I'm looking out to buy a good quality elliptical machine, and this one seems to be the right choice. If I buy this machine, I will bring it into my country (out of the States) as here their is only Life Fitness elliptical machines and they are...

I think you are making a wise choice. This is a good machine and replaced my 1st ProForm, which I used 8 years and it was a cheap model..$599. It still works too but is noisy. They make a great machine.

I have a year old Sole E85 treadmill and my Sole E35 elliptical is about 3 months old. I assembled the machines myself and I haven't had to deal with their customer service yet (knock on wood). Prior to buying both machines I've read reviews there were good and bad reviews of Sole, but the majority were positive.

An elliptical trainer is mainly for aerobic exercise. This machine will give you a full-body workout. I would have preferred to purchase a pilates machine instead of this one, though.

It is just as challenging. I highly recommend the Sole E35. In my opinion, it is just as good as gym quality machines.

This elliptical is also available from retailers and they can deliver it fully assembled if that's what you want. I did the assembly myself, and it was not so bad, although it did take about 3 hours.

No - this does not offer as much resistance as the gym models. You'll only notice if/when you are in decent shape (which I am on occasion) & it is the only thing I'd change about this elliptical. I still get a decent workout though & for the price, this machine has held up very well for over 4 years.

Good question cause I didn't care about the box either. Mine arrived with all the parts and is decent for the price and level I was needing. It isn't an industrial (heavy duty) one but is perfect for the beginner trying to get into shape or the person simply trying to maintain their level of performance. It makes a little noise which is to be expected. The adjustments are not going to be fine tuning like a professional machine's would but they are definitely good enough.

Solid elliptical. Comfort level will depend on your height. An individual with short legs or less than 5'10" in height may not like this machine. Strongly suggest that you try this machine before purchase. Personally, I have been very satisfied.

I Love this machine. Does it work? It depends if you use it consistently. I feel great when I use it. I typically do squats, ab twists and air boxing to get a total body workout. Last week I actually was on with my weights. I do not regret getting this machine but give it your best and I believe it will be good to your body :)

The Diamondback elliptical is extremely heavy and well balanced. It has rubber feet too. My husband is close to 200 lbs., and it doesn't move at all. I would think it would be just fine for you.

Sorry for the delay in reply. I don't think this is a piece of junk. I think for really tall people and hardcore atheletes, this is not what they are looking for. I think really great treadmills cost a LOT, but this is NOT the piece of squeaky, flimsy stuff I hear it is. What I ESPECIALLY like about it, is that to get anything this good, sturdy, quiet, durable, good company- you'd have to pay a lot more- at least twice as much. I think this is one of the better values. If you do want to USE a treadmill, and need one that is quiet and lasts long (Weslo is a good company that seems, even when there are shipping or boxing errors, to stand by their product) - this is really worthwhile. I can see how tall people and athletes would want or even need a bigger bang, regardless of price. This is a no-frills model- but it's great. I'm really glad I didn't go spend less, and get unmotorized or a different one, or spend twice as much. I have no complaints so far and now I've had it a bit of time at least and regular use. It's a really good one for regular but casual use and entry level. Beat the cheaper ones for quite and ease and durability, beats the pricier ones, in that it works well and lasts reasonably and is easy to go from box, to treadmilling, even for sissy weaklings like me. It's not "outstanding, perfect" but I think it's much better than hit or miss. (Plus Amazon has buyer protections if you get a lemon. EVERY mfg of everything, there is always one lemon for every few hundred great ones.) Not perfect, each one every time always, but it's far enough better than luck of draw that it's worth the recommendation.

it is good for running and walking it has different types of mode that will help you lose weight I have it almost 5 years now, I never had any problem plus very easy to set up , these machines are not commercial made which means ok for residential use , should lost a very long time for a family use. it is also very affordable compare to so many other machines out there.

It is pretty heavy, I cannot move it but my husband can. I am recovering from open heart surgery, so I haveen't been using it as an elliptical mode. It is a good sturdy machine.

I don't think you'll need to buy one. The manufacturer should be able to send one but you would have to pay for labor of not fixing yourself. Worst case, you could try googling the part for the elliptical model.

This is an excellent machine. We have not had our machine very long but my wife's friend has had one for several years and she uses it daily. That is why we bought this model. Good luck!

It goes as fast as you want it to go. I use this elliptical on days when I don't go to the gym. It's definitely not as sturdy as a gym quality machine so if that's what you are looking for I wouldn't recommend it. It does give a good workout though. It's a decent machine for the price.
