As far as the assembly-all of the other reviews are correct. It is easy to assemble etc., etc. My problem is that I have used this bike for a total of 23 days. On most days I have burned 900 calories per day. Low and behold I need a new bike because there are some rubber pieces/ashes falling out of the bottom of the "wheel", and now every time I pedal there is an annoying jerk that occurs, which messes up my speed/time. You probably want to invest money in this item only if you are going to "pretend" to get some excercise.

This bike is great for working out in front of the tv. Easy to move when I want it out of the way. I agree that the highest tension setting is still not very tough but it is just right for me. I bought the Sunlite Cloud Nine Gel Bicycle Seat Cover, for Cruiser or Exercise Bikes to go with it and it fits perfectly. The seat is still painful even with the padded cover but I guess that's the way it goes with bikes. Good value for the price. It was also pretty easy to put together.

I am a type two diabetic, and had heard how good biking was for your blood sugar. Since I have started using this bike, my blood sugar has Dramatically reduced! I still need my meds, but hopefully someday I will not. This bike is small, and very quiet most of the time. I have had mine for about a month, using it almost everyday, and sometimes when I get started, it will squeak. It doesn't last long, but it does it. Also like many of the other people on here, the seat is so uncomfortable!! It is very hard, and if you don't have alot of "natural padding" back there, it hurts, pretty bad. I put a towel and a sweatshirt on the seat, and still hurt. I'm getting used to it though. Other than those complaints, it's a great bike. I will continue to use mine for as long as it will last.

I like that it is compact and can be moved around easily. Seat needs a little more padding. Quiet ride, does the job. Worth the money.

I've had this bike for under a month now and the entire household loves it. My 11 year old pedals away while watching TV. My husband has a music stand set high up to hold his computer and exercises while reading his email. I catch up on TV or books. It was really easy to put together. (I'm just okay at assembling things and I had it done it an hour. Everything was marked and matched the pictures.) It doesn't take up much room. It's quiet and it just works. Even the little computer works fine--it's the generic exercise computer that seems to be on all inexpensive exercise machine these days. I've had exercise bikes that cost 2 to 3 times what this one did, and did not work as well. I'm very surprised and very happy. Thanks to all who posted thoughtful and helpful reviews. (I bought the bike and a gel seat at the same time because of them.)
