The cross-trainer comes in a box of dis-assembled peices. It also includes a well detailed, thick instruction booklet and a small booklet on the instructions to use when assembling. The bigger peices are very heavy and so I advise you not to try...

Review of Tunturi C20 Elliptical

Tunturi C30 elliptical. A great deal from Fitness superstore!!

Advantages: Great machine and FS has a great website.great products.cheap.good Customer Service and delivery!!
Disadvantages: nil

...I decided to purchase a Tunturi c30 elliptical cross trainer from Fitness-Superstore and this really is the king of crosstrainers so if you have the money go for it. I am 17 stone man, so I am by no means small. I have purchased a few home crosstrainer in the past and I tend to give them a real beasting as you would in a real gym but they simply fell apart. This machine is well built strong and can take 135kg or 23 stone and has survived me! lol, it has loads of programmes, heart monitor and is whisper quiet and I mean quiet!!. Tunturi are simple the best when it comes to cardio equipment so DO NOT waste your hard earned money on anything else, you will be dissapointed!! The machine speaks for it's self and I don't really need to say anymore about it. I have noticed a few comments below about delivery from this company...

Get Fit, Go Elliptical!

Advantages: Low impact cardiovascular workout
Disadvantages: Expensive

...In a bid to lose a few pounds after uni (too much alcohol & too many takeaways) I was looking for a good all round exercise machine, and elliptical trainers were recommended by some friends. "Why?" I enquired. "The answer is simple" came the reply, "they are a great cardiovascular work out and the pedals mimic the body's natural movements when running, so essentially you are running, but there is no impact - saving your joints and bones!" "Genius!" I replied. And so my quest to buy a machine began. After looking at a variety of makes and models, I decided upon the York 3100 Elliptical Trainer & Cycle. It looked the sturdiest, could handle the most maximum weight (16 stone - not that I was this large, but obviously the larger the maximum weight, the stronger the machine), was from a brand that I had heard of and trusted...

Review of York Elliptical Trainer & Cycle 3100

Like walking on the Moon!!!!

Advantages: Smooth, comfortable, challenging, lots of programmes, Robust!
Disadvantages: A bit expensive, but I still think worth it

...Elliptical trainers are better known as cross trainers and are now the main stay and most popular bits of kit in gyms all over the world. The main reason they are so popular is really because of their functionality. The elliptical trainer is beneficial for a number of different reasons 1) They are an intermediate between a running machine and a bike whilst having the same levels of exertion 2) They provide both an upper body and lower body cardiovascular (heart and lungs) workout. On harder settings they have an increased toning effect 3) They provide a low impact workout, being kinder to your joints than something like running 4) If you just use your legs (take hands off) they provide an excellent work-out for the core muscles because you need to hold yourself in a state on constant tension to keep yourself balanced 5...

Review of York X302 Diamond Elliptical Trainer

Cross country ski-ing in the comfort of your own home

Advantages: Durable, rugged, great value for money, easy to use.
Disadvantages: Calorie counter isn't that accurate

...I needed a replacement for an inferior V-Fit elliptical that broke within 2 months of buying it and set about looking at alternatives. A local gym instructor suggested I take a look at the Reebok range since they have a good reputation for quality, ease of use and being good value for money. After a lot of looking around, reading up and research I decided to buy the Reebok 3 Series elliptical trainer. That was just over 14 months ago and I know that I made the right decision in purchasing this model. ****Assembly**** When I opened the box I was amazed at the amount of pieces that needed putting together. That said, everything is clearly labelled with the ?L? or ?R? sticker indicating where it should go. Whilst a sticker may be a bit patronising at first it is very useful since the pieces do look very similar and it is not easy...

Review of Reebok 3 Series Elliptical Cross Trainer

Three Steps to Heavenly Thighs

Advantages: Cardiovascular workout, works bums and thighs
Disadvantages: Neds willpower, takes up space

...**Ciao Health Warning** At no time try to imagine BizzyBek on a step machine, the disturbed mental image could seriously damage your health and Ciao will not be held responsible for any ill effects caused. In this opinion I would like to talk about Steppers in general as well as my own Tunturi machine which is tri 400 which is practically identical to the C500 but was one year earlier I believe Ah the step machine. From the humble stairs to the hi-tech step machine, stair climbing has long been hailed as one of the most effective exercises to firm and tone bums and thighs. From the simplistic first hydraulic step machines to the new fangled, positively sci-fi creations many of us will either come across one of these instruments of torture at a gym or bring the contraption into our own home. I have done both, I've climbed in...

Review of Tunturi C500 Tristepper

Nordictrack CXT 1400

Advantages: Folds away very small, Computer logging
Disadvantages: none so far!

...This elliptical trainer is fantastic value for money! If you're looking for a full sized elliptical trainer that can fold away into less than half its original size, then this is the one for you. The training module comes with 4 workout modes as well as a 'make your own route' function. This is great when you get tired of doing computer generated ones or just fancy something a bit diferent. This particular model even comes with a built in fan to keep you cool during those extensive fat-burning sessions! The CXT 1400 is built to last, with its arms being made out of tough metal and chunky durable plastic footplates this machine can take a beating! As well as just doing the workouts, you can hookup a pc and log your activities and heartrate through the nordictrack website! Fantastic machine at a low low price!...
