Product Reviews of Isokinetics Inc. Pedal Exerciser - Assembled - With Anti-Slip Strips
Product Review: Pedal power
Summary: 4 Stars
My job is a sit down job, and so I got this for the office to try and get some movement in during my 8 hours of answering phones.
For the price, I like the product. I use it. It is small enough to store in the office and not bother people. Light enough to move around. And easy to use.
The CON to this product, for me, is the fact I can build up a painful static discharge after a few minutes of using. But then I have to buy the thing that hangs off the car so I don't get shocked getting in and out of the car too.
So I wear a Computer Anti-ESD wrist strap while peddling here at work. Other people in my office have used it, and have not complained about static electricity issues.
Would recommend as a way to get some movement when you otherwise might not. I was not looking for something to make me sweat and work out like I was in a Jazzersize class. Just movement in my seditary day.
Product Review: My Grandmother LOVES it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this about a month ago as a gift for my grandmother, who is in her late nineties and had to stop using her beloved exercise bicycle due to balance issues.
She absolutely loves it and raves about it. She uses it every day and says she enjoys getting some exercise while she's watching TV or reading a book. It is used on a carpeted surface -- so far no complaints. She has also said that it helps her circulation.
To get something that helps both her psychological and physical well-being for such a low price is an excellent deal in my book! Very happy with the purchase.
Product Review: Love this

I keep this under my desk at work. I can use it while working. My legs don't hurt and swell as much when I use this. I don't get to get up at work so these really help.Product Review: That's hot!?!
Summary: 2 Stars
I suppose I should have expected this as there is obiously no space for gears but I was still caught off guard when it burned me. The tension mechanism uses friction only to bring you to higher "gears". That friction then heats up not only the "gear box" but the entire length of the pedal arms as well. Thank goodness they made the pedals out of plastic cause that's the only part of the body that doesn't transfer heat. You can avoid the heat by never turning up the tension but then why buy a tensioning pedal? My advise is to spend the extra money for one that uses real mechanical gears cause this thing is useless. Product Review: Work it!

Happy this came assembled! Well worth the extra $2 from other non-assembled products. Good resistance!
