Can the machine be moved from room to room as needed? How useful are the rollers at the front of the machine?

This machine is very large and heavy. We moved it, but it took a couple of people. I ended up giving it to my son who has more room for it.

Yes, for rooms on the same floor, the unit is fairly easy to move. It is heavy, but there are wheels on the front, so the back (light end) can be picked up and the unit pushed or pulled from room to room. This is a little more difficult on carpet. I recently moved my unit to the second floor, and that is definitely difficult as the unit is very solid and heavy. I'd recommend two strong individuals, or take it apart for that. Hope this helps.

The rollers a fine. Given the weight of the machine its tough on carpet. But with hard floors (tile or wood) we were able to move the machine around the room with ease.

you can move it and it is a bit heavy to move everyday just for a daily workout.. I have moved mine in strange places and it comes apart in a way that makes this possible.. I own two.. one kept in the US the other in Canada...

The rollers make it possible for one person to move the machine, but I would not want to do that on a regular basis. It is a large and heavy piece of equipment.

It moves very easily on my wood floors. I move it from a bedroom to the great room without a problem. It's mobility was a main factor in my purchase and I haven't been disappointed.

It moves pretty easily on a wood floor. It you have carpet you might want to contact the company to see if you can change out the "feet" for rollers.

It takes both my wife and myself to move the unit. We have it in a room that is carpeted, it may be easier to move on a hard wood floor. The unit is quite heavy and the wheels are very small. I hope this helps.

See other answers..Can move all the way right and left. I love the machine.

It has some very crude rollers, but they don't work very well. I typically just pick it up to move it from room to room.

Yes, we have moved it. It's bulky and takes two people. You wouldn't want to move it often.

Yes, there are wheels under the front bar. You simply stand behind the unit and lift it to approx. 45 degrees and the wheels will touch the floor and you are ready to go. You will be managing the entire weight of the machine while moving it. I found the moving process very adaquate.

Probably not. There are rubber feet on the machine. If it does move, a sheet of the non slip drawer liner works

This machine is actually pretty compact unlike the older elliptical machines were.... it also has wheels on the back for ease of movement. It really wouldn't be hard to move it .

Hmmm....not that I can easily tell. It comes completely preassembled. It only sits about an inch off the floor. It is very easy to move it to dust/vacuum under it. The rollers are not visible at all; they are recessed in the bottom of the unit.

Angles aren't a problem at all because the Roomba can follow walls and the edges of furniture. While it does have some degree of logic, it pretty much just bounces off every surface in every direction until it gets the job done. I have a small apartment with too much furniture and it rarely has issues. Once in a while, I'll find it stranded and out of charge at the far end of the apartment but that's most likely because I don't have a lighthouse for it to find its way home reliably. Aside from that, I'd say it works well in any space as long as there aren't things on the floor that can get wrapped around the rollers. It is one of the best purchases I have ever made and I will absolutely buy another one when Roombie croaks.

Well....I didn't remove anything from the machine when ever I went through a room door. Since it's bottom heavy when locked in the upright position (bc of the motor), I just zig zagged the machine on through the door, rocking it slightly from one side to the other...and no problem. Hope this helps

This is a very big machine.. not sure you want to fold it and move it around for every use

It rolls okay on wooden floor or carpet, but it is a workout in itself. One has to lift the rear of the unit to move it and it is heavy and bulky, but it does move. Moving it each time you use it could get old quickly. I leave it in one spot and only move for cleaning underneath.

When ours was assembled it rolled on the rollers/wheels very easily. We have it on a wood floor and can move it no problem.

The wheels do move at the front but you would need to be careful as to not scratch your floors. It is a very light high chair and is easy to pick up though.
