The Lifecore LC985VG, LC1000z, and the LC2000 provide a needed niche in the elliptical market. They are small compact ellipticals with good quality. They are also overpriced, but you can't have everything I guess. If you are needing a compact elliptical due to space considerations, Lifecore is practically the only company that can get you what you need without the machine falling apart.
