Portable Mini Cycle Bike Foot Pedal Exercise Machine Arm and Leg Recovery Peddler Exerciser Under Desk

Gave one to my 95 year old Mom for Valentine's Day (yes, she requested it) and she loves it. Though it is difficult for her to get out of her chair, she loves that she can still exercise her legs and knees without the strain of standing. Was relatively easy to put together (although watch out for installing the pedals - well documented, but counter intuitive). It's lightweight, yet very stable. And, it feels like it is substantial and well built.

This is a good little peddler and was easy to put together. My only complaint is it doesn’t stay in place, so you’re constantly moving it back toward you.

This is perfect. My mom just had brain tumor removal surgery and needed to get moving to prevent blood clots. Standing and walking made her dizzy so I got her this and she loves it. Easy to use and effective. Perfect size. We love it!

The action of the pedaling is "loose" and rickety, and does not feel very solid/stable. Works though. Also you need a lot of room under the desk for this thing or your knees bang on the bottom of the desk when you peddle. I have to pull the unit out from under the desk and slide my chair back so I can peddle.

This is a nice exercise bike but it has to be on a rug with a stickie back I start peddling an will scoot across the floor have tried in my chairs. Still using it just stop and bring it back in. Really helps with arms put it on my lap and pedal awe with my hand. Not to good at using the setting but use phone as a timer.

I found the item not difficult to assemble, all the tools are included in the shipment. It does take one AAA battery and you can install it easily. Hanging in the battery compartment is a lead, which you don't know what to do with? So, finally I noticed a hole you are supposed to stick it into. In the instructions nothing is said about this lead hanging, which should be addressed. When you place it on the floor and apply foot pressure to rotate the internal drive, it doesn't move smoothly, it gets stuck at two points. Perhaps this is just a design flaw, but I sent the thing back, since I didn't feel it was designed well. I wouldn't suggest buying this item for $60 or even $20.

Ordered this after a total knee replacement. I was hoping to use it under my desk to keep my knee from stiffening up once I went back to work. Our desks have a slide out key board under the desk that lowers the bottom and gives less room. On top of that I a fairly tall and have longer legs than most. So I could not use it. Our office is small and so there was not another place to use it. I think it would have done exactly what I hoped it would do. but unfortunately I am returning it as I already have a stationary bike at home.

Works well enough. I bought it for when I am watching movies or playing video games. It lets me work out while doing so. It lost a star for two reasons. Number one, the foot straps wouldn't fit my shoe, size 10.5 W to size 12 depending upon the brand, so I had to remove the straps. Number two, the display cycles through all of the settings, rather than staying on the one that I chose.
