For the cost of this item I am very happy, I paid £184.99. It is comfortable and of decent quality, I feel confident that I will get many years of good use from it. The computer is a good feature, but it is unable to take into account the resistance setting you have used (but I wouldn't expect it to for the price), thus calories burned is a very rough estimate. It does give your pulse rate and distance travelled and also times, so it is very useful. It has plenty of resistance variability so it can provide the correct level of difficulty for all people. Being a recumbent bike it gives so much more support, so you can get more exercise without the strains associated with upright bikes.
