Great elliptical, great starter system. Quality pretty good. Price is good for beginner elliptical does the job and we love it. There is obviously better quality but for much more money. This one was perfect for home system

It worked well until the resistance mechanism broke less than a year. It took them 2 months to repair the issue because the tech kept skipping scheduled appointments.
The repair failed after 60 days but iFit only will warranty the work for 30 days.
Now I must pay out of pocket and hope it won’t fail in another 30 days. My advice to you- Find a better company than iFit. This machine is not good for longer than a year.

Looking for an elliptical for at home fitness while the gym is closed this worked out great but setting it up was kind of hard to do and ifit making you think you have to sign up to unlock the elliptical was an issue.

The machine is awesome. Smooth movement and well built. Highly recommend the machine. The Best Buy delivery experience, however, was horrible. Was given a 7am to 1 pm window and delivery came after 6pm

Torture machine. Who likes to exercise? Not me but it’s the healthy thing to do. This elliptical is helping me to accomplish that goal. It’s a great machine that I can use everyday and it’s worth the price.

Easy ordering. Have had more success with Pro Cell equipment in the past. Purchased Pro Cell stationary bicycles that last 10+ years before they finally are replaced. Unfortunately this unit hasn’t lived up to those high quality expectations even with manufacturer’s recommended usage.
Frame is sturdy, but moving parts are not holding up from 30 minute a day usage. Equipment was delivered approximately 30 days ago. Not sure this elliptical machine lasts 6 months.

Unfortunately this elliptical is rarely on sale, more often it is "sold out"
But I'm incredibly happy that I managed to place an order, and after a couple of days I was able to do price match.
The machine is very quiet, heavy and not for the entry-level.
Free shipping is a great bonus

The Proform Carbon EL is a relatively cheap elliptical cross trainer. Yet despite the price, the machine offers many qualities that you might expect from a more expensive elliptical. Over all very good elliptical.

Price is awesome. Putting it together the day before Thanksgiving so I can enjoy my 5 days off of work working out just to notice that one of the arms was missing bearings. 7 to 10 days projected to receive missing parts from ProForm. Bummer.

It was very heavy when it arrived in the box which was a good thing. Easy for my husband and I to assemble. The only thing I wish it had with the iFit capabilities was an incline that was automatically adjusted not just the resistance.

This is a great deal for this machine. It's mainly made of solid steel that won't break on you while using it. It's the type of machine you find when you go to the gym.

It started to squeak after less than a year of moderate use. Aside from that it is ok.
