JFIT

I've had this for a couple of months now and love it! I have mobility problems with a hurting foot, a tricky knee, and CFS, and haven't been able to do my daily walking. I've gained weight because of it and not having any exercise is compounding existing problems. I have a glider but after 10-15 minutes my foot begins to hurt and I have to stop. I have pedaled upwards of 2 hours (light resistance) on it with hardly any discomfort in my foot. There is some assembly but it was no problem and I had together and was pedaling in 15 minutes. It is heavy, but that's no problem for moving it under the desk from where it sits nearby. It's been used at a slow 'cruiser' pace while I read, watch an episode of a show or movie, or search the web, and at a pace with resistance to bring out a sweat and leave me feeling like I've biked 15 miles up and down hills with wobbly legs afterwards (I love that feeling and miss it from my cycling days!). I get a really good workout with this little machine. I was taking a break every other day to avoid fatigue, but my legs are noticeably stronger even with the irregular use, something I notice most going up and down stairs. This, of course, is helping reduce knee twinges. My energy levels are slowly increasing as well. I am noticing that I don't have to take a break every other day as my body recovers. I am now able to do a little bit every day with no break days. 30 minutes - 1 hour building up to a mid resistance and then tapering back down, or 1-2 hours of cruiser pedaling, then 10 minutes on the glider to help give range of motion stretching for the hips. I have been feeling better, sleeping better, and though I have no scales to measure weight, I can feel that a little is gone. It does get squeaky on occasion, but a drip of the oil provided and it's back to a very low thrumming sound. The resistance dial has worked with no problems so far. I will update as needed for any issues or problems, and will report on how it holds up after more time has passed.

Initially I purchased this for myself because I wanted to exercise while working in order to lower my blood sugar. I received it a day or two earlier than the shipping stated it would arrive, which was great. I then assembled and placed under my desk. My boss walked in, pointed at it and said "I want one for everyone!" (small company, under 20 employees). Since then I have purchased 6. I only have three negative notes: 1 - One arrived missing a screw/washer and unfortunately Amazon can not just send the replacement part so I have to return the whole item. 2 - You will want to preemptively use a spray on lubricant on the track where the wheels roll. This eliminates a bit of a squeaking noise. And I'm glad it doesn't come pre-lubricated as it would make the small bit of assembly very awkward. 3- The info display is difficult to read when it's under the desk/un-lit/at an awkward angle. Also, you need to reset it each day to get a daily tally.. But I've found I don't really care how much I've done as what I'm really focused on is work. I will update with feedback from my employees, I expect we will have 8 people using them by the end. A few folks find it difficult to concentrate while using the equipment so they have passed on getting one - something to consider before you buy. I personally have found it's so great to use, medically my blood sugar is not just under control but my medication is being lowered because I don't need as much now that I'm burning energy constantly. I think it's a great piece of exercise equipment, I think it's so easy to use and the price makes it totally affordable.

I moved to an office with no great places to walk outside or inside and I was getting extremely run down so I ordered this under the desk JFIT elliptical, I wanted one I could stand on. A cheaper device a decade before and it was only good for banging your knees against the desk. My only purpose in getting the JFIT is to get my heart rate up, I wasn’t not looking for exercise, burning calories or pedaling my way through work for several hours. I brought it to the office, the set up was easy, and it works well. The downsides are when standing the elliptical can skip around but not by much, nonethless have a wall to brace against just in case. It’s a little noisy, as other people have mentioned, but acceptable. The range of leg motion when standing is limited but it does the one I asked which is move my heart rate up. I did try it under the desk and that works well too, the range of leg motion is slightly better. Pedaling backwards while seated is a little noisier. Overall, I am happy with my purchase.

I love this machine. I sit all day at work and wanted movement for my legs. It burns some calories and also keeps me from getting cold! It was easy to put together. It is totally silent. I sit next to someone and talk on the phone so that was very important. When it starts to make a little noise you just put a little of the included lubricant on the wheels. I do have an L shaped desk and I have this in the corner so I have plenty of room. My knees dont hit the desk using it, but I am pretty short (5'4"). I think you could make your chair shorter if you had that problem because then you would be pushing more out than up. I have had it for a week and I am so glad I bought it. Well worth the money!

Me gustó el tamaño y la forma, para usarla de pie se necesita algo alto para sostenerse o pegarla a la pared y utilizar ésta de apoyo. Para la función tipo biciy es necesario un tapete antiderrapante ya que por el movimiento ésta se desplaza. Pero ha resultado muy útil y conveniente. El tamaño no es pequeño y pesa 12 kilos así que moverla de un lado a otro ya implica ejercicio.

This is a solid under desk elliptical. This gives decent motion while seated to allow a user to get done activity for their legs when seated. Because it uses magnetic tension, it is a very quite machine. The machine can also be used standing, but I have never used it while standing. I personally have limited mobility and this gives me a nice but if exercise. No, you will not likely get a good sweat using this device. But you will feel your muscles work Pros: Handle allows for easy movement Very quite Decent amount of tension Cons: Tension dial does not provide any indication of what the tendon level is currently set at. Pedal change from seated to standing is a bit cumbersome. A mat is needed underneath to grip the elliptical during use.

I just recently received my machine and have started using it. Easy to assemble. I am impressed at how sturdy it is for a mini elliptical. It is very easy to use and it’s quiet. I particularly like the fact that you can use it in either a standing or sitting position. So far, so good. Well done!

Bom produto, ótimo custo beneficio

La uso mientras trabajo, veo la TV o juego videojuegos y ni cuenta me doy cuando ya hice 30 minutos o 1 hora de ejercicio. Tip: si se usa sentado, usar un sujetador de vidrio/azulejo de ventosas en el piso, enfrente de la máquina, para que se quede siempre en su lugar. El único detalle es que la pila del medidor (LR44) venía descargada, la tuve que pedir. De allí en más todo excelente.
