Our Opinion of the Nautilus NE3000 Elliptical Trainer

The Nautilus NE 3000 is a higher-end elliptical trainer that's capable of light-commercial use. So it should provide a long trouble free life as a home elliptical trainer. It's a rugged machine with a feature-rich console. The NE 3000 has Nautilus’s “V-Force™ Plus” which is a self powering system so no more power cords to trip over or batteries to replace. The NE 3000 also has “SyncLink™” articulating foot platforms that track the natural movements of your feet through the elliptical motion. The frame is made from commercial-grade steel for maximum durability. The fingertip controls allow you to adjust the resistance of your workout without moving your hands from the upper body arms, allowing total concentration on your workout. With a RRP of £1999 the NE3000 isn’t cheap. However, this is a classic case “of getting what you pay for”.

All Nautilus elliptical trainers have 3 years parts warranty and 1 years labour warranty which means that in the unlikely event of any problems a Nautilus service engineer will visit you and carry out any necessary repairs. This type of warranty is far more desirable than a return to base warranty and reflects the faith Nautilus have in the quality of their product.

Elliptical Trainer Purchase Guide

The elliptical trainer first entered the market in 1995 and has been in constant development since. Reebok introduced the first elliptical trainer with moving arms giving the user a lower and upper body workout. Elliptical trainers have become so popular because:

• Low impact exercise, which is gentle on backs, knees, hips and joints.
• Weight bearing exercise that helps build bone density and burns calories efficiently.
• Suitable for a large range of training needs.
• Low maintenance, keeping costs down.
• Smaller in size than a treadmill.

We have outlined a few essential tips to bear in mind when purchasing an Elliptical / Crosstrainer.


What is your budget?

Elliptical trainers vary in price enormously depending on the features and design. A high end elliptical trainer can cost upwards of £2500, although not everyone can or wants to spend £2500 on a elliptical trainer! As with most exercise equipment you get what you pay for, basic elliptical trainers start from £150. Many of the elliptical trainers on sale nowadays have features found on commercial models and will last you years.
Generally the more expensive the elliptical trainer the heavier the flywheel and the more features it has. A heavier fly wheel will generally provide a smoother operation.


How much space do you have?

When purchasing an elliptical trainer it is always best to measure the space in which you intend the elliptical trainer to live, you do not want to find that it does not fit in your desired space once it has been delivered. Reputable websites such as http://www.exerciseequipment.co.uk display all the dimensions of the equipment it sells on the product details page. Most elliptical trainers are motorised and will require a power socket nearby.


Always check what warranty comes with the elliptical trainer?

All the elliptical trainers sold on http://www.exerciseequipment.co.uk come with a minimum 1 year parts and labour warranty. All of the brands that http://www.exerciseequipment.co.uk represent provide comprehensive warranties. You do not want to have an elliptical trainer which you are liable to send back to the supplier if it has a fault. Manufacturers such as Tunturi provide a 15 year frame warranty and two year warranties on the other components.

What are programmes and how do they benefit me?

It is often difficult to motivate yourself when you’re often using the same routine! Purchasing a elliptical trainer with programmes maybe the answer. Having pre-set or even customisable workout programmes is a great way to provide some extra variety and motivation. Some of the more expensive elliptical trainers, such as the Tunturi C60 now offer heart rate controlled programmes which using your heart rate, increase or decrease the resistance of the elliptical trainer keeping your heart rate as close as possible to the pre-set rate. This is a safe way to exercise and can help with weight loss.

How is the resistance level adjustable?

Cheaper elliptical trainers resistance is adjusted manually. With most of theelliptical trainers on http://www.exerciseequipment.co.uk resistance is changed by an electromagnet. Magnetic resistance elliptical machines are generally smoother in operation and have fewer moving parts and so are less likely to break down.

Our Opinion of the Bremshey Explorer C Crosstrainer

Bremshey Control T Treadmill is voted “Best Buy” in “Which” magazine

The Bremshey Control T Treadmill which is the same as the Bremshey Pacer T Treadmill accept for the orthopaedic running mat has just been awarded “Best Buy” status in “Which” magazine. Have a look at the review of the Bremshey Control T Treadmill online here .

Our Opinion of the Bremshey Pacer T Treadmill

The Bremshey Pacer T treadmill has a larger running area than the Trail T treadmill as well as a larger motor, resulting in a smoother action and higher top speed of 12.5 mph and more programs. There are other advantages such as the hand rail speed and incline controls, allowing you to make adjustments without removing your hands from the handgrips. The Pacer T treadmill also comes complete with a heart rate strap allowing you to take full advantage of the heart rate controlled program. The Bremshey Pacer T treadmill is effectively the same as the Bremshey Control T treadmill without the orthopedic mat, and so offers excellent value for money.

All Bremshey treadmills come with a manufacturer’s 2 years parts and labour warranty.
So, in the unlikely event of any problems, a Bremshey service engineer will arrange a visit to carry out any necessary repairs on site. This is a significant improvement on the more usual return to base warranty and reflects Bremshey's faith in their product.

Our Opinion of the Tunturi C60 Crosstrainer

The latest Tunturi C60 elliptical trainer is the top of the “Performance” range with an updated console a 3.8 inch full colour display which means it’s easy to read whilst working out. There is a jog wheel below the screen (like on the newer BMW's) which you use to navigate through the menu. Once you’ve found the program you want you simply push the button of the jog wheel it’s so simple and it looks great.

The C60 is extremely smooth in operation and the resistance changes are quiet, as a result of the electromagnetic system which is used in the C60, C80, and C85 top range models. This is defiantly going to be one of the more popular products from Tunturi as it is know such a sophisticated value package.

All Tunturi crosstrainers come with a manufacturer’s 15 year frame warranty and all other components are covered with a 2 years parts and labour warranty.

You can extend the parts warranty on all components to 3 years by registering your product free of charge with Tunturi on their website.

This means that in the unlikely event of any problems a Tunturi service engineer will visit you and carry out any necessary repairs. This type of warranty is far more desirable than a return to base warranty and reflects the faith Tunturi have in the quality of their product.
