Folding Pedal Exerciser - Mini Exercise Bike Under Desk Bike Pedal Exerciser with LCD Display for Arms and Legs Workout, Portable Desk Bike Peddler Machine for Adults & Seniors

I orginally bought this to use at work under my desk. I have been using it for PT, for strengthening my neck, shoulders and arms. I pedal with my hands. It is easy to use. It works to strengthen upper body as well as pedal with feet. It is a good investment.

I bought this to exercise at my desk. It looked small enough to fit under the desk at work, which it was. The tension setting does not give you enough tension to get any kind of aerobic exercise workout, even when the setting is at its maximum. The metal that reaches out to the peddles is covered with insulation. This is because the bare metal gets so hot it would give you a second degree burn if you touched it. I would not recommend this product unless you just wanted to move your legs. Probably good for someone who is very sedentary and just needs to move the lower body extremities. It also slips around so you will need to use the non skid pad they send with it although this will eventually rip

I’m a fool because I waited too long to return it. This has almost zero tension and it does not pedal smoothly. It is jerky and provides no benefit. Do not buy this.

Ordered this as a temporary solution for my aging mother-in-law, who is overweight due to back problems and low mobility. I use a recumbent bike extensively (2-6 hrs/day) while doing computer work, so I didn't expect much from this tiny substitute. However, I tried it out from an easy chair while watching TV and found it was almost 80% as useful as the recumbent bike, because it only has 20% less resistance. Thus upped my pedaling by 2-3 hours/day even while eating in front of the TV.We finally delivered it to Mom-in-Law recently and she loves it. With obesity, arthritis, badly pinched disc, and lung problems, she could walk only 5 minutes slowly without stopping, with arthritic pain and breathing problems requiring rest breaks. After a week of pedaling 5, then 15 minutes/day, she can now walk 15+ minutes without resting, walks faster, and doesn't have the joint pain she used to have. Lost 2 kilos in the first week and 2 more the next 2 weeks.This actually works better for her at this early stage than a recumbent bike with seat (which I also bought her, but haven't delivered), because she is so overweight (5' 0", 207 lbs when she started, 198 lbs now) that she couldn't sit on a normal bike seat. This small folding pedaler can be used in front of a sofa or easy chair (which she currently needs because of her weight and shape).It also folds, so it fits in a suitcase if you are traveling or if your mother-in-law lives overseas.I wish I still had it so I don't feel guilty watching TV.

I ordered the peddle exerciser for my mother-in-law. The device folds nicely for travel (not a feature that applies to us) and looks very durable for use by a great-grandmother aged person of very slight build. As noted by my other reviews, the tension adjustment is in effective. I have not done any machining on the device, but I believe the issue is with the threads not allowing the screw to go deep enough to apply pressure on the crank.

I'm a college student and spend a lot of time in my room doing work. I wanted something to fit under my desk so I could pedal away while typing essays. Unfortunately, this does not fit under my desk--my knees come up too high, so I can't use it for my original purpose. I don't think my desk is lower than your average work desk, but I could be wrong.This is super easy to put together, but beware--I accidentally installed my screen upside down! Not a big deal because I don't really care about seeing my time, calories, etc., but still. It isn't very sturdy--I can feel (and hear) everything shifting and wobbling as I use it, but not to the point that it becomes unusable. One of the straps on mine is slightly bent, so it constantly rubs against the padding on the arm of the pedal and has already torn the padding there.Everything I just listed is less than I expected to be an issue with something this cheap! I'm really happy with it, and even though I can't use it under my desk while I work, I use it while I'm reading, watching TV, or just messing around on my phone. It's a great way to make your passive moments into more active ones with minimal effort!

Scoots. Doesn’t stay in one place

Not worth it, don't be cheap like I was and just invest in a better one. The resistance for the pedals is adjusted by rotating a knob that pushes a bolt against the pedal bar. There are a couple problems with that:1. As you pedal it works the bolt looser and you loose all resistance2. Doesn't apply even resistance so pedal action is not smooth, causes pedals to jerkOther cons:1. Foot straps are adjustable but screwed down. You need a screw driver any time you want to adjust straps to fit different shoes or person2. Height of device and height differential between pedals makes it not work for lower desks/taller people. I'm 6'2" with a desk height of 28" and my knees need 3" more room to clear

I bought this product excited about working out. However the product has started squeaking to no end . Parts are loose now . Kindly keep in mind it has been just 12 days. Wouldn't recommend this to anyone. In a nutshell I would state the product won't last more than a month and any amount of money is down the drain.

Very poor service. The product comes with a speedometer and a loose wire. No instructions about how to install it. I even raised a query to the Seller. He just mentioned “watch on youtube” without giving any links. Pathetic response and very difficult to assemble. DON’T BUY.

Effective and useful product, one thing not sure about, may be it was used by some one or may be it was one of the malfunctioned product. As taping was done over the tracking display and also the top knob to control the speed, the screw doesn't go inside completely. Yet every products quality also depends on the brand and it's value..Reviewing after more than one month of continues use, no issue yet also the meter reading is very much perfect.

Its not stable, neither sturdy. The knob to tighten the cycle is of no use just for name sake, returned the product

The reading is not functioning properly. There is a loose contact in the meter. When we pedal the reader disappears
