The Spirit XE200 is built to last and normally requires little, if any, maintenance. It also has great warranties to back it up. It would be a good machine to own.
the Spirit XE200 is a durable, well-built machine (Both are built by Dyaco.) Even Spirit Fitness feels confident about the quality of this product. As proof, the XE200 is backed by a 10-year warranty on its parts and a lifetime warranty on its frame and resistance brake! I don’t think you’ll find a better warranty on an elliptical trainer! This is equivalent to some of the higher price units you would find with Life Fitness.
Additionally, the Spirit® XE200 Elliptical Trainer offers both contact and telemetry heart rate monitoring, a backlit tri-color LCD screen as well as cooling fans and a water bottle holder. Specifications
