Still Works Great After Years of Use!
My boyfriend and I use this Sole elliptical at least five days a week for years and it's still going strong! For our household the Sole elliptical was a very good investment. Ease of Use For me, I use the handles so that I can get more of a full body workout. My favorite feature is that you can program and save your own workouts so that when you get on you can just press a button and go, as you would for the other set workouts it comes with. I do one minute each of going as fast as I can, then with as high of difficultly as I can, and last a minute of just normal (this makes me sweat like beast, it's amazing, even if just for 15 minutes!), so that's what I have saved as my programmed workout. Durability We've made a few minor repairs over the years (replaced a foot pedal and, separately, one of the rails) but those were easy to order and accomplish using the Sole website. We even got the parts free the first time even though the elliptical was already years out of warranty! I should mention that my boyfriend is over six feet tall (he's not a small guy!) and he's actually the one who primarily uses the elliptical for hours on a daily basis, just to give you an idea of what this machine can take! He doesn't use the handles either because he likes to use it while he plays games on his Playstation, which must be putting quite a bit of additional pressure on the pedals (probably why one cracked!).
