In one of my fitness magazines there is a coupon code (NBFIT)for $50 off the New Balance 5.5 Elliptical Trainer. This new model is now their cheapest at $599.99 before coupon with free shipping good at the newbalancefitness.com site. (Their other models range from $699 up to $1199.) The code is only good on the 5.5 elliptical model. Prices elsewhere I have found are $599 without any discount so this code can save you some money. I don't know much about these as I use a stationary bike at home and have never tried the elliptical trainers but if you are looking for a name brand that isn't going to take up your whole living room then maybe this would be of interest. Here's some info on the 5.5 from the Newbalance site:
