Under Desk Elliptical Machine, Electric Ellipse Leg Exerciser as Seen on Tv for Seniors with 12 Adjustable, Portable Quiet Elliptical Machine, Seated Pedal Exerciser with Remote Control

I bought this machine for myself and my 90-year-old mother. She has not been able to try it yet, but I have been enjoying it. It arrived in great shape and ready to use. I plugged it in and tried the first program. I can tell it will really improve circulation. I love the program, the way it increases and decreases speed and switches to backward pedaling. It's really fun to use! (It did take a bit of getting used to letting it do all of the work as my feet simply rested on the pedals, but I love it.) The machine is really quiet. I barely hear it when it is running. The buttons are responsive and easy to use, but the remote control makes changing settings, starting, and stopping really simple. I find the machine to be very light and easy to move so that I can take it wherever I want to set it up. I'm really excited about this machine and expect great things from it!

The Putnen Under Desk Elliptical Machine is very good. I read up on them and decided on this one and I am extremely happy with the machine. It comes all put together, the remote did need batteries and I needed an extension cord to plug it in which was no problem. The cord on the machine is not long at all. In fact, I would think most users would need to use an extension cord. The one thing I read is that the cord is at the top front of the machine which I felt was strange but causes no problems whatsoever. I simply sat down in my chair, put the machine by my feet, read the manual which is only a few pages long and was very easy to understand, ran it once or twice to test it out and that was it. You can use the remote for most functions or you can bend down slightly to power on and use the different functions on the machine itself. If I could do it properly anyone could do it. I am an older person with leg problems and bought it primarily for circulation. I cannot walk far at all before I need to stop. First time I used it I must have done 12 - 20 minute cycles and could have done more. I started out on level 1 and quickly went to level 6, I believe it has 10 or 12 levels. Of course, level 1 is very slow and goes faster with each level. Also I believe it has 2 or 3 cycles that are set on the machine, 20 minutes which is what it is set at when you get machine and 30 minutes which means it runs for that amount of time then shuts off and you just simply restart it again if you want to do another cycle. I could not believe how fast that 20 or 30 minutes went by. If I am going to be reading, watching TV, doing paperwork, etc for a few hours or more this machine is fabulous for all that and more. I read some comments about the noise level. I have super hearing and I could not hear any sound from it at all, not even a whisper of a sound. It is very stable and did not move a bit. It is not real small nor is it too big, just a nice size. It can be moved from room to room pretty easily, I would say you only need a little bit of muscle to pick it up and move to another room or closet to have it out of site. I must say though that I thought I would be moving it to the closet when not in use but want to tell you it truly is not a bad looking thing and because it is so easy to use, I see myself using it quite a bit, that I am just moving it to the side of my chair. As I said I read up on many of these machines before buying and the price for this was very good. One last thing I would like to add, it is so easy to use as the machine is doing all the work moving your legs for you because it is in the automatic mode. This is great for a lot of people who cannot for various reasons exert a lot of energy. There is a manual mode where you actually have to move your legs yourself to get the machine moving. I imagine this mode would be good for people who have no feet or leg problems. I believe most people buying this machine do not want to sit idle for so many hours and this machine is moving your feet and legs at all times getting that circulation moving which is so beneficial to your health. I would most definitely recommend this machine. I hope this review was helpful. You can always post a question if there is something else you need to know about this product.

I purchased this because I have joint problems in my knees. I have only had it for 4 days, but I have to say I really like it. It seems to make a difference in my knees. Easy to set up and easy to operate.

I took a few months to decide if any machine like this would be worth it and to do my research, and I’m happy to report that this machine is amazing! My legs feel so much better now while I’m working on my computer. It is also very quiet, so I don’t have to worry about phone call interference. Highly recommend!

I really like this elliptical. The only problem I have is it slides when I’m using it I have to keep bringing it back toward me.. may have to put something at the bottom to keep it from sliding. Not sure what yet.
