Unfortunately, there are some bugs to be worked out on the 4810. Elliptical reviews are reporting that consumers have had need to contact ST Fitness for assistance since there were problems with the 4810 Total Body Trainer right out of the box. According to some unhappy owners, the manual contains incorrect instructions, the console is confusing, and some factory-assembled parts failed. These types of design and mechanical failures are a red flag.

Our Thoughts

For $899, the ST Fitness 4810 Total Body Trainer ranks only so-so in terms of quality and value. In addition, the adjustability and ergonomics are just average, and it is noisier than users would like. The warranty is fine for a machine under $1000 and you are covered with a 90-day return policy. We can’t say much as to the reliability yet since it is a new brand, but we expect Star Trac to back up what they sell even in the lower end mass market models. Nevertheless, we would pass on this new one and look at machines that have dominated the market for 10 years — ellipticals made by Spirit, Smooth, or Sole.
