I bought this elliptical about 3 years ago and its still going strong. Don’t have any problems with it. The only complaint I have is that it took me 4 hours to put it together. Hence the 4 stars. This is a good elliptical for the money.

I’ll update the post from time to time. Right now I got this Sears Model 285420 free from A Freecycler. That is a local organization where people offer stuff free to others. The protective film cover was still on it..yet it was fully assembled. What a deal!!!
It is solid..and smooth…and I feel the burn (in my outer thighs) in under one minute with high resistance.
I got a stand-alone fan so I probably won’t be using the built in one which tend to use up the 4 d cell batteries.
I’m not sure if it turns itself off (some users report problems)
…so I just pull out the batteries drawer.
They say in twenty minutes you can get the equivalent workout of 45 minutes walking. Sweet.
Works great for me. I’, 5.6″ and 175 or less. (Maybe a lot less if I use this).
While I like my Bowflex…it really only does upper body…for me.
I have the foot extension and that is clunky. You can try to do cardio on a bowflex..but I like the idea of a separate cardio-machine.
I am happy thus far. Only noticed a smidgeon of rust on some seams when I turn the unit over. I will paint these spots. Will update later. For now five stars.

Well, I guess I’m in the minority here. I would say that for the price I paid ($350 with tax and delivery), I got a good two years out of this machine (and lost over 50 pounds) before it fell apart on me. Admittedly, I thought I’d get more time than this, and my original search on the internet was to find repair for the machine. Based on the reviews of others, I’d say that I am now looking to replace it rather than repair it. But… it was a good run.

I purchased this unit 18 months ago. Within 3 months the resistance did not work. They sent me a new motor… 3 months later, no resistance. Then they sent me a new console…3 months later, no resistance. They sent me another new console, which I did have to pay for…did not fix the problem at all. I finally give up!!! Called them and they refused to help me. Customer service just repeated over and over, “You are no longer under warrantee.” I told them I wanted to return the console, because that apparently wasn’t the problem. They said I could return it, but I would have to pay a restocking fee, even though they advised me which part to replace!!! Poor customer service and poor quality products.

A friend of mine bought this model for me from her neighbor for a hundred bucks – the neighbor had it sitting around unused for 2 years. This piece of equipment seemed to be a step up from the eliptical machine I had previously (200 dollar no frills orbitrek I had for 4+ years until the foot pedal bent at an awkward angle and a handle bar broke completely off). My first time on this machine was nice – smooth, quiet, natural range of leg motion, and I like huge foot petals. I was a bit disappointed by the lack of arm/upper body range of motion though. The next couple times seemed to loosen something because it squeaks and squawks and there is a suspicious “thunk” sound coming from one of the foot pedals. I’m not huge (150 lbs) and I’m not aggressive on this machine, so I’m inclined to think this elliptical trainer is not meant for everyday use or to only be used by folks under 100 lbs. I’m optimistic that a few turns of a couple screws will silence the squeaks, but considering what I’ve read about this machine here…..
Update – August 19th 2007: It’s a bit frightening how much this machine has deteriorated over the past few months. Luckily I can still use it, but the console won’t shut off (I have to remove the batteries after each use), the machine still squeaks regardless of tightening/loosening bolts, and the entire machine wobbles. My workout will not progress due to the fact that I’m afraid of breaking the dang thing. I wish I could reduce the # of stars I gave it.
