Orbitrek Elliptical Machines

Orbitrek has come up with a basic elliptical machine that is ideal for the beginner.

Orbitrek elliptical machines are priced at the low end of the spectrum-around $170. But, as we have said before, when it comes to elliptical machines, you get what you pay for. Orbitrek elliptical machines are no exception.

The Orbitrek elliptical machine is manufactured by Thane Fitness. Thane fitness offers two models of the Orbitrek - basic and Platinum. The difference between them was not really that great based on the reviews. Mainly, there was simply a better manual drive system. Both models incorporate the upper body workout with the ski pole type hand grips.

Reviewers compare the Orbitrek elliptical machine to the Gazelle Freestyle elliptical, Proform 700s elliptical, Eclipse 1000hr elliptical and the Weslo Momentum 750 elliptical machines. With comparisons like those, how can you go wrong? The Orbitrek is a great choice for beginners on a tight budget that want to start a fitness program at home.

While you won’t exactly think you’re on a commercial machine with the Orbitrek, the features you do get are surprising for the price. You can invest very little money with the Orbitrek while getting great value in the process.

The old adage “you get what you pay for” might be a little misleading in this case, however. Reviewers and customers alike have given the Orbitrek elliptical machine a glowing grade among those ellipticals in the same price range.

Highlights include:

·                Up to 300 pounds user weight limit

·                Forward and reverse motion capable

·                Easily fine tuned resistance

·                Roller wheels for easy moving

·                Workout computer

·                Limited lifetime warranty

The Orbitrek is available on line from sites like Woderfulbuys.com.

A review at Trainersecrets.com said that infomercial testimonials are hard to believe sometimes. However in the case of the Orbitrek elliptical machine, all the information panned out. The fact that Thane has sold tens of thousands of Orbitrek machines speaks for itself. Especially considering the customer reviews, which are just about always good?

Thane has a brilliant marketing strategy: Try it in your home for six weeks for only $19.99. Shipping is free, so there’s nothing to lose. The Thane website states the following: “If for any reason you are not 100% satisfied with your purchase, just return the product within the first six weeks and we'll refund 100% of the purchase price, minus shipping & handling with no questions asked.”

Seems like a win-win situation with this one. Good reviews, good customer feedback, good features for the price and a rock bottom price. It all adds up to a great value for the consumer.
