Do machines lose effectiveness over several years?

RE: Do machines lose effectiveness over several years?
I have the 10 to your nine in the "for her" model and really enjoy it. It's nice looking, quiet and my numbers are very low. Paping can be fun as well as good for you.

RE: Do machines lose effectiveness over several years?
Most insurance companies will replace a machine after 5 years, regardless if the current one is working or not.

If your doctor gives you a hard time, replace him/her too. Smile Just kidding...your doctor sounds like he’s on your side. Take his advice and go for a newer machine.

Yours is still working fine, so keep it as a backup machine.
