Drive Medical 10270KDRSV-1 Exercise Peddler - Silver Vein Knocked Down Review

Those at Amazon... I appreciate your work and company.
I just received an exercise peddler, but it is certainly not the one I ordered. What was received is an exercise peddler Model # 10270KDRSV-1, made bY "drive MEDICAL DESIGN & MANUFACTUREING", delivered by MDK Ventures Internet A/C... DBA Medical Department Store.
It appears that the price on Amazon for the model received I 32.50... I paid 45.49 for a Pedlar... NOT drive MEDICAL DESIGN & MANUFACTUREING!!
What was received looks like a piece of junk. The unit is for my father to help him recover from a broken hip, so I did a lot of research and decided on the Pedlar... the one ordered.
As far as the unit itself, it looks junky. We have had experience with other peddlers for our other parents and quality is important. Previous peddlers will fall apart in the bushing area and the crank will start to wobble. Anti skid is very important too. I wouldn't try to use any of these as an exercise tool, but a good peddler is great for rehabiltaion from surgery or injury.
This is clearly a rip-off. I don't blame Amazon, but I do expect Amazon to take action and drop this vendor.

Cheers.
Follow on... this unit is still a piece of junk, but as within a hour of submitting a claim on Amazon to the vendor, I got a call. He applogized, we talked about the shipping company and how they receive the orders and grab anything that looks like the order. He also said that the Pedlar is a much better unit. I should be receiving the Pedlar in a few days. I was impressed with the quick response... but one has to wonder how many people will not realize they did not get exactly what they ordered.

Digital Mobility Aid Pedal Exerciser for Arms & Legs Review

Digital Mobility Aid Pedal Exerciser for Arms and Legs
Average Reviews:

The machine itself is built sturdy and works just fine, a few draw backs to this product.
one being the packaging it was shipped in, it had nothing to really protect the machine while shipping when i got mine the control knob was broken into pieces, It still had a large enough piece to grab to adjust it so it wasn't too bad, I was able to glue it back together.
It has a god awful metal against metal screech when using it on a higher level of resistance, it is easily fixed by opening it up and adding some oil to the belt and metal wheel, once it is oiled the sound isn't noticeable.
The rubber grips are pretty much useless on anything but a carpet, once you start peddling at a faster speed it just starts moving.
The frame is very light weight which does cause another issue when peddling since at times you can life up one side of it and start moving, adding a little weight to the end helps with this.
It is still better than some other ones out there and at a fair price, if you can set up your environment to use this product then it should work just fine.

Sunny Health & Fitness Motorized Mini Bike Review

Sunny Health and Fitness Motorized Mini Bike
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My Dad had a stroke about 8 months ago and lost movement on his right side. I hoped that this machine might help him in his recovery. At first I could not understand the use of a machine that actually does the pedaling for you. I thought the motor would provide resistance and was disappointed when I set it up. I couldn't have been more wrong. My Father needed the help the motor provides. He only had one good leg. As soon as I turned it on for him he smiled. He loves it.
The most important feature turned out to be the dial that controls the speed. This provides almost infinite (so it seems) speeds. The digital ones can't do that. When he first started he needed the slower speeds that only this dial could provide.
This machine has performed flawlessly, it has been used almost every day for 2 months with no problems. The timer is a great feature, the machine shuts off when it reaches 0.
Minor Issues
1) We removed the calorie counter as it gets in the way and kept falling off. It wasn't needed anyway.
2) The blue plastic feet are not secured to the legs and tend to spin when moving it around. Secure the blue feet and it would be a perfect machine.
My Dad's trainer checked it out before he started using it.

The Pedlar? Review

The Pedlar

This type of home exerciser was recommended by my physical therapist after I had arthroscopic surgery on both knees. I found the Pedlar is not only fine for my physical therapy knee exercises, but I also maintain my upper body and arm exercises by putting the Pedlar on the table and using my hands to rotate the pedals. I especially appreciate its size and convenience. I took it along on a driving trip vacation and used it in my hotel room. It took up very little space in the car (in fact it fit on top of my walker in the trunk) and fit into the closet in the hotel. Very convenient!
