Cubii JR1, Under Desk Elliptical, Under Desk Bike Pedal Exerciser, Seated Elliptical, Work from Home Fitness, Mini Elliptical Machines for Home Use, Cubii Exerciser for Seniors, Desk Exercise

This exerciser is well made, sturdy, and quiet. I like being able to exercise from the comfort of our couch. I use it during commercials while watching TV. It is heavy enough to stay in place, yet easy to move with the built-in handle. I can set the resistance I want easily by turning a dial.

The Cubii has been a godsend. I am a 70 year old, currently residing in an assisted living facility, and cannot walk due to arthritis in both knees and severe edema issues in my left leg from cancer surgery. I have been in therapy for months and have made improvements in standing but still cannot walk. Insurance issues (Medicare could use some improvement) have left me with only one therapy session per week so I had to find some exercise I could use on a daily basis to build strength and endurance. I showed an internet video of the Cubii to my therapist and he thought it would be helpful but had no patients currently using it so he had questions. I took a flyer, bought one, and it has been all the ads say and more. I'll list the benefits and concerns: BENEFITS: Very easy to set up (4 screws, that's it) Sturdy - I am a big guy and worried if it would be flimsy. Not at all - a real quality product Easy to use - I have size 13 shoe and my feet fit easily in the foot pads. Set the resistance level you want ( start with 0 ) and pedal Exercise Benefit - your knees move up and down as you pedal building strength in quads, glutes, and hamstrings along with working your cardio. This was the issue my therapist was most concerned about but he is very high on the Cubii and has recommended it to a few patients since I bought mine. CONCERNS: Cost - $249 may seem like a lot but you pay for quality - well worth it Mobility - there is a handle you can use to pick it, but it is 25 lbs so be aware if that is a problem for you Sliding - I use it on a hardwood floor and if I did not buy the pad as an accessory it would be a problem. With the pad, sliding is not an issue. If you don't have some kind of traction already I recommend buying the pad, but it is another $29. No idea how it would act on carpeting. Overall I am SOLD on the Cubii. When I started I was only able to do sets of 20-25 reps and within 2 weeks (after warming up) am now up to sets of 100-150 reps. No question my legs are stronger. Will It result in my being able to walk again? That remains to be seen, but if I do make it, the Cubii will be a big part of that success.

Set up was simple and straightforward enough. The machine seems to be quite sturdy though it is also heavy for people who aren't as strong as they used to be. The pedals glide very smoothy and resistance is easy to change. And the counter is nice to have too. It's a convenient way to get the circulation moving when other types of exercise aren't feasible. It's a bit overpriced, imo, but at least it seems to be well-made. With 2 of us using it, we'll see how durable it is ...

This thing is TRULY silent!!!!! You hear NOTHING!! It’s NOT cheaply made. Heavy duty, solid. So easy to assemble. Pedals only. And if you have joint issues or bad knees/hips, THIS. Is for YOU! Delivered fast! Watching Superbowl and helping circulation at the same time. Add some dumbbells to step it up a bit. GREAT purchase! Don’t hesitate, get it!

Sadly, walking for pleasure is no longer a pleasure but painful so I bought this to strengthen my legs to prepare for bilateral knee replacements. It did take awhile for me to adjust and it slide some and I would just have to move it closer. Rapidly increasing the resistance, I (age 65) now do 3000 rotations in about an hour per day. I can tell a difference in my leg strength along with some improvement in the range of motion. Adding 2 pound weights in each hand helps me get a better workout and can get my heart rate to 124+ which is my target heart rate for a cardio workout .Significantly overweight and with severe osteoarthritis, this has helped tremendously and will use it until I get the knee replacements so I can navigate the stairs to my upright elliptical. It is quiet and seems to be sturdy. The stride length is a little less than I would have liked but I can adjust my distance from my chair to the elliptical. It is a tad heavy to move but I can easily more it from one room to my deck if I want to workout outside. For me, well worth the money.

Day one, easy to install the 2 foot pedals using 4 screws. I played with the different settings and I found it to feel similar to riding a bike. Since I am out of shape I definitely had cardio reaction within 5 minutes and I was running short of breath. And I could feel a little workout in the legs. Easy to sit on the couch and watch tv while using it. Easy to play on a phone too. Negative is it slides. I have it on an area rug and it easily moves it.

This is my second Cubii.. I got my first one when they first came out.. pleasantly surprised to see the product has actually improved from the original design..I loved it before but this thing is awesome.. it took less than 5 minutes to assemble four screws total and comes with nice screwdriver.. very easy 👌. That's it.. put it in place and off you go. I work from home so I need something to keep me moving.. This is it.. the design is well thought out and clearly geared for someone who wants to be able to read or work as they pedal. The motion is very smooth.. no moving around or side to side stuff.. The design works your calf muscles well so you get the added bonus of from Soleus calf muscle engagement... That means a lot of glucose use! Great for people looking to manage blood sugar 👌... Also very very quiet and smooth. No issues with being on a zoom call. Highly recommended.

Stride length much shorter than expected, so for me, strained knee cap area already Originally purchased for 96 yr old mom with stress fracture and worked well with wheelchair bike. Not recommending to his Elliptical, cannot reach nor properly place pressure as needed to turn pedal as needed. Quiet. Heavy, so doesn’t move but hard to lift. Will look for other products to help mom.
