Folding Pedal Exerciser, Mini Exercise Bike Under Desk Bike Foot Pedal Exerciser, Foot Hand Cycle Portable Peddler Machine Bicycle Exerciser Arm Leg Exerciser While Sitting

small and effective
I had my left knee replaced in October, 2022 at age 67. I tried to use my full-sized recumbent exercise bike to maintain the flexibility at home instead of traveling 16 miles each way to therapy sessions, but the length of the bars on which the pedals are mounted was too long for me to be able to bend my knee. completely.I got this small cycling machine to be able to do those daily exercises, and it is working quite well. I probably have enough mobility be able to use the full-sized bike again; but this is so convenient where I can exercise in my bedroom while on the computer doing remote bookkeeping for a few clients. It easily folds up to be able to store out of the way when not in use. The grip pad included prevents the device from moving around.My sister’s knees are degrading also, and she was going to therapy sessions twice weekly. She lives remotely in Missouri and had to travel 30 miles each way for the sessions. She was adamant that she wasn’t going through knee replacement. (Trust me the replacement is very difficult to go through!) I got one of these for her. It worked well enough that she is doing therapy at home and no longer has to attend a professional therapy session. She uses it for 5 minutes, 3 times daily. Along with a yoga strap I got her at the same time, she has so far staved off knee replacement and stated that she has better mobility than before. She’s 73 and still going strong.This has an adjustable tension resistance, but I recommend not using that feature. It can make noise and probably causes wear inside. The cycling motion without resistance is still very effective–especially when you’re older like us and don’t get adequate exercise by other means. It’s effective, inexpensive, and convenient, which are all important factors when you have limited income. I don’t use the included timer or the tension knob, but those features are there if you want to use them.I highly recommend getting this unit even if you don’t have the same issues as my sister and me. I also recommend getting a yoga strap and following the other exercises included with that strap. It’s a way to get some quality exercise without having to leave the safety of your home.

Does the job but not great quality
Pros: no assembly required and is pretty compact, better than buying a whole exercise bike. My legs did get a pretty good workout- I used it for range of motion after hip surgery. Good price- especially since I bought the Iike new option!Cons: moves around a lot even when on carpet, it doesn’t pedal super smoothly, very hard to adjust the straps for pedaling but it does come pre set to the largest size so if you have bigger feet or wear gym shoes you’ll be fine.Overall, it’s a good deal for someone like me who will only need it a few months. May be a good option for exercise in the winter months when it’s hard to get outside.

Nice bike for exercise
Very portable. I use mine under my computer desk and pedal while I’m doing things online. Very easy to use and I can squeeze in some exercise easily.

Cheap, Poor Quality
The only good things about this unit are that it is easy to assemble—you simply unfold the legs—and that the color is pretty.The unit is cheap, very cheap. It’s not sturdy and wobbles from side to side when you pedal. It also makes an unfortunate clicking noise when you pedal, which makes it inappropriate for use in a quiet office or even at home with others around. There is also no resistance, so it’s virtually useless. However, the most annoying thing is that the pedals do not stay upright, so you have to hold them in position every single time you want to put your foot on them.Overall, this is virtually useless – it’s poorly made and does not work properly out of the box. It’s just not worth the time and money to have it delivered, only to pack it back up and bring it to the UPS Store to return it.

good to buy

 First of all, thank you for the quality packing and early delivery which is the satisfying factor with this purchase. Unfortunately I am slightly worried with the quality of the product. I ordered it twice, as the first one was a defective piece and to my surprise the second one was also a defective piece. First one was having a disconnected and hanging display. I tried to put it in the slot and I couldn’t. Also there wasn’t any user manual on how to use and the functions of the timer key and its display. I opted for replacement as soon as I opened and checked the product. The replaced product was a completely low quality one. Fortunately it comes with a user manual, a piece of printed paper however it covers the functions and display unit details. But the knob/screw to tight the pedal movement actually SCREWED. Because it cannot screwed upto a certain level. The reason being the hole for the knob is manufactured wrongly and you cannot insert the knob completely inside the hole. I tried to fix it my own, for me this was an urgent need so I decided to see whether i can fix it and to my surpirse i have seen that the tightening screw is already faulty. The grip on the top of the screw is broken, which clearly shows that its been used by someone or the retailer didn’t give more attention to the product beforr sending. A quality check is missing here completely. Its ok to have mistakes, but when you return something and opted for a replacement, extra care is expected by the customer and here I couldn’t find it. Please take care of this in the future. Remember this is a health equipment and most of the people need it for their urgent need, especially for recovery after accident or other health issues. Compromising the quality of such an equipment doesn’t make the customer happy. Please consider this seriously and do a proper quality check prior to the delivery (be it first delivery or replacement delivery)Thank you.I have added pictures and videos of the replacement product for your reference.NB: I am not claiming this is a worst product, I didn’t get a chance to try it. I have chosen the product seeing the good reviews. This may be an off case and you may decide to show this in the product review or not, but you should be mindful to consider this feedback while delivering the product to the next customer.
