As an owner of the Peloton Tread, the Guide seemed a no-brainer. I’m already paying the monthly membership which includes the Guide content and so I saw this as a way of maximising the value of my membership (it also helped that the guide was on offer for 175).
Initial out-of-box impressions of the build quality were very good – this thing’s no Meta Portal, it’s wonderfully boxed, it’s hefty and solid, rubberised at points, has a lovely material finish around the outside. It’s a premium product. If I had any criticism, it’s that the controller buttons are a little squishy for my liking and that it’s clearly not designed to sit on-top of your TV but at the base only.
After seeing YouTube reviews from 2022/23, I wasn’t sure what to expect, most criticised were the setup process and the accuracy of the rep counting. I’m happy to report that the setup process was as smooth as butter and clearly updated/improved from the process reviewed in 22. Neither me nor my partner had any initial confusion in how to use the device and it was all fairly straight forward. The process took around 10-15 minutes, most of which was waiting for the initial updates to download and install.
I am also yet to run into any issues with rep counting. During one exercise I wasn’t paying attention and kept doing the prior movements, it immediately stopped counting reps until I corrected myself and in another instance, I was performing the right exercise but with the wrong leg motions and it had no problem picking up on this either. I did find it a little slow to respond to me no-longer performing planks, but respond it did. I have yet to try with weights.
I’ve found the class experience really satisfying, all the information I want to see is present (what’s coming up, heart rate zones, calories burned, reps etc) and the classes are easy to follow and engaging. I especially find it helpful when instructors prepare you for what’s to come during your cooldowns as I’m unfamiliar with some of the exercises. Features like auto-planning and stacking actually make a lot more sense on the Guide than the Tread too – put another way, there are some features on the Tread that don’t seem specifically designed for treadmill use, but that wasn’t the case at all on the guide.
Top-notch product – I’m impressed.
I noted the 1 star review from Brett24242 – they’re indeed correct in that you’re only allowed one Peloton Guide per membership, but I wished to clarify that you can have one of every Peloton device per membership (so for 39 a month you receive a full family membership covering the Tread, Bike and Guide) and that a Guide membership on its own would cost 24 not 39.
Things from my setup that may help anyone having issues:
– I’m wearing black contrasting gym gear.
– The room is well lit.
– There’s just a plain white sofa in my background.
– I’m fairly up close (I think more than I’m supposed to be).
– I’m using the camera from my TV stand, not on-top of the TV (it warns you if your angle is too steep, however).
– I have the camera facing me directly, even though it means it and me are slightly off-angle to the TV.
Dies war ein UK Import fr mich, ich glaube Peloton bietet das Gert noch nicht offiziell in Deutschland an. Aber es funktioniert und ist sogar wenn auch etwas mangelhaft lokalisiert mit deutschen Texten.
Trotz des krzlich erfolgten Preisnachlasses von 300$ auf 200$, der sich auch im Euro Preis zeigt, war ich skeptisch, ob dieses Gert seinen Preis rechtfertigt, da ich auch ganz zufrieden damit war, meine Peloton Trainings, die ich nicht auf dem Bike verbrachte, per Smartphone an den Fernseher zu bermitteln. Oder die App des Smart TV zu verwenden.
Ich war dann berrascht, wie gut es mir gefallen hat verglichen mit diesen Optionen.
Die Verarbeitung und Usability ist auf Apple Niveau, und der Mehrwert der Kamera und der Trainings, die diese untersttzen, motiviert mich tatschlich noch etwas mehr zu Peloton Trainings in meinem Wohnzimmer vor dem Fernseher.
Der mitgelieferte Netzadapter ist leider jener der UK Version, der Stecker passt nicht in deutsche Steckdosen, stattdessen konnte ich mein iPad Ladegert verwenden – welches ebenfalls 5 Volt/3 Ampere liefert mit USB C Anschluss.
Arrived very quickly in a huge box. This was a gift so I cannot say whether it was good but the recipient was very happy.
Efficient and motivating strength training at home. Camera tracks your movements and reps. Seeing yourself while training (mirror like). Body Activity is tracked for a balanced training. Big time and cost saving when training at home.
