I am debating between sole e25 vs sole e35 I am 160 lbs, 5'10'' and need a small foot print machine like sole e25 I don't see much benefits of sole e3

I am 6' 4", 180 lbs and my wife is 5' 1". Both of us find the e25 to be a great machine. In fact, right now we have two of them. The newer one has adjustments for the foot "angle" to raise or lower the heel so you can adjust to pretty much keep your heels planted throughout the stride. In short, we would recommend the e25.

The 301's are 3 inches deeper the the 201's, height and width are about the same. This translates to a much richer/deeper listening experience. The 301's project much better than the 201's. I own both, spend the extra money and get the 301's. You won't regret it.

My only experience is with the P1X, but on paper it appears that the same exercises are supported by both machines. The dimensions listed on the data sheets suggest that the P1X is a little higher and much wider, but the width of my P1X is closer to 40" than the listed 66". The P1X has a more "modern" appearance for what that's worth. The main consideration that led me to buy the P1X was the fact that the P1X had to be assembled from multiple parts. This my seem counterintuitive, but since I needed to do all the work myself, I was concerned that the pre-assembled units of the BSG10X would be too heavy for me to handle alone.

The Trio 20 is a ultra light, but you may like the Trio 30S better. It's small but stronger the then average 30 size which makes it more versatile.

I'm heavy, 200+, and wish I would have gone with the 10". I hate the 12", no good support at all. Woman at customer service at Lucid said the 10" would have been better. Hope this helps.

Solid elliptical. Comfort level will depend on your height. An individual with short legs or less than 5'10" in height may not like this machine. Strongly suggest that you try this machine before purchase. Personally, I have been very satisfied.

Smallest? The NOZZLE calibration makes fine little squiggle lines on the build plate. They are the size of a thick thread. So your little people in reality are not that little and should not be a problem at all. I have printed some very fine parts for mechanical projects and have been very pleased. The software has adjustments to allow a very fine print. Not unlike a DOT MATRIX printer. The difference being instead of a dot of ink it leaves a dot of PLA or ABS. You can SCALE larger in any or all AXIS for taller or shorter as well. Now, for something like your little people, I'd start out using a RAFT (I almost always use a raft) and set the INFILL at 100% with a .05mm Layer Height and just one Shell but 2 would probably be okay too. I would suggest using PLA if possible for finer prints. I have always noticed a nicer finish with PLA on both the Makerbot and the FlashForge. Now, if you are going to paint them, I have also found that BLACK gives me the best overall for fine quality. I hope this helps!

I have tried both and I like the Sole Fitness more. The magnet based bikes stop at a lower resistance, at least to me. The one issue I have with the Sole is that the right pedal is making a lot of noise. I think something is wrong with the threads as I have had to tighten it several times.

I tried both the 230 and 240 today at the local Dick's Sporting Goods store. The only 230 they have for sale is the floor model which has been badly abused. I really liked the 240 better. Better console and graphics, better seat. It's actually cheaper for me to buy the 240 locally and pay the sales tax than order from Amazon and pay shipping with the danger of having it arrive in pieces as many other reviewers have experienced. The difference in warranty doesn't really bother me.

Looks like it is 200 lbs. Sole E55 Elliptical TrainerIt certainly felt that heavy while setting it up. This is a machine you want to assemble in the room where it will reside. The flywheel assembly alone required two people to move.

P2X have functional swivel pulleys so you can do additional exercise movements that you cannot do with the P1X (like pec flys). Machine footprint is 66 inch wide x 71 inch long x 83 inch tall

Hi, N. Brown! I actually ordered mine from JC Penney, since I got a good price on it by way of an advertising error on their part... Either way, I only got it last night, and didn't find it too difficult to assemble just going by the sheet instructions. It IS quite heavy weight in construction, which I definitely count as a plus. The one thing that I can see that, so far, hasn't been mentioned in the reviews is, if you're on the heavier side (I'm 210 lbs at 5'5" tall, and wide through the hips) it doesn't SEEM particularly roomy when you're on the machine. I DID have a great time exercising on it last night after assembling it, though! If you love elliptical machines, as I do (they were my only motivation for going to the gym, and every time I went, I had to wait at least 20 minutes to get on one, so I cancelled my membership... Now I've got my own, dagnabbit! ;) ), you should really like this machine. I don't know if they're as squeaky over time as the other reviews state, but I'd assume that they are. Also, I live in a single bedroom apartment, and don't have a lot of room left over to leave this standing up. The main problem? I'd planned on sliding it under my futon when I'm not using it, but everything but the handles will fit - the handles just sit too high up to fit underneath it. It IS a heavy piece, as I said before, so a bit unwieldy, but the wheels on both the bottom of the rear frame, and the foot pedal pieces, help for maneuvering it. If you're not big on exercise, as I am not unless it's fun for me, but love cross trainer and elliptical machines, then I'd suggest you get this, if it's not more than you want to spend. It does take a little initial exercise to figure out your rhythm, but once you get going, it's GREAT! I woke up this morning eager to get back on it and go, and I haven't felt that way about exercise in YEARS, if ever!

Start with the fine so you can get a feel for the machine & not hurt yourself. My feet were pretty bad & it worked well b-cuz the machine is so powerful. You'll know within seconds if you need to use the coarse instead. I burned myself a few times during the process. I'd definitely recommend starting with the fine until you get a feel for the machine.

Get one of the Microplane Colossal Foot Files (be careful your first time) and you will be amazed at how much your feet will change within minutes! Then use the creams for maintenance and prevention. The file is the key to quick success ;)

Hello. I'm also 5 feet tall and wondering if anyone ever answered your question. I want to buy an elliptical and they all seem to cater to tall people! I had to have the pedals of last one I owned removed and moved forward, putting wood blocks underneath to also raise me up. Otherwise I the only way I could reach the handles was to walk in a leaning forward position. ANYONE out there with advice for us shrimps?

Bryce...i don't know if there is an exact answer to this question...i would try with and without the original sole and find which is best for you...

I chose the Blaze due to the wider lat tower and included lat bar. Also I wanted the additional exercises like the 'lying leg curls' along with the ability to upgrade the resistance. I also am really happier with the beefier build as is evidenced by the difference in weight of the machine, 148 lb for the PR1000 and 214 lb for the Blaze. If your like me, price is important and I got mine during black Friday sale for a little over 600, hint hint. Im sure the PR1000 would be sufficient, but I'm glad I got the beefier, upgradable version.
