Title: Back Pain City
Review: This elliptical was actually easy to put together with no missing parts. The directions were nice, detailed and clear. It started squeaking after a little while, but was fixed by loosening up some of the screws that joined the pedal bars to the main center piece. The only complaint I have is that the pedals are kind of small... I can't get my feet forward enough so I end up leaning forward if I want to grab the handles, and that makes my back hurt. *Edit - this small-pedal-issue is more than just a small complaint. Any time I've ever tried to use it I had sharp lower back pains the next day. I used it yesterday for the first time in about a year (I routinely use ellipticals at the gym) and I am in awful pain today. I feel like the bar underneath the foot pedals is not placed right, like the foot pedals should be moved further forward, and then I'd be fine. Anyhow, I'll be looking to sell this elliptical. Barely used, since my back can't take it.
Is the review positive or negative?
