18" - 21" adjustable stride length |
About 50% of elliptical machines available in the market today only have one or fixed stride lengths. The Agile DMT X2 belongs to the other half that offers adjustable stride lengths. This feature is useful for concentrating your focus on your legs' different muscle groups or simply to accommodate multiple users of different stature in your homes. |

Fans, wireless chest strap, MP3 player support |
The doesn't fall short in giving you bells and whistles expected from upper residential elliptical machines. It comes with a built-in cooling fan and sound system to support you MP3 players plus it includes wireless heart rate monitor for a more accurate pulse reading. |

|
No incline feature |
We noticed the Agile DMT X2 lacks an incline feature. This would have given you a more challenging workout to give variation to the 15 built-in programs that come with this machine. Inclines are common even in many sub-$1000 ellipticals so lacking this feature is inexcusable especially considering its $1799 price tag. |
|
No water bottle holder |
No water bottle holder - We're very disappointed to see this elliptical not having a water bottle holder since it's considered a necessity. This model is among the very few ellipticals that doesn't provide this essential component. Although elliptical machines without any water bottle holder will still work fine, we would prefer a machine that will make it easier for you to drink water especially during intense workouts. |
|
Standard handlebar grips only |
Although standard handlebar grips will do, we're expecting enhancements from an elliptical worth $1800. The Agile DMT X2 could have provided cushioned or molded handgrips since these are commonly found in less expensive models. |
|
No reverse stride |
Another feature we noticed missing from this machine is the reverse stride feature. Having this capability would have given you the chance to work on your glutes and the back muscles of your legs making it more toned. |
