When searching for the perfect elliptical trainer, here are a few from the Vision line worth considering.

Traditional Ellipticals: Vision’s traditional machines provide a low-impact workout with cutting edge features. You will enjoy the smooth, natural motion of the traditional elliptical. These are also the most affordable models available from Vision. One of the things that makes the traditional ellipticals so endearing is that include a choice of a variety of consoles. For example, the Vision X20 elliptical comes with either a Classic, Elegant or Touch console (these range from excellent basic features to a 10″ HD touch screen with all the bells and whistles you could ask for).

Suspension Ellipticals: Vision was the first to roll out suspension ellipticals and they are still considered to be among the best. They offer a smooth and stable ride thanks to the innovative suspension design. These machines come with a variable strides and inclines, along with an extra heavy flywheel to ensure smoothness. Try the Vision S7200 elliptical machine, one of their latest suspension elliptical trainers that receives rave reviews from users.
