Assembly and Setup
Pros:
"Mine came with hex bolts already attached so after some trial and error and watching YouTube video, I finally was able to remove the tightly attached bolts so I could attach the stabilizers."
"The assembly was pretty intuitive."
"Easy to assemble following the video instead of the instructions included."
"It was easy to assemble and does a good job at what it’s made for."
"Easy to assemble, instructions aren't the best but thankfully the assembly is simple."
"Putting it together was simple."
"Well built, it was easy to assemble the needed parts prior to use."
Cons:
"I would have liked better instructions regarding the placement of the washers when assembling the feet."
"Not easy to assemble. The instructions left out an important step."
"I watched assembly videos and read instructions but it took me 3 hours of putting together and then taking apart again."
"The assembly instructions aren't clear - the pictures don't match what's included."
"Product came with incorrect assembly instructions and screws on base were stripped out making it impossible to put together."
"Instructions were too vague. Had 8 extra parts that seem to go no where. Has a strap but does not explain what it is for or where/how to connect it."
"OMG! WHERE DO I START=THIS PRODUCT HAS SO MANY PARTS, TWO MEN COULD NOT PUT IT TOGETHER."
Design and Quality
Pros:
"This little bike is great for moving your legs while you work."
"Small enough to keep out in the open which is good because if u see it everyday you are more likely to use!!"
"This mini exercise bike is the perfect size."
"I like that this mini cycle bike is light weight and sturdy!"
"I purchased this in white and it looks nice and not like a piece of dark equipment, like a TV or a computer."
"Great study product! Great price too!"
"Love this. I feel much better since I’ve been able to get some physical movement in while sitting at my desk job all day."
Cons:
"This is advertised for 'under the desk' use but unless your desk is up to your chin or your legs are the legs of a six year old... there is no way you can have this under a regular desk and pedal."
"It does not weigh enough to really stay put when using it, so I found myself constantly having to pull it back toward me in the chair."
"It moves around way too much, it isn’t smooth at all."
"It also constantly moves away from me even when placed on the provided mat."
"It is very light weight and therefore hard to pedal because it slips and slides."
"This thing cannot stay upright. Any amount of pedaling makes this thing flop all around."
"The item doesn't stay put. It tends to slide around on the floor, wobbles, is unstable, and the pedals don't turn smoothly at any resistance setting."
Performance and Use
Pros:
"It isn’t silent but the consistent sound becomes white noise after a while."
"We bought this for my 83 year old mother-in-law who used to be very active but is weak and fragile at this stage in her life."
"Absolutely love this thing! For the price, you can't beat it."
"I have using this mini bike since I received it...I do 5 mins 3x a day..sometimes 4x a day...morning..afternoon...evening...bedtime.I really like it. It helps my knees..legs..feet."
"Great for everyday use, especially if you sit a lot."
"I love this I use it everyday, it is easy and convenient, low impact for my knees and ankles."
"I absolutely love this. I don't walk in my neighborhood must because of the loose dogs and it's hot outside. This is perfect."
Cons:
"Purchased to support knee replacement rehab. Operation not smooth."
"I am recovering from spine surgery and wanted some additional physical therapy for my legs. When I used it, the pedaling was not smooth, it would catch every so often, making for a choppy workout."
"The gear action is so loose that the pedals constantly lock up."
"The tension is very light. I cannot get very much resistance."
"The motion movement is a bit jerky, and not a smooth 'ride' at all."
"The movements while rotating the pedals is very choppy and not fluid."
"It is so noisy! I was excited to use this under my desk while I work, but it squeaks like no other!"
Customer Service and Support
Pros:
"This was bought as a gift for my son. Sadly, it broke the 1st time he used it. However, it was quickly replaced with zero fuss and the 2nd one has been great!"
"UPDATE: After filing my complaint I received a message from the seller with a sincere apology. A few days later I received the promised replacement, which I was able to assemble quickly."
"I decided to return it, and the seller was great about that, and so I would definitely recommend the seller."
"They agreed to my returning the first machine, very easy to work with."
"The first product I received had a cracked. I returned it and was replaced in no time without a problem. I enjoy using it while watching TV so I’m kinda doing range of motion exercise and not just stagnant on my sofa. Happy to have it!"
"I purchased 3 of these bikes all at once. I love the product but one bike came with a broken foot bar towards the front and as such I am not able to use the bike."
"Bought this for my elderly mom. She enjoys using it which tells me she is moving her legs. It was a perfect Christmas gift."
Cons:
"Company doesn't seem to sell replacement parts on amazon or through their main website."
"Wouldn't recommend for anyone at this rate."
"The pedals wouldn't even move."
"Just received my bike and tried to screw left pedal but there is a big problem. Screw itself on the pedal is much bigger than hole to which suppose to be screw in. Absolutely useless until maybe seller will provide me with a new pedal."
"No customer support their emails bounce, phone just rings incessantly."
"I received item with NO BOLTS OR SCREWS to stabilize my product. CAN I HAVE the bolts and screws that’s suppose to come with my Item."
"I was sent this product with only the right pedal being able to be screwed in. The left pedal is stripped. The bike is also, VERY clearly been used as it has sticky residue and debris all over it."
