VITALmaxx 08024 Cardio Fitness Trainer Duo | Home Trainer | Spin Bike | Exercise Bike

Bought this for my Dad who is 89 as the last one he had broke. This was easy to put together, much sturdier than his previous one and he is using it on a daily basis.

I was lulled into thinking this would be a good buy by the various positive reviews I read on Amazon, but the fact is that you get what you pay for (and I should have paid more). First of all bear in mind there is no seat and you have to sit in your own chair - getting the height right is not easy. Secondly it's not the worst thing to put together but it isn't that easy to do. Thirdly it isn't that sturdy: the pedals are a joke and the structure waves about and moves on the carpet (we had to put a rubber mat under it). Fourthly I cannot get the controls to tighten up - yes the handles do turn the screws but the pressure required to move the pedals never seems to change. And it doesn't fold up so you've got it standing there all the time - you have to dismantle parts of it to make it smaller and I'm not going through all the hassle of putting it back together every time I use it! I'm very surprised as it purports to be German.

Not bad, goes together easily. Can use just your arms or legs or both together. Only problem for me was my short legs, you need to sit a bit higher if you want to work your legs. Easy to use though and does work.

This product was great when i bought it almost 2 weeks ago. Then this evening the bracket for the pedal has completely snapped off!! Very annoyed and disappointed as it was helping me get my fitness back. I would request a new pedal attachment to be sent. Its not right paying out good money for this to happen!!

Arrived quickly and easy to assemble, it's light and easy to lift about which is great for me at 63yrs. I placed it up against the skirting board before using it and found that stopped it from moving when in use. It works for me as I don't get out much in bad weather, so this will help me to focus on keeping myself reasonably fit.

Very light and easy to use,i use it while watching telly instead of just sitting in my chair, legs and arms ached a bit at first but now that's all gonegood way to exercize good value

Overall it was fine some of the screws kept coming out of the frame I'm disabled so it was unsteady for me

It looked good once I had assembled it, but the peddle broke off it. A was disappointed as it looked sturdy enough. I have to send it back yo Germany to get a refund
