Smooth Fitness CE2.1 Elliptical Trainer

Product Description
The original Smooth CE elliptical exerciser set the bar by delivering performance that was sturdy, stable and smooth. Like the original CE, the CE 2.1 has the same completely silent mechanisms and ultra-smooth ride that live up to the Smooth Fitness name. But now the CE 2.1 also offers commercial-level durability and advanced technology that results in a completely natural feel and impact-free workout.

Customer Reviews
Upgrade to CE3.2 over 2.1
Only had it a week but appears to be well-made and quiet. However I would upgrade to the next level for the controls and matrix screens. The LCD is mediocre at best and the computer is difficult to read for settings. The two units are mechanically identical, so performance is not an issue. 4 stars for the product, not for Smooth Fitness as a company.

Make sure you track all transactions with Smooth Fitness. Smooth Fitness attempted to send a used unit, but I caught the price difference and called/emailed them on it. Not a big deal, but...

Another order for a 6.25 treadmill was delivered and turned out to be a used machine that was partially packaged. The treadmill was upside down in the box with missing and broken Styrofoam pieces. Obviously, it was a customer return that was never tested or repackaged. The huge box was in good shape with no dents, no cuts, no holes. The delivery issues are the result of Smooth Fitness sending a used rather than a new unit for which I paid. This is the second time that Smooth Fitness has done a "bait and switch". Good equipment, but not a company with which I choose to do business.
