Weslo Airwalker

First of all it wasn't that hard to asemble. It took about 2 1/2 hours. There was some screws that would not go in so my husband had to improvise. It is heavy and I am not able to fold it for storage so it'll have to stay in my living room. But overall it is a good exercise machine. I could feel the burn right away. It is worth the price I paid for.

The Air Walker provides a good workout, especially for someone with knee, hip and back problems like me. It is easier on my joints than walking by a long shot. It was not hard to put together but it was missing a locknut and the pulse meter does not work, so I will have to send to the company for a replacement for the pulse meter. Also, the hand lever position is a little far back for my comfort, but even so, it was an excellent product for the money and I am well pleased with my purchase.

I recently purchased this product. It needed a lot of assembly and took about two hours to complete. Some of the drilled holes didn't line up properly so we needed to redrill them. Once together, when I attempted to use the air walker, I discovered that for me, the handlebars are placed in an awkward position and make it extremely uncomfortable to use. In spite of the difficulty with the handlebars, I found a way to get around this and find the walker itself is easy to use. I had no difficulty at all getting it moving at a good clip. Best part, for me, is that there is absolutely no stress on my knees which are full of arthritis. I do like the ability to fold it and get it out of the middle of the room though. Will I use it, yes, definitely. Would I recommend it to others, probably not. If I had it to do over, I would have invested more money in a better unit.

I have had the Airwalker since March 3rd... I am 5'4" so my shoulders do get a little sore after 20 min or so..the handles seem "high" and would be great if i was 5 inches taller.. i rotate and do other things with my arms and go back and forth to the handle and its fine. I had help putting it together.. took longer than i thought it was going to , had to have power drill. After 20 min or so you can smell it getting warm. The metal does get pretty warm to the touch, but not the handle that you actually hold on to. I use it about 30-35 min a day..The monitor is pretty much a joke, i didnt even put mine on. All it displays that i could tell was the heart rate... you have to track time with your own clock.. Not the end of the world. I would buy this again.. Beats having to leave the house everyday to go to the gym. Its good motivation to have it sitting in my living room all the time.

This overall is a goog product. It says you need two people to put together. Two is good but one person is capable as I did it myself. Make sure you have 2 adjustable wrenches one to hold the bolt and another to tighten the nut. Make sure you really tighten everything once its all put together. I haven't experienced any squeeking but it obviously makes a little noise no different than if you had a treadmill. The biggest thing I don't like are the handle bars they put you in an akward position I just lightly hang on to the front bar or nothing. I wouldn't even put them on, I may just take mine off. I took about 2 hours with one person and the directions were easy. I really like the work out for the price and the ability to beable to do it in all seasons and not have to pay to go to a gym is nice. It is heavy If you don't have a lot of space it may not be a good Idea. Even though it folds up its still wide and tall. You will sweat it really is a good workout and I just put my mp3 player on and began. The one thing I did notice is that towards the last 15 to 20 min. ( I did an o hour a day) is that my feet felt like they were falling asleep but I'm not exactly thin so this may be why also it may be due to the fact that you don't move them as you would in a traditional walk. I just hopped off for about 20 to 30 seconds got the feeling back and was good to go. The heart rate monitor isn't very reliable at all its really a wast of space I may indeed take that off as well. Really over all for what I wanted it for I love it. It is a good investment.
