Sunny Health & Fitness Magnetic Elliptical Trainer Machine with LCD Monitor and Heart Rate Monitoring - Stride Zone, SF-E3865

smooth slide feels the same quality as the gym. Great investment . solid equipment. Only thing that bothers me is it all times out if you have to get off for a few minutes. Still worthy buy.

Assembly was straightforward. As with all instructions for a fairly complicated machine, it took some time but went smoothly. The Stride works perfectly with a smooth action. The electronics will take a bit to learn all the functions but was able to get up and running right away. Overall an excellent elliptical machine.

Easy to use, works you out where you need it to.

Putting the Elliptical together was a bit of a project and the instructions, while trying very hard to be helpful, could not always provide all of the exact detail that some people may need. Generally speaking though the outline of the steps were very good to get the assembly done piece by piece. Full assembly took between 4-5 hours, and am very satisfied with the Elliptical. Only way to get a better one is to purchase something thats built to be used in a health club itself, and that means more weight, more complexity and more money. Excellent value for the price!

Overall experience thus far has been great. I'm glad this review has allowed me a nice block of time for use. Had to make a little adjustment after using for a week (there was some evident __quote__rubbing__quote__ going on) but since then, all is smooth. Love having it and working my way back __quote__up the ladder__quote__ of use

Easy to put together and has been a great addition to my collection of workout equipment. I love how it provides you with a whole body workout and really enjoy using this machine more than my other equipment. I would recommend it to anyone.

Absolutley love it. It look a while to put together but instructions were clear and straigtforward. It is stable and looks and feels like the professional grade ellipticals at the gym.

This elliptical is very sturdy. Almost as good as the ones in the gym. It was a little stressful putting it together but I got it done. One of the arms is offset so the cover wouldn't fit completely on. Other than that it's decent for the price.

I've been using this elliptical for the last two years or so. It's a good way to get a cardio workout when the weather doesn't allow getting outside, and it's a good compromise of functionality and space in my home. That said, since 2020 it's been out of commission twice: once due to welds that broke where the pedal meets the tube, and once because the steel tube broke entirely just above the pedal. I like the machine, but I'd like it to be a bit more durable for the price, and since I'm about twenty pounds below the weight limit I didn't anticipate having parts just break during regular use.

After spending a good chunk of the afternoon putting this together, it turns out that the left swing bar is loose to the point of distraction. I'm currently in contact with a Sunny rep who I believe is sending an extra washer, and we'll see if that makes it less loose. Hopefully it does, because the hex socket bolt is getting stripped due to the screwing & unscrewing. If this jerry-rig solution works, I'm more than happy to bump up my rating. Fingers crossed!!
