Niceday Elliptical Exercise Machine for Your Home Fitness

Exceeded my expectations
This review pertains to the ‘Niceday’ Elliptical Exercise Machine with 19″ stride, Model CT11-19 for $800. The box arrived in good condition with several dings in it. The interior packaging of the box cushioned each individual part very well so there was not even a scratch of damage.It took over an hour to unpack it and discard all the packaging and about 2 hours to assembly it. The assembly was very easy, but I took it slowly to make sure it was done right. Every part was well labeled in the manual. They even included two wrenches, so all I needed to add was my Phillips head screw driver.I was impressed by the quality of the hardware and the parts. This is well made. Once assembled it was very stable, and the operation was whisper quiet and smooth. It does come with a simple control panel to monitor time, heart rate, etc. I love that it is simple. Some machines you need a degree in computer science to figure out. Not this one – very easy to use. Plus, it needs no wires and no electricity. The control panel runs on 2-each AA batteries. A simple knob adjusts 16 levels of tension – the control panel is not needed for that. To top it off, it weighs 125 pounds, so it is easy to move via the front two wheels.I specifically wanted the 19” stride. I am 5’ 8” 170 pounds. Smaller strides (15” to 18”) are not as effective and are awkward to use unless your body is smaller than mine. This unit supports a person up to 400 pounds and 6’6” tall.If you need an adjustable incline, this does not adjust. You will need to spend about $500 more to get that feature made by some other manufacturer. I am more price conscious and can easily do without the incline.The base is 42” long x 20” wide. The legs swing an additional 12” to the front and 6” to the rear. The handle height is 63”.To top it off this company offers Lifetime service for assistance & parts. Their phone, email, and physical address is on their website, https://nicedaymoves.com at the bottom of the page.In conclusion, I love this unit and would buy this again in a heartbeat. It is very gratifying when a company does everything right.

Worth Price for non-Electric
This might be a bit long but I want to provide as much info as possible when spending $1000. Let me start by saying I’ve always worked out on high-end Precor machines in my community center until I moved. I lost 200lbs in 5 years and have gained back 100 and needed the workout machine that helped me on my journey to being fit. I can’t afford a $3000-$5000 machine. I’m currently 5’4” and 300lbs. Things I like: Price. For my height the stride is great. It’s stable, not wobbly and I’ve been using it for about 6 weeks, 3x per week. I have arthritic knees and hips, which is why the impact of an elliptical works best for me. I have wide feet and the pedals are comfortable. I like the fact you can peddle backwards. The arms cannot be stabilized and so always move with motion, but you don’t have to use them. I use it in my basement with low ceilings and my husband who is 6’ would bump his head on the ceiling if he used it. I would recommend anyone taller to have at least 10’ ceilings or you may find the ceiling to close for comfort. As you can see from the picture it fits nicely in a smaller space. It’s also easily movable. It took my husband 4 hours on and off to put it together. I appreciate there fact I did not need to pay for assembly. The large box is awkward so you may need help moving it by yourself. Currently the parts operate smoothly, no noise. The distance, time, and speed metrics seem accurate. See pictures.What I don’t like: The monitor screen is light and hard to read unless I have a bright light on. The calorie counter is not accurate. I worked out for 35 minutes, my watch said I burned 300 cals and the machine said I burned 37…that’s not possible. The movable arms do not have the heart rate monitoring, so you have to change your workout and use the non-moving handles to check your heart rate and it takes too long to track as it starts low and slowly builds every time. The amount of time it takes seems unreasonable, and definitely what I like least, but my watch handles these metrics and so it’s not a big deal. I did a lot of research and chose the rear-drive over the front drive to hopefully work my glutes more than my quads, but I still feel like my quads take the load of the stride.Overall for the price, length of stride, a non-electric model, it works well as long as you are not counting on it for accurate metrics. For my purposes, a solid convenient workout, I would buy it again.

GREAT ELYPTICAL 🤗
This elliptical machine is fantastic!! It is quiet as advertised and runs smoothly. Set up may take 1 to 2 hours depending on how skillful you are. But I absolutely love this product and it works well for me. It helps me to stay fit and motivated to move. It is high quality and durable! I highly recommend it I can meet!
