ProForm ErgoStrider 3.0 Elliptical Review

The ErgoStrider 3.0 is a very low-budget elliptical. A majority of customers have indicated that they wouldn’t recommend this machine to a friend. Avoid buyer’s remorse and try the ProForm 330 or 4.0 X instead.

Elliptical Misses: What’s Not to Like?

Overall Rating for the ProForm ErgoStrider Elliptical

The ErgoStrider 3.0 has few redeeming qualities. On the positive side, customers get six well-designed workout programs for a very low price. On the negative side, they don’t get much training in before this plastic machine becomes a hassle. It has a light flywheel, it’s wobbly and squeaky, and it breaks down quickly. Skip this elliptical and check out the ProForm 4.0 or another budget elliptical trainer.
