Steppers for Exercise at Home, Mini Stepper with 300LBS Capacity

Definitely a better workout than I expected honestly. I’m postpartum from having two kids back to back, so I wanted something I could do at home that was actually effective. The first couple times using it I realized how out of shape I am and I was only able to do about 15 minutes before I had to stop and was drenched in sweat. But that’s how I know it’s actually doing something! I saw these machines on tik tok and was a little skeptical but I figured for the price, it couldn’t hurt to try. And I’m so glad I did! I’m now up to about 35-40 minutes on it and it’s definitely a good workout. I don’t use the resistance bands much since I find it hurts my elbows since they are pretty tight bands, and I’m afraid of injury. The slight side to side motion is comfortable, doesn’t hurt your knees or hips. Easy to use and seems like good quality so far. I’ve been using is 3-4 times a week for about a month now and no issues with quality. Counters seem accurate but I don’t pay much attention to them to be honest. I haven’t noticed any weight loss yet, but I have noticed improved endurance and overall feeling a little stronger. So far pleased with the purchase.

I’ve been using the Niceday stepper for a few months now and I’m honestly impressed. It’s compact, sturdy, and easy to set up right out of the box. I like that it doesn’t take up much space, so I can slide it under my bed or tuck it in a corner when I’m done. The resistance feels smooth and challenging enough to actually get a good sweat going, especially when I use the resistance bands for arms at the same time. Even short sessions leave my legs feeling worked, which is perfect for days when I don’t have time for a full workout. It’s also pretty quiet, so I can use it while watching TV without bothering anyone. Overall, it feels well-built and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. If you’re looking for an easy way to stay active at home without bulky equipment, this stepper is definitely worth it.

A few years ago I started working from home, and while that's awesome, it also caused me to spend a ridiculous amount of time sitting at my desk, as there's no reason to get up to go to the copier, or consult with a co-worker, etc. I can't always go for a 15 or 20 minute walk several times a day, so I wanted something I could do indoors, and something I could do frequently throughout the day during quick work breaks, to counteract all that sitting. Anything I could think of to do on my own (with no equipment) didn't seem like enough. But I have a tiny apartment and really didn't have room for much in the way of equipment. I knew if it was something that could be folded up to fit in a closet or under the bed, well, it'd probably stay there. I needed something that could sit right in the middle of the living room in plain sight, without being 'in my way.' This was it, and it's perfect. I get up from my desk every hour to hour and a half or so and do 5 minutes on this stepper. Five minutes isn't a lot to some people, but I'm out of shape so it's a pretty good workout for me (the way I have the tension set), and it gives me moving breaks all day long to break up all that sitting. Of course it could be used for longer sessions, but the point for my purpose wasn't to do a 30 minute cardio workout just on this, but instead to have some way to easily take 5 to 7 breaks during the day and really get my muscles moving and my heart pumping for a few minutes, to counteract all that sitting. This definitely does that. The stepper came almost completely assembled, you just have to tighten a pulley cable with a knob, and the instructions explain it easily. The resistance bands with handles are adjustable for your height and/or how much resistance you want them to have. They are also optional, you can do the stepper with or without them. I actually usually don't use them. I have some discomfort in my right knee, and was worried this would be a problem with the type of movement on this machine. Using the stepper while standing completely upright does cause some pain in my knee (tho I may have the tension a little high, too). Sometimes I wear a knee brace, which does help - but I also discovered another trick I like. I put the stepper in front of a sturdy table and lean forward with my hands on the table, sort of the same position you'd be in if you were riding a bike. When I use it that way I have no knee discomfort, and as a bonus, I can do more steps in the same amount of time, because it's a little bit easier. So overall, I love it, it works great, I've had no problems with it at all. It's very sturdy and feels well built, but it's not too heavy to move around if you need to reposition it. I'd recommend it for anyone, but especially if space is a concern, and even if you're out of shape and can't do much exercise at one time (like a full 30 minute hard core cardio workout) - because with this, you can do just what you can, all throughout the day, and build up.

This Niceday Twist Mini Stepper was delivered on 12/7/2024 and it was ready to go right out of the box. First, I inspected it, of course, and made sure it was intact and adjusted to my preference. Then I attached the optional resistance bands. For the first couple of months, I only used it at 5-minute intervals, a few times a day (because my lifestyle had been completely sedentary for quite some time before purchasing this). As time went on, it became super easy to get a great workout done while watching TV. Now, I step for one consistent hour, 6 days a week. so it's definitely being used often. It's so convenient and there are no problems, thus far. Every single part of it works as it should. The step count is accurate. The resistance bands are a great addition to ensure a full body workout. It's very sturdy, yet lightweight and compact enough to put away after each use. The mini stepper does make little sound at the bottom of each step; however, it's not loud at all. Another bonus aside from getting my heart rate up, I've even lost some of the weight I've gained, without changing my diet. Just imagine the extra benefits if I start to eat more nutritious foods. Anyhow... being happily satisfied with this Niceday Twist Mini Stepper, I highly recommend that you go ahead and purchase it; it's very well worth it.

