Pooboo Recumbent Exercise Bike: Magnetic Stationary Bike for Seniors' Home Workouts

Amazon Customer: This bike was very easy for my husband to put together for me. Having balance issues, I'm unlikely to get on a bicycle outside and ride because of a fear of falling. The seat is comfortable, and I'm enjoying riding this bike while watching TV or listening to music. It's very quiet and smooth.

Annie: Like large back support but a little flimsy.

Pam RadunzPam Radunz: I have nothing but praise for the bike, your company and your timelines! I was missing a cord to the display. I contacted the company and in no time at all I received it. The bike is easy to put together, comfortable to use, and easy to move around. It has done wonders for my knee issues by strengthening and range of motion. Even my COTA daughter and 19 yrs old athletic daughter were impressed with the quality. The price for what you get is amazing. I also like the color!

Jeremy Basset: While obviously an entry-level piece of equipment, and priced accordingly, it does exactly what I need it to do. Leg strengthening/toning and cardio workout is what I need as a mid-60's person who had successful heart bypass surgery and has Type 2 diabetes. Just to be clear, for me it is not about weight loss - so I can't comment on its use for that...I am just trying to stay fit using a piece of equipment suitable to my age while not putting pressure on my lower back.
The simple console records the essentials, without the (pricier) display on higher-end bikes; the manual adjustment - to allow my (shorter) wife to workout - requires a little effort; but, again, it is as advertised for this bike and is easily done by either of us. The bike feels solid to sit on and also when ridden energetically. The shelf on the console for a smartphone or tablet is a nice touch, even if it does cover up the digital display.
I had a problem with the first bike delivered and contacted the seller immediately. After a bit of a hiccup in communication, they aggressively worked to help me sort it out. When they couldn't resolve the issue, they took the initiative to replace the bike immediately....

who: The product came well packaged and assembly was no problem. Our use of the bike is to get some exercise on cold icy winter days when we don't want to go outside. This bike should fit our needs well. If each of us weighed 180 pounds or more and planned to pedal hard and long each day I do not know how it would stand up over time but it will serve our purpose of moderate use for maintenance of muscle tone.
We are still satisfied with this product but I am adding information to this review as a warning to those who rely on the number of 5 star ratings a product gets to help them decide which product to buy: After purchasing the bike I received an email from Pooboo telling me they would send me a $20 gift certificate if I reviewed the product. I reviewed the product (with a 4 star rating) and gave them an address where they could send the gift certificate. I was informed that the $20 was only available to those giving a 5 star rating. I replied that my ratings are not for sale. Their next email let me know that they would send the $20 gift certificate if I removed the above review. As you can see that review stands. My ratings are not for sale but I bet some of the 5 star ratings...
