Advantages: Very easy to use, move around and store. Disadvantages: I'm sure there are better steppers but for a higher price.
Before I start describing the wonders and blunders of the vfit mini stepper I'd like to explain why I opted for this style of home gym equipment.

I live in a large block of flats in London, on the 7th floor with other people living below, above, each side and across the hall.
