Sunny Health & Fitness Elite Recumbent Cross Trainer & Elliptical Machine with Arm Exercisers for Home Arm/Leg Training, Easy Adjust Seat & Mesh Backrest, Free SunnyFit App Bluetooth Connectivity

I recently purchased this elliptical bike, and I couldn’t be more impressed with its performance and quality. First and foremost, it’s incredibly sturdy—you can feel the solid construction the moment you step on it. It doesn’t wobble or shift, even during intense workouts, which gives me complete confidence while using it.The comfort level is outstanding as well. The pedals are comfortable , sturdy and ergonomically designed, making it easy to maintain long sessions without discomfort. The handles are padded and positioned perfectly, ensuring a natural grip throughout.One of the standout features is how smooth the motion is. The stride feels fluid and consistent, closely mimicking a natural running or walking motion. There’s no jarring or stiffness, making it gentle on the joints, which is a huge plus for me.Lastly, the overall quality of the machine is excellent. From the premium materials to the attention to detail in the design, it’s clear that this elliptical was built to last. I also appreciate how quiet it is—perfect for early morning workouts without disturbing the rest of the household.This elliptical bike is undoubtedly a great investment for anyone looking to improve their fitness at home. It’s reliable, comfortable, and delivers a high-quality workout experience. Highly recommend!

This bike is 100% what I expected it to be. It’s very sturdy and it works smoothly. This bike functions exactly like the recumbent bike I used at physical therapy before and after recent back surgery. It was affordable yet still does the same job as the PT bike which I found was priced at over $5000. It’s comfortable to use and the controls and programmable display are great.Assembly is moderately involved and the bike is heavy. I had to have a friend do it for me due to my post surgery limitations. Actually ‘two friends’ initially, to unbox it and move it into the house. But with me reading the assembly instructions and being the parts and tools boy it only took about 40 minutes to put together.I highly recommend this bike!

Excellent packaging. Lots of assembly required. All necessary tools are included, but use your own tools (metric) if you have them. The tools supplied are sometimes a bit awkward to use. Assembly was easy given the detailed instructions and well organized hardware, except for attaching the seat bar to the frame. The bolt holes did not line up well enough to get the bolts started. Customer support suggested prying into alignment using a screwdriver and/or flipping the seat bar, to no avail. Finally was able to gain sufficient alignment using two bar clamps and prying with the screwdriver. Customer service refused to acknowledge the need for the clamps so as to cover up the apparent manufacturing (or design) defect. Once together, the machine felt sturdy and operated smoothly. The display is hard to see without perfect lighting and viewing angle. User settings are not saved, so you have to re-enter your age and such each time you start an exercise session. The heart rate sensor works only with sufficiently damp hands and are located on the fixed handles rather than the exercise handles. I was hoping that my wife and I could use the machine to stay in shape, but the stride is too long for her. A shorter crank arm option would have been useful. The user interface, although functional, is a good 20 years behind the times.

I just recently received this elliptical bike and assembled it this week. Reading the reviews here I was concerned about 2 things with assembly: the left pedal, and screwing in the seat bottom. But things went fine. The axle for the left pedal had the correct screw thread direction. Both pedals attached well and they’re both standing up to use and I don’t have to keep tightening the left one as some have had to do. And the machining for the seat bottom was fine and all screws lined up well and could be tightened. And for reference I’m a 57 yo woman who sometimes assembles furniture and uses tools but is no expert.It is very heavy and I needed my husband to help me move to its location. You’ll need to assemble it where you plan to use it. The hardest part of assembly for me was attaching the swing arms and linking them to the pedals correctly. I used the YouTube video to follow assembly although some parts (the swing arm attachment) were a little different. I noticed that the video instructions had a different order of assembly than the manual but either way should be fine.So far I’ve been doing workouts through the SunnyFit app. I’ve been viewing it on a tv with hdmi but if it were a more recent tv you can mirror the app or use airplay. You set up a profile with your age, weight, height and you then don’t need to enter anything into the machine itself. It will calculate calories burned according to your profile info. I’ve noticed that the calories burned is greatly exaggerated! I had a 30 some minute workout and it said 500 calories burned. But an online calorie calculator suggested for someone my size it should have been about 250 or 300 calories. I’ll have to look into this and see if I can get it to make better estimates.So far I’ve only used “world tour” workouts. Bluetooth connectivity is easy and quick. Some of these workouts have no sound, none have a trainer. I’ve used iFit in the past and that was my favorite part of the app- hearing about an area from the trainer. Sometimes I wish iFit trainer would just quiet down, and I suppose that’s what I’m getting here with the SunnyFit app. Of course since the app is free it isn’t fair to compare. I notice all the workouts with trainers are in the same room, so it’s quite a step down to the sessions with iFit. There is much much fewer selections. When I restrict a search to elliptical workouts of intermediate or advanced workouts there are a couple dozen choices (world tour) and most are for running. Workouts like cross country skiing matches elliptical the best and there is just a handful of those.I’ll try to update after I’ve used it for a while!Edit: I’m about 5’4” and I found I was setting my feet incorrectly and had foot pain. My mistake was to place the back of my shoe against the very bottom of the pedal where there is a little wall. I recommend that for shorter people place your foot in the very middle of the pedal (front to back) so the the strap isn’t over your toes but over the laces of your shoe. It should feel more ergonomic that way

Great bike. I saved $70 bucks a month on health clubs. Easy to assemble, it’s helps to have 2nd person. Has many exercise levels, very quiet and easy to use. The whole family uses it
