Right off--this appears to be an excellent unit. The materials are well manufactured, of durable thickness, and the electrical connectors are well made and not likely to have wires pull out. It arrived UPS (3 days, despite paying for overnight) with various punctures in the box. Nothing was damaged, but the styrofoam inside was broken and in total chaos--and parts had clearly shifted and some screws had come loose. (Keep the box until everything is together--parts may be in the flaps at the box's bottom.) Assembly took about 2 hrs and was quite easy. The instructions are well laid-out. Most of the screws are already in the proper holes (unless they have fallen to the bottom of the shipping box) and one need only unscrew them, position the proper part, and replace the screws. Tools are provided. The only real issues are (1) The seat support attaches to the frame with some hex bolts whose heads stick up above the plate. Hence the seat rests on the bolt heads rather than on the plate. If you can find some fine-thread 8M-35 flat screws, probably the problem would be solved--if not, no big deal. (2) The foot straps on the pedals are extremely tight fitting! Using all my strength (I'm over 60yrs) I was just barely able to stretch the straps over the pegs on the pedals. Also, be aware that some of the threads are left-handed. As for the unit itself, the seat back is mesh and comfortable. The seat is not too comfortable, but passable. The back is not adjustable vertically, but fits me. (The picture on Amazon may not be of the unit that was shipped to me.) As for noise level--there essentially is none. Quiet! If you want to move the bike, good luck! The manual says to stand in front of the bike and rock it onto its wheels. That movement provides more back exercise than most of us probably need--and it occurs again when lowering the bike! I will probably rig a strap (from a suitcase) around the back support to lift it with my legs and shoulders rather than awkwardly with my back. The computer buttons feel chintzy. But they are not used that often and probably will suffice. A nice feature is the pulse-buttons on both hand grips. Over all, would I buy it again? Definitely "Yes." I've tried to highly the problems so that your expectations will be reasonable. I like the overall quality and functionality. It's noticeably superior to what we've generally come to expect in this "modern" era of manufacturing.
