Foldable Air Walk Elliptical, 30" inch Long Stride Full-Body Cardio Cross Trainer Glide Exercise for Home Office, SunnyFit App via Bluetooth with Optional Adjustable Resistance

Great exercise machine. Low impact, no stress on the knees, easy glide, you can feel it working your arms and legs, and it’s a quiet work out. No noise. The machine itself was simple to put together, and folding is easy. It doesn’t take up a lot of space so often, I don’t bother folding it. Just love the ease of this machine, I’ll be in shape in no time! Just love it! Thank you Sunny!

I've never been athletic, plus exercise must be minimally fun for me to stay with it. I wanted something to keep near my 'work station' in my home office, and that would allow 'no excuses' as far as weather, time of day, etc.. I had gotten out of shape and wanted something low impact (old knee, back and neck injuries) but effective enough to get me back to a decent level of fitness. The Sunny Air Walk Trainer is exactly what I was looking for. Took me about 10 minutes to assemble, was easy to do, machine seems very well constructed and sturdy. So far, I find it doesn't make any noise and operates smoothly. Note if you are short: I am just under 5 feet tall... I temporarily put the 'abdominal pad' in place, and got on the Trainer. The pad, at its lowest setting, hit my upper chest! Needless to say, I left the pad off. Seems like I would have had less freedom of movement with it on anyway, and I don't feel at all unstable without it. I work at home and have the Air Walk Trainer set up in my office. I do 12 minutes while watching a video on the computer while I'm exercising. I plan on working up to 20 minutes a day. Being 55 and sitting way too much for work, I started having a timer on my computer go off every 11 minutes whereupon I stand up and move around for a minute. This habit has made a big difference in how my joints and muscles feel at the end of the day. But now, my minute of 'moving around' is jumping back on the Air Walk Trainer for a minute (I use the timer on the computer that comes with the Trainer, which btw, seems to work fine). Sometimes I'll do 2-3 minutes... I find I just want to keep going. Doing this 5 times per hour, I get in quite a few more minutes of exercise by the end of the work day. For the money, this is a pretty awesome little machine that takes up very little space and does the job for someone my age (55), weight (115) and fitness level (medium low but now going up!). Some years back I had a Gazelle Elite which was okay... but it took up 2-3 times the space, the stride was too long for me, and the pedals were too far apart, causing hip pain. The Sunny Air Walk Trainer is just the right size for me. I love this thing! I had been walking outside but I definitely get a much better 'burn' and workout with the Air Walk Trainer. I'm convinced it's worth every penny and more, and that it give me a routine I can stick with on a daily basis!

I bought this, willing to take the chance because of the low price, but not expecting much. I wanted a machine I could use at home, something like the elliptical I use at the gym. But home ellipticals are too big for my place. After reading the reviews here, I decided to try the Air Walker. Turns out, it is better than I expected. It was super easy to put together. I didn't need help, and it took all of 5 or 10 minutes. Like one of the other reviewers, I didn't like the stomach pad. It's just a nuisance and doesn't seem to do anything. Once that was off, I felt free to move in a nice stride. Though the center does wobble a little, I can tell it's simply from the movement, and it's minor. The machine is absolutely silent, and the movement free and smooth. This is a no-impact workout. My only complaint is that it's a bit too easy. I find though that I can go as fast or slow as I want, and by either leaning forward or backward, I can change which muscles I'm using most. I'm also finding I can adjust the main work load from arms to legs, or use them evenly. What would be a nice improvement would be some kind of resistance adjustment. But as is I do get a good workout, and spend 45 minutes to an hour on it daily. This allows me to cancel my gym membership, as I also have dumbbells I use at home. The machine sits nicely in the corner of my bedroom, as it has a low foot print and about a 14-17 inch stride, which is perfect for me. I'm happy I bought it. It seems well made. So I'll see how long it lasts with daily use. UPDATE- June 22 After only a month of every day use, I have found I just don't get the workout I need on this walker. I ordered the Schwinn 450, which is giving me a great workout, and I'm keeping the airwalker for back-up, or to use while watching TV. The airwalker still works fine, but I just don't get a workout on it. It was be nice if it had some kind of resistance that could be applied. Also, the straight odd motion seems to give me a bit of a lower back ache. I didn't realize that was what my ache was from until I switched the the elliptical which allows for natural leg movement.

