Sole E95 Five Star Rating   Sole E95 Review

Small picture of Sole E95 elliptical trainer The Sole E95 is an extremely well-designed and well-built residential elliptical trainer. Sole Fitness puts a lot of research into designing their fitness equipment and they came up with a real beauty in the E95. From its long 20" stride length, extremely smooth drive system, to its ergonomic cushioned foot pedals, the E95 is about as good as it gets in home ellipticals.

Smooth CE Plus Four Star Rating   Smooth CE Plus Review

Smooth CE Plus Elliptical Trainer Image The Smooth Fitness CE Plus elliptical trainer is a compact yet solidly constructed elliptical. It's ideal for apartment dwellers and anyone else with limited space who doesn't want to compromise on quality. Don't let it's small 55" footprint fool you!

The Smooth CE Plus sports a hefty 50 lb flywheel for an ultra smooth and whipser quiet motion and its patented "Extended Motion" technology provides a nice 19" stride length to accomodate most users. People over 6'2" will probably find the CE Plus to be on the bouncy side and should consider the CE 7.4 with a 21" stride length. Though a bit more expensive than other small footprint ellipticals, the Smooth CE Plus is head shoulders above them when it comes to stride length, feel, stability, and ruggedness. Translation: this is a great elliptical trainer!

Precor EFX 546 Five Star Rating   Precor EFX 546 Review

Small picture of Precor EFX 546 elliptical trainer The Precor EFX 546 is a commercial grade elliptical trainer. It's a large and heavy elliptical well suited for health club use. Probably too big and too heavy for most residential applications, but if your budget and space allows, it's hard to beat this elliptical trainer for total smoothness of motion, stability, and long term reliability.
