Has any ordinary person tried this equipment. If so, how did you find it and how much?:)

I have tried it and for my personal perspective it sucks. It's like a very cheep version of the stare master. Don't buy it. I think it costs 20 to 30 dollars. Your better off saving your money. But hey that's my opinion.

I've only had mine for about 2 weeks, I think it is sturdy. It is made of hard plastic. I got mine from HSN.com. It had a lot of extras that you would not normally get. The total with shipping was about 118.00, but I got it on easy pay. First payment was about 52.00 and then I have two more of 33.00. As I said in the question I posted I can only use it for about 3 minutes then my legs get tired and I have to stop. I will keep it and continue to get stronger until I can do the 30 minute dvds. If you can do it I think it's a good purchase.
If you don't like it, you can always return it. Hope this helped.
