I did a lot of research before settling on this AFG 3.1 AE elliptical machine. This machine is highly rated by Consumer Reports, comparing it to machines that are over three-thousand dollars. A top requirement for me was a high quality, sturdy machine. According to Consumer Reports this is the best one-thousand dollar machine that they rated. A quick trip to the local Sears for a test drive confirmed that for me. This elliptical machine can be purchased at Sears and directly from the AFG website in addition to here at Amazon. The prices were all the same at the time of my purchase.
Installation instructions were nearly perfect. After placing all the parts out on the floor, I was able to put this elliptical together while watching a Steelers football game. I even took time out to eat during halftime. The packaging of the nuts and bolts is excellent. Each step in the installation process is separately packaged.
One point of confusion was the statement to connect all three wires going into the display panel. One flat connection had to be made to the printed wiring board plus three other wire to wire connections. Just go ahead and connect all wires coming out of the base.
The only other installation issue was when you have to put a rubber boot over the area where the handles meet the base. Just use force to push it on and it will eventually slide over the bottom of the arms.
You are going to want to build this where it is going to sit because it it heavy. The box says 225 lbs and it feels like it. I used a dolly to get it into my house from the car. If you are going to load it into your car to bring it home from Sears, note that the box is 50" x 23" x 32". Once installed, the footprint is 73" x 23". It comes with a standard 3-pronged six-foot power cord that connects to the front of the machine.
I cannot speak to its long term reliability, but I will update this review if needed later on. I can tell you that this unit is sturdy and does not rock or move while you are riding it. It appears to be a high quality, heavy machine. I will not repeat all the features you can read about on the AFG website. At this point I am very happy with this AFG 3.1 AE elliptical.

I have had this machine for 2 months. After a few days of use it started making funny noises and I could no longer change the resistance. A tech came out and it needed the fly wheel and magnetic brakes replaced. 2 weeks later the parts arrived at my door and I had to wait another week for the tech to come out to install the parts. I'm 2 months in and the machine has started making the same noises again.....

We searched around and this was by far the best value and quality for the money we were looking to spend. As close as commercial grade gym equipment as you will find in this price range. The 2 stride settings are perfect.
