Is this the best price?

The mid priced Nautilus E514c Elliptical Trainer is a solid contender in mid priced level elliptical machines. The E514c model can be used in your home gym and for fitness enthusiasts of any skill level who want a low impact workout. It is a medium duty machine, capable of handling user weight up to 300 pounds. The Nautilus E514c Elliptical Trainer provides an effective cardiovascular workout by combining upper and lower body flexibility and coordination into one impact-free motion and is easier on your joints. Regular use on elliptical trainers will increase heart and lung capacity while improving your health and burning calories. The E514c uses 16 levels of Magnetic Brake resistance using an eddy current brake (the best type). Magnetic resistance has the advantage of no friction, reliability, little to no maintenance costs, and quiet operation. A 17.6 lb. flywheel provides for smoother strides. Rubberized footpads make workouts more comfortable. 6 integrated levelers for a solid workout platform. Static & moving handlebars for a full workout.
