Elliptical Exercise Machine, Compact Elliptical with 12°/45° Incline

I'm very pleased with this elliptical. I'm 65 yo, 5'6"... NVM how much I weigh. My objectives were to find something I wouldn't hate to increase activity since I've had to give up my favorite sports and my hobbies are done sitting at a desk. I wanted something quiet, so not a treadmill. Stationary bikes didn't look comfortable and last thing I need is more time sitting on my a$$. I looked at ellipticals (and other machines) for a couple weeks, reading reviews, trying for a balance of features, quality, and price, and I'm so happy I chose an elliptical... THIS elliptical. It arrived well packaged, the small parts/screws etc were each in zip bags that were well labeled including the order/step of assembly. Included were a small flat wrench and two Allen wrenches with Phillips end. Instructions were pretty good, any confusion was more operator understanding. I suppose a video would have clarified a few things (maybe there is one, I didn't look) but compared to most assembly instructions these were surprisingly thorough. It went together fairly easily, about an hour... Although I'm convinced it would have been faster if husband would not have helped ha! It looks really nice and substantial, like something more expensive and not embarrassing without taking up huge amounts of area. I've put it in living room behind sitting area, so visitors end up seeing it but it's not an eyesore. Location was to encourage use. Added to my morning routine, no coffee until after elliptical (that's right, I bribe myself with coffee). The first day I tried it, it was a bit tricky getting the feet moving... like a cross between a bike and climbing stairs. But I never felt like the thing was going to fall over or that I would fall off. Now only a couple weeks in, and easy peasy. I already have an improvement in my time on machine and am very pleasantly surprised with improvement in my balance/strength. I'm going up and down the real stairs in our house much better. I like watching instructional videos on ytube/phone wearing earbuds, so I set my timer and watch during my little workout. The time flies by and two birds one stone. The area on machine holds my phone fine, note sure someone using a tablet etc would be able to fit in allocated slot. The pulse monitor and display work well, same bpm as my Fitbit so seems accurate. The monitors are located in the stationary handles, therefore readings are taken if you place your hands accordingly. I don't really use it though, since the display isn't lighted... probably the only con I have for the unit. But I work out early, and don't turn the lights on bright because I HAVEN'T HAD MY COFFEE YET ha! I get up first and it's important to me that using the unit is quiet and not going to wake husband or guests. This really fits the bill. A couple times I had early appointments so opted for later workout... Husband was watching TV, and I was working out right behind him and we could both hear the TV and talk (about how he should try the elliptical but he makes excuses). All told, I'm very happy with this machine. Sturdy, quiet, easy, effective, and reasonably priced.

I will start this by saying my machine is brand new so I cannot speak to durability over time. I do love this machine though, it is compact and dang it works the legs on even the lowest setting. I really love it as an indoor small space machine. If you are looking for something highly electronic with an incline, this isn't really for you, but it is very much a stepper and has resistance. I do think the handles are just a bit too wide like others have mentioned, but I can deal with that. I will also say I am also a short, lighter weight female and while it feels great for me, I don't know that it would work as efficiently for my taller, heavier husband. I have yet to hear the squeak mentioned in other reviews, but I just got it so I will definitely updated eventually if the squeak comes along.

