This is an excellent elliptical with a few faults. First, it pedals smooth, has a large easy to read display and doesn’t take up a lot of space. Second, my body doesn’t care if it’s burning calories on this machine or one that cost 3x more. Calories burned is the end goal and this machine does that well. Now for the negatives. I consider myself handy and own a lot of tools. I used both of those while building it. I needed help lifting it and getting the feet under it to attach. Also, like someone else mentioned, the lowest setting was difficult so I had to watch some YouTube videos and adjust the magnet near the wheel to provide a more realistic resistance. I left the swinging arms off of mine because I don’t use them. I hold the handles with heart rate monitor and the arms just get in the way or hit me when I reach for the remote or water bottle. I will include some pictures to show you how much assembly is required.

The elliptical arrived when it was supposed to. I am a 50 year old female and was able to put it together by myself. The paperwork indicates you have to register on ifit but all you have to do is hold down the blue button for several seconds and it activates without subscribing to their workout plan. The elliptical is NOT stable as indicated in other reviews. I plan to work on seeing if I can fix that. Overall it's worth the $599 I paid for it.

Nice elliptical machine. Feels very sturdy while using it. I like the ability to use different resistance levels as well as switching the incline to target different muscle groups. You can use this model with or with out the ifit wifi option. I purchased it on sale. Good value for the price. I would recommend purchasing the set up in any room and haul away of your old machine if needed.

The machine itself I give 5 stars. I assembled myself- very easy. I am no way a wrench person so IF can do it-so can you. A bit heavy so you need a second person to help lift. Works great just like the ones in the gym! My only complaint- IFIT only gave me 1 month free trial. However BB & ProForm indicate 12 months free with purchase of elliptical. After several emails to IFIT sending all the proof they ask for- I gave up waiting for a fix. I will never use them!

This is pretty frustrating... First, I too was duped into thinking that I was getting a full year of the Ifit membership upon purchasing this product, but no I only got the 30 days. Second, the power adapter snapped while I was working out... SO... Now the thing is not even working at all... Trying to find a replacement power adapter, but as of right now, I may be sending the whole thing back.
