Comments about Schwinn 250 Recumbent Bike:
My husband and I (both over 275 lbs) got the bike to start our fitness routine. The bike is perfect! Super easy set up, easy to use, like that I can plug in the mp3 player for some tunes while I work. We both have our own profile so we can keep up with our workouts. I don't think we could be happier. It's SUPER nice on days like today when it is 52 and pouring rain!

Comments about Schwinn 250 Recumbent Bike:
I live in the mountains, and it would take me an hour just to get to a gym so I do everything at home. I got this to give me another option of cardio aside from the eliptical on days when I really only did have 30 minutes to work out. I love it. My wife loves it. Having a low impact option that runs quiet and smooth is great and it has kept us on our weight-loss goals. I am a big guy of 290lbs or at least I was when I got it and it's the best stationary bike I've ever used. I'm the kind of guy that my body only reacts if I do something every day and this is great for a quick workout when I dont want to the big long rigorous routine. My wife says her knees feel better than they have since she was a teenager
