Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This exerciser is extremely well made. The main part is a solid casting and the cylinders appear to be equally heavy duty. Good up to 400 lbs. Made in USA is a plus. However...
First of all it has no rubber feet, kind of a cheap omission for a $400+ device (the price as of this writing). Because of this, it slides all over the (vinyl) floor and I fear it would scratch a hardwood floor. Xiser's answer? Send us $49 and we'll send you a non-slip mat and a carrying bag.
Next, the cylinders are not screwed down and only sit on little nubs on the frame. Each time you pick it up (by its handle) to move it the cylinders fall off the frame. Not impressive for a $400 machine. Some kind of thumb screws would have been more useful.
I could live with those short comings, but...the biggest drawback is the size. The width of the machine at the pedals is only 6 inches center-to-center, and only 10 inches total (from the outside edge of the left to the outside edge of the right). If you are a bit full-figured you will find it difficult to fit onto the pedals as you go up and down.
If the people who designed this actually used it (or tested it using real people) this could have been a killer machine. All they needed to do was add about 2 - 3 inches of extra width to it. As it is, I find it unusable and it going back.
