  • LOVE IT!!!!! Easy one-person assembly, silent operation, & super fun to use!!!
Style: Schwinn 470
I read all the reviews for this machine, both on Amazon and throughout the net, before making the difficult decision whether to purchase it. I was a bit worried due to the negative comments on Amazon re difficulty to assemble, machine making noises, and poor customer service, but the detailed, research reviews I read on other sites comparing it to their machines pursuaded me to try it. Besides, I have had a Schwinn treadmill for over 15 yrs now, which you can see next to my new elliptical in the pics I uploaded. Keeping the Amazon reviews in mind, I was determined to document the process of receiving, setting up, and using to post here. First, I am happy to say it came four days earlier than expected. The FedEx people called me that morning to make sure I would be home to receive it. I was so excited! I posted a pic of the box, which was easy for one person to move with a regular 2 wheel dolly. I took all the pieces out of the box and then followed the instructions, page by page. It was very easy, all I had to do was insert/tighten screws/bolts—many times the bolts/washers were already inserted into their respective parts, all I had to do was take them out, combine them with another part, and put them back in (see pics I posted of these bolts). I did not need to use any of my own tools, everything was provided (Allen wrench, Phillips screw driver, 3 open ended wrenches, and 2 socket-type wrenches). I got it all put together very easily—and all by myself, a 46 yr old woman! No need for two people or a mechanic! I downloaded the Schwinn app into my phone to sync via BlueTooth my exercise stats and keep tract of goal attainment, which was also very easy and took only 5 mins to download and set up. My machine immediately acknowledged my phone via the BlueTooth. And then the time had come to ride it... it was so amazing! It has a 3-speed fan, cup holder, Phone holder, and iPad holder with USB port! It also has an audio/headphone type jack (with cable provided) for MP3 audio to its speakers. All in all, I’m a happy camper excited to get into better shape. I love how smoothly and silently the machine works and how it really works my whole body without putting any stress at all on my joints. I hope others decide to give this machine a shot—I’m glad I did!!! ... show more

  • Good quality construction for the price.
Style: Schwinn 470
I have been using the elliptical machine for 3 weeks, and it is holding up to my expectations so far. What I like best...the digital display, which monitors time, distance, heart rate, and level intensity. The intensity is easy to control by pushing the intensity level buttons up or down without getting off the machine. The occasional squeak occurs, but assembly comes with an oil bottle. I used oil once so far in 3 weeks, just add a drop or two to the connection points. I like an elliptical machine, much lighter on the knees and the ability to tone arms at the same time compared to a treadmill, but would like to see a larger stride length motion with the arms. I used the Orbitrek for almost 15 years, in fact went through 2 of them in this time frame. This is a rear drive elliptical, compared to the Schwinn which is a front drive elliptical. The front drive allows my legs to be closer together. This is a plus if you are short framed. The construction and materials used on the Schwinn is high grade, nothing cheap. When standing on the machine, you are off the ground about 12 inches, if you are tall and installing this in a room with a low ceiling…lookout. The foot print of the machine is 6 feet long by 2 ½ feet wide. Assembly could be intimidating if you are not handy. If you know the difference between an allen wrench and a socket wrench then you should have no problem (if you have to google this then pay extra money to have it pre-assembled). Assembly took just under an hour and I consider myself and handy person. Directions are easy to follow if you have the mechanical mind set. ... show more

  • Impressive For Price/Easy To Assemble
Style: Schwinn 470
9/25/18: When I bought Amazon was offering free assembly, but I didn't want to hassle with the scheduling, so I did it myself. I do not regret the decision as the total time to assemble was only about 1 to 1.5 hours. The directions are relatively clear with each step on a separate page. One interesting thing is some of the fasteners (bolts/screws, etc.) come attached to the unit while others are attached to a piece of cardboard with a layer of plastic. One somewhat annoying thing is the ones attached to the unit tend to be screwed in all the way, which lengthens the assembly time due to more time needed to unscrew, but that's a minor matter. Only two steps were easier with a second person helping: Moving the frame (wheel) assembly