Mini Exercise Bike, Under Desk Bike Pedal Exerciser for Arm/Leg Exercise, Adjustable Magnetic Resistance Desk Cycle with LCD Screen Display for Home/Office Workout

Having set a goal of attaining at least seven thousand steps daily, I discovered that it's easier said than done. I have seen other mini exercise bikes, but their weightiness render them a no-go for me, as they need to be hidden while not in use. When I found this unit I was pleasantly surprised by its price, and ordered it with the thought that if it doesn't work out, it wouldn't be a huge loss of investment. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that not only is this mini exerciser very lightweight and portable, it works very well. Because it's only seven pounds, it does tend to shift on my hardwood floor occasionally, which to me isn't that big of a deal. I showed this to my friend, who immediately ordered two, and reports that she is very happy with her purchase. This little exerciser is a great tool to reach and exceed my daily steps goal. Due to its portability, I plan to take this with me on my driving vacation trips.

Easy to use and great mobility!

I'd like to give it more stars-because it works great. BUT, first, it's mislabeled here which does not include COUNT, and second the hard plastic giant foot straps are permanently bent to the inside and they catch on the rotating pedal bars, which hurts the foot. That can probably be remedied by leaving it in the sun for a while and mashing it back the other way (or with a hairdryer to the plastic). I was confused about the FIVE settings. It says T, D, C, T-C and CA --that's FIVE. It shows FIVE settings on the screen. It's labeled (Scan which you can toggle on or off) then Time, Dis, Count, T-Count and Calories. The one in the middle is COUNT, and the T-C is total count, I guess like, over the life of the bike. So count is how many what, rotations??, and TC is EVER on that bike. For someone with POTS it's a great value for money. I can't afford a gym and between health, weather and pollution, I frequently can't walk. This is great for people who can't STAND while walking. I haven't used it enough to tell if it's a good workout value, but for people with circulation problems you need to (first consult your doctor and then) move your legs a lot. Seems sturdy enough. And yes it's easy to use. Adjustable foot straps and a light on the display would make it better.

Small unit, top quality - easy to build (just a few items to attach and they give you all the tools). Nice handle to hold. Top quality! Also helps arms yet, I have yet use it for that purpose.

This item is a simple pedal exerciser I wanted to help me with my recovery from keen surgery. It does that, so I am satisfied but if you want all the additional things it comes with - this is not the product to buy. Out of the box, the adjustable tension did not work, fully tightened max was the same as fully loose min. The display stopped working after the third use. But for the price, I'm happy since it helps keep my knee loose while I'm sitting at a desk all day.

Good for exercise

This is not a very good product. When I try to use it and wobbles and moves all over the place where I am on a hard surface like a wooden floor or a carpet.

The straps broke. Is there any way to order additional straps?
