Exerpeutic 900XL 300 lbs. Weight Capacity Recumbent Exercise Bike with Pulse

This is my second purchase of an Exerpeutic recumbent bike. (I previously bought a very similar model about 5 years ago, and my spouse and I have both used it every couple of days without any problems.) I purchased this current model, Exerpeutic 900XL, for our second home based on the great experience we had with the one we previously purchased.In both cases, the assembly process took an hour or two. It can be managed by one moderately strong person, but be aware that when the box initially arrives at your home you'll likely need two people to carry it to the spot where you'll be setting up. There are a LOT of big and little parts, but if you are methodical and read each step carefully and take your time, in the end you'll have a very reliable bike. The instructions are written in easy-to-understand English (with the exception of a couple of words that puzzled me, but nothing that interfered with assembly). Be aware: you'll be using an (included) Allen wrench during assembly, and also a combination wrench/screwdriver device they include. There is nothing that you'll need in order to assemble this bike that isn't included in the box, which I appreciate.I like that the Exerpeutic 900XL has a little lip on the console where you can rest your tablet (to distract yourself with Netflix if you're so inclined).The console rotates through different sets of information (elapsed time, heart rate, etc.). If you want it to stay on one rather than rotating, like my preference to keep it on the time setting, just press the "mode" button for about a second and the current screen will become fixed (that is, the screen stops rotating between different sets of info).My spouse and I both find the seat very comfortable. The seat positioning is easy to adjust. The tension knobs offers many options, from very low resistance (1) to highest (8).I have neck issues that make it hard for me to use a regular bike or a spin bike. With this recumbent bike, I'm able to maintain a neutral posture that allows me to keep my chin tucked in and puts zero strain on my neck muscles. It's delightful.If you need to relocate the bike, you just lift the back of the bike (which is not too heavy; most of the weight is at the front) and tip it forward. Then you can use the small wheels on the front of the bike to wheel it around.For the price, this is a surprisingly excellent piece of equipment. I have no complaints and in fact I'm so happy I bought the same brand a second time!

Good value for the money. It will get the job done for the average person. I think if you’re a hardcore athlete it probably won’t meet your needs.The instructions were clear and easy to follow. The bike is packaged well within the shipping box and all the parts were securely included.The assembly was straightforward. The bike was manufactured so that all of the parts fit together very easily which is not always the case.The ride is super smooth and there’s more than enough tension to raise one’s heart rate. True, the seat is firm, but if you have extra cushion it shouldn’t bother you.The price is super nice! I got mine during Prime Day in July and it was $100 less than the current price. It might go on sale again around Cyber Monday?The only “negative” is the panel that holds the batteries for the display doesn’t fit / stay at in place. The display is basic and fits my needs. I don’t use the Bluetooth app so I can’t comment on that. I can’t get the pulse meter to engage on the display but I don’t care about that bc my watch tracks that. It keeps elapsed time and distance which is all I care about. It also tracks calories burned and speed.If you’re expecting Peloton quality this isn’t that type of bike. This is a well made basic recumbent bike that can easily support someone under 300 pounds and give a good workout. I see myself keeping this bike for many years to come. If this fits your needs consider purchasing this bike.

So far, I have spent 4 - 6 hours on assembly and the ding dang thing is still not put together! So frustrated! I am usually pretty good at putting these type of things together, but this is about to eat my lunch! I have even lloked for assembly videos and can't find any for this particular bike. Going back to it now and hope to have it put together before bedtime on this, day3 of assembly.

Have not he it for long—basic device, which is kinda good (so basic you don’t even plug it in). Instructions pretty easy to follow and overall not tough to put together.

The recumbent bike works perfectly for me with my arthritis. It was a bit of a challenge to assemble, but not difficult. All of the electronic functions work great and align with my Fitbit so it's accurate. Smooth "ride" as well. Great value for the money. Bought it on Prime Day and saved a good bit!

I love this bike, I use it every day.

super

Das Ergometer lässt sich mit guter Beschreibung in knapp 2 Stunden aufbauen und macht keinen schlechten Eindruck nach den ersten Benutzungen. Es hat ein einfaches Display, zeigt keine Wattzahl an und wird mit Batterie betrieben. Für den günstigen Preis kann man einfach nicht mehr verlangen.

Really good value. My husband put this together and it did take about 2 hours. It is quiet, the measurements are correct which is good because I had a specific corner of the bedroom I intended to keep it.The only complaint is that the seat creeps back and you have to tighten the handle EXTREMELY tight.I found on a 20 minute ride it moved back 2 inches. It seems to be OK now and isn't hard to change, in annoying.Bluetooth is good to track your workouts but the tuition on the app is for an extra monthly fee.I had a new hip a year ago and have a meniscus tear in my other knee. Being in isolation at home and not able to swim this has been wonderful for home exercise without gravity. I do 3 sessions if 20 minutes a day.Would absolutely recommend.

Ich bin ms krank und kann damit meine Muskeln etwas stabilisieren

The only downside is that I adjust the seat as close as I can to the stirrups but it slides back, won't lock into place. Could be operator error.
