After a long search and some testing other elliptical machine I chose the CX 4.2 to buy, luckily here at Amazon at a very affordable price compared to other manufacturers and I was not disappointed because of the positive reviews. Delivery arrived on time and the nice gentlemen of forwarding brought a good piece up to its planned parking space. Construction couple went smoothly and was completed after 1.5 hours. Place you have to have for this device in any case, since it still has an impressive size. After the first test runs, I can only report positive, is very quiet and you can hear the message perfectly normal volume for training. I'm sure we've bought on a long view and heavy use here a high quality device.
