Product Description
With its comfortable, compact design and 8 workout programs developed to help you reach your fitness goals, the Schwinn 430 Elliptical Trainer lets you make an impact where you want one! The comfortable 18-in stride and BioFit articulating footplates provide a smooth and natural elliptical motion, and the easy-to-read LCD display lets you keep track of your progress.

Product Description
Ideal for the home gym for fitness enthusiasts of any skill level, the Schwinn 430 Elliptical Trainer provides an effective cardiovascular workout by combining upper and lower body flexibility and coordination into one impact-free motion. Elliptical trainers emulate the natural motion of your foot while supporting your heel throughout the stride, making them much easier on your knees and joints. In addition to feeling more natural while working out, regular use on elliptical trainers will increase heart and lung capacity while improving your health (and burning calories at the same time).

The Schwinn 430 offers eight computer-controlled resistance levels and eight workout programs for workout variety, including six user-profile programs, one manual, and one calorie goal program. Its quick start functions allows you to easily change your resistance level while exercising to challenge yourself to the next level. Three feedback programs--recovery mode, results mode, and body mass index (BMI)--allow you to track the progress of your workout routine. BioGlide motion technology offers a natural-feeling 18-inch stride while the trainer's BioFit design will provide a comfortable feel on the footpads and handlebars. The handlebars also feature grip heart rate monitoring which allows you to track your heart rate while you're exercising.

Additional features of the Schwinn 430 elliptical trainer include Eddy current brake resistance for smooth and quiet stopping, transport wheels to easily move the trainer across the room, and a water bottle holder to keep your hydration source close by. This elliptical trainer has a compact footprint 62 inches long by 27 inches wide by 64 inches tall.

The Schwinn 430 Elliptical Trainer features eight resistance levels and eight programs for a challenging workout.

About Elliptical Trainers
Elliptical trainers represent the next wave of advancement in low-impact cardiovascular exercise machines and continue to grow in popularity. By simulating motions experienced through walking, stepping, cycling, and skiing, elliptical machines allow for a smooth and fluid motion while building strength in the arms and legs. Similar to the exercise position for treadmills, elliptical trainers are used by standing in an upright position while holding the handrails of the machine. With elliptical trainers, however, your feet remain in the foot pedals throughout the exercise regimen and circulate in a smooth and seamless motion, resulting in little to no impact on the knees, back, and hips.

Elliptical trainers are compatible for all ages and fitness levels and allow you to select the difficulty level through the incline and intensity settings. Additionally, elliptical trainers allow you to determine the complexity of your workout based on your needs, all while listening to music, watching television, or reading a magazine while exercising in the comfort and safety of your own home.

Although different types of elliptical trainers offer an assortment of features, many of them include an array of challenging programs, forward and reverse directional movement, EKG grip pulse handles, a lightweight portable design with easy fold-up capability, and a monitor displaying calories burned, distance, speed, time, and heart rate. Other types of exercise machines, namely treadmills and bikes, offer excellent cardiovascular exercise and muscular training for the legs in a forward-motion exercise. Elliptical trainers take this to the next level by offering an upper and lower body workout with dual motion, challenging and diverse programs, and a low-impact exercise machine that won't strain sensitive joints.

5 out of 5 stars Worth every penny!   July 19, 2008
I've only used this machine for the past couple days, but it's one of the best investments I've ever made. I have never owned an elliptical so I could have paid much more for a higher end machine. All of the positive reviews here on Amazon helped me to decide to go middle of the road and choose this product. Assembly went easily, the machine looks great and rides smooth and quiet.

I hope I get years of service from this elliptical!



1 out of 5 stars Does not work   July 15, 2008
We purchased our EL 430 and loved it at first. We thought it was a great machine and felt we were getting a great workout with it. However, after 14 months of use the machine broke. It was not tracking your speed and calories. I called the 1-800# and was told it was the speed sensor. They mailed a new one with instructions on replacing it. However, the new one does not work either. Upon disassembling the machine, we noticed the magnet that used to be attached to the wheel had fallen off and was stuck to the bottom of the machine. After placing it back in the correct spot...it still did not work. After reading other reviews, we noticed others were having the same problem. I would not recommend this product to a friend.


5 out of 5 stars The Schwinn 430 is a Precor competitor   July 9, 2008
I bought a Precor for 3gs 7 years ago. It was a wonderful machine. I had to down size my living style and moved from a large house into a small apartment. I was forced to sell my Precor. I have since moved into a house again. I went to Sears, and spent several minutes on 4 different machines (the normal brands sears carries). I decided the Schwinn was the best one, so I bought it. After six weeks, I am very pleasantly surprised. I like this machine better than my Precor. I use it 4 times a week for 20-60 minutes each time. It doesn't take up as much space as the Precor. At first, it had a few squeaks, but after tweaking (loosening some screws, that I had too tight), it is smooth and quiet. I would definitely recommend this machine. I weighed 215, so it can handle a lot of weight


5 out of 5 stars Best bang for your hard earned doller!   July 5, 2008
We had this delivered early morning and within 3 hours I had it
put together and all the packing material discarded. EASY to assemble
with simple instructions to boot.

For a home workout this is probably one of the best buy's out there.

After discounts and delivery we paid $439.00



5 out of 5 stars Schwinn 430 Elliptical   July 4, 2008
Definitely get your money's worth with this product. The price was right. Assembly was straight forward, even for a computer programmer. The motion is smooth and the machine is relatively quiet. I have used this machine while other people are sleeping in the house.
