The Smooth CE 2.7 Elliptical Trainer – an Entry-Level Dynamic Motion TrainerThe Smooth CE 2.7 elliptical trainer is an affordable model in the company’s line-up of Dynamic Motion Trainers. This machine is specifically designed for comfort with self-pivoting pedals and magnetic braking for a frictionless ride. But it’s the Dynamic Motion Technology that is the key feature of the Smooth CE 2.7 adjustable motion trainer; it recruits more muscles into the workout and allows users to get great results in half the time.What You Get(This model has been discontinued) The Smooth CE 2.7 elliptical trainer offers extensive programming -- 9 preset programs cover over 50 different courses including Manual, Target Calories, Fat Burning, Random, Interval Intensity, Heart Rate Control and more. The blue backlit display shows you your progress in speed, RPMs, time, distance, resistance level, watts, pulse, and calories burned. The full list of features of the Smooth CE 2.7 includes:
The Word on the Street
Experts are keen to see how the Agile Adjustable Motion levels will hold up over continued use on the Smooth CE 2.7 elliptical. Unfortunately, it’s a manual changeover so you will have to dismount in order to switch levels but that’s a small issue. Pros: sturdy frame, quiet ride, good value, articulating pedals, adjustable motion levels, big stride length, many programming functions, 2-year labor warranty, and optional in-home installation. Cons: somewhat of a boring (and small) console and the elliptical trainer’s big footprint at 72"L could overwhelm a small workout space.
Compare Smooth Elliptical Trainers Here Consumers haven’t had the opportunity to write many reviews of the Smooth CE 2.7 elliptical since it’s a new model for 2009. Still, as with all Smooth’s elliptical trainers, users rave about the solid feel thanks to an extra wide footprint, heavy-duty flywheel, and machine’s weight (at 207 lbs it is not a light model). They also love the fluid ergonomic glide, the 16 levels of intensity, and the idea that they can buy an entry-level model of the Agile DMTs without spending a lot of money. Our ThoughtsAt $1,499, the Smooth CE 2.7 elliptical trainer is a very stable machine that offers a lot of bang for the buck. With proper motivation, and by following the pre-set programs on this machine, you’ll find that by exercising just three days a week, you’ll be seeing a fitter and stronger body in a matter of weeks not months. We love both the CE 2.7 adjustable motion trainer and the CE 3.7 ($1,699), which has the same console layout but comes with an iPod docking port fitted at the top and speakers on each side.
