Glad it did, because I love this thing. If you have it set up in a place where it can permanently stay, you will naturally want to step on it for a few steps throughout the day to get accustomed to it. I recommend starting out this way because it will kick your butt. You will discover muscles in your legs that you didn't know existed.

9-27-23 I was a bit worried about how this stepper was going to withstand use, but I'm happy to report that after a week of daily use, so far so good! I weigh 280 and have no issues with the assembly making noise or shifting parts. One pedal goes down while the other goes up. For now I place my hand on a wall until it get my core stronger. It doesn't take up much floor space, and I don't see it damaging the floor. The parts that touch the floor have rubber.

It doesn't feel flimsy or unsteady. It doesn't rock when I put one foot on a pedal while climbing onto it.

I'll update this review if anything changes, but so far, absolutely worth the money!

I bought this because Tik Tok made me basically lol. But it has turned into an integral part of my daily routine these past few months! I wanted to wait until I've had it for a while to review it.

I use my stepper every day first thing in the morning for at least 20 minutes straight and I have had no issues Except two. And that is #1: about a month after use I noticed it started to click and grind while I was using it and the pedals weren't gliding as smoothly. I didn't think much of it at the time. When I removed the stepper from the place I was in on top of my living room rug, there were very fine metal shavings/dust ground into my carpet! While I wasn't thrilled with that, luckily some WD-40 has cured the problem and my stepper gets lubed up now every few weeks when I notice it isn't gliding smoothly any longer. When lubing up the shocks, though, black metal shavings mixed with WD-40 leak out everywhere so I make sure to use the stepper on top of cardboard or my yoga mat and wipe the machine and the surface I was on clean afterwards.

Another thing is that #2: the end caps have popped off of the machine a few times on me while I was using it. Nothing major and they pop right back on, but I've only had this happen when I use the stepper on a flat surface like my kitchen floor where the machine can easily slide around if I'm not careful. No issues with the end caps when using it on carpet or on top of my yoga mat. I could glue them into place I guess but haven't felt the need to.

Other than those two small issues I have no complaints. I like the resistance bands it came with a lot and they were SO HARD to use at first but I've built resistance up now and I love that you can remove them if you don't want to use them. I found a set of higher resistance bands that are compatible with this machine so if I feel like doing a harder workout I can choose harder resistance bands to use that day.

Compatibility was also a huge factor for me, as I have a small house with a toddler and needed this to store away somewhere when not in use. This machine does just that perfectly! It's light and easy enough to use anywhere that I can get on it any time of the day, like in the evening when my husband and I watch TV. It's quiet enough that we can both still enjoy the TV show without me disturbing him in the process. I love going for walks and jogging outside, but this is an awesome "home gym" addition to my exercise routine for rainy days or whenever I don't feel like going outside. My main motivation for purchasing this was the 105° summer days we had! No more getting up at 4AM to run or walk outside unless I want to because this little machine is always ready! You won't regret this buy if you're serious about keeping in shape or getting in shape. It's low impact enough to where it doesn't bother my bad knee when I'm having bad days either and I love that. If you're overweight and just looking to get started in your fitness journey in the comfort of your own home, look no further! Buy this!

This is good exercise equipment but for me, it started to hurt my knees. So I decided to use something else that doesn't put stress on my knees. I'll use the treadmill and walk slowly until I'm able to build up my strength.

This is a very good fan, simple and luxurious, also light and not too difficult to install, this fan is also very comfortable because it doesn't make any noise. and don't bother us
