Amazon.com Product Description Limited in space but still want a great cardiovascular workout? Look no further than the Stamina InStride electronic stepper, which offers a footprint of only 12 inches wide by 16 inches long. As a result, you can use your InStride stepper just about anywhere--in front of the TV, while on the phone, in your sunroom, outside on the patio, or even at work. The InStride stepper is even small enough to toss into a workout bag and take on vacation. The stepper is equipped with two hydraulic cylinders that create a stepping motion similar to those of commercial stair steppers. As you step, you work your calves, thighs, buttocks, and core while boosting your cardio, helping you burn calories and fat. The InStride's battery-operated multifunction fitness monitor, meanwhile, times each workout and counts the number of steps, so you can stay motivated and on track to reach your fitness goals. Construction details include a steel frame and wide, textured foot pedals for stability. The InStride, which weighs 20 pounds, carries a one-year warranty on the frame and a 90-day warranty on parts. About Stair Steppers Stair steppers continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same benefits as running stairs, but with the "any time, in any weather, without having to leave the comfort and safety of your home" convenience. Stair steppers don't take up much space, require moderate balance and coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. Following on the heels of treadmills and exercise bikes, stair steppers took their first step towards fitness machine success in the early 1980s. Like most exercise equipment, stair steppers have come a long way technically speaking. For example, advanced computers on most new models allow users to track their vitals at a glance. However, the most crucial benefits of stair steppers remain the impacts of cardiovascular and muscle tone fitness. Stair steppers continue to offer an exercise that is less jarring than treadmills, but more intense than elliptical trainers.

I loved it until... January 28, 2006 galleywest (here. Ha ha.) 28 out of 28 found this review helpful
It broke. Twice. The first one I sent back. Customer service was good, delivery of a new item was prompt, which is why this gets two stars instead of one from me. It broke a second time, however, and I give up. The first time the piston part got stuck and impeded the stepping motion. The second time the cord that goes around the rotary disc broke. Argh!
For the price and convenience, it's great! January 18, 2007 SLJ (NJ USA) 24 out of 25 found this review helpful
I have owned this about two weeks and I happen to love it. I bought it to leave near my computer to remind me to get up and move a bit! It feels GREAT when you are done. I have not had any trouble at all with mine. It has even encouraged my 12 yr old to get movin' on it! I think it is very sturdy and it is heavy, yet it is compact enough to move to a closet! I'm very pleased with the purchase!
Not bad if you have a can WD-40 around. October 9, 2007 X. kuang (S Cal. USA) 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
After 2 weeks using it for 4-5 times per week & 45 minutes each time, this unit works great. The squeaking noise was little annoying but it went away after I WD-40ed it. For those of you couldn't figure out how to oil this thing, the cable connectors were creating the squeaking sound. Find the two cable ends & just WD-40 them, the sound should go away.
Best Stepper Ever August 8, 2007 S. Shrader (Frederick, MD USA) 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
I love working out; I have a gym membership and both a gazelle and the Stamina InStride Stepper at the house. I run, I hike, my boyfriend thinks I'm crazy. I like this stepper better than the expensive ones at the gym. Its sturdy yet portable, and unlike most pieces of exercise equipment, this one really can easily be stowed anywhere. Its great for in front of the TV. I've owned my stepper for about 6 monthes now and the only issue I've had is that it needed a little WD-40 (it was squeaking). You can definitely feel it in your thighs after a good workout. I'd recommend it to anyone. For an added boost, buy a couple weighted balls to hold during your workouts.
SQUEEEEEAAAKKKKY!!!!! March 20, 2007 Pepper Farris (Seattle, WA) 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
The physical aspect of this steppers' performance is great, but I can't use the thing because it squeaks so loudly. I've dried WD-40, and 1 other product, but I can't get it to stop squeaking. As for my experience overall, I would have to say it was a waste of money, and if you can find another one with better reviews, TAKE IT!!
