By bsrisles
There are many reviews out there for elliptical machines. Some reviews are even solicited by the companies that sell them. Let me ease your mind and tell you this review is mine alone...PROS...VERY VERY smooth. Even as I was assembling it with my friend, we both could not help but comment on how smooth the fly wheel and arms operated.The foot pedals are very comfortable. They do pivot slightly for mor comfort.The display is very solid. There are enough programs to keep you going. I like that you can enter your weight,height and age.I really am glad I got this Cardio Core machine as it will keep things fun and interesting. Regular ellipticals are fine, but this has more of an all body workout.The small footprint is a bonus as I live in an apartment. I am a small guy at 5'5'' so it works well for me.If you have an iPod your gonna love that it has a dock for it built in.One of the best warranty and service contracts in the industry. Lifetime Frame and Braking System, 3-Year Parts and 1-Year In Home Labor.Very friendly and accomodating customer service up to this point.Delivery was fast. I ordered it on Friday before Labor Day and was delivered yesterday. Box is heavy and large so get some help if you don't pay for the "white glove" treatment.CONS...It does only have an 18" stride. Understand that I would have prefered it be at least 20" but good enough for me. Time will tell but so far it's manageable. I could stand to lose more weight before I make a final assessment on the stride path. If your taller than me you could feel uncomfortable as your walking and running gait will be unnatural and choppy (circular VS elliptical).The cheap plastic as mentioned by a previous reviewer was only really noticeable at the back end of the machine whre the seams were slightly off. I am not concerned but it could bother some people. the plastic is really not "cheap".This is a 121 LB machine so it can rock ever so slightly when pushed VERY hard in a workout. I am overweight now but as time marches on and I lose a little more weight, I suppose that concern will take care of itself.There is no fan. I believe for the price a built in fan would be nice. It's not a deal breaker as I didn't buy an elliptical for a fan.Okay that's my review. I hope it was helpful as there are virtually no customer reviews on this machine.

By Ablezoner
Love the friendly helpful sales and support people. This is a great company.The Bonita looks very promising. In using it I loved the front rotational motion. Much better exercise for the upper body than the traditional elliptical arms.This is a beautiful machine. Very small footprint and looks nice in the house.Unfortunately, machine is not well built and our particular purchase creaked, squeeked and groaned. I could put up with the noise, but my wife could not as she wanted to be able to use it and relax -- or watch TV while using.It was a bit awkard feeling as pedals are very much up near the front and are not adjustable.Would not recommend. Would recommend company. Read reviews of their products here and at treadmilldoctor.com and decide if their better (and more expensive) products are right for you. Consider other companies also. treadmilldoctor.com is a good resource to research their competitors.The good news is company took back machine and was very nice in doing this.

By Dulenoted
I work out quite a bit and decided to get a new machine after my PRECOR broke down (had it for 6 years, a lot of miles). I liked the concept of the Yowza Bonita and was sold on the price along with the 'core technology'. This machine is poorly built, shakes and rattles with with very little force, the IPOD connector does not work (probably due to the violent shaking) and the stride is awkward, putting a lot of pressure on the knees and back. Customer service is a mailbox that is apparently unmanned and now I am stuck with a 130lbs piece of plastic that will never get used again.Don't walk away from this company, RUN!
