I received the Stamina Compact - Green (my favorite color) for my 62nd birthday and I thoroughly enjoy this gift of love given to me by three children.
I love this thing! Small and compact. Gets me moving. I use it standing up for 30 min a day. Haven’t used it sitting down yet but if I can’t seem to get motivated for a workout I will at least do a sit down try. Recommend! Finally a piece of equipment I won’t use as a clothes rack.
I've had my E1000 for several years and ride it 50-80 miles/week. (Usually I stand at my computer while I ride, but I also put it under the table and ride during Zoom meetings.) It has allowed me to keep my weight down and stay in shape year round. Over the years, I've given it a few drops of oil maybe three times, and twice I've applied car wax to the plate twice. I replaced the wheels after 2-3 years and have just ordered another set. Both times, the customer service rep was outstanding. (Thank you, Trisha.) In order to keep the plate free of grit, I give it a quick wipe before my morning ride and cover it if I'm going to be away for a few days. Love, love, love this machine and highly recommend it and the company.
I'm loving this machine as I work, I feel like I'm actually moving and burning a few calories. Love the forward and backward capibility. And the screen. The only reason. I give it 4 is because it does squeak a bit since a couple days in. But overall would recommend highly!!!!
I'm using this as a secondary fitness tool, to supplement my rowing machine and my (very slow) runs. It fits in a corner of my bedroom and is perfect for a three or four minute workout whenever my Fitbit reminds me that I need to move. I was surprised that even a short workout can really work those quads and get that heart rate up!!
I can’t tell you how awesome the Strider is. I am getting my heart rate up at work and most of time I get 3k to 7k steps in. Most of the time it is very quiet and if it gets squeaky, I wipe down the wheels and it’s quiet once again.
I purchased this strider August 24, 2021. Just assembled it November 24, 2021. I have been using my 6 year old exercycle which I thought was great but this Stamina takes cycling exercise to the next level. Regret that I waited so long to set it up.
