This is a "junk item" that is currently not usable as intended. It is a top-of-the-line professional stepper from Xiser in the USA. Although it is normally a lifelong training machine boasting extremely high durability and quiet operation, it is being sold "as is," with the understanding that it is for parts or for repair/maintenance by the buyer. [Product Condition] - Overall: There are signs of use, including minor scuffs from normal use, dullness on metal parts, and paint peeling. - Operation: The hydraulic cylinder does not function properly, or does not apply resistance, making it unusable for exercise. - Parts: The frame itself is made of sturdy cast aluminum and shows no noticeable distortion. *Perceptions of product condition may vary among individuals. Please review the images before purchasing. If you have any concerns, we can provide additional photos.
