They are saying this machine MSRP is $399.99. at a almost 50 percent discount for a light weight flywheel means it's just and inflated MSRP which is sketchy IMO.
The magnetic flywheel is what causes the tension while using the machine. It is an extremely important aspect of the machine and a cost factor. For a $400 machine, it should have at least a 15lbs flyweight, not a 6.6 budget flywheel.

Let me explain further, the magnetic flywheel is an important aspect in the cost of a machine. Larger flywheel designs generally need to have a sturdier base than those with lighter because it provides more tension. For $399.99 MSRP, cut down to $200 it's a gimmick.
Skip the Cursor $200 "Deal" – Get the XVGVSV W239 for $170 instead. Noise Level: Ultra-silent 15 dB (vs. Cursor's louder 25 dB). Capacity: True 400 lbs manual rating (vs. Cursor's inflated 300–350 lbs). Total Weight: 66 lbs of denser steel (vs. Cursor's lighter 62.8 lbs). Crank: Durable 2-piece steel crank (vs. Cursor's cheap 1-piece rod that clicks under load). Power: 100% battery-powered console (vs. Cursor requiring a wall plug adapter). The XVGVSV is superior, sturdier, and quieter buy for less money and doesn't try and gimmick you into thinking it's a $400 machine.
Plus the reviews are verified non Vine reviews and 4.7 with over 1k total. The cursor has 50 reviews.
