It was a good deal for an entry level eliptical and I suppose you can't expect it to be a gym level quality. I'm glad I purchased it, but it's actually really loud when in use. The harmonic squeaking can't seem to be fixed but other than that not a bad product for the price.

I purchased this machine only to use it a couple of times a week as I also have a gym membership. I use it after my son goes to bed at night. It is in the room right next to him and the noice is not a problem. It is a good little machine for the price. To me it was not too bad to assemble. It gives me a great workout-I am drenched by the time I am through with my 30 minute workout. Of couse it is not gym quality, but a good entry level home elliptical trainer for the money

Great value for the $$$, but a dandy to assemble. Worth it though.

I have been extremely disappointed in the quality of the IronMan elliptical. It seems very unsteady. It is easy for the wheels of the foot pads to come off the track and the angle of the rotating hand grips are poorly positioned in relation to the angle of your body. Save your money -- DO NOT BUY this product!!

We recently purchased this machine and have been using it for a while now and we love it. The assembly was NOT difficult. Since, we are new to using the elliptical machine this does the job perfectly. Please keep in mind, not gym quality but for beginners it's worth it.

The machine is good for the price. It took a little bit of time to put together which is to be expected for a machine like this. It provides a good workout. It doesnt have the bells and whistles like the ones at the gym, but it is good for what it has. The only downside I see is that the handle bars are a little too short and positioned too far forward. Of course I do have short arms, but I feel like I have lean forward to use the handle bars (not the sensor pads...those are in a good position).

I can't keep my wife off the elliptical. We have it just off the living room with the television in full view. It is quiet enough to use during family televsion time and a very effective workout. I put it together in under an hour and well worth it.
