Product Summary
Ellipticals are not often known for being space-saving, yet that’s exactly what you get with the Diamondback Fitness 1280ef Adjustable Stride Elliptical Trainer. This elliptical is just 3 feet wide and 50 inches long, though you’ll need at least 11 inches in head space to comfortably ride on this cardio machine, which might be difficult for taller people. On the other end of the height spectrum, Diamondback states the minimum height is 5 feet, 2 inches.
One of its biggest attractions is the ability to connect to any fitness app, with the exception of iFIT, and the 10-inch touchscreen has crystal-clear graphics.
