The disappointing news from our most recent tests is that a number of machines had problems, from annoying ¡§clunking¡¨ sounds to mechanical failures that seriously affected performance. Our findings
so suggest that you get what you pay for, especially if you work out frequently. Ellipticals that cost $2,000 and up were well-built and felt stable to our testers, more like the $5,000 machines at gy

Tips for buying elliptical :
-Try it out first. Every model is a little different, so you shouldn't buy one before using it in the store. That's especially important with elliptical exercisers bec
ause the movement is less familiar than walking or running, and each machine has a slightly different pedaling profile.
-Decide which features you'll use. Some, such as exercise programs, can make
a workout more varied and less boring, which may get you on the machine more often. But don't pay for frills you don't care about.
-Consider your space. Elliptical exercisers, most of which do no
t fold and are hard to move, take up as much floor space as a couch.
-Make sure you can change your mind. Understand the store¡¦s return policies.

The effort to make exercise interesting and as pain-free as possible has led to an array of features. One useful device found on most ellipticals is electronic programming that automatically increases
or decreases the workout's intensity, the way running up and down real hills does outdoors. You can also make the adjustments manually. On the gimmicky side, a growing number of ellipticals load the
console with gadgets such as fans, a CD player, and a cubbyhole for a TV remote.
