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
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

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
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.
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.

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
