Sunny Health & Fitness Magnetic Recumbent Bike Exercise

Se lo compre para que mi Madre hiciera ejercicio en casa (pensionada), es cmoda y resistente, el armado es fcil. Es un aparato prctico para hacer cardio ligero a regular. Aconsejo que lo coloquen en un lugar con espacio suficiente para subir y bajar de l para evitar accidentes.

So far (after 2 months of use) we like this bike. It does have a place to hold a smart phone if you want to watch or listen to something. It does not have a place to hold a book or magazine if you want to read. The pedal action is very smooth. The pedals are too small for me to wear my shoes so I have to pedal in my stocking feet. Also, the straps that are supposed to hod feet to pedals are too small, so we took them off, but I would prefer to have some good-fitting, easily adjustable straps.
It is not perfect, but it does what we want, so far.

Everything went well. Follow the instructions and unpack by turning box upside down, open flaps and then turn back over and lift up box. Bolts, etc. are packed in very easy to read package. When doing the step to connect the tension and cable, these are stuffed into the pipe (see picture) and you need to fish them out with something like a hook. I read complaints about the computer connection and blocking holes/battery compartment but it was perfect from the picture. Overall, going slowly, it took about 1 hr 15 mins. I bought the 2 year warranty just in case something breaks.
Pro-tip: If you have tools, a nice screwdriver and rachet set makes it a little easier. And don’t overtighten.

I am a 64 yr-old female, recovering from a total knee replacement and I was advised to look at this product as an aid to my recovery. I was told it was easy to assemble – “just a couple of bolts”. When it arrived in a large box, I was somewhat intimidated and had to unpack the box in my garage and carry the parts inside to lighten the load. The packing was impressive, and even though it was obvious that the heavy box had been banged around during shipment, nothing inside was damaged. There were many more parts than I expected, but the instruction manual was very well-written. I am not mechanically inclined, so I managed to have to repeat a couple of steps because I did them incorrectly, but that was my fault. At one point, I got stumped and called their customer service line, which connected me to a rep (Laura) who understood my problem as I described it in the clumsiest of terms. She sent me a YouTube video on how to assemble the product, which was extremely helpful for this visual learner. I finished the job and am extremely impressed at the quality of the product and the number of features it has for the money spent. Take that, Pelaton!

This is a good machine and I would buy it again. It could use some improvements in the instructions and hardware. These notes are for the manufacturer as well as potential buyers.
Sunny makes great assembly videos, but there is not currently a video for the SF-RB4616S. I used the video for the SF-RB4616 (no S at the end) and had to disassemble everything and start over. The manual is very clear though and easy to follow. Unfortunately, there are no instructions for the peddle straps and they are not intuitive.
The bolts are well organized and assigned an instruction step they are to be used for. This is very helpful, though they forgot to label step 3. Step 3 also says to use an Allen wrench when a Phillips screwdriver is needed.
The instructions tell you to install the batteries after the machine is together. They should be installed prior to installing the computer. I had to remove a couple of screws to remove the battery cover.
The function labels on the computer are too small to read, though the functions themselves are easy to read. For example, you can easily read the speed, but you can’t read the label that reads “SPEED.”
All these are very minor. It is an excellent machine and not difficult to assemble. Easily five stars for the price.

A family member recovering from knee replacement surgery, was told by a physical therapist to start using an exercise bike. This SUNNY product was selected based on the thought that it would be a short term need and no desire to speed hundreds of dollars on a machine. After reading all the reviews and trying to sift through real and phony, the SUNNY was our choice.

Assembly was about one hour. The step by step instructions/diagrams matched the blister packed hardware identified in groups for each step of the way. There were no surprises regarding ease of assembly. Hand wrenches were provided, although I preferred to use my own wrenches providing more torque and easier use. The only snag was the fact the tension control cable and the electronic pulse cable had dropped down into the tubular frame, requiring a long metal rod with a curved hook on the end to retrieve and pull it to the top of the tube for connection to the mating cables.

