1 Year Review of the $1500 Walmart Stair Climber (BalanceFrom/Signature Fitness)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июн 2024
- The BalanceFrom/Signature Fitness stair stepper aka. “The Walmart Stair Climber” is one of the cheapest stair machines on the market today. I’ve owned it now for over a year, using it 4-5 times every week, and it’s still going as strong as it was on day one. At the time of posting this video, it’s still sold and shipped via Walmart.com and now even Amazon, for approximately $1500. The price per functionality of the machine cannot be beat and I highly recommend this stair climber for anybody looking for a budget friendly cardio option for their home gym or light commercial setting.

Excellent review. Been wanting to see these in action.
Thank you! I hadn’t seen anybody else give a in depth review of this, especially not with a years worth of use to boot, so hoping it highlights this as a viable long term home gym cardio option.
Great video! This is definitely better than the stepr. You should also make a gym tour video btw - sick setup!
Thanks for the feedback!
Especially comparing the costs as of today, I don’t really see how STEPR would be a good option for most people. There will always be people who have the specific need for something small or technology forward, or might even prefer smaller steps.
I have had quite a few requests for a gym tour video, so will have to bump that higher on my filming priorities!
Great video. Me and the wife are building out the home gym and really want a stairmaster but couldn’t wrap our head around paying the steep prices of the stepr and other competitors. I think we will give this one a shot!
Thank you. And Yes for the price it really can’t be beat, especially adding the cheap warranty for the piece of mind - worst case solution they give you your money back or a replacement. But I’ve used mine a ton with no issues so have been overall very happy. Hope it goes well for you!
Do you think this would be appropriate for an apartment if you do not live on the first floor? Is it loud enough to be bothersome to the neighbor below?
Unfortunately, I don’t think you would be able to get it upstairs since it’s so heavy and awkward to carry, but as you mentioned, I would also imagine the stepping on the stairs at higher speeds of the stair climber would be loud enough for neighbors to hear. Not ridiculously loud but still probably loud enough.
Can you please link the exact lubricant you used and possibly upload a video on how you applied it?
Don’t think I can paste a link in the comments but from the Amazon product page - CRC Extreme Duty Open Gear & Chain Lube 03058
I literally just sprayed it on any visible parts of the chain I could between the stairs, the overspray made a huge mess all over the stairs for sure. Just kept rotating the stairs after a few sprays each side till the chain was fully lubricated (ish).
@@TheJungleGymRUclips Thank you! I also wanted to ask, how have you kept it looking brand new? Mine has scuff marks all over it but yours looks shiny and spotless. Did you clean it or polish it with anything?
I think the video camera makes mine look much better than it is! I wouldn’t say mine is scratched or dinged but when you see in person you can see it’s not spotless for sure, I definitely don’t do anything besides wipe it down with all purpose cleaner once every few months
Are the dimensions of the steps adequate? The depth of each step and rise is a bit smaller than the stairmaster.
Also, does it have a pause button?
The dimension are adequate, I am 6ft2, long legs and size 12 shoes and have no complaints. Unless someone told me, in a blind test I wouldn’t really notice comparatively
Yes, the play button is also the pause button, just not labeled as such.
