MERACH Recumbent Exercise Bikes for Home with Smart Bluetooth Equipment Exercise Bikes App,LCD,Heart Rate Handle Stationary Bikes for Home, Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike for Seniors Gym S08/S23

Great price. Not a bunch of extra BS you don't need. Easy to put anywhere. Easy to tuck away when not using if you want. Easy to assemble. Like the heart rate monitor. Very sturdy. It just looks like no BS. If you want to read my babbling on. I bought this because I own an under desk pedaler from Merach. Love the Magnetic Resistance. The price was too good on this to pass it up. I left the gym membership. Got everything at home now. I'm rehabilitating from heart failure, cardiovascular disease, and an amputated left foot. Spent months walking wrong on crutches. Just to make up for the pain in the prosthetic. Close to walking on my own. Working with a physical therapist. Weak hips biggest problem. I mentioned to her about a recumbent bike. All she said was; Yes! This thing works my outer upper legs and inside of knees well. It's what I need. I also have a roller for my regular bike. Gee...I've gotten older. Don't like sitting on that seat for long. This seat is great. I'm very happy with this. Look forward to many workouts on it.

Very easy to assemble and mobile if you need to move it around. Very sturdy and easy to adjust the seat for different situations. Downloaded the app as well and pretty neat to use for a workout.

Ok first - there is a video how to put this bike together. Strongly advise to watch. It went together fairy smooth and easier if have second person. Second- it is a comfortable seat, easy to adjust up and down or forward and back. It is placed on a sold base bar but held on by 4 short bolt screws underneath. I am concerned they will strip out of the seat itself later. Not much to screw into. But can adjust to any height person. Third- pedaling is very smooth and no noise! Making watching tv with family while pedaling a breeze. Can change to fit small or large feet. Looks sharp draws people to want to try it out. The Verdict- I wanted a bike that wasn’t going to break the bank that I could use while recovering from an injury. But I found a bike I love even after I recovered. I definitely think it’s worth the money and I guess we’ll just see how sturdy the chair is as we go.

great product i use this every day real quiet great price was easy to put together you will enjoy this

I've only owned this bike for a few days, so far, I am pleased. I purchased this bike because I am out of shape, overweight, suffered a knee injury and have minimal space. I initially planned to purchase an upright stationary bike but resisted because no seat looked comfortable enough to handle my tush and because I am so out of habit of exercising, sitting up was just not appealing to me. This bike caught my eye and I am so glad that it did! I am 5'7, 300 lbs- I suffer from ailments that chain me to minimal movement for months at a time which has caused an adverse domino effect on my health. I needed something to encourage a healthier me without leaving my home and remaining in the room that is safest for me- my room. My room is a descent size but I own a queen size bed which takes up a lot of space. This bike sits comfortably at the foot of my bed next to a chair with a descent amount of space on either side of the bike and in front of the bike. I'm so sold! I appreciate the fact that I can comfortably lean back while riding and the bars offer more stability. Sitting straight up is uncomfortable at this stage of my getting healthier, ya know. Adjusting the seat according to your height and comfort is simple, as well as controlling the resistance. If you prefer to lean forward while cycling, the bars in front should be comfortable, but honey I have too much fupa for all that right now! The cup holder is a bit of a reach but maybe that's to encourage a consistent workout. I don't know. The display is nice and easy to read and control. The moment you begin peddling, the monitor begins tracking your session. I do not use the app to maintain my sessions as I use my phone or watch to track. This bike is a win, win! Not too long, the resistance settings encourage easy difficulty, it's stable and the peddles are comfortable, even barefoot- but I'm country and enjoy walking outside barefoot! Another plus is the silence. Sometimes when I'm unable to sleep at night, I hope on for a few moments and the session does not disturb my family in other rooms if the house and I can comfortably watch and listen to my television! The assembly. It was not terribly challenging but having a person to help makes the assembly even smoother. I could not for the life of me figure out how to attach the monitor bar with the cord but learned that the cord belonged inside bar. Once I figured that out, it was smooth sailing. All of the hardware including the needed tools are included and easily installed. This is a great investment. Comfortable and fulfills its purpose!

