I saw the Gazelle Freestyle on an infomercial one day. I didn't buy it right away but after seeing it a few times I gave in. I was living in Florida at the time and really didn't want to walk outside. I was a misplaced Oregonian, so Florida weather is...

Cons: Broke after a year, assembly is a pain in the butt

Just like many people on here, i was entranced by the Tony Little commercials for the Gazelle. Granted, Tony seemed a bit off (this is 2005 and he still has a ponytail..strange)but the machine itself looked pretty fun. So, i bought it on the Home ...

Pros: Very low impact, Easy to use, Fun!
Cons: Bulky and awkward packaging, no light on computer to see easily

I used to go to the gym 3-5 days a week, but moved and was further away than the cost of gasoline was worth. My apartment complex offers a gym, but it is not the sort of place that inspires exercise. I bought this for an easy to use, portable, aerobic ...

Cons: Loud, heart monitor doesn't work, video tape broke while watching the first time.

Cons: Makes strange noises as you break it in and you look kinda dumb on it.

If you are looking for...

My wife fell for the commercial. I'm definitely the skeptic, but promised her I'd keep an open mind. ...

Pros: Very quiet. Very good strong piece of exercise equipment.
Cons: Cannot store under the bed. A little akwardly heavy to fold up quickly.
