Sturdy
9-27-23 I was a bit worried about how this stepper was going to withstand use, but I’m happy to report that after a week of daily use, so far so good! I weigh 280 and have no issues with the assembly making noise or shifting parts. One pedal goes down while the other goes up. For now I place my hand on a wall until it get my core stronger. It doesn’t take up much floor space, and I don’t see it damaging the floor. The parts that touch the floor have rubber.It doesn’t feel flimsy or unsteady. It doesn’t rock when I put one foot on a pedal while climbing onto it.I’ll update this review if anything changes, but so far, absolutely worth the money!

Sturdy and easy to use
Received the stepper today and I have to say it exceeded my expectations. It was already put together when it arrived. All that was needed was to turn on the counter and hook the tension straps to it. Once everything was on and ready to go it was all a matter of stepping on and starting. Very sturdy once I took that first step. I am 260lbs and it did not make me feel like I was going to break it. Was a solid machine and very easy to use. There was great tension and I was not worried about falling over or the machine moving on me. Was originally on the fence before but glad I took the plunge and bought it. Highly recommend this piece of equipment.

Good workout
I bought this for myself. Was able to use product right away; the only thing I had to put together was attaching the resistance bands. I always get a good workout and can feel the results in my abs, arms, and legs.

This thing is no joke!!!
I got this yesterday and this thing is NO JOKE!! I do orange theory 3-4x per week and this thing killed me after 5 min. I’ll have to gradually work my way up in time but this small device is mighty powerful for when I can’t make it to the gym!

One of my best buys
It’s perfect for those who work from home or otherwise don’t get enough steps in their days.It works as described, came ready-to-use right out of the box (except you’d have to attach the resistance cords if you want to use them).I can take a 5-10 min break in between meetings and get some steps in. I can also watch tv or listen to music while getting a longer workout.After a couple of weeks, it started to squeak, otherwise I’d have given it five stars.

Loud squeak sound
So, at first it was OK no noise, used it about once or twice a wk in Dec/Jan. The resistance is pretty good. But then all of a sudden since the beginning if Feb, I have been using it more often like 3-4times a wk and it is squeaking every time now. I’m only 5’1 & 110 lbs. It’s so annoyingly loud It wakes up my puppy. I literally came here to see if I could replace it however it says the return time frame was up on the 19th of Feb, literally 2days ago🙄. Hopefully they will see this and be kind enough to make it right. Because this stepper is too squeaky, I can’t even use it. It’s seriously like nails on a chalk board. For now it gets 2stars, I spent money and can’t even use what I bought.

Works great and no impact in joints.
It came completely assembled and usable right out of the box. I adjusted the screw to allow max range. I use it 4 times a week for at least 20 min and it works you out.The zero impact has helped rehab my injured knee, I already feel more range of motion, and it gets my heart rate really going.I’m really impressed at how good the quality is for such an inexpensive device.

Takes up very little space, works well
This little stepper has a very small footprint, easy to store under my desk for weekday use. There is a limit to how high you can set the steps before your foot lands at a very odd angle, but it can support a range of motion a bit higher than the average staircase, so I figure that’s good enough.Definitely get some high-temp non-melting grease for it. I had an issue with it squeaking on regular machine oil, but once I applied the temperature-resistant grease the squeaking stopped. I’ve been reapplying grease about once a month, and using it 5 days a week between 30 and 60 minutes.So far it’s been over six months with no issues with sturdiness or stability, so I’m giving it full stars.