onto the rail; and Attaching the console mast. The rest was all an easy one-person job, and the directions were clear. The worst part of assembly was disposing of all the packaging material, particularly styrofoam. I've had other equipment that creaked a bit in use, so for this unit I put lithium grease between any connected parts that are bolted together. I don't know that it helped, but the unit doesn't make any unwanted noises. Also, not obvious in the instructions, the supplied silicone lubricant is for where the wheels of the "legs" roll back and forth across the rail assembly. There are a lot of reports of these units breaking after a period of time. I don't know if they've beefed up the product with the 2017 revision, but if this thing breaks it's likely from bad welds, or maybe someone using it who weighs over 300 pounds. The design seems very sturdy. As to use, I'm early on, but you can adjust both resistance and incline either by pushing an up/down button or by hitting five buttons for each option. So if you want resistance at 5 and incline at 20, you can hit the 5 and 20 button, or two different "up" buttons repeatedly. There are also several pre-programed courses you can set up. The display is relatively clear, but if you put a tablet in place it will block the upper portion of the screen. The console also has a built-in fan (three speeds) and speakers, as well as a USB and audio input connection (with supplied cable). One thing slightly annoying is the first push of the fan button puts in on high. It will also save data for four different users. It will connect to an Android device with the Schwinn Trainer app, which syncs the data from the machine. Not sure how useful that is, but the journal portion of that app does track your use. Finally, the console turns off automatically after five minutes of non-use. As to use, again I'm early on, but I'm surprised how smoothly the unit operates, both at a steady state and with changes to resistance or incline. Those changes also do not result in any extra noises during the change. The one bad thing is the static heart beat sensor system does not work terribly well. I've ordered a chest strap and will report on how that works later. Finally, I'm in fairly good shape but find this thing can provide a rather good workout even at the less than half settings. 9/28/18: A few more comments. I would highly recommend getting a heartbeat sensor because the effort you can expend on this thing is greater than what you'd realize. I bought the Polar T31 non-coded and it works fine, although sometimes intermittently. That may be due to having my tablet on the console. Which leads to the next issue. Electronic devices on the left side of the console block the heartbeat monitor reception. That is in the manual. It means I have to have my tablet in portrait mode--not a huge deal, but a minor annoyance. It also blocks the upper display, but if you use the "edit lower display" function you can have it always display the information you are most interested in. Which leads to the next issue. The mileage readout is apparently affected by the intensity of resistance, which doesn't make much sense. But going 100 strokes at the 1 level have you going less far than 100 strokes at level 5. I don't really care about distance, and go more by time and heartbeat, but for those who do . . .. 10/18/18: Still no issues with unwanted noises. I had planned on re-tightening the bolts at some point, but have had no reason to do so to date. The blockage of the heartbeat monitor is a bit more severe than I first indicated--basically if you want to use a wireless heartbeat monitor don't plan on having anything sitting on the console. But again I would highly recommend getting such a device because it is way too easy to overexert yourself with this device. Finally, it is amazing how with regular use you can see your progress by way of increased resistenace or incline settings. Much better exercise than just walking. Edit 11/29/18. I've been using this about 5 hours a week for over two months and still no issues. Occasionally there will be an unusual noise, but those have always gone away after less than 5 minutes. There have been no creaking noises from the frame, nor have I felt the need to retighten any connections. I've quit using a table in any location on the display because it does affect the wireless heart monitor. Not the biggest problem because I now keep the tablet in a higher location so that my head isn't bent down so much. 5/10/19: Just making a note of when I'm cutting back my usage. I've been using this virtually every day until now, about 5 hours a week. I'm going to cut back to 4 days a week, about 3.5 hours. I'm heading into the summer months and even with AC that might be tough to keep up since the room faces east. Still no issue with excessive noise, but I did discover that if you don't oil the rails enough it will make noise. 