Best Ellipticals Under $1000 - Which One Should You Choose?

So there you have our picks for the best ellipticals in the $500-$1000 range for 2023. Any of these machines would make a great addition to your home gym, so you can't go wrong no matter which one you end up going with.

But just in case you need some help, here's a little guide to help you make a decision...

If you just want the best overall elliptical, i.e. the one that offers the most value and ticks the most boxes, go with our top recommendation, the ProForm Carbon EL. It gives you everything you need: diverse workouts, heart rate monitoring, incline capability, very low impact, natural motion and durable construction at a very affordable price.

If you want to save a little money, look at the Horizon 7.0AE which is a few hundred dollars less than the Sole E20, and doesn't sacrifice too much.

However, if you are looking for more bells and whistles, e.g. lots of workout programs, entertainment features, personal training, etc. then look at the Sole. They come with more extras than the Sole and Horizon ellipticals.

Keep in mind that you'll get a lot more as you approach $1000, so if you can stretch your budget to the top of the $500-$1000 range you'll find that these machines have more to offer.  

Either way, you'll get a lot more here than you do with ellipticals under $500, so you should be just fine in this price range.

If your budget is somewhat open, you might also want to take a look at the best machines from $1000 up to $2000, as that is where you will pretty much get all of the features you would want in a residential elliptical trainer.  

That is the high end of the non-commercial lineup, so it's the best that companies like NordicTrack, Sole and Horizon have to offer.

Again, choose the budget that works best for you and then select one of our top models...you'll be very happy with your purchase.
