Be Cautious
This is the consumer version of the Nautilus Treadclimber. It's smaller than the Nautilus machine but otherwise very similar.
24 Hour Fitness gyms bought a bunch of these a few years back and introduced them with great fanfare.
The good news - excellent workout. Far better than treadmills or ellipticals in my experience.
The bad news - they were all recalled after most wore out.
Nautilus introduced a new improved version. Again - excellent workout. Sadly, again, most wore out.
Hopefully someday Nautilus/Bowflex will solve all the problems and release a version 3 that lasts. Till then, given the "no labor" and the short hydraulic warranty I'd be very cautious about purchasing one.
