Disappointed
I purchased this stepper for my small home gym I am in the process of putting together; I have no problem with the stepper, but it comes with a VCR tape not a DVD.

Junk
The first day I had this product, I used it for about 20 min. when I had to stop due to the smell of burning rubber.

Great little stepper
I live in a small home and I wanted something I could do while watching the news every day. It is easily stored out of sight and easy to set it up. The price is good.

Works very well.
I’ve been using this product for a little while now and I’m pregnant. It gives me the much needed workout without having to really strain myself.

Works OK…but not nearly as well as hoped
I ordered this to replace a similar version made by Sharper Image that I used to own, but this bears little resemblance other than the motion of stepping up and down.

Broke in six weeks
My wife and I used this stepper for about six weeks before it broke. The unit has a steel cable that controls tension–the cable snapped.

Too hard to use
I have never been able to adjust the tension on this product or maybe that’s the way it is supposed to be; however it takes all my weight just to push down on the pedal to get it…

This is a very small and won’t take up a lot of room. The tension in the steps is pretty good. The arm bands are not adjustable but are rather stiff. I haven’t had this device long enough to comment on the sturdiness. However, it seems to be well made. I think it was worth the price.

I have had this stepper for several years now. And i love it. You can really feel the burn in your legs and butt. the faster and harder you work it, the more tension you build up on the machine, and the better work out. It is very portable.put it in front of the TV, or pop a dvd in the player and start your work out…easy. I don’t use the stretch bands any more…i actually took them off and just pump my arms or use free weights for my upper body.

Good exercise choice
You get a great workout with this and can do it anytime. It is small enough you can put it in your living room and exercise while watching tv.
