Ironman 600e

At first sight, Ironman 600e is an interesting elliptical trainer that differs in design from other models on the market. This "looks like a stepper" machine is packed with features that will appeal to a big percentage of elliptical trainer buyers and is a good competitor in low-priced part of the market.

Construction is the first thing that makes this model special in it's price range, with a life time warranty on frame. You'll feel smooth motion without waddling or shaking even during simultaneous upper and lower body workout. 600e has 6 exercising programs that will take you through some serious strains, but you can simply change the resistance intensity manually, making your workout a bit easier. It's nice to see that stride length is 19", which suits even the tallest users.

All in all, this is a valuable machine for medium intensity workouts. You won't have a problem with workout variety, but be sure to take an extended warranty because Ironman Fitness has a problem with low quality components.
