Reviews around size (5.00 of 5)

  • PRO-durability: have had no mechanical failures or problems whatsoever-compact size: 4'x2'x5'
  • Compact size makes it easy to fit just about anywhere and it is quiet when in use.
  • So obviously the compacted size is the most important reason I chose this model
  • sometimes I wish we got a normal sized elliptical because we cannot fully extend our legs on the machine, since it’s the compact size
  • We bought this for its compact size and it delivers on that promise

Reviews around stride (4.26 of 5)

  • Well built, solid body, nice strides.. fits perfectly in my small room.
  • Perfect for home use who are looking for a good stride length (18 in) for a small room
  • First impressions of the machine are good: compact, smooth, good stride, quiet, nice functionality
  • I honestly don't think a person taller than 5'6" would enjoy the stride on this machine if you want to feel like you're running
  • PROS: decent stride 18", compact, price, easy to move since it has front wheelsCONS: monitor for stats is completely inaccurate, distance is off by more the half a mile, makes some creaking noiseTook about 2.5 hours for 2 people to assemble

Reviews around space (4.21 of 5)

  • Really does not take up much space either, double bonus.
  • It probably took that long because our space is limited and we cannot move freely
  • Perfect space saving option for the corner of my bedroom
  • This is a smaller elliptical & fits my space fairly well
  • I chose this particular model because we've precious little space and it is perfect

Reviews around range (4.16 of 5)

  • I am 5’5” and i think the range of motion is just perfect for me
  • It is a compact machine, so the range of motion is somewhat limited (we formerly used a Precor with a longer stride) but it doesn’t detract from the exercise we get
  • It is a compact machine, so the range of motion is somewhat limited (we formerly used a Precor with a longer stride) but it doesn’t detract from the exercise we get
  • The range of motion is not as great as the large ones at the gym, but it still gives a good workout.
  • It's very compact and quiet, yet has great range of motion

Reviews around motion (4.16 of 5)

  • The motion is pretty smooth, though it's nowhere near as smooth as a gym machine
  • I’m used to a larger elliptical with a smooth motion that is easy to get up to a higher speed
  • The motion is a little weird though and leaves me feeling pretty nauseated
  • Motion is smooth and quiet.
  • Pros: compact, provides the same smooth elliptical motion as a gym machine, seems solid and well built

Reviews around quality (3.75 of 5)

  • I’ve been looking for a compact and solid quality elliptical for a while and this just hit the market a few months ago
  • Excellent quality machine, gives a great workout, easy to put together with patience, doesn't take up a lot of room, and I bought it on
  • And the Schwinn / Nautilus name gives me more confidence than the seemingly hundreds of Chinese knock-offs of unknown quality and support
  • It's made in China, and poor quality.
  • It is very sturdy and good quality for a at home elliptical

Reviews around product (3.57 of 5)

  • Terrible product and terrible customer service
  • Overall, the Schwinn 411 compact elliptical machine is a nice product
  • Would not recommend this product.
  • Product worked 3 days and the roller on the right started to stick and acted as if there was no tension release for the right roller.
  • So, why does this product lose 1 star

Reviews around bite (1.80 of 5)

  • It came in as a huge heavy box, though the outside of the box was damaged a little bit, inside all the parts were at their places and well protected
  • and I have to lean a bit to reach them
  • I've used the supplied lubricant, tried a little bit of WD-40, and neither works for more than maybe 90 seconds
  • I was worried about the stride length and it does bother me a bit at
  • A bit overwhelmed to drag the heavy box in and start unpacking, but breath deep and enjoyed each step of assembly
  • Read remaining 7 reviews for bite

Reviews around noise (1.78 of 5)

  • It is really quiet, makes no squeaking or creaking noises at all
  • Works great, no noise
  • It lasts for 1 minute before you get a very VERY loud noise.
  • After several weeks of use, my 411 started to make really objectionable squeaky noises
  • It's not loud but does make some noise, nothing too annoying
  • Read remaining 12 reviews for noise

Reviews around time (1.54 of 5)

  • I took some time to get it assembled, but no problems with the directions etc
  • I struggled to do 10 minutes on the easiest setting the first time I used
  • Not worth my time!So in short, the machine is excellent but, if you want the whole experience, purchase norditrack, or bowflex.
  • I regret the time I wasted in assembling and disassembling the machine, and in dealing with customer service
  • Took the time to lay pieces out and put the 411 together solo

Reviews around calory (1.44 of 5)

  • Argh!Another thing is that you'll be working out for well over 20 minds and barely burn 50 calories
  • On a regular elliptical machine, I can count on burning on average at least maybe a few calories a minute- this machine says I’ve only burned 15 calories after using the machine for 30 minutes
  • I burn 250 calories at the gym in 20 mins
  • Which will help you (for sure) to burn more calories.
  • Easy way to burn some calories while watching tv

Reviews around display (1.00 of 5)

  • The display with the total CAL, distance and heart rate is basically useless as it's somehow always around 60cals after 30 min of use at full resistance
  • I don't need complex fitness programs or displays either, for me keeping a steady heart rate while zoning out with an audiobook or movie is my happy place
  • Cons: the display seems cheap, the heart-rate monitor reading is all over the place (erratic) and inaccurate (but I didn't buy it for that anyway.)
  • Only drawback is display is hard to see and no incline.

Reviews around star (1.00 of 5)

  • I would have given this 3 stars, but on about its 7th hour of usage one of the ball bearings broke underneath the foot plate, and stained our carpet underneath.
  • So, why does this product lose 1 star
  • I am docking a star for this since it's annoying to deal with for a whole 30 minutes

Reviews around floor (1.00 of 5)

  • We have hard wood floors in the house and the machine was moving quite a bit sideways when in use, so we put it on a thick yoga mat and problem solved
  • In order to avoid possibly staining my floor, I placed a piece of cardboard down under the rails before spraying
  • It also sounds as if it is scrapping my floors when I’m working
  • It is recommended that it be on a hard floor.

Reviews around sound (1.00 of 5)

  • High resistance even at lowest level, often makes squeaking sounds but they go away after applying the lubricant, calorie count is way off mark
  • I first started using it the "pinion" bar produced some grinding sounds and I adjusted the tightness of the bolts and screws to no avail.
  • There is a little noise; nothing awful like clunking or grinding, but a whooshing sound that could be heard somewhat in another room
