Cubii Pro - Seated Under-Desk Elliptical - Get Fit While You Sit - Bluetooth Enabled, Sync with Fitbit and Apple HealthKit - Whisper-Quiet - Adjustable Resistance - Easy to Assemble
This seems to be a very well built machine and is almost completely silent when in use. I wish it was easier to adjust the position of the device and the chair more easily when the wheel locks are in place. It takes a while for me to get the angle on the device, the angle on the chair, and the distance of the chair the way I want it. I sit turned to the left monitor (I have two), so everything needs to be on an angle so my legs are still straight when I use the Cubii. I realize if I switched to a chair without roller wheels it would be easier, but I'm not giving up my super supportive chair. With how heavy it is anyway, I'm surprised they didn't just put a charger in there so you could pedal and charge the device as an alternative to having it plugged in all of the time.
Pros:
-Super easy to put together.
-Very quiet, almost silent.
-the App works fine for me but I wish it included a %battery and not just a visual bar (I like numbers) and an indicator that it is charging.
-addicting to use, maybe too much without working up to it because I think it uses different muscles than my typical walking or workout videos (I am feeling like I am getting shin splints just from 0.5 miles and today is the first day using it) from using it on and off while surfing the internet for an hour.
Cons:
-Very heavy, especially when you consider you will be moving it around underneath a desk, which makes it difficult to use proper body mechanics. However, the heaviness does help keep it in place, so not a total con.
-I had hoped to move this to other rooms when doing different activities, but I am afraid it's staying right where it is.
-The port where the micro USB goes in does not seem to be that well made, compared to the rest of the Cubii. it is somewhat difficult to plug in the micro USB and makes me never want to unplug it again either ... I'll unplug the USB adapter from the power when needed rather than crawl under my desk with a flashlight to unplug and plug it in.
