Welcome to Elliptical Review Guru. I created this site back in 2012 to give consumers clear, unbiased information when choosing an elliptical for their home. For over 14 years, our team has researched the fitness industry and tested hundreds of machines to help you make an informed buying decision.

If you have any questions, please contact me or look me up on any of my social media profiles.

David Bloom - Elliptical Review GuruI personally test as many elliptical trainers as possible to provide real-world insights.

We have first-hand testing experience with models from NordicTrack, ProForm, Bowflex, Sole, and Horizon—often provided directly by manufacturers for review. For other brands like Life Fitness, Matrix, Precor, and TRUE, we test units at local health clubs and fitness equipment showrooms, including Johnson Fitness & Wellness and Gym Source.

Whenever you see a “Test Drive” badge on a review, it means someone on our team has physically trained on that machine. We also aggregate direct feedback from readers and verified owners to cover long-term durability on newer models.

Here are some good starting points for you:

1. Explore our guide to the Best Ellipticals to compare top-rated option across every budget.

2. Read our breakdown on Where To Buy An Elliptical for details on dealer pricing and sales.

Those two sections should help you narrow down your choices to a few ellipticals. You can also browse through our different elliptical brand reviews to see which one appeals to you most. You’ll find most of the brands we cover on the right of this page. If you don’t see what you are looking for just use the search box.

Again, if you need any help narrowing your choices or have any questions about buying elliptical machines, please feel free to contact us at any time. We’re happy to help!
