FAQs
With over 30 years of experience serving gyms nationwide, we've heard it all.
Here are the answers that matter most when choosing the right equipment partner.
See All FAQsDo you carry AAI equipment?
Yes! Midwest Gym Supply boasts the largest stock of AAI equipment in the country. AAI is the official equipment supplier for USA Gymnastics and is used in Olympic competition. When you choose AAI equipment through us, you're getting world-class equipment with unmatched reliability, precision engineering, and the same equipment used by champion gymnasts worldwide.
Do you carry Spieth equipment?
Yes! Midwest Gym Supply is proud to partner with Spieth — a legacy brand trusted globally across elite gymnastics programs. Spieth apparatus is designed with motion-supporting systems that enhance athlete performance, built with premium materials for durability, and approved for competition by International Gymnastics Federation (FIG).
What's the difference between new, reconditioned, used, and demo equipment?
New Equipment: Factory-fresh AAI, Spieth, and other brand equipment with full manufacturer warranties. Perfect for competition venues and gyms seeking the latest features.
Reconditioned Equipment: Previously owned equipment that has been professionally inspected, refurbished, and certified safe by our technicians. Offers 40–60% savings while meeting all safety standards.
Used Equipment: Pre-owned equipment sold as-is after safety inspection. Best for budget-conscious gyms, home training setups, or supplementary equipment needs. All equipment categories undergo our rigorous safety inspection process before sale.
Demo Equipment: Lightly used equipment that has been featured at meets, invitationals, and special events. Demo pieces are carefully maintained, cleaned, and inspected after every event—offering excellent value for programs wanting competition-grade equipment at reduced pricing.
Do you provide professional installation services?
Yes! Expert installation is included with most major equipment purchases. Our certified installation technicians have over 30 years of combined experience and have installed equipment in hundreds of gyms nationwide. We handle everything from single apparatus installation to complete gym buildouts, including spring floor installation, uneven bars and other apparatus setup, wall and pit padding installation, and electrical work for scoreboards and timing systems. Installation ensures proper safety compliance and optimal equipment performance.
Do you offer equipment exchange or trade-in programs?
Yes! We offer beam, vault table, and vault board exchange options. If you're upgrading to newer equipment, we'll evaluate your current apparatus and provide trade-in credit toward your purchase. This makes equipment upgrades more affordable and ensures your old equipment is properly recycled or refurbished for other gyms. Contact us with photos and details of your current equipment for a trade-in evaluation.
