I bought the LTT because the price I found on the internet was much lower than what is on TV, only £29.99 plus £6 shipping fee. This price includes the machine and the power cords as well. But I am not too sure if what I bought is exactly the same as the one advertised on the TV. If you are thinking to buy one from internet with the price I paid, you may want to read this review.
Machine: 1. Colour I thought it will be entirely black, but it turned out to be black and blue. The two stands at the bottom are some kind of light blue. Personally it was not my favourite. But considering the price, I will live with it.
2. Set Up It is pretty easy to set up, just follow the instruction and anyone can do it. The only thing is when to start, you need to press on the pedal really hard to get it move which I was a bit worried at the time but turns out ok.
3. Speed control There are fast to slow controls. I found it is quite hard to move the control bar. Don't know if people have same feeling for the ones bought from TV sales. The Slowest level is very hard for me to do. I think maybe I am not fit enough to go on that level yet.
4. Usage As there is no handle, you may need something to hold on to start with. But it won't take few minutes for you to step on it freely. Just make sure you ware a pair of suitable trainers. The ones I used to ware were very sleepy on the pedal and it could be dangerous. By following the video, I found it is not hard to do at all. I am trying to do it every other day.
After I use it, I felt my muscle (or fat) around my hip and my legs are getting sour. I have been using it for about 2 weeks. No distinct result yet. But do feel good.
5. Video The video only about 10mins (includes the cool down, there is no warm up part)! It is not even enough for me to warm up! This is the worst part for my purchase. The other reviews said that they have about 1h Video from TV selling. I found video is very useful for doing exercise at home. To me, it feels just like there is a trainer which makes me have to finish it (but only 10mins, I have to re-play it)
6. Recipe There is also a copy of Recipe included as well. It gives you 14 days diet giudence. I didn't try it yet as by the look, I may need some more courage to start it. However, if you are determined to loose weight, they are pretty good. It shouldn't be very hard to follow and the food should be pretty nice. Some snack also allowed. :)
Overall, I am quite happy to have this machine but it will be better if the video could be longer. I think it will still be very nice if I can find the 1h video separately- if anyone can tell me where to find one?

Advantages: Smallish, relatively inexpensive and it works! Disadvantages: On its own it's no use for upper body and not good if you have back problems.
