This elliptical machine is great, with a smooth ride and quality workmanship. It squeaks a little, but is fairly quiet in comparison to other home exercise machines I have owned. I love it, and it is well worth the price on Amazon! It took an afternoon for my husband to put it together, but it was worth the effort. The assembly was fairly straight-forward. We had originally planned on putting it upstairs, but it would take a two or three very strong men to get the flywheel upstairs. Whew! So now it is downstairs in our office instead.

I love the Ironman elliptical. Easy to put together & overall its a quiet machine. I did a lot of research on elliptical machines and I am extremely satisified with my decision.

My husband and I thought this was a great machine until the wheels fell apart and we are being told over and over that the replacements are on the way next day they say one week meanwhile a month later they are saying its out of stock!!! We should get in the next month & 1/2. Wow this machine's wheels are sooo bad that they ran out of stock - I can only assume others have had similar problems. By the way neither my husband or I are over the weight limit.

Got my 530E yesterday. It took my fiancé and I about 1 hour to put it together. The screws were already in the place they should have been, making it easy to put together. I think manufacture should take notes. It is totally gym quality and I would highly recommend. Only negative was the delivery. This thing is HEAVY! Weighing close to 200 pounds. Delivery truck dropped it off in our driveway. Thank god we have a hand truck. Once we got it in the house, we opened the box and brought the parts upstairs 1 by 1 making it alot easier.

I love the elliptical trainer, and use it 5-6 times weekly. My husband weighs 50 # more than me, and he's equally comfortable on it.

My only adjustment was to zip-tie a light plastic tray under the handpieces to allow a space to hold tissues & eyeglasses.

My only complaint is that the console is not adjustable, so it's too far away for me to read my magazine while using it. I wish the magazine rack pieces were adjustable (move closer together). I have to hold my reading material in one hand and hang on with the other if I want to read while I exercise.

But all in all, I'm very glad I purchased it!
