 OK, but you should know... June 25, 2008
I got the product and it worked as desired EXCEPT the resistance is very very weak (almost like pedaling air). It has an adjustment dial, but I found almost no difference from the weakest to the toughest setting. As a person who almost never exercised before, I had no trouble pedaling away for hours. The counter flips after 9999 and that can be done in one sitting without breaking a sweat.
Also, the "calories burned" is no where near accurate (reports way too many calories burned than you actually did). They note in the manual it can't be used reliably, but I figured it would at least be of some practical approximation for an average user.
Other than that, it does it is supposed to. Easy to move wherever you go, and provides a quick/easy way to get some minimum exercise in. I use it while watching T.V. but found it difficult to use at a desk (my knees would hit the desk).
 Love it! April 2, 2008

I am a very busy working mother and i love biking at home when i can find time to fit in a work out, but i have been using the Mini Stationary Bike at work and have really toned up my legs, once i got into the habit of using it, it is really working for me.

Easy to assemble small enough to store easily. Difficult to use if sitting straight up and working.
 poor quality February 18, 2008

The machine arrived with a six inch crack in the plastic casing along the right side just beneath the pedal.
Worse than that, the screw-type bolt holes on the bottom were not machined correctly at the factory in China. These bolts are necessary because they affix the support feet to the machine. The bolts that came with my machine were too large for the holes, which proved to be irrelevant because the angle that the holes in the machine were drilled and then tapped is not level, so you can never actually screw the bolts in straight. The bolts are actually screws with a Phillips head, so it's far too easy to strip the screws; however, maybe on properly-machined bolt holes the screws go in easier. As a final testament to the level of quality associated with this product, the instruction manual is rife with inconsistencies, typos, and classic Engrish.
Fortunately the seller credited my account promptly. Because the machine was in such shoddy condition, I never even got it together, so my review not based on an actual working machine. I wished I could've used it because people who actually have it together sure seem to love it.

The calorie counter seemed like a great feature, but all it does is increment by a fixed number of calories per rotation, no matter how you set the resistance. As if that weren't bogus enough, the number it increments by is something like 0.3, so pedaling only once per second, you would get an absurdly high figure of 600 calories in a half hour. The "computer" is worthless.
Next, let's talk about the build quality. Looks good in the photo, right? I can assure you the housing is made of the cheapest plastic. Ours arrived with a corner chipped out of it. Sure, it was poorly packed, but the box was in good condition, so it clearly had not been bashed around too much. Finally, it arrived without several bolts required for final assembly.
At least the vendor processed the return promptly and without fuss. Since I'm still out return postage, I'll call that my gym fee for the season and just do laps up and down the stairs at commercial breaks until the winter weather blows over.