3/15/20: The device did start making noise at times so I checked the tightness of the various connections. The four bolts that connect to two of the pipes on the floor had come not loose, but looser than what I had them torqued to originally. Tightening eliminated the noise. I've also switched from the oil provided for the rails to white lithium grease. I switched merely because I ran out of the provided oil, but the WLG seems to work longer between applications. The main negative is the fan has made noise about three times. Turning it off obviously stopped the noise, but when it was turned back on the next day it did not come back. These incidents were about a month apart. ... show more

  • Flawed Design and Engineering
Style: Schwinn 470
Update (1/21/20): The same leg has broken again on the machine. I took the head end casing apart (where the leg meets the flywheel housing) and found that the lower bolt has been snapped in half by the stress placed on it by the design of the machine. At this point, it really looks like a pretty major design flaw - every stride puts shearing force against the bolts in the assembly at the head of the leg that connects to the flywheel. It appears to be fixable (have to replace the bolt), but I'll have to get the broken half of the original bolt out of the leg before I can replace it, which will take some doing. Broken twice in the same place in less than a year (and I missed working out on it for approx. two months due to a back injury). Very disappointed in Schwinn and will not be purchasing one of their devices in the future. Update (5/12/20): I did not receive a response email from Mr. Wilson, but did receive a notification of shipment for another replacement part, which arrived a couple of days before the projected arrival. This time, the part was correct. I installed the new left leg piece and used the machine for a 32 minute session to test the stability. The new leg seems to have resolved the stability issue and the machine is running more smoothly. However, the joint where a horizontal portion of the leg meets the vertical portion that ends in the handlebar was making a loud knocking/clanking sound. After finishing the run, I checked it and found that a bolt making a connection in the joint had come loose (possibly due to the initial instability rocking it loose). As the machine did not come with a socket big enough to fit the bolt, I had to use a socket from my tool kit (glad I had a good socket set!) to tighten the bolt. Doing so reduced the knocking and clanking quite a bit, but it appears that a plastic spacer may have cracked and broken off, so there's still a bit of play in that joint compared to the right leg. I will probably see about replacing that spacer with a metal part that won't break at the first sign of stress. I have to say that, while I like the functionality of the machine, I feel like the quality control in the manufacturing is poor. Given the cost of the machine and the well-known brand, I would expect better than this. Original Review: I would give this machine four or five stars for the functionality and comfort, but am unable to do so due to a flaw that made the machine unstable after only a week of use. The left leg began rocking significantly when in use, creating balance issues and making the unit feel unsafe. I called the support line to initiate a warranty claim and spoke with a very pleasant and professional gentleman named Mr. Wilson after a very lengthy hold (which I get, due to the pandemic). He took my information and set up shipment of a replacement part. The part arrived one week later and was completely unrelated to the problem I’m having. Upon looking at a full parts list for the machine, I couldn’t even find that part listed (I searched for the part name stated on the box in which it came). I have since reached back out to Mr. Wilson via email and hope to hear back. As of now, I must consider this a faulty device and a broken repair process on the part of Schwinn. It’s a shame as, for the first week, I loved the elliptical and would have given it a strong review. ... show more

  • Worth the money
Style: Schwinn 470
I love this machine! It took a few hours to assemble by myself. But the instructions are very clear, and all the various pieces of hardware are unambiguously labeled. The machine is smooth and incredibly quiet in operation—-you could literally exercise with someone asleep in the next room, if not the same room. My only complaint is the electronics. It is not intuitive or obvious setting up and using the very brightly lit panel. But to be fair, I havent finished going through the operation manual yet. BTW, that manual is online; only the assembly instructions come in the box. Even without knowing my calories burned or miles traveled (if those are even accurate ever), the ease and smoothness of this solid machine make it a good if expensive purchase. Final note, to fellow old-folks: this is totally non jarring on your knees! I had been considering a treadmill instead, but this is much much better! It is bulky though, and you have to be careful getting on and off. ... show more

