" ... This is the only part of the stepper that is not completely secured by bolts, just some weird latch. ... It is a noticeable wiggle and it moves around even if you are not touching the handlebars, but just peddling. ... "

" ... The only complaint I have so far is the handlebar attachment wiggles quite a bit. ... This is the only part of the stepper that is not completely secured by bolts, just some weird latch. ... If it gets too annoying, I may just have to remove the handlebar attachment completely, which is frustrating because I bought this version specifically FOR the handlebar support. ... "
" ... YOU WILL FALL OFF THE THING. ... "
" ... Update: After 3 days of using it in the seated position, it started squeaking! ... You also need a 12 mm socket to remove the bolt that secures the crank, which once removed allows you to remove the crank with the tool mentioned above, but there was no mention of that in the email I received. ... Then you can remove the 11 screws which hold the 2 plastic case parts together, and get to the main pulley, v-belt, and the flywheel assembly. ... I used some black non-slip shelf liner cut to fit on top of the pedals so I can wear only socks when using it. ... "
" ... the clips break easily. ... "
" ... One of the foot pedals would not rotate properly and the hookups to attach the armbands were missing. ... "
" ... It tips over to the side very easily so you have be extremely careful getting on and off and using it. ... "
" ... I tried it and indeed, the awkward angle (the pedals seemed to be going downhill) combined with the wobbly nature of it make it an utter hazard. ... "
" ... The wheels do not stay on the metal plate, so they make a ton of noise, damage the floor underneath the machine and jerk your leg around unnecessarily. ... "
