ProForm Smart Strider 735 Elliptical

The SpaceSaver 735 is the mid-level trainer in the Pro-Form SpaceSpaver compact rear drive series, offered for just $799. Unlike the entry-level model, the 735 offers two adjustable features: the oversized pedals and the incline. The oversized foot pedals are adjustable and also include comfortable traction control, perfect for the feel and safety of the user. The incline is power adjustable and can be changed from 0 to 10 degrees, with just one touch from the console, and there are 20 digital resistance levels as well. However, the distance of the stride is not specified. When it comes to the console, this trainer comes with a 5 inch back-lit LCD display screen that is equipped with 22 workout apps (11 calorie and 11 performance), as well as an iPod compatible music port and two speakers. This trainer is also equipped with iFit compatibility, which allows users to access hundreds of workouts, in addition to routes from Google Maps, but the module nor the subscription are included. The console tracks a number of stats and is formatted in RaceTrack (TM) display for easy tracking. Like other Pro-Form trainers, the 735 is designed with a durable, commercial-grade steel frame and Silent Magnetic Resistance (SMR) technology. The compatibility with IFIT®, not available on the entry level 535 model, helps users keep track of their training as well as monitor progress so it makes a simple trainer appear a little more advanced in terms of technology. You need a separate module to use this feature as well as a smart phone or tablet to view the Google map routes you can choose. The oversized pedals are also very useful for this model to enable the user to vary their foot position to either alter the training or simply make it a more comfortable workout. However the small display keeps this model in the low end of trainers as some other models for just a bit more come with full color touchscreens which give a better experience. The 735 is very similar to the top end 935 model, except that one has a web-enabled touch screen that the 535 and 735 do no have. The 935 is also larger with a higher weight capacity and more workout apps. The Smart Striders are considered entry level machines, so they are perfectly fine for basic usage and getting into shape. However, if you serious about working out you might want to consider the PRO series.
