Default Need help purchasing elliptical

So guess what guys!?!?I'm getting an elliptical with my tax money! I've been doing jumping jacks etc lately and my knees/ankles just can't take it anymore. I was looking on overstock, etc. and found some good potentials.. I want to spend not much over $200 or less... it doesn't have to be fancy or ridiculous or anything...anyone know of a good brand/style?

i agree with haleyislove!!! i purchased mine with last year's tax money and went to walmart. i ended ignoring the online reviews and purchased a gold's gym one. DONT!!!! i was able to use it maybe 4 times before it starting making this horrid creaking noise. i can have my ipod up as loud as it can go and still am able to hear it. it is now in an extra bed room as we have been unable to fix it i wish i had gone through craigslist...o well, lesson learned, i guess!! good luck finding one, it was great having one at thome while it worked

If you were in MD I'd just sell you mine. I bought it off of overstock, it was about $200.

Its this one:

But for some reason the prices has gone up...

They have tonnes of clearance prices right now at walmart.. I went to Canadian Tire (i am canadian obviously) and got one regular 369.99 for 99.99 which also doubles a stair stepper..Good luck with your search.. They are so worth it!
