You’ll get a decent spec and a bigger machine for your money compared to many home ellipticals in this ‘mid’ price range. A bigger frame and heavier build make a big difference to lower impact machines like this – where wobbles can be a hazard. Of the 20 programs advertised, 12 are pre-set. Things like intervals, cardio and fat burning. You can use this machine on manual mode, set your own interval type program or even use it in recovery mode. This includes 4 for heart rate control and additional options for body fat. There is also the benefit of 4 separate user profiles, so different members of the same household can make the most of their experience. The biggest issue with this VIAVITO elliptical trainer appears to be in the assembly process and final build. There are many that put this together with few issues, because it isn’t that complicated with some patience and common sense. The only major negative came from someone unable to use the computer – pretty standard revenge / frustration one-star ranting… it is unclear whether this was an error with their machine, or whether they were luddites with fat fingers. Lets give them the benefit of the doubt, just this once!

James: "I really like how smooth it feels when I use this trainer, it's a lot like the one I use at gym actually. It's pretty quiet too. I'd say it's good for the price you pay, but I prefer using heavier, industrial style professional gym machines- personal preference really." Magnetic Resistance Technology: This trainer uses an innovative way of working, with 32 levels of AI controlled magnetic resistance! This machine is truly a show of the advancements in technology. Personalisable: We love how, compared to most other ellipticals on the market, this one allows you to store up to 4 user profiles, making it ideal for home use rather than commercial use. The benefit of using user profiles is the enhanced accuracy of workouts obtained by use of this machine.Finally, please do note that we are unable to deliver this item to Northern Ireland and also all UK Islands.

You’ll get a bigger unit than most home cross-trainers. This machine is 132cm x 55cm x 170cms. It weighs in at a solid 47kgs. This is bigger and more solid than most home ellipticals, though not the same size as those you’ll find in commercial gyms (which cost from 3x to 5x more).

Where is really stands out is in the flexibility of the computer console. 12 pre-set, 8 other options, 4 separate users and the usual displays are all standard. If you supply your own heart-rate monitor, this will work with the computer console too. This is all achieved on a fitness machine that values the idea of low impact workouts. This is interesting for all those that are less able, or simply want to look after their joints a little better.Overall, this is a pretty good home workout machine with a strong series of workout options that will lead to the right results. We tested this trainer out and collated the best characteristics and winning features into the list below- the main strength points of this trainer: This cements the idea that this is for a more gentle pace and low-impact work, which may not suit all users.
