How We Review Elliptical Cross Trainers

We consider the following when evaluating an elliptical trainer:

  • The Design - The overall design and engineering will determine whether you have a machine that contributes to your overall health and fitness, or just a toy built for obsolesces.

  • The Components - There are quality components and there are cheap equivalents. If your elliptical cross trainers is equipped with cheap parts, guess what, it probably will have problems with minimal usage.

  • The Warranty - Hopefully you won't need service with your cross trainer, but if you do, you want your warranty to cover the maximum period. That period will cover the expenses of parts replacement and service. A decent elliptical trainer should come with a 1 year service warranty and 2-3 years are parts. Any less and you are not getting a real machine.

  • Overall value - We review value within different price ranges. Obviously you cannot compare value between a $1,000 elliptical vs. a $5,000 commercial unit. Our goal is to find the best value within your budget.

  • The Company Reputation for Customer Service - Most people do not think about the quality of the customer for a manufacturer until their machine breaks down. Getting your elliptical cross trainer serviced can either go smoothly or be a nightmare. We attempt to identify those companies that have an outstanding service reputation.

Remember, you are not only buying an elliptical cross trainer, but you are also purchasing the service that stands behind it. Fitness equipment often requires service, or at the very least you may have an inquiry regarding your elliptical. It is important to purchase from a company that has a good reputation for customer service and fulfillment. You want to be sure you purchase a machine from a company that is responsive.
