I have a ProForm XP 160 elliptical. It's from the same company that owns Nordictrack. It's very sturdy. Holds up to 275 lbs. It counts calories burned, carbs burned, distance, etc. It has quite a few different workout programs and built in fan. There's more though. I can't remember everything off hand. I paid 700 for it, but that was about 3 years ago. An elliptical similar to this should run around 300-400. Proform.com usually runs specials each month, with free shipping as well.

Hello,

We have a precor elliptical machine. It cost around 4000 or so. The ramp goes up and down which my husband and I both love.

We use it mostly everyday between the two of us and have had it for about 3 years without any trouble.

We would buy it again.

I don't own one but the gym I go to has about 8 different kinds. I have tried all of them and some I hate and one I love. My advice it to try it out. If you are going to spend that kind of money you need to be real sure you like the one you get. All the ones at the gym are very nice and very expensive but I wouldn't give a dime for some of them.
