“I felt a bit unstable on it, the pedals are a bit narrow and it rises up quite high, when you step up on it, it throws you a bit off balance. I didn't find it that easy or comfortable to use. And it has no adjustment for tension. I would have preferred it not to go up and down quite so fast and to have actually required me to have to use more pressure. It had your feet so close together it made me a bit unsteady, for the very young would not be an issue but as you get older your balance isn't quite as good. I came close to falling off a few times, haha.....that would not have been good.”
“Easy assembly, and cords are a bonus. I ordered it primarily for the step feature. I'm a little short for the cords, so I simply criss crossed them, which shortened the length allowing for better tension. Worth the price and much more compact than a standard stepper. I'm 5'3â€, 106lbs so it is sturdy for my size.Edit: I reduced it by a star. After just a couple uses the display function with timer and step count stopped working, a new battery did not fix it. The hydrolyic system has started making noises after a few steps. It started out well, and might be good for occasional workouts, but not an everyday, long lasting item.”
“The media could not be loaded.
I purchased it due to not able to get to the gym however the cords for pulling are not strong may have to change cords to stronger. The stepper is pretty strong and sturdy for body weight but tight have not used yet but I will post pics and video when use so you can see yourself but I give it a 5star something is better than nothing however I have an old original stepper made out of metal without the cords which is very good but stay tune I will test this out, I wanted to add I now noticed suppose to count and monitor my steps etc don't work it just comes on but don't count”
“With COVID-19 I haven't been walking as much or as far as I habitually do, and I feel it with lack of lung power!I thought this was worth a try. WOW I love it, I can "walk" while the TV or music is on and get my steps in effortlessly, but feel the good effects of doing it.It is a lot better made than I thought it might be for the price, very sturdy, and I'm a tall and heavy guy.This pistons are powerful enough to give you a good workout, both cardio and legs. and you can set the incline for flat or hills.The counter shows how many steps I take so I know how many blocks I'm walking!Okay, this is helping me, as an older guy, to get back in shape, and I think it will last a long time.And all for the cost of a month at a gym.Highly recommended.”
“This stepper machine is a good way to get a little more active when indoors.The pistons seem a little stiff but warm up with use. It comes with some light clear oil, but I found it to be of little help. The cheap bungee cord pull handles are worthless unless you are 7 ft tall. I trashed them.Overall, for about $40 I found it to be worth it. Good for slow and fast paced stepping. It is nice to do when watching television. I would recommend leaning forward on something when using.”