Love mine!
I bought this because Tik Tok made me basically lol. But it has turned into an integral part of my daily routine these past few months! I wanted to wait until I’ve had it for a while to review it.I use my stepper every day first thing in the morning for at least 20 minutes straight and I have had no issues Except two. And that is #1: about a month after use I noticed it started to click and grind while I was using it and the pedals weren’t gliding as smoothly. I didn’t think much of it at the time. When I removed the stepper from the place I was in on top of my living room rug, there were very fine metal shavings/dust ground into my carpet! While I wasn’t thrilled with that, luckily some WD-40 has cured the problem and my stepper gets lubed up now every few weeks when I notice it isn’t gliding smoothly any longer. When lubing up the shocks, though, black metal shavings mixed with WD-40 leak out everywhere so I make sure to use the stepper on top of cardboard or my yoga mat and wipe the machine and the surface I was on clean afterwards.Another thing is that #2: the end caps have popped off of the machine a few times on me while I was using it. Nothing major and they pop right back on, but I’ve only had this happen when I use the stepper on a flat surface like my kitchen floor where the machine can easily slide around if I’m not careful. No issues with the end caps when using it on carpet or on top of my yoga mat. I could glue them into place I guess but haven’t felt the need to.Other than those two small issues I have no complaints. I like the resistance bands it came with a lot and they were SO HARD to use at first but I’ve built resistance up now and I love that you can remove them if you don’t want to use them. I found a set of higher resistance bands that are compatible with this machine so if I feel like doing a harder workout I can choose harder resistance bands to use that day.Compatibility was also a huge factor for me, as I have a small house with a toddler and needed this to store away somewhere when not in use. This machine does just that perfectly! It’s light and easy enough to use anywhere that I can get on it any time of the day, like in the evening when my husband and I watch TV. It’s quiet enough that we can both still enjoy the TV show without me disturbing him in the process. I love going for walks and jogging outside, but this is an awesome “home gym” addition to my exercise routine for rainy days or whenever I don’t feel like going outside. My main motivation for purchasing this was the 105° summer days we had! No more getting up at 4AM to run or walk outside unless I want to because this little machine is always ready! You won’t regret this buy if you’re serious about keeping in shape or getting in shape. It’s low impact enough to where it doesn’t bother my bad knee when I’m having bad days either and I love that. If you’re overweight and just looking to get started in your fitness journey in the comfort of your own home, look no further! Buy this!

Surprised how good it is
It came completely assembled and usable right out of the box. I adjusted the screw to allow max range. Now I use it several times a day while working at my sit stand desk. I’m very out of shape, so my target is 100 reps per cycle, and increasing over time.The zero impact has helped rehab my injured knee, I already feel more range of motion, and it gets my heart rate really going.I’m really impressed at how good the quality is for such an inexpensive device.

Does a good job
I have used this stepper now for three months. It is pretty good. 15 -20 mins a day give you a decent cardio workout. It has a knob that can be used to set up the effort mode. I use it on the intense setting and it’s a good leg workout and gets the heart rate up. The seller is very communicative if there are any issues.

Noisy and Leaves Black Residue/Shavings on Floor
I have had this stepper and used it consistently since July 2023. Since I began using this stepper, I noticed black residue/shavings would be left behind on my floor after use – this issue has persisted. The stepper itself began to squeak loudly following 3 months of use at which time I applied multi-purpose grease to the contact points on the stepper. The squeaking subsided after the aforesaid, but has come back ~2 months later. Overall, not super pleased with the stepper. Provides a good workout, but I’m not really looking to clean up black residue/shavings after each use and risk staining/discoloration of my floors.

Works great but digital step counter not so much
The only thing I don’t like about this is that the digital step counter in the middle has no easy way to reset it. It steps smoothly and has a nice easy natural spring. I’m 240 and it supported me no problem

Good small but not a vo2max workout
As a baseline for comparison, according to one measure my max heart rate should be in the low 170s. I have a treadmill in the gym I go to, and if I jog on that with a 15% incline anywhere from three to four and a half miles per hour, within maybe 3 minutes I get up to the mid-160s without too much trouble. I probably need to jog at four and a half miles per hour for close to a minute to get up to the mid-170s which is quite demanding.On the stair stepper if I go at a fairly good clip, sometimes having my toes right on the edge so it will go faster, after 3 to 5 minutes I can maybe get up to the mid-130s. On one occasion in the middle of a general workout I was able to get back on there and get up to 150. That said it was a major quad burn! That is something I do not get when I use the treadmill. Because of the shorter range of motion your quads are a lot more involved with the stepper, which feels like it makes it harder to get a higher heart rate since you’re limited by your lactic acid in the quads.Overall though this is still a pretty nice machine just to have around. I have it in my office which is right on space, and during meetings if I don’t have to talk and can turn the video off I’ll just hop on there for 5 minutes get my heart rate up to 130 or so.I’ve also put it close to a door where I have a different set of bands attached so I can pull on them, kind of like a cross-country skiing as opposed to lifting them like the ones that are attached. But I don’t mind doing both it just gives me variety so I can engage my back and triceps instead of my shoulders and biceps.Definitely a good purchase for the money and the space, but kind of hard to do a VO2 max workout on it.

