Octane Q37e Elliptical Trainer Review

My husband works for a fitness equipment retailer, and for about a year I would drool over the Octane. Finally, we made the decision to take the plunge and make the purchase and we haven't been disappointed at all.

- Small footprint - great for small-ish spaces versus those other ellipticals with the long tracks
- Great overall workout - if you use the Arm Blaster along with the regular ellipitcal strides you're sweating within mintues
- Perfect for "casual" users and athletes - I'm the casual user - probably hop on once or twice a week, and my husband "abuses" it every day. It has held up great for over a year now!
- Smooth "stride" - if you're in the market for an elliptical, be sure to test out a few - you'll see that some can have a "jerky" stride, but the Octane is smooth all the way!
- Easy to use - you can either just turn it on and go, or create specific routines for yourself using "hills", "random", etc
- Great value - yes, it's pricey, but if you really want a great workout, and you're really planning on using it, it's well worth the price. Plus, it's probably smarter to buy quality fitness equipment than go cheap and end up with a coat rack. :)

If I could, I would buy an Octane for every member of my family. It's a great workout for folks with a limited amount of time - even 15 minutes will rock your world!
