YOSUDA Recumbent Exercise Bike for Home，Magnetic Staionary Bike for Seniors/Adults with Adjustable Seat, 350LB Capacity, 16-level Resistance, LCD Monitor & Pulse Sensors

I am a 69" male in my 60's, and I purchased this machine to perform the cardio portion of the Modified Levine Protocol. Thus far, I have used the exercise machine for 6 exercise sessions, mostly of 20 minute duration, employing various resistance levels. This machine is extremely well designed, and the manufacturing quality is high.Since some reviewers reported assembly difficulties, I allowed plenty of time and double-checked each step. Assembly, including discarding the packaging material, required about 3 hours for me. Note the following tips: One hollow bar exists solely to sacrificially protect one machine leg during shipping. It should simply be discarded. As noted in the instructions, the pedal threads for one of the pedals are left-handed (so that it won't unscrew during use).I particularly like how the machine is quiet, stable, and compact. It is easy to move the unit: Simply lift up on bar at the rear of the machine, and it can be rolled on the rollers on the front. This does not require much strength.The seat can easily be positioned to any arbitrary point in the adjustment range. I positioned the seat about 2" from the maximum pedal distance. Depending on individual preference, users with an inseam is longer than 34" might find the maximum pedal distance too short.The "computer" is fairly basic, but it is easy to use. The pulse sensor seems to be quite accurate, generally reading within 1-2 bpm of my wrist-worn fitness tracker. Really like having the pulse information on the display (vs. having to check my fitness tracker).The seat back is fixed, but I found the angle to be just right. However, I put a small cushion between the seat back and the small of my back, for additional lumbar support.The machine has a wide range of resistance levels, and I had no difficulty finding enough resistance to quickly elevate my heart rate into exercise zone 2 with speed of about 15.In short, I'm completely pleased with my purchase. I felt that I received an excellent value/cost ratio, and I would recommend this product.

arrived on the early range of days, and extremely well-packed. The directions were quite clear and the labeling of parts made the process of assembly much easier - there were a few times where screwing items together was difficult by the location or the angle, but it was assembled in under 2 hours. Thus far, everything works and is sturdy, comfortable, and a smaller footprint than my previous model.

so what do you need to know. Its great item, great price, I see why America is loosing retail. but the facts stay on track. it works you pedal and loose weight. now I am 6 feet 2" tall and its too small for me. they need to make the seat go back a few more inches or offer us a pc we can make it go back more. but the item is easy to put together even for me with my shoulder operation. did good. the battery operated what ever that thing that keeps your rates, yeah its crap. it dont work. its simple, it keeps minutes for you as does a clock. the pulse handles on the side, yeah they dont work. so for the money you get what you paid for it. the basic basic and it will help keep your shape. thats what its for. dont over think it, if your a gym nut this model isn't for you. I would never put this item in a gym. as far as the quality, its good. they have a video to help you put it together, nice. tools are well basic stupid stuff from china, I get it save a penny here and there.Pros: as I said you will gain strength and loose a lb or two.cons: yep as I said the battery operated computer look a like just doesn't work. but I knew that before I bought it. been buying stuff like this from china that just dont work. they sell for the quick turnaround make a buck and be happy.Well thats all folks, make it short.ITS FOR SHORT FOLKS, TALL FOLKS FORGET IT.

I got this bike to help me recover from an upcoming knee replacement. It took me a few hours to assemble, but it wasn’t that difficult. I did it myself in spite of bad knees and arthritic hands. The video they provide does help fill in the detail that is lacking in the user manual.Before purchasing this bike, I read a lot of reviews about the tension not adjusting well or at all, and lack of tension in the pedals. I was a little concerned about that, but saw more good reviews than bad, and have been researching exercise bikes for a while and decided to go ahead and get this one. I want to thank the reviewer who mentioned that their belt had to be put back on and they got great help after contacting customer service. There were a number of reviews that mentioned good customer service, and I think that’s what swayed my decision to get this bike.The first time I used my bike after assembling, I felt something kind of pop in the fly wheel thing, and immediately lost all tension on the pedals. The belt had come off — I could actually see it dangling inside by peeking in the small opening where the left side pedal is attached. I contacted the seller and got a response within about 8 hours of sending a message. They have a YouTube video that shows how to access the belt, and how to put it back on. I have to say it wasn’t as easy as the guy in the video makes it look, but I got it done, and now the tension and the tension adjuster knob work like you would expect.For the price, this is a great exercise bike that I expect will be perfect for my knee rehab. It’s quiet, and very sturdy. I’m tall (5’10” with long legs) and this bike could easily accommodate another 5-6” of leg length. Very happy with my purchase.
