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
We got the Peloton a few months after the pandemic started. My wife absolutely loves it. With two young kids at home, it's especially important for her to get the convenience of a workout at home. She also loves the instructors and the variety of course content.
I will always love my peloton. Especially when on the go and I can access the app with literally anything I need. I would like to invest in the treadmill sometime soon.
Use my peloton app daily!!!

Great alternative to start and keep consistent. Peloton's instructors always so hyped during the classes, love it!
I am a huge fan of Peloton! It's really changed my relationship with health/wellness/fitness. I don't use the bike/tread equipment much, because I actually use the classes within the Peloton app more! Access to the app is 100% worth it, there is an incredible variety and I love all of the instructors. I've been consistent with it for over a year now, and it has really helped me incorporate more strength, meditation, and yoga into my daily routine. I feel like most people think of Peloton as just cycling classes but it's so much more than that! Highly recommend checking out all the classes on the app.

It's a shame what happened to Peloton during and after the pandemic, because they still make the best connected home fitness equipment out there. I definitely don't use my Bike+ the way I did when gyms were closed, but I still use it occasionally and rely on the Apple TV app for yoga. If I had more space, I'd definitely be interested in trying their rower.
I love my Peloton! The classes are an inspiration, and the music is always on point. Great instructors who talk you through the workout, which I find to be helpful. The layers of additional classes beyond spin are also well-built and I found them incredibly effective.

I love having a peleton, but I'll admit I only do the cycling rides. I haven't yet branched into the other offerings (yoga, pilates, stretching, etc) Everyone has the instructors they love –– Hanhah Corbin is my personal favorite, maybe cause her classes won't kill you, and she usually has fun music.

I think Peleton needs to get more creative about what you can watch when you're on the peleton. Find ways to incorporate shows while still riding, or let you choose a playlist.
love the bike and tread, great classes and instructors

do not like that you have to have a new membership if you have two bikes in the family.

The peloton bike was a hefty investment, and kind of bought it on a whim but I don't regret it! Ive had it about 8ish months, since then I have had ebbs and flows of using it daily and not using it for a couple weeks. What I like most about it is that really all it takes is the motivation to get on it, because once I've put my shoes on and am clipped in, I am unlikely to get out until I finished my class or what I set out to do. I appreciate the variety of classes, lengths, focuses, and the ability to just ride without a class and listen to a podcast.

I don't love having to pay the additional monthly fee on top of the price of the bike but in the grand scheme of things If I was working out at a gym, I would probably end up paying the same ammt.

My favorite part of Peloton is not the bike itself, it's all the amazing classes. I feel extremely attached to my strength, stretching, running, and yoga instructors (you know who you are!), and look forward to our daily hangouts. The instructors are never distracting in their commentary, only motivating and entertaining! I love the stacking option, and the expansion of new content areas like boxing!
Honestly, where would I be without my Peloton? Still waking up at 6 am to reserve a spot at the class at the gym, not exercising correctly, and certainly spending much more on workout clothes. Peloton changed the way I exercise and is worth every penny, especially if you're like me spending an insane amount per month on workout classes. It makes it easier to work out (you truly have no excuse, it's in your home!) with instructors who encourage you. I've been using Peloton for almost 2 years and the difference in my strength and overall health is insane!

More pilates classes
I love Peloton. Their classes are iconic and so fun, and the equipment just looks so much nicer than alternatives.
Big, big Peloton fan. I never thought I'd be able to get into at-home workouts, but I use the app to do rides, runs, yoga, and strength classes. I don't own any of the equipment, but have ridden on a friend's bike and would get one if I had the apartment space. I love the variety of workouts, instructor personalities, and moods/music.
Feedback
Considering how big of a company they are, there are a lot of things I think they could do to make the app experience more seamless.
I've had the Peloton for about two and a half years. I bought it with the hopes that it would force me to finally become regularly active, and it did exactly that. I'd never cycled before, but I've found it to be intuitive, challenging, and exactly what I needed to move the needle. The bike itself is well-made and resilient. The instructors and immense amount of content allow for a unique experience each time I ride.
Okay, I have a lot of mixed feelings about Peloton because I do really love using mine but I think the culture they promote is really toxic. They really encourage exercise addiction (which is a real thing!) which makes me really mad. It's all a part of diet culture.
I love the Peloton bike, as well as the app. I appreciate the variety of workout options, including those that vary by theme and skill level. I like that I can take the app with me on the go, and still complete workouts, even when I am not near a bike.

Interactive, customizable, engaging, motivating equipment tool this is a staple at home exercise machine you won’t need much and you can just stick to it and follow the motivating videos and you’ll be set to gain a sustainable workout routine
Peloton Bike offers an engaging and convenient workout experience, particularly suited for those who thrive in structured class environments and value community engagement. However, the high cost and ongoing subscription fees may be a consideration for some. Evaluating personal fitness goals and budget constraints is essential before making a decision.
This is a nice easy exercise activity to do at the comfort of your home. It’s easy to use, and I am able to use this stationary bike at least a few times a week. It is nice to work out with it and I like how I can track my progress over time.
