Good Amazon Review

I’ve had it for about a month and I’m actually quite happy with it.
It really is pretty sturdy, I wouldn’t have thought it possible on a folding model.
The intensity dial seems to work well, and I find the amount of resistance well-balanced. It’s also almost completely quiet.

Bad Amazon Review

Everything about the exercise bike is fine except for it not being possible to lower the seat sufficiently to enable my wife, who is 5 feet 1 inch in height, to operate the pedals. So, use of the machine is limited to me whereas the intention was for both of us to use it.

Good

In love this bike. It feels really sturdy and the seat is so much more comfortable than I expected. The hardest level is a moderate-high effort but it may frustrate those with really high levels of fitness who want a pasting!” – Briony

Bad

The only issue is the pin to hold it in the folded position wouldn’t fit through the hole, but that’s a minor quibble, we both think it’s great…” – George

Extras

For those looking for extra comfort when exercising there is the option to buy the model with a backrest. However, this does cost a little bit more but definitely worth it.
