Fuel Fitness FE46 Elliptical Trainer Review - An Affordable Choice for an Everyday Workout

Fuel products are a relatively new brand, currently offering two ellipticals and two treadmills, all for under $1,000. If you are you are in the market for a new elliptical machine that offers high quality at a remarkably low price, then the Fuel FE46 elliptical is what you want to look into.

The Fuel FE 46 has a 20" stride, which most people will find comfortable. The elliptical motion was relatively smooth for a budget elliptical, which can be attributable to the heavy 21 lbs. flywheel in the front. The pedals run on two rails in the back. The rails are circular, with a concave rubber wheel that runs along the rails. This is not always the most stable design, and can contribute to shifting right and left. However, the Fuel FE 46 did not appear to have any shifting. This kind of design is typical for sub $1,000 ellipticals with front drive.

The pedals on the Fuel FE 46, angle with the elliptical motion, which minimizes the stress from your foot lifting. However, they are not adjustable and the pedals are not cushioned; therefore, you want to make sure you are wearing comfortable shoes with good cushioning.

The Fuel FE46 is a very quiet elliptical machine. The console is very basic, with a single LCD window, with 14 workout programs to choose from.

You generally do not find a heart rate control on elliptical in this price range, but he Fuel FE46 is equipped with one and a heart rate strap. Two of the programs work in conjunction with the heart rate control.

The warranty on the Fuel FE 46 is fairly standard. You get lifetime on the magnetic brake and one-year parts and labor.

Overall, the Fuel FE 46 is a great machine for the price. It weighs in at around 180 lbs., so that contributes to the stability. The heart rate control is also an added bonus at this price. It is truly a great piece of equipment without breaking your bank account.
