Just what the doctor ordered (5 Stars)

recently purchased a PhysioStep RXT-1000 for my mother. The product was recommended to us by her physical therapist. She is recovering from a slight stroke and this product not only fit her rehabilitation and exercise needs but it also fit our budget. We also looked at the NuStep product but it was considerably more expensive and did not have the elliptical motion we were looking for.
The PhysioStep arrived in perfect condition and we had it up and running for her in less than 45 minutes. One of the nice things about the PhysioStep is that it took up minimal space, approximately 4' by 3'. Also it is self powered so being by a power outlet was not a concern. We had an initial question regarding how to use all of the exercise programs but the companies customer service department was able to help us immediately, they were really helpful.
Overall, we are really satisfied with the product and my mother enjoys using it daily.
We would definitely recommend this to someone who needs a product that is enjoyable and easy to use.

I had been using the NuStep at my rehab facility and liked it . My thought was to purchase one for my home, after doing some research on the internet I found the PhysioStep. The price was right and it does everything I need. So far I am very happy with my decision and would suggest the PhysioStep to my friend
Better Than The Best (5 Stars)

When I was in Cardio Rehab I exercised on a Schwinn Airdyne and a NuStep. Very quickly, I fell in love with the NuStep but could not afford to buy one. I opted for the Schwinn, which my hubby bought me, but found my legs would ache badly and had to limit exercise to 15 minutes. In exasperation, I surfed on the internet and came upon your HCI PhysioStep. It is a bit larger piece of equipment, but fits nicely in our family room where I can also watch TV. The features have a bottle holder, nice padded arm handles, and the pedals are like a bicycle where your legs stretch out rather than round like a regular bike. Seat is very comfortable and of course, adjustable. We liked all the features, and the price could not compare to any others I checked.

I have limited mobility in my legs and bought the PhysioStep to keep as much muscle tone as I can. I am 66 years old and find the machine very easy to use. I ride at least 2 1/2 miles daily and find it's getting easier and easier to do that. I am very glad to have this machine.

My Stepmom was looking for an elliptical stepper so we ordered this for her. She said she really likes using it and can easily get on and off by herself. They live pretty far from physical therapy locations, so this makes it very nice to have in your home. Very easy to use and set up.
