I've seen the infomercials and it just looks like it is not made very well.

And it isn't very versatile for anything else..limited use.

found this online-
[There are a number of complaints which I want to summarize here:

1. The knee cushions aren't that comfortable
2. The machine is breakable
3. There is a weight limit for this machine so if you're really heavy, this isn't for you
4. You get more strain on your arms then in your abs
5. The resistance isn't that great. You can't really get an intensive workout out of it.]

I sure would NOT pay 200.00 for something like this.
