Good product for the price,
I recently bought this bike to replace a previous Schwinn recumbent bike (that broke of no fault of the manufacturer, mine entirely) I was very pleased with my previous Schwinn and wanted another one. It is comfortable and very quiet, the display can be hard to read in a bright or dark room as it is not back lit but seeing as how I just hit quick start, click up till I hit a good resistance level and then watch tv it hasn’t bothered me to much. However, those of you who want to keep track of your heart rate, time, resistance level etc I would recommend the Schwinn 240 as it has a very nice bright back lit display. The only two things I have noticed so far is the absolutely USELESS fan that it comes with. It is far to small and to far away to do anything. I turned it on and put my hands 2 inches away from the fan and could hardly feel it so to believe that it will cool your face as your pedal is a complete dream. A good Idea but poorly designed, a larger fan with a bigger motor would work but then you would be getting into noise and maybe they wanted to keep it quiet. Either way, don’t consider this a factor if you are looking between various models. The other think I have noticed is the connection between the two main body pieces, even though I have tightened all 5 screws home when I pedal on a high resistance level where I am pushing myself I do notice it tends to flex at the connection, not nearly enough to interfere with my workout but just something I noticed. Overall I am pleased with what I go for the money. I have had a good experience with Schwinn Recumbent bikes and look forward to having this one for a while to come.

|Good and affortable machine,
Machine is runing very quiet.
Easy to asssemble.
Console design is total failure:
1. Fan does not do enything but noise.
2. Speakers have very poor sound.
3. LCD Display has no back light. Information on display is hardly visible.
I would not recommend this machine to my friends.

|2012 Schwinn 220,
Pros:
1. Very smooth
2. Easy to assemble
3. Sturdy
4. Impressively quiet
Cons:
1. Top media support on console way too high if you’re short.
2. Fan is a joke. It spins, has two speeds, but blows no air. Buy your own fan.
Summary: Very satisfied with the bike. We’ll see how reliable it is….
