Title: Not Worth It -- Spring for the Real Machines
Product review: I wanted my own cardio machine for my house but I had such a tight budget when I bought this. It might seem like a fair price, but I received no directions, the "heart monitor" in the center never worked no matter how many times I changed the batteries or pressed the one giant plastic button, and the whole thing is just so wobbly and fake. It feels like it's going to fall apart when I get on it -- and mind you, I'm a 101lb female! You can TELL it's the cheap version as you use it, which isn't pleasant. Not to mention, there isn't any elliptical action -- it's a straight forward and back sliding motion, so it's a very uncomfortably stiff walking sensation and therefore I don't feel like I'm burning that much or sweating at all or doing any real workout, even after 30 minutes. I would not recommend this at all. Save your money and buy a true elliptical because I'm sure THAT will be worth it.
