I thought this would be a great birthday gift for my hubby and ordered it 2 weeks prior. When the bike arrived, it was clear that the seller had shipped out an item that they had not inspected prior to shipping as you could see it was broken as soon as the box was opned. I emailed Foot Smart and let them know it was damaged and that I needed it replaced within a week as it was to be a gift and needed by a set date. Someone emailed me back and said a replacement had been shipped and they would arrange to have the damaged item picked up. 4 Days later I got a phone call informing me that Fedx would pick the damaged item up tomorrow, but with no information on delivery for the replacement. I called them back and was told that the replacement item had not shipped as I was told and was not ordered until 3 days later. Its on back order for at least 2 more weeks! NO ONE FROM FOOT SMART BOTHERED TO CALL ME AND LET ME KNOW! They knew they shipped out an item that should not have shipped and that this was pure carelessness on their part and that the replacement item was neeed ASAP, yet did not have the courtsey or good customer service to call me and let me know of a delay and offer a refund!! They also told me I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT 5 BIZ DAYS for them to refund my money!!! WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE OF ANY COMPANY ON AMAZON! BEWARE, DO NOT BUY FROM FOOT SMART!!

I bought this bike a couple months ago while almost 6 months pregnant and have been using it practically everyday since. I wanted to start an exercise routine that would get my heart rate up, tone up my legs, but was also easy on the back. I am still on one of the lower tension settings and have been able to work up a sweat and feel a good muscle pain afterwards, and I am excited that I still have a lot more tension to work with. It took nothing at all to put together, my husband had it together in about 30 minutes and I started using it immediately. The main reason I bought this particular bike was the folding-up feature, that is my favorite part! And as soon as I am done, I can fold it up and stick it in the corner of my bedroom..completely out of the way. Even after the baby is born, I plan on using this bike as my main exercise routine. I feel it gives me the same workout I was used to with doing step aerobics, as long as you add your own floor exercises with it. And how great to be able to watch tv or listen to music all while exercising to really keep you going!

I bought this because of the rave reviews by other users. But I used this only for one week. I hate it. The seats are small which is OK, but its so hard, my bottom and back hurts. There is no custom cushion also, that I can buy. I suggest you go for something with comfortable seats.

Great deal. Easy to assemble. You can watch movies, read, eat ice cream, or devour a bag of chips while cycling and attempting to burn calories at the same time!
My only qualms (costing a star) with the product are:
1. The back rest has started to make a strange creaking sound with every pedal. WD40 is not correcting it. Maybe it’s the ice cream and chips…
2. The hardest resistance setting doesn’t feel like that much resistance. It does if you cycle at a high intensity for a while, but it’s not the same as the really challenging settings I’ve experienced on older exercise bikes.
The above are not deal-breakers since I don’t anticipate quitting the ice cream a chips any time soon, and I can’t go full-speed on the bike while stuffing my face.
