVID has made people look for exercise solutions at home, and this helps! there's a helpful instruction guide and an extra strap :)

Simple and Very Effective

I've never tried one of these before, but have been having problems with my hands giving out before my back muscles on pull ups, so I thought I'd give this a try. I'm so glad I did. First couple sets with light weight absolutely you're me out. It will be great to be able to isolate those muscles to get them up to speed.

This particular unit is strong and well made. It's a simple design with quality materials and good stitching, so it'll probably last a long time. Large grip on the bar is definitely the way to go.

Highly recommend.
