I guess I was expecting something with a higher range of motion? i see why this is for seniors, as an adult in mid life, it's not as much of a workout, but it's still more than sitting on the couch, and I have incredibly weak ankles, so I felt this in my ankles and the area right above my ankle on my shins (my problem area when walking), so this will have its benefits when it's too hot to walk outside. it was simple to set up, you flip the feet pedals, unscrew the one screw on top lay it on the bearings and screw back in. they included a screw driver which is nice. whole thing took 10 minutes tops to set up. comes with a remote, and it's simple to program. I'd highly recommend if you're in a situation where you can't get a treadmill or walking pad, and it's not sustainable to walk outside. it comes with a grippy pad so it won't slip if you have hard wood. tells you the amount of time you've been at it, calories burned, and steps you've taken. it had different programmable modes, and the machine moves for you a bit, just so it isn't a struggle to do, but it's absolutely useable without electricity, albeit a bit jerky. it came with the hardware you need for set up and isn't difficult to do, and it's a good little screwdriver, magnetized which is a nice touch
