I currently have a treadmill however my knees having been in pain due to running. I've been considering buying an elliptical machine but not familiar with what is out there. Any suggestions on which ones to get and at a good price would be helpful. Thank you.:flowerforyou:

    I have an Octane. I bought it 3-4 years ago and I am very happy with it. It is in the pricey range though.

    We have a Sole E35 ( its probably about 5 years old) and it is so smooth! I like it better than the ones at my gym. And its quiet. :)
  • Proform 14.0 ce Elliptical...about $800. It's really nice. Only thing I don't like is the fan - not much cooling in that aspect but otherwise great piece of equipment

    I have a Proform i Series one. We bought it about 4-5 years ago. I love it, but it does triple my actual calorie burn according to my HRM. I love ellipticals and would get another one when this one dies or one of the tread climbers.

    Go to where you can try them out. Different ones have different strides. The one I REALLY wanted (because it folded up) hurt my knees, so I went with the one that didn't.

    You kind of have to figure it out on your own because what works for one person may not work for you.
