    Yes, great price. NOT easy for one person to put together, AND a bit flimsy.

    The seat rattles, the handles rattle.

    To put the adjuster together was nearly impossible – actually have not done it yet – too hard.

    The cable does not fit right.

    I was very pleased with this bike after assembling the parts in less than an hour. You are getting a $180 bike, not a $600 bike, so forget the bells and whistles. I needed to exercise my arthritic knee and strengthen the surrounding muscles in hopes of avoiding partial knee replacement surgery, so we’ll see what happens, but it serves the purpose nicely, especially if room for the bike is an issue. It is sturdy and worth the time and expense, and the folding option is one of the reasons It was purchased.

    If some of the bolts seem to not fit through the pre-drilled holes just use the enclosed tool and they will land where they are supposed to; it’s no big deal. I did use my own wrench to attach the handrail behind the seat because there is no law that says you have to use the enclosed tool. If you are handy this is not a big deal assembly. If you are not just take your time and READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS!!

    The one process that can be time consuming for someone without any arm strength is adjusting the seat using the adjustment knob. It is a snug fit for a reason and you have to use some finesse and power. This would be an issue if different sized people were using this bike, but it is not the end of the world. If there is one person there are no issues.

  3. This is the worst bike ever! Worked for only 2 weeks then belt broke. Called and e-mailed customer service at at Stamina since Jan 2010! Still is broken. It was past the refund for Amazon since I bought it for X-Mas in Nov for a gift for my wife.

    They did send parts – yes parts (needed a new belt) with no instructions. Figures it out and got it reinstalled – lasted 2 days! Pulleys were wielded incorrectly! That was the whole issue.

    It is now the middle of June. They keep telling me they will call back. Nothing. Keep e-mailing with no response. Asked for a whole new front unit and was told NO.

    I hate giving $200 (at the time) for something that does not work!

    You have been warned!

  4. I LOVE THE STAMINA 1350! IT MAKES EXERCISING EFFORTLESS AND I NOW LOOK FORWARD TO IT. THE BIKE WAS EASY TO ASSEMBLE AND IS VERY QUIET. I ALSO LOVE THE PADDED BACK & SEAT. I WOULD BUY THIS ITEM AGAIN. THE ONLY SUGGESTION: ADDING WHEELS THAT ACTUALLY ROLL.

  5. The Bike was a big surprise…A pleasant surprise and a great deal for the money. It was exactly what my doctor ordered and I love it.
