It can be quite a challenge sorting through all the different elliptical machines on the market. How then to find the best home elliptical machine?

We will be adding product reviews to this site over time that will attempt to be unbiased and based on real feedback from real users. In addition to these reviews of specific elliptical machines, here are some general guidelines to keep in mind:

The first consideration of course is how much you want to pay. The price for the best elliptical machines can range between $1000 and $3000 dollars, so you will have to decide if you are really looking for the best elliptical machine, or for the best deal for the money you have available.

How tall is the tallest person that will be using your elliptical trainer? Knowing this will help you determine if a particular machine has a large enough stride size for your needs.

What kind of extras are you looking for.  Elliptical trainers with a built in heart rate monitor are very popular.  This ensures you will not be tempted to cheat or slack off during your workout. The heart rate monitor does not lie, targeting an appropriate heart rate for your age and condition will ensure you are working hard enough to get the results you are looking for.

Yet another consideration is the types of programs built into the machine, and whether or not you can customize them to your own preferences. This will help you to achieve workouts that fit your level and will help you to vary your workouts somewhat to keep your body guessing and progressing.

You should consider the warranty period, does the company stand behind its product? Look for at least a 3 year warranty and see if you can find information on the companies track record both in honoring its warranties and in the overall reliability of their products.

Keep all these things in mind and you will be well on your way to finding the best home elliptical machine for you. That is to say one that includes all of your must have features, is from a reliable company, and fits into your price range.