The Airwalker is easy to assemble and it takes little space in your home. Its also a sturdy piece of exercise equipment. Im recovering from the 5th Back surgery. The surgeries left me with chronic pain, muscle atrophy and the inability to workout at the gym. After reviewing many pieces of exercise equipment, the Sunny Airwalker appeared to be the safest equipment for me. After 2 weeks of working out, I'm up to 20 mins a day. The Airwalker has given me back the ability to workout. Thank you Airwalker!

If you can afford a more expensive machine, buy one. However, you probably wouldn't be reading this review if you could afford something fancy. I paid less than $100 for this and I expect to get at least that amount of use out of it. I'm 5'8" and the step is a little short for me, but good enough to use for short periods of time. If you're shorter, this might work better for you. If you're taller, I don't know if you'll need a longer step. I bought this to have a standing indoor exercise option to go with my rowing machine and exercise bike, because my seat was getting sore from too much sitting. Now I can switch back and forth. However, I can't see myself using this for long periods of time. I'm using this machine only with the handles, not with the abdomen support piece or the little electronic monitor thing. The handles were easy to put on, but I wasn't able to tighten them enough with the little wrench that is provided with the kit. They still rattled, so I ended up using a longer wrench with more leverage. No extra tools are technically required, but you might benefit from getting a better wrench. The wrenches I bought were "Crescent 10 Pc. 12 Point Metric Combination Wrench Set - CCWS3," and if I remember right, the one that fits the handlebar bolts is #13. The instructions for putting it together are very detailed, in clear English with diagrams, and were fairly easy to figure out though I'm not very mechanical. It took me a bit of time, puzzling over the diagrams, to figure out what parts they were talking about. If you're new to putting together these kits, note that to get bolts properly tight, you need to partially tighten one bolt, then partially tighten the other, alternating back and forth until both are tight and neither one moves. That is a tip that was taught to me by a tool savvy person. If you try to tighten one bolt all the way, then tighten the other bolt all the way, that is not only bad for the life expectancy of the parts, but also causes the part to come loose, which will cause rattling noises and safety issues. Wearing cotton gloves from the hardware store makes it more comfortable to use the wrench, which digs into your palms otherwise. The tool included in the kit does not have a comfortable grip. Gloves, and therefore lack of pain when using the wrench, enables you to get the bolts tighter. However, don't tighten too much, or you'll strip the bolt! Stripping the bolt means the parts are damaged and can no longer be tightened, and the whole machine will no longer be usable. That's why you want to alternate back and forth, until you can't turn either bolt with a reasonable push. This process is not difficult, but I've noticed that assembly instructions for kits like this never give people that advice, and I think it would be frustrating not to know it. One thing you should know is that the little electronic monitor runs on an old-fashioned battery, I think AAA or smaller, and not the smaller, more long-lasting battery that powers most modern electronic devices. I don't plan to use the monitor anyway, so that's a non-issue for me. With the bolts properly tightened, the machine seems sturdy. There's a very small amount of noise. I'll be playing music anyway. I don't want to guess how long this will hold up, but like I said, I think I'll get $100 worth of exercise out of it. It takes up even less room than I expected from reading the description. I have hardwood floors, and so far it has not rocked or slid, though they recommend using a mat. I was somewhat hoping to use it without holding onto the handles, but without also breaking my neck. Doing that is NOT recommended by the company! If you have sufficient core strength, maybe that will work, but you wouldn't want to fall off the pedals. After a few steps, I ended up grabbing the handles again for stability. If you don't want a machine where you have to hold the handles, this is probably not the machine for you. If something majorly goes wrong or changes, I'll try to remember to update this review. I've just finished putting it together, and wanted to review it while the experience was still fresh in my mind.

