Nordic LiftingMini Stepper Exercise Machine w/Resistance Bands Set & Non-Slip Foot Pads - Durable Construction with 330 LBS Weight Capacity - LCD Monitor

Doing this review as active 30-year old female who just happens to spend many hours a day in calls at home. I was looking for a substitute for my daily walks for days when I'm stuck at my desk to stay active and do movement in a limited time and with a limited space. The mini-stepper is a perfect solution. It is also a good option while transitioning towards the colder and darker months when going for run and walks in the evenings won't be possible anymore. While it might look easy, I must say it is quite challenging even for me that I exercise and hike regularly. It is also very compact, so can stay in any corner. I ordered this particular one as I was interested in the 3 sizes for the bands as I'm quite short (5.1 ft). Even the shorter one is too long and it doesn't do much. So far though, I have been focusing on getting used to stepping and practice different speeds. So, for the price, I absolutely recommend this mini equipment for moving at home.

If limited on space and the gym is not easy to get to, you can't go too far wrong with one of these. I use mine for a 20 minute warm up in the morning before I head to the gym (time is at a premium in the mornings before work).It's simple and does the job.Follow the maintenance guide and be sure to check the nuts and bolts and oil the correct parts once a month to keep it running smooth and silent. Do not oil the pistons! The instructions don't require you to, but I've come across people who seem to think it's a good idea. It's not.Only criticism I have is that the foot plates could do with being a little bigger; I have size 8 feet and my shoes just about fit on the steps and even then, I have to overhang my heels a tad, hence the loss of one star.There are cheaper ones out there but I put my trust in NordicTrack and paid a few quid more because I've seen their kit in private/commercial gyms, so they must be pretty good.

This is a robust stepper. It requires no assembly. The stretchy resistance tubes aren't very good. I think they are unnecessary - I find it better to use a light dumbbell rather than the bands which seemed either too long or too short. The stepping action is smooth , its not noisy but there is a noise as the foot plate returns to the starting position . Its not excessive or unacceptable. I have used the stepper every day for about a month.I can feel that my leg muscles have been working and they might a little more toned. I would not expect to 'see' results for perhaps another month. There is a timer , step counter and calorie counter on the display until . It comes with a little carpet mat ( nylon type carpet) . The stepper doesn't take up a great deal of room - easy to keep in the corner or under a table when not in use . It's great for using when watching TV and actually quite enjoyable . I probably would not recommend if you have balance or frailty issues as one feels quite elevated when standing on the stepper. Overall a good product, it does provide a workout and it's quick and easy just to get it out , use, and put away again . I have found that because it's compact and doesn't have to be stored under a bed or in a cupboard - I actually use it ! * update on my review . I have now had the stepper for nine months and it squeaks and creaks so much during use ( oiling and tightening has not solved the problem), that I tend not to use it because the noise is so irritating.

Great buy, does job. Can keep track of steps. Pleased.Would recommend.Used straight out of box.

The stepper is an excellent product and looks exactly as described by seller. It is solid, well built, durable, and easy to handle. We encountered no problem using it at first, and as time passes, we are becoming increasingly accustomed to its use. The product is doing exactly what we envisioned before buying it and we highly recognise the benefit it continues to bring to our lives. I will advise every one who is considering owning one to go ahead and get it without second thoughts. For me i am certainly proud I have invested in the product. Thank you to the makers!

Ordered July and started using daily from around October 2024. Today (31/1/25) I got on it and it felt wobbly, I found the metel had snapped/split on the back bar. Its now unusable. I am 180lbs (12.8 stone) well under the advertised 330lbs weight alowance. I have it on carpet on its little carpet square, ware trainers when using it and have oiled it and keep it in imaculate condition since brought as recomended. I absolutly loved it and feel absolutly heartbroken at the very quick decline of the structure of it. Unfortunatly I can't find away to contact the seller and Amazon are no help.Less than 5 months old, with 3.5 months daily use and the metal snaped.

I live in a flat and bought this to quietly do exercise. Turns out that this machine makes quite a disturbing knocking sound when in use and can easily annoy neighbours.
