Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-11-29 Summary: Does the job ... Great product which does the job with everything you need. Quiet and stable, the elliptical has an even and smooth motion. There are many levels to choose from and an array of programs. My only gripe is that it's really hard even on the 3rd or 4th level. I may be out of shape but the machine is quite tight. I would recommend it for someone looking for a solid workout. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-25 Summary: Excellent value for the price ... Performance: We bought this model 3 weeks ago, after researching elliptical trainers on Consumer Reports as well as in stores. The Schwinn took about 3 hours for my wife and I to setup (2 people are definitely recommended), and we have both been using it about 4 times a week for an hour each. So far, its smooth and relatively noiseless (we have it on the recommended Ironman mat). The display is a bit difficult to see, but its not an issue if the area is reasonably well lit. Shipping & delivery: The package arrived ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-26 Summary: Elliptical ... I thought this product was wonderful for the price. It did take a long time to put together, but with two people it was fine. I do have the problem that others have stated with the heart rate sensor, but as long as I hold them for a good 30 seconds I get an acurate reading. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-14 Summary: Necessity to anyone using an eliptical bike ... This is a no brainier item, the mat is a necessity to guard both the floor and your expensive equipment. The mat arrived in a large over stuffed box, unwrapped easily and after deciding where to place the Sole E35 we had purchased as well, the mat was laid down and the assembly was made on top of the mat - a little forethought to avoid hurting ourselves and the equipment. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-12 Summary: Treadmill Mat Review ... I own a Nordic Trac treadmill and have been using this product under it for several months now without any problems. The only drawback in my opinion is that it could be a little thicker which would add greater longevity to the mat before it eventually wears out. All in all good product, well worth the purchase!!!! ...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-02-08 Summary: OK but... ... Great idea, unfortunately my treadmill has a curve at the top so that the book holder does not sit flush. I also had to put a piece of stryofoam at the back of some books (thin books)to keep the pages from turning while I am reading. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-04-17 Summary: good for what it is ... I use it on my elliptical trainer. It works for holding items such as the remote or papers and magazines but there is one glitch I hadn't thought of. Because of the way it is designed you can't turn pages of books without having to pick the whole book up out of the rack first then repositioning the book back in. I guess this would happen with any reading rack designed for exercise machines. The other problem that I hadn't anticipated is that the rack covers my whole console so I can't adjust any settings or look to ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-09-11 Summary: Love the elliptical but the shipping was quite the ordeal ... I'm loving my Schwinn 431 Elliptical Trainer and using it almost every day. The shipping was a nightmare though since about 2 1/2 weeks after the time I was told it would arrive, a Bow Flex arrived instead. Then it was a major hassle trying to reach the right people in Amazon to get the problem resolved since the shipping company claimed it was Amazon's fault. Once I reached the right folks, they started a new shipment. In the meantime, the shipping company called and told me they found my elliptical and said it was ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-01 Summary: Ideal Home Machine! ... My husband and I were looking for an inexpensive elliptical machine so we could both work out without spending tons of money on a gym membership we wouldn't use. After going to different stores and trying all their machines, we settled on this one. Assembly:It took us a leisurely 3 hrs, with breaks and watching a football game, to assemble this machine. Everything was clearly labeled and the provided tools were adequate. Directions were clear and logical, parts clearly labeled and wonderfully packaged. We had to take ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-28 Summary: Wonderful and stable piece of equiptment ... I read probably 100 reviews before purchasing an elliptical machine. I went to a variety of stores to try out various models and manufacturers. I finally decided on this model based solely on reviews and the price. I quickly learned that if you bought too cheap of a model the quality really suffered. On the other hand, it was also easy to over pay. This is a great easy to use piece of equipment. It did take me several hours to put together by myself, but it was well worth it. When I first started using the machine ...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-13 Summary: Rowing Machine ... I purchased this to protect the carpet under my Kettler Outrigger Rower. Perfect size, extends just a few inches beyond the rower. Cleans up easily with a damp cloth or paper towel. I really appreciate that it consistently stays in one place, there has been no movement during rowing. While this mat will protect a carpet from dirt, etc. it is too thin to prevent carpet indentations from the rower, that would require a much thicker mat. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-12-16 Summary: Good under a stationary bike ... I purchased a Schwinn 113 bike and needed a mat under the bike. This mat fits perfectly under this bike (about 4 inches extra on each side of the bike). I am not an expert on the material so I can't tell how long will it last but it is good enough for now in protecting the floor. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2007-07-18 Summary: Solid and classic ... I might come back and edit this review when I've had the elliptical for more time, but as of right now I'd like to share my initial impressions. I spent a whole day researching ellipticals and trying them out at various stores and ended up with this one. Compared to the ones I use at the gym, most of the ones I tried seemed flimsy. If the whole thing shakes as I get on it, I don't feel confident that its going to survive a workout every day. The 1400 was the first one I tried that even felt comparable, with its heavy ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-02-27 Summary: Worth every penny! ... I received this product in record time. The machine had to be assembled but with the help of one other person, we had it completely assembled in less than two hours. Directions were very helpful and easy to follow. The elliptical trainer is very well made. The metal used on this machine is of very good quality. The instructions for using the machine, changing stride length (17 and 21), and use of the pre-programmed exercise routines are well written and easy to follow. I would recommend this machine to anyone interesed ...more
