    I have used it for few days now. It’s a solid bike. Good, sturdy, decent metrics on screen for an exercise bike in this price range. Definitely no regrets and plan to use it for a long time. The reason I gave 4 stars is the seat. No matter what website you visit, you will always see the negative reviews about the seat but the rest of the bike is awesome. Seat is the most uncomfortable thing I’ve ever sat on. After first day of use my bottom was in pain for 2 days. Lol. Then I started looking online for a cushion or better seat. Until it’s delivered, I’ve folded a towel and made it really soft but still hurts because the seat is way too tiny and way too hard. Some stores have thousands of reviews on seat cushions for this bike alone. It’s a universal thing apparently. Schwinn should have replaced the seat by now, you’d think. But nope. Other than seat, you will definitely love the bike. I assembled it myself in about an hour. And it’s super easy. Most of it is pre assembled so you’ll have to put together some small pieces.

    Very happy with this bike! Great quality and very quiet. If you're looking for an affordable peloton alternative, this is it. It was easy to put together. The instructions were okay but I watched a video on youtube beforehand to get a better feel for it. The resistance knob is kind of iffy as well but you get used to it.

    I bought this during the past winter and it's a good quality bike for it's price. There are two things to consider: 1. Not the best option for short people, I'm 5' 3'' and the seat at its lowest is still slightly too high. 2. the seat was not the most comfortable, so we had to buy a cusion for it

    The bike works as expected and took about 1 hour for me to setup (alone). I love that it isn't tied down to any particular software and that it comes with a tablet/ phone holder. Also, the resistances are more than adequate- I'm an out of shape 33 y/o and about 30% resistance really did me in on a short ten mile exercise.

    I love this exercise bike. It is solidly built and simple to use. It provides a great and variable workout. The 1-yr subscription to JRNY app is a nice bonus. The install instructions were detailed enough to put it together in one evening with no mis-steps.

    I bought this to use the peloton app with. It had worked great. It had everything I needed to connect. The on-board display connects through Bluetooth to the app and the included heart rate monitor does as well. The charging port on the onboard control panel is a nice touch. There are a lot of adjustments in the bike to make a good fit for a variety of people. The pedals allow for bike shoes or use the straps. I have started to get a few noises from the belt after a few weeks of regular use. I sent an email to support about a week ago and still haven’t received a response. Thanks he noise comes and goes but want to make sure it is not a bad belt. I only took one star for that since the support has been slow.

    I was looking for a slightly less cycle bike than a Peleton and this was one of the best online review. I enjoy the bike and has lots of great adjustments so my whole family can use. My only issue is the seat was so hard like most cycle bikes had to buy a seat cushion cover to make it better to use.

    Started using the bike every other day since I now work remotely. This bike is VERY quiet. You can't hear the wheel spinning at all, which I love. I wish the tablet holder could be adjustable and raised higher. It's hard for people with short arms to get to the tablet controls. Feels awkward. This bike is also very solid, takes 2 people to carry it if you aren't strong enough, and rightfully so. When you start to push the speed on this bike that's where the extra weight and the sturdiness of this bike help. Lastly, it's hard to use this bike if you are shorter than 5'1. Even at the lowest seat setting (not even locked in) she couldn't peddle easily. I do wish they could make the seat height lower so shorter people can also use it.

    Having used spin bikes in various spin classes, this bike matches and excels to the typical/standard spin bike. I have been using my spin bike several time a week for months now and really enjoy it! It is a fantastic deal when you get it on sale on one of the bestbuy deals of the day. This is an excellent addition to your home gym, or as a single piece of workout equipment. Bike Assembly: The assembly was easier than expected and the instructions were clear. I assembled it alone in less than an hour. I purchased the Best Buy insignia exercise mat to protect my flooring from any possible scratches from moving the bike or sweat drips. Electric display: this bike has an electric display you can attach. One downside to the bike I received is the electric readout panel shows distance in km and has the option to change the readout to mi, I haven’t been able to make that change. The only button that works for the readout is connecting the Bluetooth for the HR monitor. Honestly I prefer connecting the electric display to my iPad. Through the JRNY app I get an accurate reading for my cadence, distance and the many fun and a variety of rides available. There is a port to connect an iPad, or other device to connect to the JRNY app. The JRNY app is free for a year (I’m planning to try out the peloton app for comparison soon). Saddle: There was a short break in period of a few rides for saddle comfort. The saddle is relatively comfortable right off the bat, not too soft not to firm. I have noticed that the stitching on the saddle is a little off but not enough to make a difference to me. Heart Rate Monitor: The heart rate monitor is a nice touch. I used to use my Apple Watch, but a few weeks into using the JRNY app I decided to use their Heart Rate Monitor. It connects through the app. Critiques: I am a little on the short side and have the bike set at the smallest settings. I would say riders 5’2” or taller would be the range.

    This bike is just about as quiet as you can get! It says it connects to peloton but even after doing the research I have been unable to get it to connect to the app. But the bike is comfortable and easy to adjust.

    I love about this machine how sturdy and good looking it its. However the seat is not as comfortable as other machines; I would like to see the company selling another attachment at least for such an expensive product to be more comfortable sitting. An elder person might find this annoying. Other than that is a great brand and product.

    Thus far we are pleased with the bike. Setup was straightforward with all required tools included. The bike and thus the box is heavy. Assembly took about an hour working at a casual pace and nothing was terribly difficult. Getting the JRNY app set up did take a little work mostly because the place to get theirs done was not obvious. Go to Schwinn exercise bike web site. App function is easy. The bike is very smooth and stable, provided you have it on a stable surface. It is easy to adjust to different people with a wide range. Money of us is 5’2” and the other is 6’2” and it accommodates us easily and comfortably.

    This is a great spin cycle. It is smooth riding and stable. I am 140lbs and my husband 250. We ordered online and were able to pickup curbside in a couple of days. Assembly seemed rather easy; however, we asked our cyclist son-in -law to assemble it.
