    Wut do you want to spend? Where are you located? My wife and I have one and we love it. It's expensive though but we get work out of it. Oh and I'm a big man too so the "poundage" is suitable for heavy people.

    Hi,
    I love my elliptical! I have a life fitness. The only advice I can say is go out and try them all and find one that feels comfortable. If they don't let you try it I would go somewhere else. The different models feel different. When I was shopping the ones I could afford all felt not to stable when I tried them. I did not feel I would be good for a long work out. It took a few months but I found a used one for $500, originally $4000. I love it, it is stable, the stride adjusts, etc.
    Good luck,
    Marlene

    Make certain that your shoulders and your knees can deal with that type of exercise. Test one out for an hour at a fitness center.
