LIVESTRONG LS13.0E Elliptical Trainer

love this machine. Now exercising every other day for 15 min. Machine really cause me to sweat but very easy and fun to move. Feels almost natural. No body pain or discomfort. At home is perfect, no need to go to gym. Machine is not absolutely quiet due to not smooth guard rail. The single tire per leg will cause noise too if out of balance or step into the side too far. I prefer 2 tires per leg. The included wrench is too soft I made the edges rounded. Bought a replacement and took me 10 hours to assemble total. Use it carefully. One screw almost did not fit since it has metal left over on the way but I placed it from the other side and is still perfect. Overall, machine has some tweak noise or sometimes quiet, depends on your position. This is after 2 weeks. But initially no noise, only guard rail friction noise. The guard rail must be shiny smooth! Still quiet for me overall. Resistance feature is great. Audio is better than iPad. The heart rate sensor measure only for a few seconds of touch. Otherwise reading will increase continuously indefinitely. Firmware upgrade never worked. Size is bulky and very heavy but also very stable or not swaying almost. Built quality is good. Looks pleasing too for form. Overall price vs feature is worth it since it is on sale. I just buy it (if still on sale).

This is a great machine, easy to assemble and super quiet. Perfect for a living room.

After much research I decided on the livestrong 13.0. I am very pleased with it. It is very smooth, quiet and gives a great workout. I have used it for five days straight now and am loving it. It took my husband about 4 hours to put it together, although he is very particular. Solid machine.

I love this machine. It was just delivered on Monday. It is sturdy and works great. It takes a little while to put it together. But the instructions are clear and the bolts and washers are separated by step. The directions are clear and all parts were accounted for. Once together it is quiet and smooth and works awesome thus far. The display is easy to use. But as with everything read the instructions. As with most reviews, people do not read the instructions then call the equipment a piece of junk. I know it is early, but so far so good. As with anything you buy, sometimes people get lemons. I think this is a fact of life. But I would recommend this machine at this sale price point.

I reviewed these machines and read that they seem to clank, clunk, and make noise.. I also read that a large majority of them are missing parts or have defective parts. For some reason I went ahead and bought one anyways. The machine seems like a solid piece of equipment but they were missing parts. I bought this machine on a Friday. Once I noticed the missing parts I had to call the tech line. They were closed for the weekend. I called today, Monday, and after being on hold for 30minutes and answering a bunch of questions regarding the maintenance of the machine, they said that the bolts are in the mail. It will take another 7 days she told me. That's at least 10 days I cannot use a machine I paid ALOT of money for! Read the reviews, and plan on waiting for parts or service. Brutal!