It steps but…..
The instruction manual gives no details on how to adjust the stepper or program the meter. To program it tells you to “refer to the following picture” then shows several stretches & exercises with the bands instead of how anything works. It does tell you not to use for more then 20 minutes at a time which if I had known I would have picked a different one for who I bought it for.

Started squeaking after a few months
I really enjoyed using this mini stepper until it started squeaking… LOUD. I live in an apartment with thin walls and I’m pretty sure my neighbors can hear me exercising. The good news is it does work and I actually work up a sweat when I’m using it. I actually really enjoy using it and would give it five stars if it wasn’t for the crazy squeaking. It also does leak some of the lubricant a little bit. It wasn’t a lot though.It’s too late to return it at this point so I guess I’ll have to see if I could find a way to lubricate it somehow.

WHEW! Will put you through your paces
I’m just now getting back into fitness post covid. This stepper is LEGIT. I’m a heavier girl, and ya’ll I knew I was out of shape but dang this stepper! I can only for right now do about a minute before I’m like okay break. I will say shipping was late but the seller did communicate that to me. I do like the bands to help me get in an upper body workout. It is sturdy, my only drawback is the little nubs, hurt my bare feet so I have to wear shoes otherwise very happy with my purchase!

TikTok Made Me Do It
Glad it did, because I love this thing. If you have it set up in a place where it can permanently stay, you will naturally want to step on it for a few steps throughout the day to get accustomed to it. I recommend starting out this way because it will kick your butt. You will discover muscles in your legs that you didn’t know existed.

Not balanced/ You get what you pay for
Second review:I am adding an update after receiving the replacement of the machine.The first one was not stable so I returned. When I received the second one I was extremely impressed with it until the third day of using it when it started to squeak and one of the leg stands started shaking as you step up and down on it.The company sends you the machine very clean and they run good business. Also, the machine gives me a good exercise for my legs and I break a sweat while using it, but honestly, you get what you pay for. I just hope it doesn’t break as I am using it.First review:This is a good product but lopsided. It moves side to side as you exercise on it. I will ask for a replacement and hopefully the new one is more stable.

Squeaks
Sturdy, but squeaks annoyingly. I only ever use for 20 min and have to grease it or WD40 the joints every single time. I’ve had other stair steppers that didn’t do this so I am not sure why this one does.

Great…until it starts flaking black goo
Bought this for my husband for Christmas. He is 175 lbs and uses it in 15 min increments. Super useful and portable for a short work out. But the hydraulics get super hot.. then we started noticing it was leaking black goo/metal shavings that could stain our carpet. Longevity… not so much. Good idea but needs more R&D to correct its flaws.

LISTENN BELIEVE THE HYPE GET YOU ONE
YouTube made me buy it ! I was a bit skepticalnot going to lie . However, it did what it’s suppose to do add in some 5 lb weights or kettlebells you will feel it and it is a workout. The max I’ve done on this is 30 mins most days 20 mins always on the highest incline and stepping with intensity . Make sure you have good balance and put in that work 0 regrets on this purchase.

Noise maker
I like the stepper a lot. I use it 6 days a week for 30 mins and all of sudden it makes a lot of noise after a while. You have to either tighten up the screws(which you have to use an hex or Allen key) and spray the screws with WD-40 or use something that’s a lil thick. But other than that it’s good
