YOSUDA Pro Cardio Climber Stepping Elliptical Machine, 3-in-1 & Stair Stepper, Total Body Fitness Cross Trainer with Hyper-Quiet Magnetic Driving System, 16 Resistance

this machine is awesome for a cardio/leg workout. when it's all put together properly its very sturdy and easy to use. stride isn't terrible either. I am 5'1 and 135 lbs. and this will work wonderfully for me for a long time. It is easy to move if need be. the instructions were ok, and tools were good for what you need them for; also be aware that this machine has greasy parts and while your putting it together you will run across that so be prepared for a slight mess I wasn't lol. I do however, like the resistance that goes from 1 to 16 I use an elliptical at my job in their gym and it goes up to 20 and its electric and being that manual ones are always harder to get started this one is just wonderful for home use. all in all, not a bad buy even though it's very heavy for someone alone of with stairs would not recommend if you don't have help or have stairs it is quite heavy! I got it out of the box by using my foam workout pads to cushion the box and opened it up and turned it upside down and gently grabbed the cardboard and pulled it out very carefully!

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 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 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.

This is a quiet, easy to assemble elliptical. The stride is smooth and easy to use. What impresses me most is the simplicity of use without electric cords. I like that I turn a dial and go. Thank you for making fitness less stressful and affordable.
