Kettler Crosstrainer Unix M electronically (equipment)

Customer Review

The Kettler Crosstrainer Unix M is my first elliptical machine. Since I been good even with exercise bikes experiences with the company
made did, and I liked the business on the Unix M also field testing, the choice has fallen on this device.

For those who flirt with the purchase of Unix M schonmal the wichtigeste detail to the Kettler unfortunately on your
Website only dare information makes: The minimum height of the ceiling. As with all cross trainers, man is also on the Unix M
increases. I myself am 1,83cm tall and have the coach in the attic are with 2,28m ceiling height. Above me are on the move
still good 10cm square. I would expect so at least (!) Height + 35cm = required ceiling height.

Delivery / Packaging
--------------------------------
The packaging of the Kettler Unix M Factory is to say the least: lousy. The device weighs about 50kg, the thin cardboard with no padding
is the weight not grown, was torn in many places, a leg rod sticking out. Here Kettler saves in the wrong place!
For the shoddy packaging, there is a star deduction! For those with narrow doors: The cardboard is good 65cm wide.

Assembly
--------------------
To assemble you need: 13er, 16er, 17er wrench, a screwdriver, a hammer
and ideally, a second man / woman.

The manual is well illustrated and easy to follow. Even for a plan vegleichen the proper nuts and bolts
is in. The assembly is quite simple. But you should be in pairs, because at the same time hold the control panel
and screws is anatomically caused barely mögich. Sticking points are, unfortunately, extremely stiff handles
only by brute force (hammer) let in receive into the handlebars (or to carve something from plastic from).
This is not an isolated case this defect, even proves a Youtube video of another customer.
The second hurdle is, and that's definitely the bad packaging owed: Connecting the base parts with the
Handlebars. The guides of the foot parts were easily bent by the unprotected transport, so that the
Arm did not fit. Only by hammering something fit into each other the whole. Is the screw first,
then grinds nothing more. The problem has been brought only against the side where the foot through the cardboard
had encountered.

Workmanship:
----------------------------
The build quality is very solid. Nothing squeaks, nothing wobbles, both metal and plastic parts make a
high-quality impression. The only exceptions are the top caps of the handles that sit very loose and easily fall off. Here
helps superglue. The handles do not reek of plasticizers. Very good!

Training Computer:
-------------------------
The Unix M computer is quite spartan: 2 people profiles can create yourself. The Tretwidertand is set via a rotary knob,
the level is, however, electric. appears on the display. The cadence is displayed on a "tachometer" with bar graph to the usual
km, kjoule, pulse etc .. Of course you can define your own training requirements. An automatic. Interval training and other refinements not, the device offers. Something weird I find that you have to decide whether you want to display in miles or Km & kcal and Joule. Km & Kcal is not possible. Why are Europeans not in kcal expect Kettler?

Pulse:
-------------------
The remark in the manual that you have to buy an expensive Polar chest strap is no more than hot air. My 20 EUR Beurer pulse belt works just as well with the device right away. Presumably function other uncoded belts from other manufacturers.
Alternatively you can use the ear clip attached or the handgrips.

Training / movement:
---------------------------
The movement on the Unix M I found very pleasant. The device is quite stable. Wobbles slightly and the movement
feels around. Even with more than 1.80 m not upset anyone with my knees.

Conclusion:
--------
The Unix M is an elliptical machine with a purist board computer, but a solid quality and good movements.
Borderline is only the packaging by Kettler, so many devices scratched or slightly bent are likely to arrive at the customer.
The foot rods have no transportation safety and to impacts the heavy equipment is hardly protected in thin cardboard.
So bottom line, a top device for which you should check after delivery but twice if everything is ok.
