We purchased the Dual Cardio Trainer, because of the good reviews we saw on the machine.
Upon receiving the Elliptical, we found a set of instructions to put the machine together. They looked a bit intimidating, but as it turns out, they were actually quite simple to follow. It took about an hour and a half to 2 hours to complete the set up process, and to finally test it.
This Elliptical is pretty versatile, you can use it both as a standing elliptical, or a sitting cycle, and alternate during your work out. The LCD console features preset workout programs, a heart-rate monitor and customizable programs programs for users. The seat adjusts both vertically and horizontally to provide a comfortable sitting experience.
This machine is not bulky, it takes up about as much room as a stationary bike, it's light weight, and pretty portable. We've managed to drag it up stairs to put it in a different room, and move it around, all without any damage to the sturdy steel frame.
The only thing I did notice, was that when you do get on, you have to be a bit careful. If I place my foot on the side I'm standing, and carry my leg over to put it on the other side, the machine will tilt, which is a little scary, cause you think you might fall. What I do, is place my leg on the opposite peddal, and then place my other foot down. Easy, really, and being as it provides a smooth ride, this small downfall, has no negative impact on me.
If you're looking for a great excersize machine, at a great price, do yourself a favor, and look into this, if not purchase it. I highly recommend it.
