Question: NordicTrack CX 938 Elliptical - Any Opinions?

Question Description:

Answer#1: I love it.. The first time I got on one was during PT after acl surgery and had done no real exercise in about six months. The had one very similar to to the one your inquiring about. It's a great buy.

Answer#2: My opinion is to BUY it. Workout at home saves you time, and you can take a shower right after at your own place. Good idea to have one at home.The Nordic Track CX 938 Elliptical is an extremely popular elliptical trainer with buyers. Priced at $599 it is certainly affordable for many elliptical buyers - but is it worth it? Here's a review of the Nordic Track CX 938 Elliptical to help you decide if it's right for you. Main Features:SMR™ Silent Magnetic Resistance - Magnetic resistance uses magnetic pull to create the resistance in your workout. This makes for a very quiet workout. Choose from 10 intensity levels to target specific workout and conditioning goals. Oversized Pedals - helps you find a comfortable foot hold or change the length of your stride for an optimal workout.iFit Compatible - The Nordic Track 938 CX can run optional iFIT.com® workouts in addition to the workouts built-in to your console. This can help fight off exercise boredom and burn more calories over the long run.ClearView™ Backlit Console - This easy to read, backlit console keeps track of speed, time, distance, calories, carbs, pulse, resistance and revolutions per minuteTarget Pacer - This tool lets you know when you need to work a little harder or slow down – so you know you can optimize your exercise time and burn max calories.Nordic Track Warranty - All Nordic Track elliptical trainers are covered for one year on the frame, motor, parts and all labor charges.Workout Fans - Four fan settings let you choose between low, medium, high or AutoBreeze™, which automatically changes the airflow to match the speed of your elliptical.Pros: The Nordic Track CX 938 elliptical is one of the better 'economy' buys on the market, especially with the silent magnetic resistance and the one year warranty. If you are on a tight budget, the CX 938 is truly affordable. It also is fairly smooth and silent.Cons: This is a very basic elliptical. It does not offer incline capability (as does the upgraded Nordic Track 998) and the console is limited. While the 1 year warranty is ok, don't plan on using this machine for years.Bottom Line: At this price point, if you are extremely limited in funds, the Nordic Track CX 938 is definitely a good value. It is quiet and smooth in operation. However, if you can spend a bit more there are several other better options like the Nordic track 998 or even the Schwinn 418.
