Peloton wins praise in reviews for motivating, studio-caliber classes, engaging instructors (Cody Rigsby, Alex Toussaint, Robin Arzón), seamless app breadth, and sturdy, smooth hardware that makes at‑home workouts convenient and habit‑forming; however, recurring membership costs are widely criticized, the bike seat comfort and occasional hardware maintenance issues recur, and some find the experience overrated or less effective than live classes. Overall, Peloton is good if you’ll use it consistently and value variety and community, but buyers should weigh subscription demands and ergonomics.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
My peloton has been great for me because I do not enjoy working out in front of others. I receive the benefit of taking a spin class without having to actually go to a gym. I can also workout in my home on my own schedule. I just wish that if you buy a bike you received a discount on the membership because $44 a month isn't much cheaper now than a traditional gym.
My best friend bought into this... (lol -- cult). All she does is complain about the cost of the subscription, the cost of the bike, and the fact that she is literally "butt hurt" after about a half hour on the bike. Her husband jokingly calls it a clothes rack. I've tried her bike, and the seat is uber uncomfortable, and I find it really doesn't offer a superior level of exercise equipment compared to much cheaper bikes on the market. If you are someone that needs perpetual coaching and can't stick to goals by yourself, then this might be your answer. During Covid, this would have definitely been your answer, but now that we are past the pandemic, just go to a gym or the YMCA -- it's much cheaper.
I have had a Peloton for a few years! It’s a great investment so easy to workout at my house
To be honest, I wouldn’t have ran 3 marathons if it wasn’t for peloton. Their outdoor runs turned me into a runner and their stretches and mobility classes keep me accountable to take care of myself. I love my bike but don’t even use it as much as I’d like because of running
I love my Peloton Tread+ sooo much that I got the Peloton Bike + too. My gym feels complete with both of these. The classes are great, with very diverse options you won't get bored, but crave your next session.

Love using Peloton. They have a variety of levels, class types, and length of classes so you can make it work for your schedule / hardness level. Jess Sims is my all time fav!
the best workout app on the market, from and ex group fitness instructor
This is the best thing that can happen to you. I have been using pelaton for about a year now. I can’t imagine my everyday life without pelaton. The crew is amazing and variety of classes is huge.
I got a peloton at the height of the pandemic since we were unable to go to the gym. I was very into it for the first few months and then my interest faded. I would say overall its a fine purchase and worked well but now that the pandemic is under control I dont really think its worth the cost if you can go to a gym. Also I think its bonkers that they make you pay a monthly subscription fee on top of the purchase of the bike. I think if you dont have the equipment then you should be required to pay the fee but if you spend over $1000 on the equipment the membership should be included. Feels like a bit of a rip off as is.
Best purchase! Use it everyday. So many options and great instructors to keep you motivated!
I have been using the peloton app since 2020 during the pandemic. The bike was out of my price range so I ended up purchasing a cheaper stationary bike and use the app for my guidance. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the range of instructors and class types. My favorite instructors are Tunde, Calley and Jess Sims! But honestly all of their instructors are great. I wish I would have saved up and purchased the peloton bike initially but I will continue to use the app!
Great product overall. Very impressed with our peloton.

I was a digital app user and not a bike owner, but I would still wholeheartedly recommend Peloton to anyone looking for an accessible, customizable fitness experience. Pick from a variety of class types, lengths, instructors, focuses, etc. to tailor your custom workout. Only have 5 minutes? Do a quick stretch or meditation. 10 minutes between meetings? Get in an arms workout. Ready for a full burn? Do an hour long spin ride, run or walk, or strength workout. Easy to do at home with minimal equipment, and great classes with awesome music.
I loveeee the peloton. I don’t own one, but try to use one whenever I can. The most convenient cardio workout and so much better than running. Classes are fun and instructors are great!

Love my peloton and the instructors are very engaging. The monthly membership keeps rising so I’ll take off a star for that.

I’ve only used the app with my bike. I love the instructors and the music. My brother stole my bike from my parent’s house (😂) so I just haven’t used it in awhile but I plan to get the Peloton bike and treat at some point.

My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)
I wish they would have tell you the live classes were not part of the peleton deal. I was kind of disappointed. I used the live classes though, it is fantastic however if you dont use it with your family its not sufficient to justify the price.
I am part of the cult. Love the bike. Love the app.
I've had my Peloton for a few years now and use it almost everyday. I love the variety of workouts-it's not just cycling. Their activewear is high quality too.
