I really like this bike. I like that it shows me how fast I'm going, calories spent, distance, and time. It runs smoothly and makes very little noise. It was sort of easy to put together. The only thing I don't like about the Marcy is that the backrest jiggles, and I can't seem to tighten it up, but that could be my fault. That jiggling doesn't affect the bike's performance at all. It showed up at my door almost instantly! I am a Prime member so I get orders within 2 days, but this recumbent bike was here in 1 and 1/2 days.

I suppose you get what you pay for. It's pretty easy to put together, I did it by myself, only having trouble with the resistance cable. The tools that are supposed to be included were not. I read in another review and can confirm that no matter what bolts you tighten or how much you tighten the seat down when you really start pedaling hard the seat shakes and makes noise. The calorie display is way off (which isn't really a big deal to me.) I bought this so I could alternate my running (I run everyday) but I find myself still running the majority of the time. My 12 year old son really likes it though.

The instructions clearly state 3 tools are included. I only received one, the allen wrench. I called the company and stated the tools were missing and they said they would send them priority mail. Never came. Called back, then I'm told there's a mistake with the packaging and those tools are not included. So apparently I need to go find the appropriate tools to put the dang thing together. The bike itself is probably fine but it p*sses me off to no end that this company...1. gives different answers at different times and 2. cant provide the 10 cent tools that would allow me to put the bike together.

This is a great product for the money. It is sturdy. Relatively easy to put together. Had a little trouble with the cable but then I put it together myself (it can be done). I left the side handle off to save space and its not a problem. The seat is very comfortable.

I was very impressed with the quality and performance of this bike. It performs like a much more expensive bike. I just had double knee replacements done and bought the bike for this reason. I love it so much I wish I had purchased it long ago. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good recumbant bike at a very affordable price.
