Love our new M8. It was easy to set up... took me maybe 2 - 3 hours by myself to unpack and put together. Everything arrived in great shape. My family and I love using the M8. We get a great HIIT workout in just about everyday. Machine is very sturdy and we love the JRNY app that we subscribed to as well. Finally, there are 4 of us and we all have our unique profile with the M8 JRNY app so we can track our progress, etc. Very happy that I decided to purchase this product and we are rounding out the rest of our home gym with Bowflex products. #sweepstakes
