We really enjoy the workout on this elliptical. The game feature is fun, however it does not “distract” you as much as you wish! The workouts are gym quality and you totally feel it the next day. The only complaint we have is that the heartrate monitor does not seem very accurate. I am not sure if there is a problem with the sensor or what, as this is not a show stopper for the actual workout. My goal is to do 30 mins/day and right now I am up to 25. Its very study and the stride is very smooth even though I am short and my other half very tall. We are both very glad that we purchased this model over the other ones and I can honestly say that I like working out on it.

My wife and I have had our elliptical for about a month now. Neither of us had used an elliptical before so we don’t have much to compare it to.
When the box came, it was really heavy and it was a workout in itself to set it up. It took about 2-3 hours. We haven’t gotten it quite leveled yet correctly but it is really solid. We bought it for the game fit technology since we thought the video game could be motivation but when working hard, it is hard to stay focused on the game. Mainly, we use the speakers for pod casts that distract us. We haven’t worked our way up to the most difficult workout programs yet but are surprised at how easy all the 20 minute ones are. They only go to resistance level 5 out of 12. I guess for the more difficult workouts you have to spend more time.
Overall, we are really pleased that it is actually fun to use and making us much more fit.

Once it’s put together it seems very sturdy. But took 2 people 3 hours to put together. Almost everything is put together with an allen wrench, I recommend buying a nice Allen wrench with a handle to get some leverage as some of these pieces are very hard to screw in all the way.
I recommend 1) nicer Allen wrench, 2) exacto knife to get it out of the box and make sure you have an adjustable wrench or you may never get the pedals attached firmly enough which causes them to wobble.
I just stepped off of it and it was great, so if you can handle the assembly it’s a good product. The pulse handle bars seem flimsy, but everything else seems very sturdy.

this elliptical is very smooth and sturdy. a lot of them i tried were kind of wobbly. the stride is perfect to where you can extend your arms and legs to a comfortable level. i would recommend this product.
