Its good looking piece of equipment,small, easy to store even under the chair...But reason for me to buying it, was for health needs.With my poor circulation I have to use it for many times of the day,every day,for long period of time.
But I am not sure it will last long.
First of all it gets very hot from rotations,second (and I didn't figure out that before) its to light!
(Only 6 pounds)And being light,It moves along with rotation,actually its running away from you.You have to stop your exercises every couple rotation, and pull it back, or you have to nail it to the floor in the middle of the living room.
I live in Florida weather is wonderful,i will walk!
This -MINI CYCLE EXERCISE BIKE will not run away standing under the chair! By the way shipping arrangement very confusing!And to high!
Thank you

This is an excellent product, so far using it along with a change in diet, I have lost 3 kilograms (7.5 pounds). I would heartily reccomend this to anyone thinking of buying it, i can be lazy and watch TV while exercising, makes it much less of a chore.

The mini exerciser is great!!!!! I can look at tv and still exercise my legs and that helps with my arthritis.

I bought this to use at work since I sit at a desk all day. Although I am short, it still is an inch or two too high to use under my desk (my knees hit the desk) so I keep it by my window and use it during my breaks instead of going for coffee cake.

This item is listed as an Aerobic Exercise Bike. The item description when I purchased it and as of September 10th when I am writing this review states that this item is great for Cardio-Vascular fitness. This is not true.
I bought this for my son to work out with, but there is not enough resistance to provide any kind of decent exercise for a normal healthy adult. This product is probably good for someone who is in poor shape or has had a heart attack, but it is not as advertised.

I bought this product to continue to rehab an ACL reconstruction/meniscus repair on my my knee. Don't waste your money. I had to have my boyfriend put this together for me. It came with everything you needed but it was extremely hard to put two of the bolts in for me(a woman) to do. It required almost superhuman strength to screw the two nuts onto the bolts. My boyfriend even had a hard time doing it. It took almost 2 hours for him to do. Once we got it put together I tried it out and it is very wobbly and moves quite a bit on a tile floor, because the legs are uneven. I took a heavy beach towel and placed underneath it. I had to double up the towel 4 times under one of the legs to help keep it stable. It made it more stable but it still moves some and I have to keep moving it back to it's original position. After using for just a few minutes one of the straps on the pedals started to break. The straps are also not large enough to use while wearing shoes so you have to use thick socks so it won't hurt your feet. Also I have the tension knob adjusted as high as it will go and it STILL does not provide enough resistance. I put on 2 1/2 pound ankle weights and have to pedal backwards to get enough resistance. I could probably send it back for a refund because of the poor workmanship but it's not worth the hassle because I would have to disassemble it and pay the shipping. The only positive thing I have to say about this product is that it is the right height to use with a standard height kitchen chair(at least for me-I'm 5 ft) Don't waste your money on this product. The quality and workmanship of this product are very poor.I will just save up my money to buy a product that has better workmanship and is made of better materials.

I purchased the "Aerobic Pedal Exerciser-Mini-Cycle" to use while working at my desk. The idea was to enable movement and exercise because I spend so much time working at the computer. The tension is not steady so it is impossible to pedal smoothly. Even with the foot-stirrups, one must constantly adjust their feet on the pedals. And, because the pedal movements are so jerky, your feet come off the pedals. The angle and height of the pedals is not adjustable either, so it is difficult to get the machine into a workable position from a normal sized chair. I've only been able to use the thing while on a tall kitchen stool so obviously it's useless to me while I work 10-12 hours at day at a desk...

The item was promptly delivered earlier than I expected. The item is in good condition and operates good. so far I am very satisfy with this purchase. But the reliable of the product is not yet known. I bought this to help my father who is diabetic to get some exercising for his condition as his was unable to walk by himself.

Well built sturdy pedaller. Well packed and mailed right away. A little difficult to get my feet into straps secondary to limitations of arthritis but can manage it if set up so it doesn't "scoot" away from me.
