But there is a thing call a warranty!! this unit has the full warranty on it. All you have to do is call the manufactor and tell them what happend. They will either replace the part that broke or they will work with you on getting you taken care of.

There is not a way to exented the warrranty. Amazon offers that only since they take care of the warranty after it expires.

I did review the product, not in comparison to other elliptical machines, but as a form of exercise in general. My point was that most people would benefit from different, better forms of exercise, and I listed several recommendations on how to do that.

But then, haters gotta hate I guess. You must live in one of the crappy states, those people seem to have crappy attitudes compared to us here with year round sunshine

Accept it with their compliments??? Doesn't that usually mean it's free?

Looks cheap, but the price is right. For a hard core trainer, I would stay away. For your slightly overweight spouse, I would give it a go.

Wait 6 months and 1/2 of what is sold here will be on your local craigslist, ebay, etc. It might even come with some hangers and laundry and will be advertised as 'only used once'.

Oregon and Nebraska - map looks like you will have a lot of good deals coming up.



That was my thought (I live in Oregon)...

Sorry, not even close. Those aren't bad but they do nothing like an Elliptical.

You are sooo wrong unless you keep it at a low resistance and/or elevation. If you challenge yourself by increasing each you'll find it takes between 6-7 min to get you workout started. A good workout typically uses 500 calories in about 34 mins.

Typically you will find (retail) machines with strides of 18"-20" (sometimes 22" but that's usually only when the ramp is raised to the max). I'm 6' even and PREFER a 20" stride, but the 18"'s don't feel too much different. You shouldn't notice a "small" feel at 17" unless you have long legs (proportionally to your torso, that is).

Get it as close to the base as possible the first time, then you will be less likely to have to do it again..

That was absolutely meant to be taken both personally and offensively. A jibe in good jest is one thing; but that was just plain mean.

This is not a product review page, it is a community forum for whatever relevantly spurs off from the topic which is the item being sold.

True. We're also drop shipping these guys, so the delay is possibly the fault of the vendor's. I'll let you all know if I know of any delays.

woot. I've been enjoying one last binge before I get myself in shape. It has been great, but if this doesn't ship soon I will exceed the maximum weight on this thing and then I will be doomed to morbid obesity. Forever. Don't make me live the scooter life! Ship it soon!

Any update on when this will ship? I cannot say I am happy to have had my card charged for something a week before it even ships...maybe it would ship faster if you were not allowed to take peoples money before hand.

We're being told by the vendor that it's shipped. Our contact was out yesterday and is attempting to get the tracking numbers to us today though it seems more likely that we'll have them by Monday instead. They're shipping via FedEx, but it doesn't seem like they're using our order numbers as a reference like we do, so I'm not able to pull up anyone's tracking number myself. I apologize for the delay, but we are working hard on getting this resolved.

It's still in the box, because I haven't had time to open the box. I'll let you know what I think when I open it up and put it together.

I, too, have yet to receive mine. We are not alone, my woot brethren. I didn't realize it had been nine days. That's outraaaaageous.

Not only would I have lost five pounds by now but my glutes would be ROCK HARD.
