LifePro Rhythm Vibration Plate Exercise Machine with Handles for Balance Support – Vibrating Plate for Muscle Tone, Circulation & Recovery, Heart Rate Sensor, Phone Holder, 99 Speed Levels

I am 74 years old. I bought this model because of the handrails. I have tried others without the handrails and had a feeling every once in a while, as though I was losing my balance. This is just my experience you may not have a balance issue. The handrails have eliminated that problem. Very quiet machine. The control panel is up at a height that is very comfortable to view and control. Well put together. I am very happy with my purchase so far.

Absolutely love this machine. Saw a similar machine at our State Fair for $2,500. This does the same thing. Assembly took about 40 minutes. It was missing a screw for the control panel but a trip to Lowes fixed that. I use 20 minutes prior to my normal workout. Feel much looser & can feel the effects especially in my calves. My wife feels it in her core. Highly recommend for the quality & price.

For an at home option this one for exceeds the others. Easy assembly, easy to get the warranty, easy to operate and fully functional. Good presets and manual is the default. Extras are nice. The phone holder just does not fit though. And the mat sent could be thicker. Otherwise no reason not to give 5 stars.

Likes: - The item arrived quickly and undamaged (which, when the instructions warn that heavy stuff might be damaged, is a concern) - It was fairly easy to assemble. It was nice that all of the fasteners were in place, rather than having to dump and sort through dozens of fasteners from a bag and trying to find the right one for each assembly step. - It was MUCH quieter than I (and my spouse) expected. - Even on the lowest setting, within a minute or two, I can feel my muscles working. I got the same report from my spouse after she took it for a spin. Dislikes: - I'm not a strong guy, so when I tighten fasteners, I tighten them as best I can, but would never consider myself some kind of wrenching gorilla. So it was rather disappointing when I tightened one of the two bolts at the bottom of the left tube and the bolt started spinning in the hole, since that indicates that I stripped it. I thought, "Wow, I guess I didn't realize how hard I was turning that tiny wrench; I'll go easy from here on out." And while I was tightening the screw between the handle and the tube on the right side, the same thing happened. After I completed the assembly and took it on its maiden voyage, I realized that my fears about this device shaking apart all of its fasteners was completely unfounded and, in retrospect, I now see that I could have gently tightened the fasteners and all would have been fine. At the end of the day, I don't think that these two loose fasteners will cause any problems, but it's disappointing to know that the metal and/or the cut of the threads and/or the fasteners themselves cannot withstand some minor torque applied to them. - The instructions in the manual said to loosely tighten each set of fasteners and then to tighten them all near the end of the assembly process. However, the video instructions on the website said to tighten all fasteners as I went. It would have been good to know which one of those was right. Also, if I'd followed the manual to the letter (loosely tightening each set of fasteners as I went), there would have been no way to tighten the top two bolts once the console had been attached. So, at a minimum, the manual needs a revision at that step. - I think the video instructions said that this would take 10 minutes to assemble. I tend to be a careful assembler and it took me about a half-hour. Part of that was wondering whether I should be following the written manual or the video instructions and trying to tease apart the differences between those two. - The UI on the console leaves a little to be desired. Having one button for Pulse and another button for Time is an inefficient use of buttons/space. Like if you had a button on your wall to turn on your lights and another button to turn off your lights; one button could just flip it to the other state. Also, the separator between minutes and seconds is a decimal point, not a colon. Realistically, though, none of the dislikes are showstoppers. This was an economical alternative to the over-$1000 models that are out there and while I've never used the others, I can see how standing on this thing for 10 minutes a day (or more, I guess) will help work some muscles that I don't get a good chance to work. I'm not exactly sure how to use the included straps (although they definitely increased the work I felt like I was performing on the devide) or the extra resistance bands, but I'm sure it'll be fine if I don't use them or maybe I can poke around on the website. I need support to stand in one place for anything more than a brief time, so I'd never get one of these which lacks handles. Being 6'3", I wish that the handles were a little higher, but my hands reach the handles, so it's fine. If we end up using this a lot, I can see upgrading to one of the expensive ones, but for now, this one seems to suit our needs just fine. Small edits/additions: The included phone holder features a clamp which might fit around a bicycle handlebar (I think the generic instruction sheet shows such a use case), but it does not fit around the handlebar of this device. Personally, I don't care, but my wife was looking for a way to keep her phone visible while using the device and I see no way for that to happen with this holder. The included cupholder mounted easily to the two fasteners on the center support, but I think it's a little small for the water bottles we tend to use.

So far so good! Great exercise routine on Lifepro Rhythm Vibration plate with support handles for us seniors who have knee issues and can’t handle walking exercises. Also wakes up the muscles my husband and I don’t normally use. Highly recommend.
