what is the stride length for this elliptical?

I never measured it, but i am 5'2" and if it was an inch shorter in stride it would be too short for me

Hi! This is the 2nd elliptical I have purchased. The 1st one was left in the DC area with my sister when I moved to NV because she begged me to keep it, but I'm so sorry I can't remember who the manufacturer was. I wouldn't recommend this one I purchased, it just doesn't work well, and I'm just over 5 feet tall and it barely works for me at all. If it wasn't so much to ship back, I would have returned. The ONLY positive is that it's cute and pink, that's it. I hope this helps :)

This is what I've noticed about the pedometer with various machines - 30 minutes on the treadmill, 2 miles ... registers about 2200 steps, registers all 30 minutes as aerobic 30 minutes on the elliptical, miles ... registers about 2000 steps, registers all 30 minutes as aerobic 30 minutes on the recumbent bike ... no steps registered (or minimal, less than 20) 30 minutes walking outside (with stroller) ... 2 miles, about 2000 steps, registers less then 30 minutes aerobic (maybe I'm having to stop sometimes for the kids or to chat with a neighbor) I think the longer stride and less impact of the elliptical cause less steps to be registered, but I like that it still registers the consistent time as aerobic. I've found this the case with almost all pedometers (register more steps on the treadmill then the elliptical even though the elliptical says a greater distance has been traveled). JenB

There is no setting or otherwise mechanical adjustment for the stride adjustment. You simply vary the effort you put into the stride, i.e., you can go short or long. I would have liked to keep mine but there was some part that was bad (inside the locked gear housing). The Schwinn Company wanted me to become a mechanic and start taking the thing apart while on the phone with them to "troubleshoot" and fix the problem. My time is too valuable for that. Thank goodness for Amazon's return policy which allowed me to return it and get all of my money back.

The 320 was just an example. If you are shorter, your step length will be as well. Place a marker and then walk 10 steps from there with your normal stride. Mark again. Now measure the length. Calculate the stride length by dividing the total distance by 10. Yes it was very confusing to set up, to say the least. Hope this helps.

I don't use an elliptical but I think it should. You can email withings and they can have a better answer

It can be set anywhere between Stride length: 12" to 48" (in increments of 1'') /30 to 120 cm (in increments of 1 cm) So yes it will do 23" stride

No idea. My wife is 5'10 and 5'11. Neither of US has had a problem with the stride. It is not adjustable or anything, but I have never felt the strike was unduly short for me (I had been concerned about it when I read the reviews). The shoe size isn't going to be a problem, I can say that much.

Yes, in inches or centimeters, and yes it will give miles based on the stride you set. My only complaint is I wish the display numerals were larger.

I have mine in the basement too. From the ground it's less than 11 inches. The step up height is very low for this elliptical.

Mine works on the elliptical but not on a recumbant bike (i.e. it doesn't count any steps at all), likely due to the position of the seat relative to the legs and feet.

Hi Rebecca! I purchased the Schwinn Elliptical 431 and I am just 4'11" tall and found that this trainer is perfect for me. I cannot use most of the elliptical trainers at my club because of their long stride. This is a perfect fit for me. I grab the center part of the handlebars rather than the ends (though I am able to do both) and have found it to be quite comfortable. The stride is perfect for the petite person! This trainer would not be the best for a really tall person. My husband is 5'11" and finds the stride and handle bars to be terrific. Lee

I only 5'2", so can't speak for my experience. However, my room mate is 6'3" and uses it as a cycle sometimes. He doesn't seem to have any problems. I think the stride length would probably be an issue if you wanted to use it as an elliptical.

You call Sole. We had our elliptical break down (motorized ramp stopped working) and they sent us parts (covered) and referred us to an assembly specialist for labor (we were out of the labor warranty at the time). After receiving replacement parts for everything related to the motor and spending $200 on assembly/disassembly and the issue was still not resolved, Sole RMA'd our 4-year old elliptical and sent us a brand new 2013 model for free. Fantastic service.

It tracks movement more so than steps so I believe it should work on an elliptical machine. I have not tried it though.

Its very short, maybe like a foot and a quarter long. I have to use another extension cord to pull my elliptical into the wall.

20 inches. Although the stride length cannot be changed, per say, you have enough foot pad to move from 18 to 22 inches.
