Sunny Health & Fitness Stair Stepper Machine with Handlebar – SF-S020027

Purchased one for my 82 yr old mom. Worked great for overall mobility, balance and cardio. So good that I purchased a second one for my senior uncle out of state. He needed a little help with assembling as the handlebar screws have little to no play in them. (I suggest watching the assembly video and starting all the screws before tightening) This adds to the overall stability and the assembly time was still under an hour. Twisting motion took a little getting used to (both said they could feel it in their hips and knees for the first week). Only con is no tension adjustment. Great news is my Mom doesn't need her cane as much and can go up several flights of stairs with no problem. 3 months and going. Amazing stepper with small footprint.

Solid construction, nice motion, easy to assemble and move. I was planning to set a very low resistance for seniors for longer sessions but AFAICT you can only adjust the stair height. The lowest setting is a bit hard for them so they do shorter sessions instead.

Based on reviews from several sites, I chose this stair stepper because I wanted the most low-cost, basic, simple, entry-level machine. After a few days, I'd say it fits the bill. While it doesn't have adjustable tension per se, the adjustment of the stair height acts in that capacity. It seems sturdy, although when you are NOT standing on it, be careful to not let it fall forward. The lateral motion is easy to get used to. Not sure if there is a scientific reason for it, but it feels reasonably natural. The counter does what you would expect: time, steps, calories. I'm overall satisfied but there is a CAVEAT that you won't learn about until you purchase the machine. It's not in the description, and it's not in the reviews at other sites: per the instructions, it can only be used for 15 minutes at a time, with a 30 minute rest period between uses. This is so the hydraulics don't burn out. Admittedly, there's no way I could go for longer than 15 minutes right now, but it's a bit cheesy that this issues isn't prominently mentioned. There are two of us, and we had hoped to use the machine sequentially, but now person #2 has to wait 30 minutes before it can be used again. So, this lowers the functionality score to 4 stars. On the surprisingly plus side is the assembly. Being made in China, this product was likely to come with the usual gibberish English that makes no sense. But no! The instructions are actually clear and easy to follow, with good labelling and all the parts necessary (also labelled). The company gets 5 stars for clarity. I will update this review after the machine has been in use to comment on durability and long-term performance.

I definitely recommend buying this stepper. It is lightweight easy to use and makes no noise. The quality is good

I bought this machine to help build my bone density and strengthen my spine. I am 51 yrs old. I have severe osteoporosis in my L-spine , femoral neck and a 61 degree curve in my spine from scoliosis. I am unable to use weights so my doctor recommended a stepper so that I can use my own body weight for resistance training. I hop on this machine 3 times a day for 5 minutes at a time. It’s sturdy, compact and easy to use. I already feel core strength, tone in my legs, more flexibility, less stiffness and pain in my hips and improved posture. Not to mention it boosts my mood. Praying it helps build bone density but won’t know this until a follow up Dexa scan next year. I live in Alaska and the cold winters make it impossible for me to get out and walk so this machine has been a God send. I highly recommend this machine for those diagnosed with osteoporosis and scoliosis . Best wishes to good health

I'm disappointed. Putting together was easy but the bolts that go into main post 3 bolts when screwed in all the way keep spinning so they aren't tight. I'm alittle concerned about that and doesn't feel safe since my wife with chemo induced neurophaphy will be using to help her keep leg muscles and blood supply healthy. I pitbup against wall because she doesnt have good balance and it's not sturdy. As far as the tension goes there's a metal cord in plastic around a pulley and there's a knob with no marking on it that you turn to raise pedals or lower. I had to put no tension and it's pretty hard to step down and I'm not in bad shape. It does tip forward when not on it. I will keep because honestly I don't wanna deal with returning it. I may buy a bolt lock liquid for the bolts that don't tighten. I mean it will do the job , it's not heavy and takes up hardly any space. I will just have to monitor my wife when she uses it so she doesn't fall. I mean it is not much money but for even 90 bucks you want a safe product. It does make noise when using it and I'm not sure it's supposed to. When holding the handles it is a bit wobbly on the main m pole. It is what it is I guess. Update I have ordered another brand that's much sturdier and safer for my wife.

Highly recommended if you’re someone tight on space and this provides a surprising amount of resistance. It came nearly assembled and I was working out with it the next 10 minutes after opening the box. Was looking for something exactly like this! It is sturdy and I never feel like i’m going to lose my balance not using the handles, making me engage my core. Great for hopping on and off if you want to burn some quick calories if you have free time in between tasks/chores. I’ve used this thing at least an hour a day since I got it a week ago and I could not be happier. I know my knees and ankles are thanking me It is a fantastic value for the standard selling price but an absolute no brainer if you can get it on sale

I LOVE this stepper. It makes working out so easy. It has this fantastic feature where it pauses the timer and steps when you get off and then picks right back up when you continue. I like this because you can set a goal for the day if you aren’t in the shape needed to do it all at once. It is compact, easy to move, and not loud. I ended up getting a second one for my office at work. And my parents got one too!

Dieses Gerät hat ein tolles Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Es ist leicht aufzubauen und erfüllt seinen Zweck hervorragend. Hervorzuheben ist die ausgezeichnete Bedienungs und Aufbauanleitung mit großer Schrift, die sogar ich lesen kann. Der Aufbau wird dort brillant beschrieben.. für alle denen das Gerät zu wackelig ist, empfehle ich es einfach gegen eine Wand einen Tisch, einen Stuhl oder einen anderen festen Gegenstand zu stellen. Damit hat man das Problem sofort beseitigt. Ich finde es aber nicht störend..

Prodotto ben fatto, materiali di qualità e ben stabile. Ideale per donne anche di una certa età che vogliono fare del movimento

Super pour travailler les jambes, je le recommande, facile à monter.

適度な負荷を掛けることが出来、室内での運動に最適です。
