The Word on the Street

The Bladez Motion X450 elliptical trainer has an 18” stride length, 16 levels of magnetic resistance, and a heavy-weighted flywheel for smooth performance. It also has some basic comfort features such as ergonomic padded moving handlebars, oversized foot boards, a water bottle holder, and transport wheels for easy movement and storage.

Bladez is part of a large OEM conglomerate that has been making machines for other brand names for a dozen years. Bladez makes good fitness products, including ellipticals, exercise bikes and treadmills, and reviews are generally favorable toward them, even more so now that BH Fitness of Spain has taken over the brand and has worked on improving quality control.

Our Thoughts

The Bladez Motion X450 elliptical trainer has some sophisticated features but is it worth shelling out almost $850 on a brand that is not well known? If you are going to spend this much money, treat yourself to a proven winner that has delivered consistent performance. Check out a number of models made by Horizon, Livestrong, Nordictrack, Stamina, and Yowza that offer adjustable stride lengths, heavier frames and flywheels, entertainment ports, fans, inclines, and much more. If you settle for a Bladez, those are just a few of the things you won’t be getting.