Everything worked as claimed. The main frame seems sturdy, but the computer housing is plasticky, the padding on the seat and backrest is minimal and is stretched and stapled on the support boards. I would guess these items will show the most wear the fastest. This is probably a product that will last a couple of years or so without issues, provided it is stored properly and not abused.

If you are inclined to return a product for exchange or refund, for whatever reason, be forewarned that all the bits and pieces are packed in and around the mainframe for shipment. Follow the unpacking instructions printed on the outside of the shipping container and fully photograph both sides of the styrofoam enclosures before taking everything out for assembly. Otherwise, it will be a nightmare to guess what goes where.

Easy to assemble. Display easy to read. Comfortable seat and back support. Using daily, no problems found.

The bike was delivered 2 days early, so that was nice. Assembly was easy. I appreciated the fact that the bolts and washers were packaged separately in clear plastic bags labeled by assembly steps – all the bolts needed for step 1 were in one bag, step 2 bolts were in one bag, etc. So you won’t be looking through one bag for 4 bolts you need might need for an assembly step. Assembly tools are included. Connecting the wiring and resistance cable was also easy. Although the wires are not marked or color coded, they each have a different appearance are are easy to match. The bike is amazingly quiet. There is a difference in the resistance settings and you can feel the increase with every level. The seat is fairly comfortable and the back is at a good angle. I am 5’4″ and I keep the seat almost half way up the adjustment bar. This bike can accommodate someone under 5 ” – probably about 4’8″ and also someone who about 6’2″. The bike is very easy to move around and easily fits through a standard indoor door. The flywheel is fairly light compared to an upright. When you stop pedaling, the flywheel stops – no brake needed. You can pedal backwards. The only problems I have encountered with this bike are that, while putting it together, the seat assembly could not be bolted to the bike because the pre-drilled holes were not lined up. We were able to drill out the holes to make them fit. The other issue is that some of the computer read outs don’t seem to be correct. The mileage and speed seem high. There is no cup holder or shelf for a tablet/phone, which would be nice. I am a walker but there are days I can’t get outside (too cold, raining, windy, etc) and I needed something I could do inside. I hate walking on a treadmill but this bike is perfect for those indoor days. Don’t expect the quality of a Peleton. But it’s a good buy for the money.

Great quality, great value, would buy again for my next knee replacement!!

Some scratches on metal work and some parts look cheap otherwise works well for the price.
Thankyou to the lovely amazon guy who delivered and lifted this into the house for me.

Fairly easy to put together as all parts in numbered pouches in order of assembly. Recumbent seat makes it more comfortable than traditional exercise bikes.

Took my husband about an hour to put together but it was fairly straightforward. The bike it’s self is great, it’s easy to use and quite comfortable.

Took me just over 30 mins to construct instructions clear and put into stages each stage had a separate bag of bolts nuts etc. Very easy only had a slight problem with the seat handle getting bolts into the bar on the seat. But the rest was easy and did all by myself. The exercise bike is easy to ride and comfortable but the seat can get a little hard after a while, but well constructed and easy to construct.

I always wanted an exercise bike that didn’t hurt me in the seat area and this baby is the answer to my prayers. It’s so comfortable to ride, very sturdy, quiet and has good resistance enabling me to get a really good workout on it every day. At the price and payment plan available, you can’t beat it.

My favourite thing about this particular bike is that you’re able to adjust the seat while you’re sitting on it, so you can get the exact positioning you need according to your leg length. Other, more expensive recumbent bikes don’t have this feature, which makes adjusting the seat a pain in the bum. I’m so glad I bought this and I highly recommend it to anyone who finds traditional bike seats painful to sit on.

The goods arrived in time space given. The instructions were clear. I am so pleased with this product and would definitely recommend it. It’s comfortable and almost silent when in use. A very satisfied customer. Thank you.

Me and my father were looking for a simple but sturdy bike for him and this was exactly what we were hoping for. Assembly was also rather simple. My father uses the bike every day now. Good for the money.
