The Schwinn 431 Elliptical Trainer is an upgrade of the highly popular 430 bestselling model which entered the home exercise equipment market back in 2006. It comes with the same compact features which made its predecessor quite a hit, but has added more programs, a larger flywheel and a bigger user weight capacity. It is about 20 lbs heavier than the previous model and offers more sturdiness with the same compact footprint.

Exercising has never become more convenient and enjoyable with its built-in 3 speed adjustable fan an iPod/MP3 dock, a water bottle holder and a towel hook.

I can only say that this Elliptical Trainer is the very best for its price range. In fact, it is better than many of the higher priced machines that are available. One of the deciding factors is that this model has the 25 lb. flywheel, which makes the operation very smooth and helps to stabilize the machine. It is very well constructed, very smooth, and very quiet. I put it together in an hour and a half. It was money well spent! I would definitely recommend this model for in-home use.
