Can anyone recommend a good recumbent exercise bike (make/model)? I've been research the different ones available and each time I think I've found the one I want, I'll find a bad review.

I have one.... forget the make or model but it was a cheapy thing. I don't use it all that often--maybe once a week for 20 minutes as a cross-training exercise. But for a cheap one it performs okay.

I own a fair amount of exercise equipment. My general advice regarding reviews: you're always going to find a bad review. Stick with a piece where the good outweighs the bad, and the bad are things that you can live with anyway (such as too loud). Avoid machines with bad reviews about things like quality, wobbling, breaking, etc.

Good luck!
