About Marcy Recumbent Exercise Bike ME-709
Overall Feedback:
74% positive
85% found the adjustable features very convenient, but 15% had difficulty making adjustments
The seat adjuster is difficult to use and located on the floor, making it hard to adjust while sitting on the bike.
While seated, the bike is not adjustable.
This bike has a flaw of not being adjustable, which is not documented in the sales literature.
86% appreciated the clear display and accurate tracking, but 14% experienced errors
I like the display of the stationary bike as it provides necessary information to stay on a routine that is good for me.
I suggest lowering the display towards the pedals to avoid obstruction of view.
The LCD display is not working as expected. It only shows Total Time, Steps, Calories, and Total Steps, but the display program does not match the wording.
88% found the assembly easy, but 12% experienced difficulties
It was easy for me to assemble with just a little help holding the top part while connecting the computer wires.
Assembling was straightforward and took less than 30 minutes. All the parts were there and fit together perfectly.
I had no issues with the assembly until I tried to connect the magnetic tension, but I couldn't complete it as per the instruction diagram.
86% liked the quiet operation, but 14% found it too loud
I tested the product and found that the mechanism is quiet from its lowest setting to the highest.
When I first rode the bike, it was quiet and did not wobble or squeak.
The bike is extremely quiet, and I can watch TV while using it without disturbing anyone.
When sitting around, the bike makes a lot of noise. It is small and budget-friendly.

84% praised the smooth and quiet pedaling, while 16% experienced rough pedaling
I faced an issue with one of the pedals not screwing in properly, but the company quickly replaced it.
I am returning the product for the 2nd time because the pedals are of poor quality.
I find it challenging to achieve a high-intensity ride due to the awkward position caused by the seat and pedals.
I was unable to disassemble the pedal, but applying some light oil to the crease between the axle and the pedal body seemed to solve the issue for now.

87% liked the compact design, but 13% found it too bulky
The bike has a large and comfortable seat and backrest, is strongly made, and can hold 300 lbs.
The stationary bike is longer than my couch and would be even longer if I sat up as a tall person.
90% appreciated the high weight capacity
The seat of my bike comfortably supports my current weight of 310lb.
I need a bike that can hold my husband's weight of 272 pounds, but most bikes have a weight limit of up to 250 pounds.
