Sportsroyals Twist Stepper/Mini Stepper,Steppers for Exercise at Home,Stair Stepper with Resistance Bands for Full Body Workout, 660lbs Weight Capacity

Just received Saturday and so far am impressed. This stepper is solidly built and is larger than it looks which to me is a bonus as it gives enough space between foot pedals to keep well balanced. The pedals themselves are large and comfortable barefooted. The pads provide good grip and I felt very secure on it using the resistance bands. Anyone hesitant that it doesnt have resistance adjustment let me just say the hydraulics provide adequate resistance for me and the burn 5 mins into it was no joke! Nice little workout to sides and hips as well as it provides a twisting motion with each step. The resistance bands provide a good upper body/arm workout too. Arrival 4 days sooner than expected date of delivery was a nice surprise! Cant wait to see what kind of results Im going to see and no more excuses for getting steps in on bad weather days. I did a lot of researching reviews and comparison shopping between this one and the Niceday and Sunny steppers and am very glad I went with this one. I am thoroughly pleased.

This little machine has finally motivated me off my ass and into exercise!Short version: Buy it and don't give up! You won't regret it. It's sturdy and does the job.Long version: I am a 54 year old fat, sedentary gamer with a congenital heart defect. My blood sugar and blood pressure were so high at my last doctor's visit, that I had to make some drastic changes. Along with a better diet (no salt or sugar, much less potatoes and bread), I knew I would have to start exercising. I bought this stair stepper mostly because it seemed sturdy, was rated for more than my weight, and was in my price range.The first week or so, it felt impossible. Like others have said, the tension is set high, and there is no way to adjust it. Don't panic! It gets better. At first, I could only do two minutes at a time, then five mins. Now, one month later, I just finished a 35 minute session! The tension loosened up a bit, and I got better, too.Here is what helped me. I parked it next to our TV and put together a Youtube exercise playlist. I chose songs with good rhythms and fun videos to keep me motivated (tip: Paula Abdul's "Straight up" is still excellent!). It is MUCH easier to step to dance music than to plod through while watching a movie. For better cardio, you'll want to take shorter steps. Again, this is where the music comes in handy to keep you on rhythm. Shorter steps have lighter tension, too.Since I've been able to do longer workouts, I've noticed my weight coming off easier. I've been losing about a pound every 3-4 days. The best part is that I was able to lower my blood pressure from 170/95 to 138/88. It's not perfect, but it's a drastic improvement, and I didn't have to go on meds. The machine gets about an hour of use each day, and so far it works beautifully and hasn't developed any loud noises.If you are looking for a reliable exercise machine that won't take up much space and doesn't cost a ton of money, this one is an excellent choice!

Well packed, with minimal assembly. I threw it together in less than 5 minutes. Hopped on and did five minutes of steps.It gets your heart going somewhat. Fit but detected 21 calories burned in the five minutes time. Great for portability. Sturdy, not noisy.Completely not adjustable however. I was going to be able to adjust the tension in the steps, but you can't.A more fair price would've been around $40.I'll update to let you know how it holds up.

I love this thing. Like many others, it would make an awful sound, clicking and squeaking, after a few minutes of use. I put some lubricant on the joints, which has worked like a charm. I park it in the living room, set a timer, and get mini workouts while watching TV. I work out, but I work from home, so I wanted to make up for having a sedentary life outside of those workouts. This does the trick. I have bad knees and plantar fasciitis, and this is easy on my legs while still burning my thighs!! (you can adjust the tension). If you are on the fence, get it! I'm going to buy one for my mom too!

I’ve been using the Sportsroyals Stepper for a few weeks now, and I’m extremely impressed! This compact machine delivers an intense cardio and strength workout without taking up much space. The adjustable stride height is a game-changer—I can increase the intensity for a more challenging session or lower it for a lighter warm-up.The built-in resistance bands are a huge bonus, allowing me to engage my arms and upper body while stepping. It’s like getting a full-body workout in one simple machine! The hydraulic system is smooth and quiet, making it perfect for home use—no annoying squeaks or jerky movements.I also appreciate the 330 lb weight capacity, which provides stability and durability. The textured pedals keep my feet secure, and the digital monitor tracks my steps, time, and calories burned, which helps me stay motivated.Assembly was quick and easy, and the stepper feels sturdy even during vigorous workouts. Whether I’m watching TV or squeezing in a quick session between meetings, this stepper keeps me active without needing a gym.Highly recommend for anyone looking for an effective, space-saving exercise machine!
