As a Post Stroke survivor. The arm and hand require the most additional exercise the leg and feet get daily exercise if one regains the ability to stand and walk. So this exerciser is just one more inexpensive way to try to regain arm use.

I LOVE this machine! I cannot walk or do any exercise except water aroebics. This has really increased the strength in my legs. My doctor did research after I told him about it, and he is now recommending it to his patients.

I bought both this deluxe model and the basic model for rehab after torn-meniscus knee arthro surgery. Besides having the monitors, the deluxe model is smoother and feels sturdier while pedaling, has a smaller rotation diameter than the basic model, and of course less mobile than the basic model. If you can lift it to a table, it works well as an arm pedaler. It’s short of a 5-star rating because one of the pedals unwinds itself periodically., and also the feet are more slippery than the basic model. A 24″ square of spongy rug underlay material works fine as a base over carpet or hard flooring. I would recommend it even as a general exercise piece for the home.

I got this via fedex yesterday morning, so this is a very preliminary review. I will post an addendum in a few weeks.
First of all, it arrived ready to use as advertised. It seems to be a sturdy, well-constructed machine.
For arm exercises, I had no problem at all. I put it on a table and after using it with my arms for five minutes, I had worked up quite a sweat. I get no exercise at all. I got this in hopes of changing that.
When it came to pedaling with my feet, I encountered a problem. I couldn’t turn the pedals without the machine moving. I have a tile floor, and that’s not the ideal floor for this machine. I had a friend come over and we tried putting some non-skid material under it. No luck. It still moved.
I knew it would probably move around on me from reading the reviews, but I did not realize how much.
I read where some people had to put this in front of a wall or something solid. I found a place that would allow me to both pedal with my feet and also do my arm exercises. It is under a counter which separates my living room from my kitchen. After I use it with my legs, I can lift it to my counter-top and do arm exercises.
Two things I wish could be designed into this machine: (1) some kind of a handle or grip that would facilitate moving the exerciser from the floor to the table top (2) the stabilizer bars should extend further out from the body of the machine – my feet come within and inch or so of the wall when I pedal. I would feel better if there were more clearance.
I gave it four stars because five indicates “I love it”. and four stars indicates “I like it”. I don’t “love it”, but I like it a lot – but keep in mind, it’s a “first impression”.