My criteria for my first exercise equipment purchase was, it had to be light enough for me to move, quiet operation, multiple resistance levels, and easy assembly. This recumbent bike checked all those boxes. It came perfectly and carefully packaged. The body of the bike is already assembled, you add the front and back feet, handle bars, seat, monitor and pedals. All of the hardware is labeled for each step of assembly. Instructions are straightforward and easy to follow. I'm a 65 year old woman with rheumatoid arthritis and I was able to put this together in a couple of hours and move it into place. I've only used it a couple of times so far, but it is super quiet. It's stable, doesn't shake or move. The seat and backrest aren't super comfortable, but I figure I'll get used to it or see if they can be changed. Not a deal breaker. The hardest part of assembly for me was the straps on the pedals. I could get one side attached but not the other. Also not a deal breaker, since my foot stays put on the pedal. It feels secure even with only one side attached. So far, I'm loving this bike. It feels sturdy and well made. I'm sure I'll be enjoying it for a long time

My husband had a stroke 2 months ago on Thanksgiving Day. To augment his 2 day a week in-home physical therapy we thought he’d benefit from having a recumbent bike. We’re in a townhome so we knew we didn’t want anything too large. This bike is perfect. It comes in one, somewhat large and heavy box but I was able to drag it in the house on my own. It took me awhile to get it all unpacked, lots of styrofoam needed to be broken off in order to get all the pieces out. But everything was in great condition. I was able to put a few parts together myself using the manual and watching a video on YouTube. It could have done the whole thing eventually as it is pretty straightforward but my son in law came over and helped. The bike is very sturdy and easy to get in and off for my husband. It can be lifted from the back and rolled around easily. My husband’s had a little trouble remembering how to set up the display but with a few more rides I think he’ll get the hang of it. Overall it seems really well built, has a small profile but is fine for his 6 foot frame. I set up the app with my iPad which was super easy and now I’m having fun with it too, monitoring my progress.

Arrives packed nicely in manufactures box w/ solid foam all the way around it. No scratches or dents or rips. Completely brand new. Pretty simple to put together. Directions appeared to be correct. I am 5’2” and can comfortably reach the pedals. The chair easily slides to change adjustment. It is pretty padded and comfortable. Better than expected at this price level. All settings appear to work. All the reviews are correct!

Easy to assemble, the assembly parts are grouped by steps which makes it easy. The video for the build steps is also very easy to follow. It is very sturdy , works exactly as a magnetic bike does. Only downside is that it won't be appropriate for taller people. Up to 170 cm is perfect, beyond that not going to work. It is exactly what we needed so it is 5 star for us, if you are taller then 170 would not recommend. Additionally if looking for a high resistance frequent resistance change experience not made for that. It is great for steady cardio with a decent resistance level. Not for a hardcore veteran, very good for a beginner to intermediate.

Love this recumbent bike! It’s been great for my knee arthritis — super smooth, really quiet, and easy on the joints. Fits perfectly in a smaller space and was a breeze to put together. Totally recommend!

Overall I’m super pleased with this purchase! It did take a long time for me to receive the item, but after a message to the seller they communicated with Amazon and my package arrived shortly after. Assembly was reasonably easy. I was able to do it by myself over the span of a couple hours. Having a second person would speed things up, but isn’t necessary. The only reason I detracted one star is because of the app. It’s easy to use, but unfortunately completely failed to track some of my workouts. I’m not sure if I need to have the app open the entire time I’m riding(that would be annoying) or if I’ve done something else wrong, but that was disappointing. Additionally, I’ve had to tighten the bolts supporting the seat after just a few rides, so I am a little worried about how it will hold up over time. For the price it’s an excellent entry level bike. It’s a smooth ride, quiet enough to use while my partner sleeps and not bother downstairs neighbors, and has eight levels of resistance (I’ve only used it at 2 yet). Very pleased with my experience and the support I received from the seller!

I bought this bike about a month ago and have used it 5 days per week since it arrived. It was easy to assemble, taking my time and following the directions, it took me two about hours. The parts are all fairly substantial, bolts are heavy duty and well machined. There were no issues putting it together. I am in my early seventies and decided, on the advice of a sports medicine doctor, that it would be good exercise for my aging knees. I am six feet tall and find the bike very comfortable with the seat moved back to its furthest position. It also adjusts easily for my much shorter wife. More expensive bikes have more bells and whistles but this one has everything I require. The elapsed time and distance are what I pay most attention to and as I gradually increase the tension, the heart rate monitor will come in handy. Just in passing, the tension adjustment is really simple. So far,I am really pleased with my purchase; the bike is sturdy and whisper quiet and the only unknown will be durability. At this point, I don’t detect any issues that would lead me to believe that it will fail any time soon. If your needs are similar to mine, I have no hesitation in recommending this bike.

Great inexpensive bike. It has a small profile and is easy to move around, but still solid for exercising. I am a 50 year old woman and I put it together myself - only issue was that I didn't have enough strength to pull on the cord for the tension. Otherwise, very east to assemble and is very sturdy to ride on. 8 resistance levels is plenty, regardless of some of the critics.