  • Glad I bought the latest and greatest model! 4.5 Stars
Style: Schwinn 470
Differences between the 430, 430(2016), 470, and MY17 470: 430: base model (2 user profiles, upload data to thumb drive for connectivity to SchwinnConnect.com, manual incline) 430 (2016): updated console (looks only I think) 470: 4 user profiles + 7 additional programs + motorized incline MY17 470: 4 user profiles + 7 additional programs + motorized incline + bluetooth connectivity to the SchwinnConnect App (free). Pros: -Assembly was easy to understand. -Love the Bluetooth/app connectivity, -motorized incline, -speakers (seem loud enough), -that it charges my phone with the usb port -that it has a headphone jack that I can use to listen to music/shows though the speakers, -it has a fan that works well. -Gives a killer workout. -For home gym equipment, it seems sturdy. -Plenty of programs to choose from. Cons: -Assembly was a little time-consuming. It took me (mostly by myself) 4 hours. It's a bit awkward to move and assemble the heavy parts, but honestly, what can you expect; you are assembling an elliptical. -Workouts seem much harder than on the one I used at the gym; I think this is because the weight of the fly wheel isn't as heavy as the gym-quality ones and it isn't free spinning. -The fan makes a small vibrating sound and the console makes a vibrating sound when I adjust the resistance or incline. -The programs aren't super easy to browse through - read the instructions on how to use the console. Assembly tips: -Can be awkward to maneuver depending on your physical ability. I did it mostly by myself, but needed my kids' help keeping things out of the way while I connected the electronic wires. -Speaking of connecting wires, make sure they are connected correctly before moving on. I was so nervous after I put it together that the wires wouldn't be connected right and that I would have to take it apart to fix it. -Read the steps twice and make sure you know where all the bolts and screws go and have everything needed for that step within arms reach BEFORE starting each step. -Set it up where you intend to put it when it's done. (I bought the mat and I'm glad I did.) -The screws for the water holder are pre-attached to the static handlebars, not the holder. (I figured this out after searching through all the trash packaging.) -The Schwinn Connect App (free) is required to connect to the Bluetooth. (This app syncs with Google Fit and MyFitness Pal.) -Buy the silicone lubricant. It comes with enough to last a couple of weeks, but you'll need to lubricate the tracks weekly. (Another good reason to buy the mat is that the lubricant can get on the floor - glad the mat catches it.) ... show more

  • Good machine but with glaring flaws
Style: Schwinn 470
PROS: The machine feels solid and unlike other reviewers I haven’t had any mechanical problems or noise. Cons: Having said that: I hate using handle bars on ellipticals and want to just hold on to the heart rate monitor handlebars instead. BUT, the way the moving handle bars were made, the moving handlebars kept hitting my forearms every stride when my hands were holding onto the heart rate monitor. I consider this a glaring design issue. I ended up exchanging/putting the left handle on the right side and Vice versa. When I do feel in the mood to use the moving handlebars, don’t need to hold onto the moving handlebars horizontally anyways and can use the ball of plastic at the ends of them if wanting to use the handlebars. Anyways, it annoyed me a lot. Even if use the heart rate monitors occasionally, it will be extremely distracting to have the handlebars hitting your forearms every stride??? Remember aerobic exercise doesn’t involve upper body much for most part. It’s stupid to include resistance for upper body when upper body workouts should for 90% of people left for anaerobic workouts/weights. This exercise machine tries to market the machine by using this stupid “use handlebars to burn more calories faster” nonsense. In other words, I believe they thought Everyone would use the handlebars. No, Schwinn. Burning calories faster is NOT what aerobic exercise is for. It’s for holding higher heart rate than normal for a long time. Anyways, I hate the moving handlebars but moving them to opposite sides solved my issue. 