Let me start by saying, the customer service from Niceday was phenomenal! The stepper i received had little to no resistance. I reached out to the seller and got a message within 24 hours. I first spoke to Raven who asked me to upload a video and email it to them. They helped me with the process and it was painless. Next, Liza reached out and completed the process. Liza was awesome and expedited the shipping of a new stepper. My belief - anyone who says customer service isn't great, is absolutely trying to scam the company and get free merch. If they ask you to upload a video; upload the video! Explain what's going on. Customer service was tripping over themselves to accommodate! The stepper itself - fun and kinda addicting. The original i purchased lost tension within a minute of using. The replacement works great. Maybe not 30 minutes of tension but long enough for a fun cardio/leg exercise. It's not the gym, it's a great stress reliever and you can strengthen your legs. Final thought - customer service 5/5. Product 4/5. I'll buy again when I inevitably break/lose/give away this stepper.

full disclosure i am 5’3 and 325lbs so i was nervous about the 300lb weight limit but i just got this today and used it a bit and it feels very sturdy and stable, not wobbly or anything, i’m not concerned at all about it breaking under my weight. it’s also definitely a good workout, my legs were burning after just 5 minutes 👍

I’m very happy with this stepper. I don’t get much exercise outside of cleaning my own house. So I wanted something that could be easy and doable. This is perfect. I don’t go by minutes as I saw with most reviews. I go by steps. I can get about 200 steps done in 5 minutes and I do this 3-4 times a day. But I can feel the burn in my legs at the 2 minute mark and I have to push myself every time. But I love the steeper so far. It’s definitely worth the price. It worked right out of the box, except for putting on the resistance bands.it’s light weight so it can be moved easily. And it really seems like it’s built very well. I can see myself using this for many years. I can honestly say that I very mush recommend this stepper I’d give it 10 stars if I could. I leave mine out so that I see it at the end of my bed and every time I see it I usually get on it. It makes me feel like I’m getting a good workout every day. I love it.

Okay let me start by saying, this is a really good little stepper. I bought it a couple weeks ago and wanted to try it for a few weeks so I can give an honest, fair review. Comes put together. Only thing you have to assemble is the straps (super easy to clip on). Very stable (bought a different one before this one and it was soo wobbly and hard to stay on) I use it for about 30 minutes every day. By the end of my workout, I'm sweating and my legs are burning (in a good way) I've noticed my waist is slimming and my thighs are starting to tone. Great little stepper for the price. Now, the reason I'm giving it 3 stars is because it started being SO noisy a couple days ago randomly (I willl try to attach a video) . I've tried adjusting the height, moving it to a different place in my house but it's still so noisy. It wasn't like this the first 2 weeks I've used it so I'm not sure why it started making the loud noise. If you can get past the noise, it's a good little workout.

I don't know how this compares to cheaper steppers of the same sort of design but this is way overpriced. There's barely any resistance and it gets less as you go past 15 minutes and the hydraulics heat up. Not very effective and definitely not worth the price.

Love this little stepper, which has gotten me to exercise a lot more than before. It doesn't make a lot of noise when stepping on it, and I like that it's quite compact and can be tucked away in a small corner of my apartment without getting in the way. I use it on a carpet to minimize the noise, and the resistance bands are really useful to develop arm strength. I have size 8.5 feet and I have no issues using the stepper. As other reviewers have mentioned, the built in counter died on me within 3 weeks of use, but I use a different step counter on my phone to do my tracking so I'm not too bothered by it. I also bought the version that came with a mat, which is very thin and honestly not too impressive. Other than putting it under the stepper where I store it, I don't really use it. Get the one with the mat only if you don't have another mat or carpet you can put it on. But still giving this 5 stars because getting this stepper has been life changing for me.

This stepper is really good. I’ve had a regular stepper before but this one is just so much better with the twist. You can feel it in your legs and glutes. I really like the resistant bands and I also plan to use weights with it. Very happy!

The accessories were missing I don't want a refund but couldn't see from the options how to request the missing parts without doing a refund. Please contact me as I need assistance.
