5 Bad Music Boxing Machine Reviews (And What We Learned)

5 Bad Music Boxing Machine Reviews (and What We Learned)

No product is perfect, and even the One Punch music boxing machine has faced its share of constructive criticism. The good news? We’ve taken these reviews to heart and worked hard to improve the experience. Below, we’re diving into five bad reviews—don’t worry, they’re not too bad—and how they helped us level up the machine you love.

1. “It’s Too Loud! My Neighbors Think I’m Running a Nightclub”

One customer’s review from Germany was a real earful: "I love the One Punch machine, but it’s LOUD. Between the music and the sound of my punches, my neighbors are convinced I’ve opened a nightclub. I’m expecting noise complaints any day now."

What We Learned

We admit, the original version of the One Punch V1 didn’t exactly come with a volume knob. So, we went back to the drawing board and added adjustable volume settings about a year ago. Now, you can punch along to your tunes without getting an eviction notice. Problem solved! If you're curious about the changes, check out our blog post where we explain the updates in detail.

2. “The Sync Is Off—It’s Like Punching in the Twilight Zone”

Another user from UK commented: "The lights and music are supposed to sync with my punches, but sometimes they’re out of whack. It’s like I’m in a glitchy episode of the Twilight Zone. Help!"

What We Learned

The sync issue was a tough one to punch through, that is actually what makes our machine better than others but we knew it had to be fixed. After listening to this and similar feedback, we improved the sync capabilities in the One Punch V3. Now, the lights and music align perfectly with each punch, making your workout smoother than ever.

3. “The App Crashed More Than I Did”

One of our more tech-savvy customers wasn’t too happy with the original app: "The app crashed mid-workout, and trust me, it crashed harder than I did. I spent more time restarting it than actually boxing. Annoying."

What We Learned

App glitches are the worst, so we prioritized updating the software. We’ve since released multiple app updates to fix the bugs. Now, the One Punch V2 and its accompanying app offer a seamless experience. Pro tip: Keep your app updated for the smoothest workout possible.

4. “Not Enough Song Variety—Can I Get Something Other Than EDM?”

One user had this to say about the music selection: "Okay, I like EDM, but every session feels like I’m stuck in a rave. Where’s the variety? Can we get some rock or even classical in here? Mozart deserves some love too!"

What We Learned

We heard you! While the initial music selection leaned heavily toward electronic dance music, we’ve since broadened our library. Now, you can punch to everything from hip-hop to classical music, with new songs added regularly. Whether you want to throw punches to Beethoven or Beyoncé, we’ve got you covered. The music library upgrade has been a big hit—pun intended.

5. “It Took Over My Living Room”

One of our customers didn’t realize the machine would require a bit of space: "I didn’t expect this thing to take over my living room. My couch is now part of the obstacle course. Not cool."

What We Learned

We get it—space is precious. We also learned from this research about music boxing machines. That’s why we made sure the latest One Punch V3 is more compact and easier to store. You can now fold it away when you're not using it, leaving more room for your Netflix binges. Check out this blog post for tips on maximizing your punch power.
