I was gifted a Schwinn Airdyne in 1994. I can't even guess how many miles I put on that bike. Now that I'm older I find it more difficult to get on and off the Airdyne. I decided to get one off your recumbent bikes. It works great and I'm very pleased with my new exercise bike. My first bicycle back in 1962 was a Schwinn. I guess I love the brand, especially for the quality! Thank you! Jim

I ride multiple times per week. My Technogym broke so I opted to replace it with the Schwinn. It's an okay bike. Does the job. We found one of the last pieces that covers the wheel impossible to attach so it's kind of propped there. My husband says he may be able to screw it into place but it's an imperfect make or it wouldn't be so hard to put together. Something was just off about the parts fitting together correctly . Seen as that I don't want to go thru the hassle and time it would take to replace and take apart again etc I'm just going to deal as it's a cosmetic inconvenience and doesn't affect the operation of the bike. Just looks tacky and comes across cheaply made.

I bought this because I have a three-year-old and my life has become determined by his schedule and needs, which means I am not getting enough exercise time and I am tied to the house when he's napping or sleeping. I needed a small-footpring elliptical because I only had a bit of room for it in my bedroom. This one is much smaller than typical but big enough to feel like it won't fall over. It works pretty well; the only thing I don't like is that it hops around a little when I'm using it -- so I have to move it periodically or it runs into the wall. I didn't expect it would move like that, but I still think it's worth it for someone like me who is not going to get exercise without finding this rare machine that fits into a small space and wokrs well enough to get my heart rate going. It's also not as quiet as I expected from the description, but it's certainly not distractingly loud.

In the last few years I have experienced issues with both depth perception and balance. I have also moved back to Northern NH and I thought it would be a wise investment to purchase a stationary bike to exercise in my home thru the winter instead of taking the risk of walking for exercise out in the snowy, icy environment where I live.

The bike was fairly easy to setup. After setting it up noticed the screen did not illuminate. I have a very hard time reading the screen unlike my previous Schwinn bike, the 250. There is not a cooling off period built into the program like the 250. The control buttons are hard to see. Need to shine light on the console screen. I was told by Customer Service the 230 was very similar to the 250. I found out otherwise. The seat and back support are very uncomfortable, needed to use a pillow.

I use this bike for steady state, zero impact cardio. I love how easy it is to adjust and it is next to silent. I wish the bottle holder was in a different area. My arm always bumps into whatever is in the holder. The seat isn't the most comfortable, but adding a towel to sit on resolves it easily.

Only problem is that the elliptical has too much resistance at the lowest level. May not be a problem for younger people, but is for an older person like myself. I have an older version of the same Schwinn elliptical at our summer home that I have used for several years and it does not have the problem of too much resistance.
