Stepper Machine with Resistance Bands, Mini Stepper with 300LBS Weight Capacity, Twist Stepper for Full Body Workout, Adjustable Step Height, Smooth and Quiet, Step Machine for Men Women

We weren't sure which stepper to get but read reviews and purchased this one since my wife's and my needs are quite different. We wanted one that we could both use without much trouble or adjusting. This one works great for both of us since the "adjustment" is really no physical knob adjustment but the adjustment or tension is all up to the user's individual strength and abilities: how hard and far down you can push the pedals and how fast you can do it. For those with less strength, the pedals are pushed down only a little and only as fast as they can. For those more fit and with strength, the pedals are pushed down with the feet all of the way and the speed can be increased for intensity. Works great - no knobs to adjust.For instance: My wife is petite and has a previous knee injury. When she started using it she could only do about 10 steps with each leg and could only push the pedals down part way - which is how it is designed for those with less strength. (As previously mentioned, there are no knobs for adjusting the tension - it is the user's own strength and endurance that determines that - a nice feature so that young, old and even the fit can use it.) At first she used her toes for leverage but after using it for one week she could do 50 steps with both legs and now she sometimes does it twice a day and can do 100 or more. It is definitely helping her build leg muscles without stressing her knees. She really likes the slight side-to-side motion which is more natural than the straight up-and-down motion. It is also a great work out for me since I can push the pedals down all of the way, step faster and longer.The counter is a nice added feature and easy to operate. Nothing crazy to operate - nor is it necessary to use the machine. Just get on and start pumping/stepping. Our legs get a good workout in a very short amount of time.Although the safety handle bar is a little too low for me - it is highly recommended for safety purposes - especially if you are older, weak or have any health or balance issues. It never hurts to have it for reassurance. Also the counter is on the handle bar. We do not use the arm straps.We are very happy we bought this one. Worth the extra money as it is built well and works well for all fitness levels and abilities.

I’m an online teacher and am at my desk for looong periods of time, and this stepper (which I’ve had for about 6 months now) is perfect for me while I teach, while I’m in meetings, while I’m going through emails, etc. Obviously, I don’t go hard core on this so I’m out of breath while talking for meetings, but this ensures that I stay active with low-impact.Also, I’ve tried other steppers, but those would hurt my knees because they were too narrow and didn’t fan out like this stepper excellently does!It’s easy to assemble and fits under a desk very easily.One con would be that it does squeak occasionally, but it just needs WD40 probably once a month and it’s good.👍

I was able to get this together, but it was more by figuring it out for myself than their instructions.For others who purchase this, be aware that the "Connecting Wire" they reference is tucked into one of the upright posts. You have to shake it out, then you can attach the twist tie wire to it and thread it through the other stand post. Also, all the bolts and washers are located in the holes already (take them out to assemble). This was also a bit confusing since usually all the hardware comes in a separate little bag. It took me awhile to find them as I kept looking in the packing box!Other than that, it went fairly well - pretty logical where everything goes.There really aren't much in the way of instructions for using, so in my case, I plan to start out very slowly on the easiest resistance and work up. So far, it has given me a nice little workout, so I'm glad I got it! Seems to be sturdy and well made.

Do this 30-45 min a day, 4-5x a week with diet & 10 min abs & stretch. You will look amazing. This one is great because the step height adjustable and it can go up pretty high which elongates leg muscles which is great for shorter women like me. This is my 3rd! mini stepper from Amazon. 1st one broke after 18 months. 2nd one broke too! This one seems to be made well and does not have the mechanisms that broke on the others. I only used it once but so far it's very quiet compared to the others. My only complaints, I am petite & I prefer to exercise barefoot; the pedals are very large & have hard plastic traction all over them. The calorie counter feature is not at all accurate, don't trust it. Would stilly highly recommend this stepper to anyone. Great workout. My favorite home machine!

I enjoy my stepper every day

The media could not be loaded. This stepper machine is a complete fit for me! It is quiet when I exercise and does not take up space. I can definitely keep this in my small apartment. And a HUGE plus for this product is that the instructions for product assembly are clear and easy to follow. It arrived very quickly, with all the components there, and in excellent condition. While the equipment is solid and sturdy, which made me comfortable and balanced on it, the weight height of the steps is also adjustable, making my workout so much more accommodating. I really feel my legs just after a 20-to-30-minute workout. Btw, I think the weight capacity is 300 lbs, and I'm 110 lbs and 5.3ft tall. It also comes with pull bands, adding variety to my workout. The sensor that it comes with is also so convenient for me to track the calories and the time I exercise. Overall, I have such a nice experience!