2. Console is atrocious. Calorie counter is exponentially wrong, and distance is likely counted literally by stride length. Elliptical calorie count should be something between treadmill and cycling. When this machine says you spent 50 calories, you likely spent 100-150 calories and if the machine says you went .1 mile, you likely would have gone half a mile on a exercise bike. It’s so off, it’s ridiculous. I’ve had numerous exercise machines and seen lots of calorie counters and distance monitors. Had 2 different treadmills from Precor, LANDICE, etc, and ellipticals from pre or, horizon, sole, etc. This is worst of the bunch by far for guesstimating distance and calorie count. It’s flat out wrong. And 3. This has to be the only console I’ve ever seen without a Interval program. I believe intervals are absolutely basic necessity in any set of exercise programs. This console doesn’t have interval program. It took me by surprise that the console has nothing like that. 4. Console has “set goals” you can set by time, distance, etc for each program. I hate this also. It’s actually disincentivize for my psyche. I want to workout listening to my body depending on day, not pushed past or less by a machine. It will disincentivize you too. Program should continue even after the program or let you change on fly. It doesn’t really. Console is most unfriendly I’ve ever seen. Very awkward and anti-incentivizing. At its core, the machine feels solid and for most part, I don’t regret purchase for the price, but uff, they need to quality test these with normal people more. The issues are so stupid and glaring, it’s ridiculous really. Edit 9/03/22: After using more, I did find “interval” program buried in the awful UI, except, yeah, it’s not really an interval but a hilly type of workout except it only adjusts resistance and NOT incline. UI also doesn’t allow for programming incline; you can only program the resistance. Pause function in workout system is the worst I’ve ever seen. If you get a 10 minute phone call in the middle of your workout, forget it, your workout so far gets auto-deleted. It’s a HOME machine, why have a timed reset? Who programmed this? Programming custom program is so laborious and unintuitive and waste of time, and every week you’re bound to outlive the programmed workout and no easy way to reprogram, you just have to do the laborious 10-15 minute custom program again, from scratch!!!! No. And today, after just a pause to get a drink, I get back on the machine, and spinning wouldn’t start the program again like it’s supposed to. This UI makes it a pain in the butt to keep track of your workouts. Just horrible. That and the stupid handle bars hitting me whenever I stride just kills any enjoyment. And the more I use it, the UI gets more and more annoying. The interface has plenty room, why does it have to cycle between different data like time, resistance, etc.? Why can’t it just SHOW all at same time??? Really what ijiot designed this UI??? ... show more

  • Great home gym machine
Style: Schwinn 470
I had lived in apartment complexes with gyms for years, but only really ever used the elliptical (or ran outside). I exercise consistently for 30 minutes a day, but haven’t run more than five miles at a time if that helps you gauge my fitness level; I am a relatively fit mid 30s woman. When I moved to a house last month I knew I needed my own elliptical. Given the high review on Consumer Reports balanced with the cost (and good reviews on Amazon) I went with this machine. I paid the $89 for Amazon assembly. Money very well spent. A thorough and professional man arrived and it took him 2 hours to set this up even though he’s done lots of ellipticals (including one earlier that day). I imagine many issues people have with this machine are due to the complicated assembly leading to mechanical errors. We would have really struggled with assembling this ourselves. Overall I love the machine. The control system is comprehensive and easy to use. The buttons for automatically adjusting the resistance and incline are big and accessible (and this unit has automatic incline, one of a few extras that makes it worth more than the base model of the same Schwinn). It provides a good workout that is changeable. It is fairly quiet with some swishing/rubbing noises as you exercise but nothing too loud or distracting. It is ergonomically comfortable. The heart rate monitor seems fairly accurate (gauged by my Apple Watch). Negatives would be that even on the lowest settings the resistance is pretty high. I naturally went to level 2/25 though was much higher on the gym machine I was using last month. It isn’t whisper quiet. The mileage and calorie counters seem way off -much lower- from previous machines I’ve used, if this is something you like to track with the machine (I just go by workout time). For a sub $1000 machine I think this is very close to gym quality. I am happy I chose it (along with assembly!). I will try to update again when I’ve had it for more than several weeks as others’ reviews have helped me. ... show more
