My initial thoughts about the Sole E35 Elliptical trainer was that I would require help in setting it up. This thought was as a result of going through numerous consumer reviews. I was however surprised, when my 15 year old son was able to assemble it in less than a few hours, without needing any help. All he had to do was follow the step by step instructions provided in the trainer’s packaging.
I am easily bored by reading books, so when my son asked if he could help set up the elliptical, I was more than happy to oblige. He has experience in setting up robots and in programming, so maybe that is why it took him about 2 hours to complete it! However, it might take someone like me (novice) a bit longer to assemble it.
I was pleased to discover that the was very quiet when being used. The ‘quiet’ usually helps me in maintaining a peaceful thought process while I exercise.

Being a beginner I was worried about the potentially high impact quality of the trainer. I was however, very glad when I was able to exercise at a low impact level with . My exercise routines used to involve a lot of running which I had to quit after my joints could no longer take the discomfort. On this elliptical I can run again without worrying about my joints.
