Elliptical Trainer Reviews

Horizon SXE 7.7 Elliptical Trainer

MSRP: $1,199.99

Bottom Line: Horizon has been making front drive ellipticals for about five years now. The feel and movement is not as good as their sister brand, Vision. Quality is definitely lacking given the low-end components used to manufacture these elliptical trainers.

Pros:

• Articulating foot pedals.
  
  

• Awkward-looking display.
  
  
• Old, tired roller track elliptical design.
