TRAKK Mini Elliptical Machine Reviews

4 Rating 100 Reviews
I'm super jazzed with this product so far! I only just got it and put it together today. I tried it out for a bit too. Not much noise at all. Range of motion is decent, will definitely get an okay workout. It doesn't give quite the same range as an elliptical, but for the money, not to mention the peace of mind knowing I'm not going to get Covid in a gym, it's very well worth it!!I'll update this review if anything goes wrong with it, but for now (and if I don't come back to update ever again), I'd say...don't hesitate!! Buy this cute little machine!

Had it for about a month and have had no issues. Rolls smoothly I use it on our vinyl floors and have had no issues with it. It is heavy to move around but that has not been an issue for me.

I bought this to use under my desk while working from home and it worked without issue for a number of weeks. (I even got some coworkers on board and they bought some!) I commonly used it while on phone video calls and it was so quiet, no one knew I was using it. But I wish I would have waited a few more weeks before recommending it.After about a month and a half (maybe two), the noise level steadily increased so as to be nearly unusable. It squeaks and creeks when at speeds half as fast as I would like to be moving (half as fast as I operated it at when I first got it). I tried applying silicone lubricant made for high temperatures and it helped reduce the noise for roughly 2 days before the noise returned. It commonly sits under my desk unused, as it annoys me to use even when I'm not on a call. I have to play music to drown it out.Don't buy this thing. It is not pleasant to use and it outright annoying a mere 3 months or so out from getting it.

So I waited almost a month to review this. I use it everyday at work. I've had tons of people ask about it. I've lost 4lbs and I don't really use it on a high resistance setting. I am able to talk on the phone all day without anyone noticing I'm out of breath. There is a slight noise after a few days of use but unless you work in a library no one will notice. It is very slight. I love this thing. It makes getting activity in easy and convenient.

Received this in the mail today. I put it together in about 10-15 minutes. I tried it for about 10 minutes already. Needless to say, I was sweating in no time and was able to burn off 100 calories in that 10 minutes. So far it is very sturdy and super quiet. I am still working on my balance and therefore, had to stand in front of my dresser in my bedroom to hold on for balance. Other than that, I intend to use this daily and will work on my balance to get some good cardio in at home in addition to my time at the gym. I've read many of the reviews, I am REALLY hoping that I do not experience the negative reported issues of the machine. Fingers crossed. I will update this review over time if anything happens. At some point, I will also try to add a video.

Great for keeping the blood pumping while working. I work at home so I don't exactly have an office to walk around in, so this is great to keep me "active" throughout the workday. My biggest qualms is that, while still being able to fit under a desk, it is definitely pretty large and heavy. Another thing to not is that you DEFINITELY need to make sure you have the space under your desk to use this. If you're like me, you'll have to pull it out from under your desk to use it without hitting your knees.Lastly, like most others here, I'm experiencing a very obnoxious squeaking coming from the right wheel. I can't tell exactly what is causing it as it doesn't squeak if I push it backwards instead of forwards. Planning to pick up some WD40, but I can definitely see how this would be really bad for a normal office with other people.

It arrived packaged well. It was easy to assemble. The instructions were easy to follow. The stride is short but I expected that with the compact size. The only problem I have with this little lean machine, is that the metal plate the wheels glide on, is not quite wide enough OR the left pedal is crooked. The left wheel does not ride on the plate when in full forward position. It tends to catch on the edge of the plate which I assume will cause wear to the parts in time. I have tried numerous time to re-align the metal plate but the screws seem to lock in place pretty tightly with no room to adjust. After reading more reviews, I see that this is not an uncommon problem.

So I used this in the standing position for about a week before I noticed terrible pain in both of my knees. I have not used it sitting down but now my father has it and he uses it almost every day for 20 or so minutes while seated in a chair and he hasn't complained about any kind of pain. I think for someone who wants to use this sitting it ought to be perfect but definitely do not use standing. The range of motion is horrible and I should have known immediately when I got on that it was going to end up hurting me.
