Which cross-trainer?

[Spie]

I'm looking for a good solid cross-trainer machine. Something that isn't going to fall apart after a few months. Can anyone suggest a good make and model?

Thanks

Can't suggest a model but at the gym they have fitness-first ?

These are used continuously and never seem to break down.
Infact, I accidently marked one with a set of keys and that was nearly 2 years ago, it's still there, so they haven't replaced it

Just make sure it has a TV built into it for ultra coolness

Matrix do some quite good ones, with ultra cool built on TV's.

I know nothing about them, but did come across this.

look at "life fitness" range, they are the Rolls Royce of gym gear, expensive but they are designed to run 24/7 and come with big guarantees. All the big gym names use them (David Lloyd, Fitness First etc etc).

Not cheap, but if you want a good one.
I've ordered stuff from them before, pretty good.

PS, shouldn't this be in the Sports Arena?

Theres a place not far from your shop (you might even come past it every day) that sold professional gear to the Gym's.
I don't know if its still there but heres a pic -Fitness Shop

My Dad has a Life Fitness treadmill and even though it's about 15 years old now it is the dogs. It weighs more than the sun though

How much are you looking to spend Spie you can spend as little or as much as you want on a cross trainer personally i would go with a Commercial model from life fitness
