Summary: Not a Gazelle or an XL Glider
Comment: I owned an XL Glider for five years and loved it. I got rid of my XL because after four years it started to make so much noise that it became annoying. The Air Walker is not the same as a Gazelle or an XL in two major ways.
1. The legs are not independent of each other; therefore, you are limited to one exercise. You are able to walk and run forward, but your gait will be limited because of the connection bar.

2. The Air Walker is not as substantial or as well built as the other gliders. If you go fast on the Walker, it bobs and lifts off the ground and the connection bar that limits your ability to do additional exercises becomes loose. The foot platforms feel flimsy and are uncomfortable. The platforms rest on bars that are about three inches thick. After a while, I felt as if I was standing directly on the bars. My feet hurt and I felt unstable.

Some other factors that made me not appreciate the Air Walker are:
1. It was time consuming to put together. You need two people to put it together and it took us an hour because all of the pieces didn't fit well together.

2. The electronic monitoring system didn't work well and ate a set of batteries every time I used it. It got to be so expensive, that we just left the monitoring unit off all together.

In conclusion, unless you have very limited space and/or a very limited budget, I would tell you to pass on the Air Walker and look into a Gazelle, XL Glider or even a treadmill. I paid about $60 with S&H for the Air Walker. I paid around $75 with S&H for my XL Glider five years ago. By the way, the Air Walker was quiet.
