J Fit Ellipticals Review

The J Fit brand was launched in 2002 in Vancouver, Washington. The small business offers more than 300 types of inexpensive fitness equipment for home use. J Fit elliptical trainers are small, pedal-only versions that can fit under a desk. They have MSRPs under $200 and sell for less than $110 online. Five percent of proceeds from sales of the Pink Mini Elliptical are donated to cancer research.

Brand Features of J Fit Ellipticals

Some characteristics of J Fit elliptical machines include:

• Compact size – These lightweight elliptical trainers are a handy size for stashing at the office. For instance, the J Fit Mini measures 20.5″ H x 12.5″ W x 13″ D and weighs just 31 pounds.
• Exercise feedback – The electronic monitor tracks strides, exercise time, and an estimate of calories burned.
• Quality parts – This machine’s simple parts are made of sturdy steel. The pedals are textured for traction.
• Bonus – Weighted gloves are included to help provide a full-body workout. However, these are very lightweight.
• Low price – These aren’t comparable to full-sized elliptical trainers, but they’re much more affordable.
• No warranties – Parts and labor warranties are not available for J Fit elliptical trainers.

Overall Rating for J Fit Ellipticals

J Fit ellipticals are very simple machines that can provide quick cardiovascular workouts during office breaks. They’re fun and useful for what they are, but they aren’t comparable to full-sized elliptical trainers with movable arm bars, preset workouts, and built-in entertainment. Also, since J Fit doesn’t offer warranties, customers are taking a small gamble when they purchase these machines.

A similar product with a handlebar is offered by Sunny Health and Fitness.
