“The best eliptical for the price”

Before purchasing the Schwinn 430 elliptical, I researched, tried out and read many reviews. This machine is well constructed and built to last. Assembly took two hours but the instruction booklet was clear and concise. After assembly nothing was missing. I am 6 ft 7 inches tall and 230 lbs but this...

While my 9 year old niece can use this machine with ease, it is not as steady with an adult on it. Especially larger adults and let's face it, big people are most likely the ones looking for excercise equipment to help them lose weight, so I would recommend looking at an eliptical with a better stance...

I bought the Schwinn 430 three months ago. At the time I weight 209lbs. The machine was very easy to put together, but I am mechanically inclined. At first, I had a few squeaks, but I over tightened some bolts. The squeaks were gone after I fixed it. I could only do 15min on easy at first, now I am doing 90min on level three. I do this work out at least 4 times per week. The machine is holding strong. FYI, I used to have a Precor (one of the most expensive you can buy). I liked that machine, but had to sell it because my living arrangements changed. Now that I live in a house again, I purchased...

I was originally looking for a treadmill since I wore out my other one. The store did not have the treadmill that I wanted because it was discontinued. I started looking at other treadmills when the salesperson suggested that I considered buying an elliptical unit. I was hesitant at first but then he mentioned that if I ever needed hip of knee surgery, the docotr would most likely recommend an elliptical unit because of the low impact. I bought the Schwinn 430 and assembled it in about an hour. I have had it for about 2 months now and have really come to enjoy the workouts. I use the Schwinn 430...

I recently began a healthier lifestyle and was looking for an Elliptical. I am a young mother and began this journey at 234lbs. I had a hard time finding an Elliptical that was sturdy and could support my weight. I came across the Scwinn 430 series and hopped on it in the store. Immediately i felt safe, comfortable and stable. I purchased this product about 2 weeks ago and I do it 5-6 times a week for 25-45 min a day and I really get a great workout from it! I have lost 9lbs in two weeks using this machine. I highly recommend it for either someone who is heavier like or even at a healthy weight...

This is my second elliptical I have owned and I am very pleased with it. It's a mid priced elliptical that performs well and I use it on a daily basis. It's very stable and does not rock side to side like others less expensive models. It is also very quiet.
I used to love this machine. My husband and I work out often with it and after 1 year of use - it broke. Now, we are trying to figure out how to get it fixed. The resistance is not working so I'm not sure if it can be fixed. I'm not happy since it is only 1 year old.
I reviewed several models and went back to the one my friend had bought. The schwinn is very easy to put together. Make sure you take your time and tighten each nut or bolt. It is quiet and I'm 6-2 and weigh 205lbs and the machine is quiet with me on it. I clean the rear runners weekly and vaccume the basement weekly so it doesent collect dust. I did purchase the three year warranty so I'm golden and I will use this machine daily and will add another update in the coming months! Im 6-2 and the stride is perfect!
This is a great product for the money. It is smooth and sturdy. The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars is that you have to let go of the handle bars to put your hands on the pulse reader. Otherwise, it's great!
I'm usually silent on things like this but, i've had the worst experience with this machine. 2x, 2 different stores and 2 different machines and I couldn't complete the assembly because the bolts kept stripping. Bad tooling job on this product. Guess I'll keep shopping:)
This eliptical works great! It is not the bottom-priced nor the top-priced eliptical, yet it does a great job. Easy to assemble. Easy to use. I like how your programed personal info stays within the computer and you don't have to reset it even if unpluged. Yes, it would probably be nicer to have the next schwinn up so that you can have the option of battery powered instead of having to plug it in, but it works just fine. Easy to move.