I don't write reviews often but I just wanted to talk about my experience so far with this machine from assembly to usage incase anyone was thinking about buying this. TLDR; i recommend it lol Arrival-Received my package on time with no problems. Off the bat the box was huge and pretty heavy just to bring inside. If you're able to get help to carry/assemble it, I'd use the help. I did everything myself though so it's still doable alone. When you first unpack the machine it looks very intimidating & chaotic with plastic, tape, & cardboard everywhere. I just separated everything as neatly and organized as possible so it wasn't too bad. It comes with tools to assemble, so if you don't have any it'll still work but I used my own for a few things (see pic). Assembly-Took me a couple hours because I was doing other things at the time. The instructions were alittle confusing for me but I was able to find the assembly video on youtube and watched it at slow speed a couple times. I found the process much easier that way. In my box specifically one of the items was the wrong part (the right cover at the base of the neck was completely different from the left one, looks like it may have belonged to a different machine and didn't fit at all so I couldn't put that on at all). Also later down the road I accidently over tightened one of the screws to where it actually broke and there were no extras that came in the box so i couldn't secure the right arm completely (see pic). I basically needed to contact the seller for replacements. I was still able to put the whole thing together and use it, it just wasn't as secure as I'd like. Contact with seller-This was my first time ever contacting a seller regarding a replacement item so I was a bit nervous and wasn't sure what to do. Usually I'd just leave the problem unresolved and deal with it being put partially together but this time around I gave it a try since I purchased the warranty with the machine. I just followed the prompts on the Amazon site, contacted the seller via Amazon only, not through email or anything else and provided pictures/explained the situation thoroughly on the exact pieces needed(reference the manual if you don't know the name of the piece). Wanna (name of customer service rep that helped me) was a delight to work with. They were prompt with their responses and knew exactly what to ship out. I asked if I should return the wrong piece to them but they said not to worry about it and to save my money on shipping which was thoughtful so I tossed it lol. I received the replacements within 3 days which was super fast (honestly would've been even faster but time zone differences and my work schedule got in the way) but they provided a tracking number just incase. Everything came just as described and I received extra screws instead of the (1) that I needed so that was cool too. I took apart the machine in some areas in order to put the cover on (fits perfectly) and works just as before. That whole process was stress free and much appreciated. Usage-I've used the elliptical everyday since assembly on 06/05/2023 for 30mins/day and so far it's holding up quite nicely. It's fairly light once put together and easy to move with the front wheels. I have it stored near my fire place on carpet but when I'm ready to use it I just roll it in front of the tv with no problems and put it back when I'm done, super simple. I used to use the Bowflex Max Trainer at my parent's house which I liked but I recently moved to my own apartment (1st floor) so I wanted to find something similar at a lower price. After doing some research I decided on this one. I wanted one with more stepping motions rather then full leg swing scissor motion if that makes sense. From a noise stand point it's a night and day difference. You can't really hear anything with this machine which is perfect for an apartment (the BMT is pretty loud which I didn't care for). Movement wise it flows very smooth (some of the parts came lubricated so that was a plus). I don't use the features much on either machine but it does have a dial available incase you want to increase the resistance (I'm currently on 4 but it can dial all the way to 16 which is crazy lol). The screen lays a bit low/flat but i'm still able to put my phone down and watch videos if needed (the BMT screen lights up and glows in the dark, this machine does not but i prefer it this way). I'm a 5'11" female weighing around 215lbs which is over my recommended weight for my height but I'm working on it lol. At first it was alittle bit wobbly but once I received that missing cover piece it stabilized the machine a lot better around the neck. I use it on carpet and it stays in place just fine. There's more features but like I said, I barely use them. Overall I'm pleasantly surprised with how everything came out and would recommend this to anyone looking for a solid elliptical, best of luck to ya.

I read through all the reviews before purchasing and while I appreciate them, this wonderful product does not deserve the negative 'You get what you pay for' comment. I have used plenty of cheap equipment that does the trick, but this looks and feels like it was crafted with pride. If you put this together correctly, it is silent, sturdy, and easy to move. Based on the other reviews, I believed I was walking into an assembly that would rival my most complicated Ikea purchases. Honestly, it wasn't bad at all. Other than the wave washer placement in Step 3, the whole process is very straight forward. Why did I purchase this product? I received a horizontal promotion at work and I went from around 22,000 steps on a average a day to less than 5,000. I was standing still all day instead of moving around and my knees and legs ached more and more every day. Almost every review mention how much of a workout this machine gave and they were not lying. If I ever make it to the final setting I probably won't fit into pants anymore. The time I have in the morning is only 5-15 minutes and in just three weeks my legs feel so much better. I have a large phone (S22 Ultra) and the phone/tablet holder is in the perfect spot with plenty of room to spare. Earlier I mentioned how silent this machine is. I get up earlier than anyone in the house and no one hears me working out on this machine. It's so nice to start a quick workout and know no matter how hard you push yourself, you won't be waking anyone up. For those concerned with stride issues, I am 5'7". I really enjoy the extra large pedals because I have Flintstone/hobbit feet (take your pick) and for an extra stretch I will keep half of my foot off the pedal. This isn't needed, but there are days when it feels great. Based on this purchase, Yosuda will be the first place I look when seeking to further expand my home gym.

