Elliptical reviews are overwhelmingly favorable on every model Life Fitness builds, and this one ranks near the top on most Best Buy lists for its price range. The Life Fitness Club Series cross trainer offers an incredibly smooth glide, accurate HR monitoring, great programs, wonderful ergonomics, and Life Fitness machines have a reputation for being reliable (equipment techs report few if any breakdowns). The only downside to this machine is the lack of adjustability in the fixed 18" stride length — well, that and the big price tag.
Our Thoughts
The Life Fitness Club Series elliptical is the exact same price as the Life Fitness X8 with basic console, both sell for $3,999. They are great machines but likely more trainer than you really need. If you are absolutely driven to spend $4K on a Life Fitness elliptical, get the X8 instead of the Club Series since it has a better warranty, an 18" to 24" automatic adjusting stride length, and a choice between a basic or advanced console.
