Summary: schwinn recumbent bike
Comment: this bike meets out needs. we are committed to a 1 hour or more continuous workout daily. most days we walk using the nordic sticks. we walk about 5 miles. but during inclement weather we ride the bike. the seat makes it comfortable to sit and the computer monitors heart rate.
a really good product

Summary: Some Assembly Required
Comment: Actually a lot of assembly. The good news is that the instructions are very clear, tools are provided, and the hardware is laid out with each item carefully identified.
Once you get it together and start using it you will find that the operation is very smooth and quiet. It is comfortable, easy to adjust, and very stable. It does creak a bit if you peddle at a cadence over 85 or so but you can notch up the resistance and that will slow you down.
The controls are very easy to use. It asks for a lot of information when you start to use one of the built in programs but if you use the same program over again it remembers your input so you just have to press enter unless you need to change the value.
The built in fan is a nice addition. After you get heated up from exercising you might want it to blow harder than it does.
Overall it is a very good machine and I am glad I purchased it.

Summary: Schwinn 231 a winner
Comment: My whole family uses and loves this exercise bike. It's super comfortable and easy to use. It was a little bit complicated to set up, but the directions were easy to follow and tools were included. This bike is pretty heavy, but the handle on the back and wheels make it easy to move it around. I will be getting an exercise mat to put it on so the carpet doesn't get messed up; you may want to order one along with the bike if you get one.

Summary: Don't buy it!
Comment: I have had my Schwinn 213 for just over a year and have used it for about 40 hours in all. Unbelievably the computer in it is broken which means that you can no longer do anything with the $550 bike except sit on it and ride it at the easiest level. No settings, no timings, nothing! A new computer would cost $279 and that would be foolish - being the first one lasted only a year! Do yourself a favor AND DON'T BUY THE SCWINN!

Summary: Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike as Advertised
Comment: I received the product in perfect condition and on time. Amazon had easily the best deal. Assembly took about 2 hrs with the tools provided and the directions were easy to understand and accurate. I read the user's guide and was comfortable with the operation in about 15 min. The bike is so quiet that I watch tv at normal volume levels while I ride. If you prefer to ride with the fan on, that will, of course, change. There are so many programs to choose from that any desires for variety can be easily satisfied. The display is big and easy to read.
I cannot at this early stage in my ownership, vouch for durability, but out of the box, I couldn't be happier. This bike appears to be a great value for the money.
