Wonderful for arthritic knees

I was dfiagnosed with Osteoarthritis of both knees 7 months ago. The onset was sudden, leaving me barrly able to walk, climb stairs, get out of a chair. I bought some books with exercises described, and went to physical therapy for three months. PT showed me tje same exercises that I'd started doing from the book. Plus a little bit with equipment, starting with a reclining cycle for ten minutes at the beginning of each session, to loosen the joints. After my PT course was finished, I could do 90% of the exercises at home. I saw this pedal exercisrr, and thought it might help me to both continue building quadriceps as well as loosening the joints. Ordered it, it arrived quickly. I love that it is fully assembled, and very sturdy. No bolts to loosen while in use. Very quiet operation. I use it sitting in my recliner (not reclined) while watching TV. I've had it almost three weeks, and my improvement has sped up as a result! I use it for 20-40 minutes at a time, two to three times a day. Try to do motning, midday, and evening. After a week it started to squeak a little. The foam that covers the pedal arms was a bit too long, and rubbed against both the pedals and the center gear. That was easily fixed...sharp case cutter used to trim about 1/3 inch off each end of both foam covers. Back to perfect silence. I have an ottoman that I place on the carpet in front of the pedaler, so it stays in place. The unit is relatively small and lightweight, and when not in use I set it on the pedals of !y elliptical, so it's out of thee way. I am able to walk much more easily now, with much less knee pain. I credit the pedaler for being an integral part of the exercise routine for my knees.

The best thing I have ever purchased

I bought this because I NEED exercise but I work literally 7 days a week and just don't have the time. I got tired of being out of shape and gaining weight. These pedals are well worth it! They work just as well as any $100 version and I use them all day long. I take them to work and bring them back home and use them there. They are easy enough to use even if you are a bit out of shape. They are light weight (so you can take them wherever), they are quiet and they give you a workout without killing you. I love this and would recommend it to absolutely anyone and everyone!

Perfect - try these adjustments for any issues!

I am 32 and doing physical therapy for tendinitis in my ankles. I made some minor adjustments that really made it perfect for me! I bought some WD-40 for the noise it made when cycling (which happens if you’re really going fast! And crank up the tension!). I squirted it inside the gears (the hole for the tension knob), and some on the joints to the pedals and where the pedal arms touch the machine. Also, I have wood floors, which makes the machine slip—I got some shelf liner (the rubber grippy kind that look like a big waffle or Swiss cheese), cut out a sheet to put under the machine, and it stayed in place perfectly! I’m very satisfied! I’m pretty sure every machine would have the exact same problems, but this one is already assembled, so you have none of the issues other machines might have - shaking and rickety structures along all the screws and joints.

Great For Stationary Exercise

Perfect exercise for the elderly who need a little stationary leg exercise. I purchased for my 90 year old mother and it has provided her with perfect exercise while watching the television. She liked it so much that I purchased one for my mother in law. This is used by physical therapist nurses for home visits but purchasing for the elderly is not covered by Medicare or Medicaid benefits. So it's a good purchase price.

Added resistance armband for little more exercise.

Excellent purchase for under my desk at work. I added a resistance armband for arm exercise also. Comes fully assembled, so complaints so far. No noise, stays in place. This will give me a little bit of exercise several times a day.

The Perfect Pedal Exerciser

This was purchased for my 89 year old father. Two years ago he fell and broke his femur. He went through surgery and 8 weeks of rehab. A year later he fell and broke his arm. No surgery for that injury but he was in a sling for 4 weeks. Again he went through 6 weeks of physical therapy. Now that physical therapy is over we wanted to find something that was safe that he could continue to get the exercise he needs in order to stay mobile. This is the perfect answer. He is able to do this on his own both using his feet as well as setting it on the kitchen table and use it for his arms. There are many different models to choose from. Many have bells and whistles that not only does he not need, but probably wouldn't be able to use. This model is so light weight that he can pick it up and move it so that he won't accidentally trip over it. I highly recommend this product. He is enjoying using it, and with winter on the way, getting outside to walk will not be an option..

Welcome to quarantine!

2020 is off to a rough start for nearly everyone, worldwide. To keep our workforce healthy & safe, our employer determined early in March that anyone who can telework, should telework. Thankfully, I am one of those who can and is teleworking full-time, until we're given the all clear to return to our office. That said, working at the office, I can generally get in 10k steps each day without much effort because our office building is a 3-story building, and my office space is located on the third floor -- so I take the stairs daily to get to and from my office and to get to and from meetings, all day long. But given that I now work from home, the steps to get to my dining room are minimal, and because all our meetings are now Skype/Zoom, I literally don't have to leave my seat. Which means I don't move much, which also means, I will most likely end up with quarantine-bod by the time we're asked to come back to the office. YIKES! Moreover, living in WA State where it rains, I can't just go out for a walk or a bike ride on my breaks, so I ordered this pedal exerciser to use under the dining table while I'm sitting staring at my computer. I've been doing 20-minute intervals throughout the day, and so far so good. I have noticed that the metal for each of the pedals where it attaches to the exerciser does get hot after 20-minutes, so I let it cool down and resume again every hour or so. It keeps track calories burned and the amount of rotations I've done, as well as your time. So in my opinion, as a means to keep moving and healthy, this is a great alternative for those of us who are working from home. (I plan to take it with me when I FINALLY get to return back to the office so I can keep moving!) Stay healthy and be well!

HOPE THIS CAN HELP YOU

THIS KIND OF FLOOR CYCLE WAS RECOMMENDED TO ME BY A FRIEND WHO DOES PT. IT REALLY WORKS KNEE AND HIPS, AND MAKE THEM STRONGER... I HAVE CHRONIC INFLAMATION AND PAIN, BUT THIS KEEPS ME MOVING. I CAN ALSO PUT IT ON THE TABLE AND WORK MY ARMS!

Great sturdy step stool for when the bed's too high.

I purchased this to assist me in climbing into bed after I added a way-too-thick foam mattress topper that suddenly made it too tall to get onto without taking a running/jumping/flying leap onto my stomach (I tried turning backwards and jumping up onto my rear, but my legs are too short, so... no go ;-P ). After having to claw at the topper to stay on, pulling it off the bed entirely on a couple of occasions, or going completely out of control and sliding onto the floor, it was time to admit that I needed some help. This gives just the right amount of height so I can daintily sit down on the bed rather than having to flail around in midair and risk broken bones. The moral of this story is... get a topper that's one, maybe two inches, not five. But if you insist on five inches, then get this nice sturdy step stool to go with it.

Great buy if you need this product.

Purchased for my mother and she said it works great. Bought the skis for the back legs and everything works as it is supposed to and the price was very reasonable, much more so than the local durable medical equipment stores. The construction appears to be of the same quality and wasn't some cheap knock off.
