Product Description
The Stamina Air 1725 Elliptical Cross Trainer provides an effective, low-impact cardiovascular and strength-training workout. The elliptical cross trainer allows you to simultaneously work your upper and lower body without joint pressure or stress. Ellipticals are great options for individuals who are older or suffer from injuries. With an elliptical, you burn calories as well as strengthen and tone your abs, legs, hips and glutes without the damage caused by impact. The Air 1725 provides electronically controlled air resistance that targets the muscles in both your lower and upper body. Control the resistance level or intensity of your workout to target your individual fitness needs. The electronic InTouch monitor clearly displays your time, speed, distance and calories with simple one-button control so you can track your progress with every stride! Monitor your heart rate to achieve your optimal fitness potential via the built-in fingertip pulse sensors. The dual-action, foam-padded handlebars work your arms, chest, shoulders and back. The supportive, oversized pedals move in both the forward and backward direction for excellent range of motion. And, the 14in stride length provides ample space in which to extend and work your muscles. Target not only your hips, quadriceps and thighs with forward motion, but your calves, hamstrings and lower buttocks with the reverse. Get the cardiovascular and fitness benefits of running, jogging, jumping rope or doing aerobics without the risk of injury or the inconvenience of leaving your home. Instead, increase you metabolism and work your entire body with the sleek, stylish and convenient Stamina Air 1725.

THIS IS MY SECOND ONE THAT AMAZON HAS SENT ME. EVERYTIME I GET ON THE LEFT PEDAL UNSCREWS CAUSING ME TO FALL OFF OF THE MACHINE. I GOOGLED THIS PRODUCT AND FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MACHINE. I WISH I WOULD HAVE INVESTIGATED THIS PRODUCT BEFORE I WASTED MY MONEY. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS ELLIPTICAL TO ANYONE. DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!

This elliptical was just what I wanted. Something that wouldn’t take up much space. It was easy to put together and use. Haven’t had any problems with it.

For price paid this is a great exercise unit, value and price was excellent, direction and assembly were well explained and mainly easy assembly. Shipment time was fine. if width of base was just a little wider it would be less wobbly…[ASIN:B001J8SLS0 Stamina Air 1725 Cross Trainer Elliptical]]… but unit so far works properly. the Stamina 1725 was a good buy and seller performed as agreed and overall good feeling for purchase.

This eliptical is just great. It has an easy setup and is not expensive, but it works. I bought this a few weeks ago and didn’t get tired of using it yet. One minor piece broke in shipping, but the customer service at Amazon.com was great and the piece was already replaced straight from Stamina. I would definitely recommemnd this product to friends.

I loved this machine until last week when I noticed that the left side was loose. I tightened it and then this horrible squeaking developed and the left arm keeps coming loose. I have not abused this machine, just used it as you should be able to.

I agonized long and hard over which elliptical to buy. I did not have much money to spend and I was afraid I’d really be compromising. This elliptical was simple to assemble by myself and I really like using it. It isn’t perfect and shifts a bit on one side, but this could easily be construction-error on my part. Even so, the workout is great and I’m very happy! I’ve been using it for about a month and so far no complaints. I don’t expect it to hold up for more than a year or so of heavy use, but hopefully I’ll be surprised!
UPDATE: Nope – it did not hold up. Similar to other reviewers, I have had problems on the left side. The arm will not stay attached causing the entire left side to fall apart during use. No amount of fiddling can fix it. Now I’m hoping the manufacturer’s warranty is decent. I was only able to use it for 60 days – at $2/day it turned out to be an awful, abysmal deal in the end.

This machine broke a month after I got it. I would not recomend it unless you want to try to fix it yourself with the replacement parts.

left side broke then it stopped working from the inside. once i fixed the left peddle side it would not peddle anymore, it felt like it was locked up on the inside . Did not have very long and will never buy an eliptical online again.

I had a good experience in buying and assembling this machine. This was my first experience assembling anything and I did fine. It feels a little loose when I am exercising, probably need someone stronger to tighten it up. I would recommend the product, it delivers what it promises.

By no means do I think this is a high quality elliptical. You get what you pay for. I had the same problems that everyone else is describing. If you haven’t given up hope yet, I recommend using some Thread Lock which is available at Home Depot or any hardware store. Coat the threads of the screws that come loose with this stuff and it SHOULD lock the self-loosening screws in place making the attachment moreless permanent.
I called Amazon…they would accept a return provided I could uninstall the elliptical and place it back into the original carton. Impossible. I called Stamina…they weren’t much help either. I sure hope that the Thread Lock works long term. Give it a try and let me know.