I'm here to tell you my story in hopes that it will help you make a better informed decision about purchasing this machine. Hopefully this review will help you! ;) So, I had been using this machine for 3 months thinking to myself that it was too good to be true. I kept thinking that something terrible was going to happen because of how excellent this machine was compared to how much I paid for it. It really (really, really) gives a great workout, it doesn't take up a lot of space, and it's really quiet. Keep some WD-40 nearby because it will probably start to squeak after prolonged use, but other than that I had absolutely no complaints. On the contrary, I thought it was one of the greatest investments I had made in my life. If you find that the workout starts becoming too easy, change it up. I read some other reviewers who said adding a bungee cord for resistance really helps, but when I started feeling like it was getting too easy, I started squatting slightly while using the machine. You really start to feel the burn again, trust me! If you're feeling any pain in your back, adjust your posture and you'll be fine. Aaaanyway, so fast forward 3 months and it turns out I was partially right about it being too good to be true because after 3 months of use, part of the metal on the foot pedal cracked so the pedal was basically coming apart, rendering the machine unusable. I had been using it about 6 days a week for about 30 minutes a day without a hitch until it cracked. I followed all of the safety guidelines and never got anywhere near the weight limit so I was super bummed about it. After contacting the manufacturer to see if there was any warranty, I was really pleased to receive a quick response. Turns out the machine only comes with a 90-day manufacturer warranty and I was just past that time period (just my luck). But the customer service rep was extremely helpful and nice (her name was Jade so keep an eye out for her ;) ) and next thing I know they were shipping me a replacement part, free of charge. All I had to do was show proof of purchase and a couple pictures of the broken part. Don't get too excited now, because it was EXTREMELY difficult to switch out the part on my own. I gave up a few times and then went back to try again and finally, a few days later, and after almost chopping a finger off with a wayward tool, I was able to take the darn foot pedal apart and put the new piece on. If you have power tools, I would assume it wouldn't be a big deal, but I, sadly, do not. But you know what they say, no pain no gain! And, after all, I didn't have to spend a dime to fix it. And it's good as new now! If you're going back and forth on whether to purchase this and the reviews are giving you mixed feelings about it, my (self-appointed) expert opinion is that you should get it! The cost benefit ratio of this purchase is pretty outstanding. Comparing it to, say, purchasing a gym membership, it's pretty much a no-brainer for me. I know I just went through a whole story about how mine broke, but it really is a sturdy and durable machine, overall. My advice is to get the SquareTrade Warranty that Amazon offers with it because then you don't have to worry about a thing. I wish I would have done that in the first place but oh well. Hope my story helped!! -Alex

I've been thinking about getting an elliptical for home use for quite a while now. After a lot of research and a nice tax refund, I finally decided to pick this one up. It's a little hard to find reviews for it, but I was hoping that the fact that it wasn't completely cheap (you can find ellipticals for less than a third of the price of this one - sure, they're probably going to break your leg when they decide to fall apart, but they're there) would mean it was going to be worth it; after all, I'm 6'3" and needed to find one that had a longer stride length. Now comes the fun. The first problem occurred when UPS sent me an alert on the day of delivery, stating that they damaged the box, but that they were still going to deliver it. Of course, it never arrived. Amazon's consistently great customer service helped me immediately and shipped out another one for no extra charge, at least. So, almost two weeks after I originally ordered this (with Prime), it arrives on my doorstep looking like it tried to tear apart the box in a desperate attempt to get free (there were actual parts of the elliptical completely exposed). I'm really impressed with the UPS driver, who somehow managed to lug this thing to my doorstep on his own - it's heavy. Really, really heavy. Which probably explains why the box was so torn up, now that I think about it. Regardless, figuring I had nothing to lose but time if it was damaged, I put it together. It took me at least an hour or so, but the finished product looked good. Of course, I jump right on and notice that it makes a grinding, rumbling sound whenever the flywheel moves (and yes, I made sure to remove the wood block and lessen the tension). Awesome. Amazon unsurprisingly wants me to disassemble it and ship it back before they refund me, and when I showed them how badly damaged the box was upon delivery, they told me to put it in another box. Call me crazy, but where am I going to find a box big enough for this without going to a specialty store and paying a fortune? Instead, I'm putting it back in the original and trying my best to Frankenstein it into something that will survive the trip back home. A one star review may sound harsh, but this is exercise equipment - it either works or it doesn't. And this doesn't. Oh, and one of the handles flew off and hit me square on the head when I was taking it apart in what was likely a final act of defiance from this blasted thing. I'm basically out three or four hours of my life and a LOT of packaging tape and have nothing to show for it. Learn from my mistakes.

Nice machine for at home workout. Small so fits in small places. Easy to put together. Had one small problem but customer service was on top of it and fixed the issue quickly. Would recommend to anyone just starting out or for those just wanting a little extra at home.
