Schwinn 420 Elliptical Trainer

I love this machine. It went together very easity in about an hour. All the parts were there. It was very quiet for the first 2 weeks but now there is a little noise coming from one side. I partly think it is because one person that got on it a few times is over the weight limit. This is an awesome machine and is well worth the money. I have had it for about 2 months now and the noise does not affect the ability of the machine to work properly. I wish it had multiuser programs instead of just one.

I echo all the positive comments mentioned in these reviews, so no need to repeat. I am very impressed with the build quality and smoothness of operation. Please be aware the box is very heavy, and you'll need someone to assist you in moving it around (a WalMart associate helped bring it to my van). Even the individual pieces are quite heavy - a testament to the excellent construction. I was able to assemble it myself, but it would have been helpful to have an assistant. The instruction manual is poor, but you can eventually figure things out. One gripe I have is the rather simple console; for the price of this machine, it should be backlit. And also for the price, a water bottle should be included (the screws are provided along with the holes in the frame). If you call customer service, you'll find out there is indeed a water bottle for this machine (at a nominal price); they are sending me one free of charge (and I didn't even haggle).

I previously purchased a golds gym elliptical, not a good idea. I returned it and purchased this one after alot of research, I'm glad I did. It is a very high quality product. I use it daily and it works perfectly.

Good exercise machine. Glides smoothly with a nice length stride for long legs. No cup holder although it said it came with one - but it did come with hardware to install it. Easy to put together, did it myself in two hours. The electronic console is poor for the money. There is no backlight even though programming allows you to set the brightness. There is very little info in the book about programming and it is not a user friendly system at all. I would not order it from walmart again.

I like this machine. It's kinda large but any quality elliptical will be. It took a few hours to assemble. Some of the programming instructions are screwy but I'm figuring it out. I use it every day for a few minutes to warm up before aerobics or yoga. I try to use it each night, but I get home late & don't want to be too hyper coz I go to bed early so I can rise early. It is quiet & sturdy & gives a decent workout. Great value for the money. I've been using it a short while & can already feel the difference in my quads, which is good since I have weak knees & want to keep them strong.
