Sunny Health: Discover Your Fitness Potential

Works well if you’re seated but fairly useless as a standing elliptical
TLDR: great to use under your desk, terrible as a standing elliptical.Pros:1. Pretty quiet (not silent but definitely not disruptive)2. Fairly lightweight and portable – small for an elliptical but still not something you’d want to lug around everywhere3. Super easy to change the resistance4. Arrived already assembled5. I’ve been using it for months with nothing breaking6. It has pads on the bottom so you won’t scratch up the floor moving itCons:1. Stride is incredibly short and kind of shallow so even a short person can’t safely use this while standing.2. I wish there was an option to increase the resistance even more but honestly that’s not a huge dealI gave this 4 stars because it works super well for what I needed but doesn’t do everything it promised to do because it’s completely unusable as a standing elliptical. I planned to use it for keeping my legs moving while I’m sitting at work all day. It works great if you’re seated and has helped me remember to sit with better posture. It also seems to help the circulation in my legs (sometimes my feet start to fall asleep if I’m sitting for too long) because I can mindlessly use my elliptical while I work. It’s very quiet and I’ve been able to use it during zoom meetings without issues. It is loud enough that someone sitting in your office with you would be able to hear a whirring sound, but it’s honestly really unobtrusive and I haven’t had anyone complain once they ask what the sound is and I explain.I love that you can easily change the resistance and that I can pick it up to move it to different rooms of the office or even take it home if I’m working from home. I’ve also seen that some people put this on a table and use it for their arms. I have no desire to do that but I’m sure it would work fine for that purpose.However, if you’re looking for an elliptical with a small footprint to use while standing, please save yourself the money and hassle because this will not work. I’m fairly short (5’3) and the stride on this thing is so short that it hurts my shins after less than a minute if I’m standing. I suggest looking into a different brand with a longer stride and probably handlebars if you want to use it while standing. I have good balance and I’m pretty small but the unnatural stride makes me feel unsteady.

Definitely not for heavier folks or tall people.
This isn’t terribly made but it feels more like a stair stepper then an elliptical. Definitely not low impact and not good for folks with any disabilities. I use an elliptical because I have sciatica, fibromyalgia, and am newly recovering from a fractured ankle. This thing is just not gentle due to the low stride length. Further it claims it can support 300lbs. I am 230lbs and this thing starts to wobble off the floor of I do more then a slow crawl. Definitely not safe for us bigger folks. I’m 5’5″ and the max height was just right so anyone taller I’d shop elsewhere.Basically unless your under 5’6″, have no mobility issues and weigh under 200lbs it’s probably best to look elsewhere.

I’ve used it for under desk exercises only ( never stood on ), however after two weeks of use and during the exercise at level 3 a washer fall of and the paddling arm become lose and started to make lots of noise. Considering the high label price for this item it should have been premium quality and heavy duty. I’m totally unsatisfied.

The quality is very poor, I do not recommend it. It also feels unsafe.

Love it
