Perfect
By jbillieu (Indiana) on Nov 7, 2009
I love this elliptical. It combines the adjustable resistance with variable incline. I got mine in January of '09 and it is now November '09 and it is going strong. We use it daily and it is still quiet, and performing perfectly. I highly recommend it.

Very Smooth Workout
By Mitch (Texas) on Nov 13, 2009
The 990 Pro is so SMOOTH! I tried a few NordicTrack ellipticals at the store and you can definately tell this is top notch. It just feels more commercial with it's motion. I can't report yet on ifit live but the workouts on the machines are very good. The incline and resistance work me hard when I ... (Read more)

Better Flywheel
By Nate (Maryland) on Nov 13, 2009
When I was shopping I talked called NordicTrack and the rep told me one of the biggest changes on this machine is a new flywheel mechanism that is heavier so it feels like a gym elliptical. The guy said it's also more durable and quieter. So far virtualy no noise and I can vouch for the gym feel. No... (Read more)

Issues right out of the box.
By gwapo-gorilla (Maquoketa, Iowa) on Nov 25, 2009
I just bought my 990Pro on 11/22/09, and it has issues already...right out of the box. The heart rate sencors in the handles are bad. When holding them, the display gives me a heart rate of 188, even when I am well rested! So, about 1/3rd of the programs on the machine can't be used. I expect more t... (Read more)

Exactly what was wanted!
By Rich (Eldridge, IA) on Dec 15, 2009
Product arrived in great shape, did not take too long to put together (2 hours or so). plenty of options on workouts to choose from, looking into getting Ifit products. The only issue I have had is the Grafixx Display. It had to be reordered as it has operational issues.

Couldn't ask for more
By Lisa (Georgia) on Dec 31, 2009
I used to have a gym membership and just used ellipticals so I decided to buy my own machine and save some time. the 990 Pro may not be quite as heavy duty as the $4000.00 ellipticals the gym had but it's very well made. It has a very fluid motion and it's nearly silent while I use it even when I'm ... (Read more)

This is a GREAT elliptical! Buy it!
By MichelleH45 (Durham, NC) on Jan 9, 2010
This elliptical is very, very solid and when you're on it, it feels like an elliptical that costs MUCH more. It has a lot of features that are usually only available on models that cost a LOT more, like LOTS of different pre-programmed workouts, iFit Live, speakers to play your iPod through, and a ...

Great for the money!
By bigphatcatlover (Los Angeles, CA) on Jan 11, 2010
There are pros & cons to the 990 Pro by NordicTrack.
Pros: This elliptical was my third choice, but ultimately I had to stick within a budget of under $1000. For the money, it's a great machine; It's smooth, solid and very quiet; It's a better workout than the treadmill without the impact; It has ... (Read more)

love my audiostrider 990
By Stan (Goldsboro NC) on Jan 15, 2010
I love this machine, the ride is the smoothest Iv'e felt on any machine in this price range and I test many before buying. Assembly took about a hour quite simple actually. The Jillian Michael workouts are great and challenging although her constant talking is bit much at times. I wish it had a mut... (Read more)

Smooth and quiet
By Katie (Northern CA) on Feb 15, 2010
I researched several brands and ultimately chose the audiostrider 990 pro based on overall features and price.
The power incline really works your muscles. Overall the elliptical is very quiet and smooth. The fan is a definite plus.
Although I would have preferred a docking station, I like t... (Read more)

It's awesome, I love ifit live
By Cathy (Cuepertino, Ca) on Feb 16, 2010
This product is awesome. We bought it from Sears and had it installed and delivered yesterday. I bought the ifit module and was able to set it up in about half an hour. It was able to access internet and then we had to connect it to the machine and let the firmware update happen. That took 2 hours. ... (Read more)

So far...awesome!
By Fatboy! (New Bern, NC) on Feb 28, 2010
Pretty much everything I read about this product was right on. Shipping was great, and at my house in 6 days! I was contacted by a service rep within 1 hour of placing my order online, to confirm my order.
Assembly was pretty much straight forward, and if you go step by step, there will be minimal ... (Read more)

Love my Autostrider!
By Violet (San Francisco, CA) on Mar 6, 2010
I received and assembled my new Autostrider two weeks ago. It was easy to put together and didn't really need a second person to help for longer than 5 minutes. It is very silent with the occasional light thumping. It doesn't always make it, and I haven't figured out what causes it. The built-in wor... (Read more)

Upgraded my Second Gen Nordic Eliptical
By E! (Exeter, NH) on Mar 11, 2010
I've owned a second generation Nordic Eliptical for 10 years. It was by far basic. Computer, input age/weight etc, with the heartbeat ear clip. For 10 years I enjoyed this piece of equipment until I started hearing a squealing noise. Unfortunately Nordic told me the bearings were failing and it ... (Read more)

Great as long as you don't have to order parts.
By Jake20 (FL) on Mar 22, 2010
Its been about a month since I ordered my 990 pro.. So far its been very good. I do get a knock coming from the back somewhere every so often, but its not consistent, and for the most part its pretty silent.
One of the big round discs on the back flywheel seems to be a little warped and doesn't s... (Read more)

Nice elliptical, but could be better.
By Dana (Cleveland) on Mar 30, 2010
I used the Audiostrider 990 Pro for 60 days for no less than 30 minutes daily. It's a solid elliptical that gets the job done. By changing my eating habits and exercising daily I have gone from 193 lbs to 165 lbs in the last 90 days. I am happy with the results of using my 990 Pro. With that said I ... (Read more)

Great Machine
By notsobiganymore (Anson, TX) on Apr 9, 2010
I bought this about 4 months ago and am extremely pleased with it. It took my son and I about an hour to assemble. It is quiet, smooth,stable and just what I was looking for. My wife thought it was big. I told her she could choose between that being big or me being big. She can live with that! ... (Read more)

Awesome Machine
By Eddie Munster (San Diego, CA) on Apr 14, 2010
This machine Rocks! I worked it and it purred like a kitten. The machine feels solid and gym quality. It worked me out and it is by far the best machine for home use I have tried.
It does take some time to assemble, however you get to know the machine and its grease points which will help yo... (Read more)

Room for Improvement
By Sarah (Columbus, IN) on Apr 16, 2010
I purchased this in January and have logged over 1700 min.
The over all mechanics of this machine are very nice. It's smooth, easy to use, and the power incline ramp is awesome. The only complaints I have are the heart rate grips are pointless and don't work and the computer system is horrible. F... (Read more)
