User Reviews
Quality Design
I have purchased two ellipticals before, one from Amazon, and both developed issues within a matter of days or weeks of casual use.

Great Machine
Our elliptical arrived yesterday and my husband and I put it together in about 3 hours. It is a heavy duty machine and the display is easy to read.





A Great, Metaphor-Free Workout
When I started looking for an exercise machine for cardio, I wasn't wed to an elliptical machine but I was pretty sure I didn't want a treadmill. When I use a treadmill, I am treading: running and running but never getting anywhere, no matter how fast I run. Why would I purchase an expensive machine to do what I do for free in my nightmares?

Sole Fitness Eliptical E98 Model
It is commercial strength yet easy to use. Best of all I can roll out of bed in the morning and do my workout without the lights even being turned on. It took a little more time than expected when assembling the unit, about 9 hours. The instructions were fairly easy to follow.
