While the product was easy to assemble and works smoothly, it is hard to keep the product stable. It keeps walking away and will not stay in place. Also I thought there would be more resistance. With the resistance dial tightened as far as possible, there was not in my opinion enough resistance for a good workout.
My wife uses it after knee replacement to get joint movement. Is pleased with the size, motion and simplicity of the machine. It would not work as an exercise bike to offer a lot of resistance.
I have been using this everyday for several weeks. It's a great way to exercise my legs without putting strain on my back. It is very convenient to be able to watch TV or read a book, etc, while getting some exercise and movement.
My son bought this for me for Christmas at my request. I just started using it as I had to get a proper chair, a straight back metal chair & then something for the floor as it slips. I got a bath mat to prevent slipping. Overall, I am happy with it.
This small exerciser does exactly what it is advertised to do. It was easy to assemble, and is very portable. I would pay a little bit extra to have a backlit timer and a couple of lines on the resistance knob to make it easier to gauge the resistance.
