Comments on: How to Buy an Aerobic Fitness Machine

on 1/28/2008 I Have just spent 400 dollars on a Gold's Gym StrideTrainer 500 and I am afraid to open it. I am scared that it is going to fall apart. I am trying to lose weight and I wanted to add a consistant exercise to my diet. I weigh about 268 and would love to lose at least 60 pounds. It is supposed to have a weight capacity of 275lb but, I am hearing about how the cheaper models fall apart and now I am ready to take it back. Now, I would be happy if this machine would at least give me a year and a half of wear. If not, I want to take it back as soon as I can and just wait until I can afford something more durable. HELP!

on 11/22/2005 I've been extremely impressed with the Nautilus suite of products. They own Stairmaster, Bowflex, and Schwinn Fitness (among other high-quality products for both commercial use and for us retail at-homers).
