Hi Susan,
I do own my own elliptical. I spend the winter in Florida and my gym here has one. When I go home to Indiana, my gym there does not have one. I do like it. I have a Precor. They are quite expensive but I feel you get a really good workout on them and they are really are the latest thing. That is why I don't understand why my gym at home does not have any. They seem to have all the other latest equipment. Like any other exercise equipment, I am not quite as challenged to use it at home as at the gym....Also, they are quite large if you don't have a lot of room. I have a finished basement so I have mine there so it is not a problem. Hope that helps.
