Last Piece of Equipment Needed 4 the Basement Gym
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This review will be broken down into two parts: Installation/Delivery & use of the product. Installation/Delivery: Firstly, I am so happy to currently be a member of the Total Tech Membership. As a result, I was able to get this bike for $500. That $500 included not only the bike, but also the delivery AND installation. I ordered the bike about a week ago and set up delivery/install for Friday 1.21.22. The two guys that came to complete the bike delivery and set up were AWESOME! I think we were their last delivery on Friday as they called and said they were driving back from Sheboygan then to Green Bay to pick up bike, then up to Door County. Even though I could tell they had a LONG day these two guys were EXCEPTIONAL. They came in brought the bike downstairs and happily went to work on putting it together. They got the whole thing together and rocking and rolling in about 40 minutes (totally worth me not doing it b/c I'm sure it would've taken me much longer). They gave me a tutorial on use and took everything away. Both of these guys deserve a TEN out of TEN for their efforts & hard work (even on a late Friday night). Thanks MUCH to them Use of Product: my wife did a ride yesterday on the bike and I used it this morning before work. The product is SUPER easy to use and it is VERY VERY QUIET (you can hardly hear it running). I love that they have user profiles that keep track of your workouts and overall distances that you bike (it allows 4 profiles). This bike has a great display for your workouts and it has plenty of choices for programs. It also has a fan and though I haven't used it yet it has a USB port and speakers for listening to what you'd like (I am an ear buds kind of guy). When using the bike it is VERY comfortable (I'm 5'10') and the seat moves with ease. This was the perfect last piece of exercise equipment we needed for our basement gym and it provides a good workout without major stress on the body. I would HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone who is on the fence about buying it. The bike (as you can see in the pictures) does not take up that much room compared to other pieces of cardio equipment as well which is a bonus.

Perfect after Mom's knee replacement!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Mom needed an exercise bike to keep her knee moving and this fit the bill perfectly. Very easy to put together. I did it in about an hour. It is very quiet which makes it good for the TV room. I would definitely recommend for ongoing therapy.

Schwinn 270 Recumbent Bike
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The bike was delivered on the day and time promised by the carrier. I opted to assemble the bike myself. It was fairly easy. At one point my wife had to hold up the handlebars while I connected the internal cables for the display. I've had the bike 3 weeks now. There are plenty of programs to get a variety of workouts, or you can opt to go manually and set your own pace. It has a comfortable seat. This bike is great and and I highly recommend it.

This does not have an app nor is it a current mode
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this Exercise bike not too long ago and gave it a good couple weeks of use. The app it claimed to have, that connected it with other health/fitness apps no longer exist. The secondary app which is supposed to allow you to update the firmware of the unit doesn’t even recognize this machine. My iPhone and other devices do not find any Bluetooth broadcast from this unit either. While, i think its a pretty well made product for the price and easy to use for simple work outs; Be aware this unit is a 2016 model, and does not do all the interactive things it claims. Lastly, the heart-rate monitor grips are a little low and awkward, and are definitely inaccurate. Just be aware. Its not a piece of junk, but it does have flaws. If you live in or near Brentwood, Ca , you can get the unit i returned in mint condition at an open box price. Already assembled, by yours truly!

Daily work out
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great bike if you have scoliosis or back problems. Definitely a good pick and it pairs nicely with a big tv next to it. Bluetooth and apps don't work, heart beat thing isn't very accurate but the main point is it does what your body needs it to do.

Great Exercise Bike
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am really glad I purchased this exercise bike. I paid the extra fee for assembly and was happy with the service. The bike is sturdy, easy to use, and presents many opportunities for challenging levels and programs. I have had back surgery and the adjustable recumbent position prevents back pain. I placed it in my den/TV room so I can easily watch TV while cycling. Also I like to use the small shelf to place a book or pod cast video while on the bike. My gym closed permanently due to the pandemic so this allows me to keep fit conveniently at home. The only negative is the heart rate tracker doesn't really pick up. Overall very happy with this bike!

Q: QuestionDoes the 270 come assembled?
Asked by BillyB.
- A:Answer It is in a large box. You will need to assemble it. The main base is already assembled. You assemble the seat and peddles and handles etc. I just finished my assembly. I am over 60 years and it took me the best part of 2 hrs by myself. I took my time. The bolts are in a numbered wrapped shrink wrapped board. It has the tools except you may want a pair of scissors and box cutter - Instructions are mainly pictures but you really do not need much.
