Body Champ Deluxe Cardio Elliptical

Pros

Treadmills411 Editor Comments

Comes with 24 programs in touch screen display

It's not very common to find an entry-level elliptical offering 24 programs. Add the touch-screen display and you have an attractive  and easy-to-use console. We're used to seeing just 5-8 programs in ellipticals selling for $700 and below so this elliptical's  24 programs, with some of them even customizable,  and nice console are among its best selling points.

Has 16 resistance levels

When you consider its $599 price tag, the 16 resistance levels give this elliptical an advantage over the others in the $600 and below price range.

2-in-1 design

Just like the other Body Champ ellipticals, this model also functions as a stationary bike and it's just like you bought 2 exercise machines for the price of one.

Compact elliptical machine

Measuring just 45.5 inches in length and 15.88 in width, this elliptical machine's compact design won't take up too much space in your room.

Cons

Poor warranty

With the Deluxe Cardio being the most expensive Body Champ elliptical priced a t $599, it's disappointing to know that it still comes with a poor warranty of 1 year on frame and 90days on parts. It doesn't even have a labor warranty so this would mean potential expenses for you should this machine breaks down within or after 3 months.

Questionable quality

Even though a 300lbs maximum user weight capacity is impressive, we can't help but wonder if this 108-lb elliptical can hold up such weights. User reviews of Body Champ ellipticals mention that the machine wobbles and produce noise when in use. Add the poor warranty that comes with this elliptical and we can't blame you if you question its durability and quality.

Basic pedals

When it comes to foot pedal design, most ellipticals give you some sort of cushioning or ergonomical design. Only a few models don't offer this feature and the Body Champ Deluxe Cardio is among them.
