Product Information

calories might not seem like a lot, but it's 500 more than I would've burned just sitting there doing nothing - and that equates to a guilt-free glass of wine on a Friday night, right?

On the lower resistance settings—the unit has eight—I could pretty much pedal nonstop while going about my day without distraction. The Cubii is an elliptical-style machine designed to fit under your desk and operated by pedaling with your feet. For example, I learned that tight jeans are too restrictive for pedaling and the fabric can chafe as your legs pump up and down. What’s more, built–in handle makes the Cubii Seated Elliptical Trainer easy to transport wherever you want to use it, around the house or in the office. This article provides a critical and firsthand review of the Cubii under-desk elliptical products, including their ease of use, user experience, product design, and effectiveness as a workout tool.QVC is not responsible for the availability, content, security, policies, or practices of the above referenced third-party linked sites, nor liable for statements, claims, opinions, or representations contained therein. While it’s true that using the Cubii does burn calories, which can support weight loss, the overall number of calories burned is likely insufficient for any real change in body composition. It's bulky, but it isn't tall; there was plenty of room under my desk (75cm height) for my legs to move around.

Comfortable and easy to use: Just set it in front of you chair or sofa, set the resistance level you want and start pedalling. Quick and easy to assemble, with eight resistance levels you can use the Cubii elliptical trainer while reading, knitting, browsing the web or watching TV, and with no motor to worry about you can peddle as fast or as slow as you want! Due to the angle at which your legs and feet fit into the pedals, the Cubii will primarily engage the muscles in your lower legs like your calves and tibialis anterior, which is the muscle that runs along your shin.Assembling the device was fairly straightforward and took less than 10 minutes, though you do need a screwdriver to install the pedals. Plus, several of the classes offered on the Cubii Studio+ app also use dumbbells or a resistance band, which may help make using the Cubii more of a full-body workout.

Here’s a quick look at how the Cubii JR2+ compares to the DeskCycle2 and FlexiSpot All-in-One Desk Bike.
