Smooth Eliptical Trainer Review
"Best Buy Rating"

In the past Smooth sold private labeled eliptical trainers. For example, their Smooth CE is built by Kettler. Recently Smooth started building their elipticals at the same facility where they have their top rated treadmills manufactured. That includes the Smooth CE 2.1, 3.2 and 7.4.

The Smooth CE has been a popular seller, and was a solid and reliable machine. It had a very good service record. One of the most appealing features was the 40 lb. flywheel and the eddy brake system. These features contributed to very smooth and fluid motion.

Smooth CE 2.1 - $1,299 (Includes shipping)
Smooth CE 3.2 - $1,499 (Includes shipping)

The new models utilize the best qualities of the CE elliptical and add additional features that make for an even better value. For example, their new models include pivotal foot pedals that reduce the strain on your ankles. They align with the eliptical motion of the machine. Each new model has a far superior console and display over the older CE. Furthermore, the programs are a vast improvement, and provide a challenging workout.

Smooth offers the advantage of selling direct and only on the Internet. They are the only fitness equipment company that sells solely online. This provides you with two advantages. In general you are getting a better value. You also are dealing with a company that specializes in online sales, fulfillment and service.

Regarding the discount value, obviously there is a savings when a company does not incur retail costs and the overhead from commissioned sales staff. But don't get caught on the exaggerated mark downs. Because you are buying a direct you are probably saving about 5%-10%, not the 30%+ percentage they suggest. Also, don't forget the savings in sales tax if you do not live in PA.

As mentioned, Smooth only sells online. They were the first significant fitness equipment company to sell on the Internet. They have process down to a science. And their customer service is one of the best when it comes to servicing treadmills and eliptical trainers.

Fitness Source Smooth Eliptical Review

In the $1,000 - $2,000 price range we find the Smooth Elipticals to be an excellent value. We particularly like the Smooth CE 3.2 if it is selling at $1,499 (Includes shipping). Smooth is constantly changing their sales prices to motivate buyers, so you will find weekly fluctuations.

You'll appreciate their smooth elliptical motion, solid feel and best of all their prices.
