Wow!
By impressed (Phoenix) on Mar 24, 2009
Wow is the perfect word for this machine. It wasn't fun to put together just becuase I wanted to used it immediately. It took about 90 minutes for me to get it together. It works flawlessly. I've been using it for just two weeks and I like it more every day. The incline ramp changes the workout a lo... (Read more)

Worth it
By Lady (Abilene KS) on Apr 9, 2009
I have owned this machine for almost a year now. I love it!!! The only thing that I didn't like is having to put it together. My whole family uses it. I went from a size 18/20 to a 10/12 (along with dieting, this is the only excerise I did). This machine is great. My husband and kids use it as... (Read more)

Great Piece of Heavy Duty Equipment
By Amber (WI) on Apr 9, 2009
Very sturdy & smooth. Love all the features. Feels like a real gym quality piece of equipment. Only downfall is the assembly. It's not easy to put together and the weight of the machine makes things a little harder.

I love this machine!
By JoDi (Baltimore, MD) on Apr 9, 2009
I have had the ASR 1000 since the end of December, and it works great - smooth motion and so quiet! It developed a squeak on the right side after about 6 uses, but a little lubricant sprayed on the problem joint solved that problem, and it hasn't squeaked since. I use mine 3x/week for a hour each wo... (Read more)

fantastic deal
By myles (Colo.) on Apr 9, 2009
A bit of a pain to assemble but worth it. Once it was together.Built better then I expected it to be and A once over to tighten the bolts after a week has given me trouble free operation since

MOST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK
By clcruralmichigan (Michigan) on Apr 9, 2009
I have had my ASR 1000 for 6 months and it has been a lifesaver during the snowy Michigan winter. I live in the country and the roads are terrible for walking in the winter. With the ASR 1000, I was able to work out several days a week, at any time of day. I especially utilize the different fitne... (Read more)

THIS MACHINE IS MORE THAN I EXPECTED
By crawfish (BASILE, LA) on Apr 9, 2009
NICE, STURDY & SOLID. BESIDES THE FIGHTING WITH MY HUSBAND WHILE PUTTING IT TOGETHER, I REALIZED HE WAS THE MOST DIFFICULT PART OF THE ASSEMBLY. JUST READ, READ, AND LOOK AT THE DIFFERENT PIECES BEFORE THE ATTEMPT OF ASSEMBLY(MEN)! ANYWAY YES, THE ASR 1000, WAS A GREAT BUY, I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO M... (Read more)

Very good machine for the money
By Health and Fitness Guy (Long Island, NY) on Apr 9, 2009
A very good, solid machine with commercial like quality and stability. If you are serious about exercise, this machine is worth the money. The pulse monitor is not accurate and of poor quality. The video games are for the kids only.

IT IS EVERYTHING I WANTED
By TAMMY MYERS (LOMA LINDA, MO.) on Apr 10, 2009
I AM VERY PLEASED I HAVE USED IT ALMOST EVERYDAY SINCE I GOT IT. I HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY CONSOLE AND THE COMPANY REPLACED IT VERY VERY QUICKLY. I AM VERY HAPPY WITH MY NORDIC TRACK.

By Tomerlegrb (Green Bay, WI) on Apr 12, 2009
I own my ASR100 for a little for 1 1/2 years now. Use it about 5 times a week for about an hour. The rollers (guide the foot steps on the stride) broke 3 times, the display broke, i-fit cards are not recognized, heard rate monitor does not work reliable). The machine is not designed for daily use. C... (Read more)

By T (vallejo, CA) on Apr 12, 2009

love it when it works
By fatcats (Montana) on Apr 12, 2009
I had my elliptical 6 months when the left side came apart inside (flywheel?) My husband was able to fix it. Two months later the right side is starting to do the same. The iFIT card won't always work; the iPod sound system is bad on my machine; but when the whole thing is working, I love it!

It's a very good machine
By Ern (Lake Stevens, WA) on Apr 12, 2009
I had a heart attack a little over a year ago and my doctor wanted me to start an exercise program. I told him I was thinking about an elliptical and he told me that would be an excellent choice. In fact he said that if you are only going to buy one piece of equipment, that the elliptical is the o... (Read more)

Wonderful when it's working
By NDgirl (Hebron, ND) on Apr 15, 2009
I'v had this machine for about 9 months and it worked great until something (a bolt?) on the flywheel broke. It has been down for repairs for two and a half months now (nordictrac customer service was great but the company doing the warranty work is not impressing me). I was very pleased with the ma...

Love getting the exercise at home...
By dodge22 (shippingport, PA) on Apr 20, 2009
rather than having to go to the gym. My boyfriend bought me this for Christmas, and was sure I wouldn't use it everyday. He thought the novelty would wear off. Once I got in the habit of using it everyday, I hate if I have to miss a day...it has become part of my daily routine, and it shows!! Al... (Read more)

I Love it!!
By MsLovely707 (Fairfield, CA) on Jun 14, 2009
I was so excited about receiving this product and it did not let me down. I used it everyday and made a rule in my house that if you walked past it...you had to use it. The only problem I had was when putting it together we put the bottom on slightly to the left and it wore out one of the wheels s... (Read more)

Love it but difficult to put together
By AC (San Francisco, CA) on Jun 30, 2009
My husband and I just put it together over the weekend and I thought he was going to divorce me. I am so happy that he knew what he was doing for the most part and had special tools to tighten the screws. Very difficult to put together and not very well explained at all. Took about 3 hours. I do... (Read more)
