Tunturi C30 Crosstrainer Review

Tunturi is a Scandinavian company that has eight different elliptical machines in their catalog. The Tunturi C30 Crosstrainer comes after the entry level Tunturi C10 Elliptical Trainer, it adds some features and keeps all the basic good features from the other models.

It can be hard to understand for Americans since it was built with all that is good about Scandinavian design and engineering, which may seem superficial at first sight, like providing feedback on the current time and humidity. Even so, it is easy and simple to use and can be an affordable option for a newcomer to elliptical trainers.tunturic30crosstrainer

Compact and basic

You can try to look for them, but most of the extras that you would find in a common elliptical trainer built by an American company have been left out and are nowhere to be seen in the Tunturi C30 Crosstrainer. It is basic and yet one of the most efficient and affordable machine that you can find, and with all the necessary features for a great workout.

Here is where the fairy tale ends, after you buy this remarkable machine there will be problems with some of the components and unusual sounds will start to come out from the Tunturi C30 Crosstrainer. Even if the warranty will cover it, since it is a great warranty for its price range, the thing is that it will be hard for you to get new parts, repair it or replace the Tunturi C30 Crosstrainer.

One little detail is that you have to be watchful about is the stride length that Tunturi seems to have forgotten to put on their literature about the product, either it fits everyone, which is highly doubtful and impossible, or is tiny and will be uncomfortable for most users that would try it. So, be warned and research a bit more about this detail.

So, Tunturi did built a good machine, and some of the upper level models are great compared to the Tunturi C30 Crosstrainer, the catch here is that they tried to take away all they could from this one to make it affordable and ended up ruining it in the quality side. It will eventually break and the great warranty is wasted by a poor customer service.
