Our Review

Besides being a good value for the price this elliptical machine is also reported to be very quiet and smooth which makes it a perfect addition to any home gym.

During your workout you will be able to hear the TV or your phone calling. Though the Schwinn 430 assembly isn't as quick and easy as most people would want it to be, most consider this challenge another exercise. Moreover, this piece of equipment is lightweight (only 169 pounds) and is able to cope with 300-pound users. Even if you are going to use this elliptical several times a day without days-off, you will definitely notice how durable and stable this trainer is. Most users adore the holder that allows them to hold a tablet but there are a few complaints about its adjustable incline which should be manually dismounted.