I cannot begin to say enough good things about the YOSUDA Pro Cardio Climber Elliptical Machine. I purchased it so that I could replace a few of my runs with a low-impact workout. This sturdy little machine gives a great cardio workout! After 5 months—on my back porch—it has held up great. Yes, I have a cover, but it is exposed to outdoor air and doesn’t seem to care. I had a good feeling when I unboxed it… good, solid metal. Not as bulky as what you’d see in a gym, but just as rugged. YOSUDA’s assembly video was a delight… went to together in just under an hour and no stress. The digital display is intuitive and easy to read even in low light. I just turned 210 miles on the machine and truly love my workouts on it. Hang a Bluetooth speaker on the provided hook, place my phone on the device rack, and step away. Yes, this is a “blend” of stair-stepping and elliptical, but one which gives you a great workout in less space. I am delighted at how good the workout is given the size of the machine. I feel bad having it outside but I really enjoy breathing fresh air while I workout… watch the trees, squirrels, and birds. Again, this machine is handling it fine—precisely because it is rugged. Even the pulse sensors are holding up great and remain accurate. If the weather gets too awful, it is no problem to just wheel it in through the back door… rolls easy and fits easily through a standard door. When my Pro Climber finally does succumb to the heat and humidity, I will simply purchase another one and keep on stepping … I am that impressed.

I recently purchased the YOSUDA Pro Cardio Climber Stepping Elliptical, and I’m absolutely thrilled with my decision! This machine has exceeded my expectations in every way. The build quality is incredibly sturdy, and it feels like it will last for years to come. It has a smooth, quiet operation, which is perfect for using it while watching TV or listening to music without any distractions. One of the standout features for me is the versatility of the machine. It combines the benefits of a stepper, elliptical, and climber all in one, giving me a full-body workout that targets multiple muscle groups. The adjustable resistance levels let me tailor the intensity of my workout, whether I’m looking for a light cardio session or a more intense workout. The digital display is easy to read, showing important stats like time, distance, speed, and calories burned. It helps me track my progress and stay motivated. I also appreciate how compact the design is, making it perfect for home use without taking up too much space. Overall, the YOSUDA Pro Cardio Climber Stepping Elliptical has been a game-changer for my fitness routine. It’s efficient, effective, and enjoyable to use. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a versatile, high-quality cardio machine!

I'm leaving my original review up for people to see. Recently the machine developed a squeak and squeal and I though it was the belt but it's not. The right foot pedal has a lot of play in it - it can be moved right to left, which it should not be able to do and which the other pedal arm cannot. The very first L bad that attaches to the rotator (and which is press fit) is very lose and causing the entire right pedal mechanism to move all over the place. I have since stopped using it because it's only a matter of time before this piece falls out entirely mid workout and causes injury. I have not yet heard back from Yosuda about this. Original Review: I'm writing this review mostly in response to other bad reviews. For the price this machine is stupendous. I suspect most of the bad reviews are do to it being incorrectly assembled and/or used. I am a big boy (300lbs) and this holds me well. It IS a bit unstable but that is also relative to how it's used. The machine's stability is related to the uses stability. Using a mat or small carpet under it helps with the stability. If you want to go crazy, attach the legs to longer boards to spread out the weight and momentum. The resistance is great. It goes from a very easy (though still challenging) amount of resistance to a crazy high level that still wears me out in only a few minutes.

The machine is nice and works well but the creaking noises it makes just days after purchasing drives me crazy. It's level and I tried proper lubricants to stop the problem but to no avail. I tried contacting the maker but never got a response so my next fitness purchase will be another brand.

This elliptical is not ideal for someone who has never worked out before! The Incline makes this a very challenging workout! But if you are ok with starting at level one for 2 to 5 minute bursts throughout the day as you build your strength, this elliptical is perfect. Because of how challenging it is, it will take you a long time to "outgrow" this elliptical. The small footprint of this machine also makes it ideal for small spaces. I love this and look forward to using it for years

Great price. Runs smoothly and quietly. Having the LCD monitor is a nice feature as well. Get ready for a good cardio and body workout!
