My husband and I love this elliptical. I a...m 62 years old and my husband is 59. So, we aren't great at technical challenges. However, it is so very simple to use! Just push a button to program, for example, a cardio workout or fat burning workout, and your set to go. It has a panel which displays your progress, speed, distance, etc. as your workout. It operates smoothly and quietly. At the end of your workout, it provides a summary of calories, distance, etc. The incline is power operated and not manual which is one reason we chose this elliptical. There are two sets of handles, stationary handles and handles which move backwards and forwards. On the moving handles are buttons which allow you to change the incline or level of exercise. On the stationary handle, you can place your hand to pick-up your heart rate. It also comes with a chest strap for measuring the heart rate, but we have not used this feature. There are other features which we have not used. It has an outlet to allow you to plug in your device for your own music - it has speakers. It also has a fan. It's really a fine machine. I researched elliptical trainers before our purchase. It is just as described and more. We really don't have anything bad to say about this product. I'm sure we will enjoy using it for years to come!

excellent quality built well quiet running. The f...an hits in the wrong place and cannot be adjusted for vertically challenged person 5'3". Cannot figure out how to use all the options. The footprint is smaller yet gives full stride. It is a little to heavy to move around so place it where you want it. Assembly guide is fair and it does take a full day even when you are a handy person with electrical background. Compared to other brands this one is far beyond any that we found in athletic stores, big box stores or discount havens. We are senior citizens and a grandson and it suits all our needs.
