Spirit Esprit EL-455 20-Inch Stride Elliptical
Our Rating: 
Spirit Esprit EL-455 Review - Being a consistent gym-goer, my gruelling daily evening ordeal at our local sweat shop was cut short after I was asked to put in extra hours at work. The next step was to find a hot stepper preferably under fifteen hundred $ with the capacity for heavy duty exercising. I liked the Spirit straight away since first glance. Coming back late from work, I was looking for a no-nonsense machine, which would run without complaints. My gym coach also highly recommended it.
The whole buying experience was pleasant with Amazon throwing in some discounts and freebies and delivery was smooth. Setting it up in my spare bedroom, I soon realised that my buy was a good one. My wife and elder son use it regularly and we have no complaints since the past four months. The Spirit is a very smooth elliptical with almost no jerks with a 20” stride quite close to my own.
Since it is my first, I was quite apprehensive about the racket the machine would make, and was pleasantly surprised with it’s super quiet whirring. Quite unlike the gym ellipticals. The in-built speakers are dismal but the LCD control panel is easy to operate and efficiently designed.
Here are some of the reviews customers have left:
"I do consider myself an 'amateur' when it comes to exercise. I was looking for an elliptical because frankly my only time to exercise is after the kids go to bed, and my treadmill was WAY too loud. I bought this machine after reading other reviews and honestly this has been a great purchase.I would highly recommend this machine."
"I have had the Spirit EL-455 Elliptical for about a week. So far, I am very happy with it. It works well, and seems to be good quality."
"Overall, I love it and a friend of mine ordered one right after see mine. I love the water bottle supplied with it. It is an awesome machine and I recommend it...100%"
"We bought this based on Amazon reviews and on day 3 it has exceeded our expectations. Saw the Sole E35 at Sears for $1300 and then learned on amazon that this has the same manufacturer. Ordered it on a Tuesday evening, and it arrived Saturday morning. The box and packaging are done well. The parts are heavy. We made it down narrow stairs with 2 people. The assembly was straightforward, and they included all the necessary tools if you don't have your own. It feels very solid, and it is much quieter than we expected."
The Spirit Esprit EL-455 20-Inch Stride Elliptical is a quality trainer and I highly recommend my buy. It’s value for money.
