LifeSpan Fitness EL3000i Elliptical Trainer

Enjoy the benefits of a total body workout with little impact on your joints and back with the LifeSpan Fitness EL3000i elliptical trainer. Outfitted with a 20-inch stride length and narrow pedal spacing, the EL3000i supports your natural walking motion, with converging handlebars that let your arms flow naturally and with a greater range of motion as you exercise. For added comfort, the space between the treadmill’s handlebars narrows as you extend your arms forward and then widens as you swing them by your side. And users will love the blue gel pad in each pedal, which is designed to absorb the impact from your heel. The pads provide ample cushioning to make your elliptical exercise more comfortable, yet safe for your hips, (more…)

    Bought my LifeSpan elliptical over a month ago. Delivered timely. Had a small leveling issue during assembly but now feels solid, no problems at all. Very smooth and fluid motion, and arm and leg movement is comfortable. Comes with a cool USB feature and LifeSpan Fitness Club membership. I save my workout data then upload it to my online account. On any given day or week I can see how long I exercised, how far I went, how many calories I burned and what my heart rate was doing. I also manually enter data from exercise I do outdoors, as well as track some vital stats like my weight, cholesterol, and blood pressure all in my account. I feel better and my account data shows it. A few more options would be great and LifeSpan said they’re working on adding some new features (as you’d expect with any software program).
    Overall, I’m pleased with my elliptical purchase and with the performance of the machine.

    I absolutely love my elliptical! It has everything I wanted AND more.

    PRO’s:
    #1 – The USB feature with the free USB drive and membership is awesome! I read this in the text but it was not clear to me exactly what it was BUT you insert the USB drive into the console and the elliptical saves my exercise information and then lets it upload to my personalized account…REALLY cool to track your exercises and progress and it has other cool tools to keep me motivated!

    #2 – The handlebars don’t just go front to back in a straight line like the others do…this one goes in on an angle—they call it converging path—either way I feel like it works my arms better and feels better versus just a pulling and pushing motion.

    #3 – The cushion built into the pedal is really nice and helps with the pain in my knees

    CON’s:
    #1 – There are a couple of covers that snap together to cover bolts. The idea is very good because I did not have to use tools to assemble that part but the one tab broke and did not stay tight. I did call Amazon customer service and it was handled promptly

    I could not be happier with my purchase and would recommend this to anyone!

    I bought this elliptical at the beginning of June and took advantage of the special offers from Amazon. This is my first big (physically and money) purchase but I was very impressed with the Elliptical machine and Amazon delivery team. I ordered it on Sunday and got a call from Eaqle the delivery company on Thursday and it was delivered on Friday. The Elliptical Machine was pretty easy to assemble my husband said and is simple to use. Cool feature is the buttons blink telling you what to push next to either do a program or start, VERY simple! It is very well built and comfortable. I am 5’3″ and my husband is 6’1″ (he tried it when I first got it and says he will use it but I doubt it!) but it feels good for both of us. I am/was a runner but the discomfort in my knees led me to research elliptical trainers to lessen the impact. I came across this model because of the pedal suspension, I have noticed a difference in the lack of pain after my workouts and am able to cross train about 25 minutes at a time 4 days a week…I typically would go for an hour run but have not worked up to that duration on the elliptical yet. I have only owned / used this for about 3 weeks so I can’t speak to the long term durability but so far so good. I would recommend this product and Amazon for making this and other large appliance purchases based on my experience so far.
